1 TRANSCENDENCE TOWARD PARADISE Amy M. Bell A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College o Bowling Green State University in artial ulillment o the requirements or the degree o MASTER OF MUSIC August 2007 Committee: Elainie Lillios, Advisor Burton Beerman
2 ii ABSTRACT Elainie Lillios, Advisor Transcendence toward Paradise is a thirteen-minute, ive-movement iece or mezzo-sorano, lute, har, and viola. The selected text was excerted rom an Italian sonnet written by Michelangelo Buonarroti (147-14), which was set in its original language. William Wordsworth rovided a beautiul oetic translation, which I chose to guide my text setting. Dolce è ben quella in un udico core, che er cangiar di scorza o d ora estrema non manca, e qui caarra il aradiso. In chaste hearts uninluenced by the ower o outward change, there blooms a deathless lower, that breathes on earth the air o aradise. The text aears in its entirety only in the last movement, with earlier movements exloring a gradual reconstruction o the text rom its comonent arts. To accomlish this, the text was deconstructed into various syllables reresented in the score with the International Phonetic Alhabet (IPA). The irst movement s text contains only the shortest durations o syllables, denoting the highest level o text abstraction. As each subsequent movement rogresses, the abstract syllables gradually merge together and exand to orm words and hrases o the text. The thematic material or Transcendence toward Paradise originates rom the ith movement o the iece. Salient characteristics rom the last movement were shaed into variations based uon these eatures, which also relect the evolving characteristics o the text setting. This was accomlished through variation techniques including motivic and rhythmic deconstruction, augmentation, diminution, and registral dislacement, among others.

In most cases, the X note heads generally relect rhythmic duration only, not inlection. Inlection must then be added according to the erormer s taste. Acting directions I. The Awakening You are an instrumentalist, not a soloist in this movement. Forced whiser means that syllables are heavily annunciated, using lots o air. The sotest oint must be subtle yet audible enough to be heard by the audience. soken- normal conversational tone creaky- rather evil sounding, rickety; use lots o inlection! continue in this manner until directed to change II. Illusions general state o agitation; luctuates rom angry to reserved ollow mood indicators as directed using erormance instructions located underneath the mood indicators whiser- not as heavily accented syllables orced whiser- louder, much more heavily accented seak- normal talking voice shout- as i angry, still holding back reak out- immediately and extrovertly angry sigh- as i annoyed; disarovingly
6 vi bickering- interaction between you and instrumentalists very imortant here; you are reacting to what they are laying; your tone o voice should be sarcastic, as i making un o the instrumentalists rantic- this direction does not aly to you so much, you are still reacting to the instruments; your anger becomes introverted, turns to sadness must use acial exressions- acting out the art through body language will also hel bewildered, uzzled- show conusion, shock o being hurt whining- childlike, stoming; think: I want.are we there yet etc; not getting your way, imatient exaserated- with rustration, almost as i giving u whimer- as i starting to cry, but holding back cry- use inlection, audible inhaling and exhaling sob- as i stricken with grie inhale as i caught o guard- not voiced or soken, airy sound, as i being ricked by a needle (gasing) same as beore, but louder- as i running into someone you didn t exect to see there at that moment, or hearing a loud noise all o a sudden that scares you angry- orceul, esecially with the accents mockingly- sarcastically, as i to onesel holding back sadness- almost as i in denial swell o emotion- vocalize the degree o intensity with which you eel this sadness inside yoursel excited- suddenly the clouds lit with resolve- determined, encouraged gathering strength- ighting back cla- hold u hands so audience can see you doing this (introducing anger back into the scene) irritated- take time, be deliberate almost as i bickering rustrated- short burst o anger, orceul release- almost as i walking away, whatever sort o attitude trying to calm down- moving on so as to distract onesel rom what you were eeling irritation- anger won t go away orced whiser- hiss- evil, as i at someone walking ast you that you desise introverted anger- as i walking o again, arms olded burst- the most intense oint o anger in this movement; exlosive; scream; use your voice
7 vii III. The Promise o Sweetness distantly- ghostlike no acial exression- as i removed rom reality quivering- slow tremolo, not like mvts. I and II, rather shaking with ear questioning- use inlection creaky voice- evil, temting with doubt- tremolo like irst two mvts.; almost scared reluctance- saying yes but indicating otherwise through acial exression/body language with accetance- not liking what is haening but doing it anyway gingerly moving orward- being very careul not to get hurt; on guard enlightened- sudden lash o hoe illed with joy, longing- discovering a new desire enthralled- overjoyed IV. The Battle o Puriication tacet V. Sanctiication o Hoe with certainty and trust, being brave, acceting, eaceul International Phonetic Alhabet (IPA) vowels consonants ʌ as in mud ʃʌ as in shut ɪ as in nickel tʃɪ as in chick ɑː as in ather ɑːrrr as in art with rolled r oʊ as in note *all other consonants in movements I and II are to be ɔː as in alone or the ronounced as written in the English language ɛ as in bet eɪ u iː as in ate as in boot as in seen quivering with joyul tears- bittersweet, mixed emotions ecstatic- overlowing with joy hauntingly- as i an echo rom another world

11 xi Program Notes My objective in creating this iece was to ind a small amount o text and use it in various ways, including traditional and nontraditional text setting. I wanted to ind a way to reveal the text throughout time without giving the whole thing away all at once. In doing so, I ound a text by Michelangelo that I elt aroriately exressed the hilosohical nature o this iece. His sculture the Pieta (in Rome) has always been a great source o consolation or me, and this quote rom his sonnet is something that I elt best described what the Pieta is about, namely that is one who ossesses urity within one s heart will not whither away with the assing events in this world. Instead, those who ossess urity on earth oreshadow the beauty o heaven. I used what he is best known or (sculting) as a rocess to reveal both text and music throughout time. This iece is a theme and variation in retrograde. In this way, the music reresents the rocess o sculting. The inal roduct is not revealed (nor is the comlete text) until the inal movement, just as the inal version o a sculture is not revealed until all chiseling, reining and olishing is comleted satisactorily to the artist s original vision.
