Music Denisov serial saxophone interpretation analysis sonata This document presents analyses and interpretive guides for the Sonata for Alto Saxophone and Piano, Deux Pieces, and the Sonata for Alto Saxophone and Cello, three saxophone works by Edison Denisov, exploring formal design and serial techniques. Denisov occupies an important position in the history of the saxophone. He promoted awareness of extended techniques and serial language through his Sonata for Alto Saxophone and Piano, a landmark work for the instrument. While most saxophonists realize that this work is serial, and many can even identify the row, by itself this information provides little aid to the interpreter. This document is intended to help illuminate the essential elements of Denisov's musical language, particularly its serial aspects, so that the performer can better understand it and achieve a more satisfactory and meaningful interpretation of his works. 2013 English text University of Cincinnati / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ucin1384427385 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ucin1384427385 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: some rights reserved.
