Janacek from the pianist's perspective: a prescriptive analysis of on an overgrown path, the sonata 1.X.1905, and in the mists
| Title: | Janacek from the pianist's perspective: a prescriptive analysis of on an overgrown path, the sonata 1.X.1905, and in the mists |
| Author: | Lee, Jennifer |
| Description: | Leoš Janáček is considered to be one of the great Czech composers of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Although he is recognized as one of the definitive composers of twentieth-century opera, his piano compositions are comparatively obscure and rarely discussed in the keyboard literature, despite their remarkable musical and dramatic expression. This document conducts a stylistic and pianistic analysis of Janáčeks three major piano works, On the Overgrown Paths, Sonata 1.X.1905 and In the Mists in terms of form, melody, harmony, rhythm, texture, pedaling, tone color and the other terms. This analysis yields a deeper understanding of the musical style Janáček dictated for the pianist.
