Resumen: Tesis de University of Michigan.
Three violin recitals were given in lieu of a written dissertation. The selections in these recitals explore the violin’s versatility. The first recital Wonder Women: Works by Female Composers was comprised of works by Louise Farrenc, Lili Boulanger, Augusta Read Thomas, Chihchun Chi-sun Lee, and Ruth Crawford Seeger. Farrenc and Boulanger exemplified the most traditional treatment of the violin, Seeger pushed the technical limits of the violin with her quartet, Augusta Read Thomas used the violin as a mouthpiece for Incantation, and Chihchun Chi-sun Lee used the violin to emulate a Chinese erhu. The Italian Baroque: Music from Virtuosi was performed on period instruments (baroque violin), with additional performers playing baroque cello and harpsichord. This recital highlighted the technical advances made by virtuoso violinists in eighteenth century Italy and explored the differences between modern and historic performance practice. This program also included Sonata no. 1 op. 1 for Violin and Basso continuo by underrepresented composer Domenico Ferrari, a popular performer and composer during his lifetime and a student of Giuseppe Tartini. The final recital, Folk Revival: Compositions Inspired by American and Irish Traditional Music, contains pieces inspired by fiddle and jazz traditions. The traditional music is present in varying degrees in each of these pieces—Rebecca Clarke simply arranges Irish folk songs for voice and violin; Evan Chambers writes a modern take on an Irish reel; Kenji Bunch writes new melodic material inspired by different American music traditions, and Maurice Ravel uses American jazz as the basis for the “Blues” movement of his sonata (while keeping the remaining two movements in his typical idiom).
