Igor Stravinsky

Welcome back to Between the Barlines! It's been awhile! I've been reconfiguring my schedule for this podcast as well as recovering from some burnout. In this podcast, I talk about a concept that I just learned and needed to share with everyone: to let vs to make. In this podcast, I also speak on topics like burnout, perfectionism, emotion regulation, and pressure.

Welcome Back to Between the Barlines! I am your host, Dr. Maeve Berry! Today, we are going to continue talking about serialism, but we are going to address some other composers who latched on to Schoenberg’s new 12-tone technique. These composers did not only that, but also expanded this technique to crazy levels. We call this, total serialism. Some composers who embraced this were Milton Babbitt, Pierre Boulez, and Karlheinz Stockhausen. We will also talk about Luciano Berio in this episode.Buy me a Coffee: buymeacoffee.com/betweenthebarlinesMusic mentioned in this podcast:Babbitt Three Compositions for PianoBoulez Structures for two pianos :https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6sfGLoF5IUYStockhausen Kontra-PunkteStockhausen GruppenBerio Sequenza III for solo voice

Welcome Back to Between the Barlines! Today, we are going to speak about another composer who was particularly influential in this post-tonal timeframe that we are going through - and that was Olivier Messiaen. I know I said in the last episode we would be chatting more about serialist composers and extensions of serialism, but I think it is important that we discuss Messiaen, as many of those composers studied with him.Buy me a Coffee: buymeacoffee.com/betweenthebarlinesMusic mentioned in this episode:Quatuor pour la fin du Temps (Quartet for the End of Time)Vingt regards sur l’enfant-jésusPoèmes pour mi

Welcome back to Between the Barlines! Today, we move on to another genre of music that was developing in the 20th century; this was Neoclassicism. We are going to chat about specific traits of neoclassical music as well as composers who pioneered and shaped this style in today’s episode.

Welcome back to Between the Barlines! Today, we are going to chat about the other two composers from the Second Viennese School in more depth; these composers are Alban Berg and Anton Webern. We know that Arnold Schoenberg was also a part of this group of composers, so if you want to learn more about him, I suggest you listen to the last two episodes! Berg and Webern were some of his first students who got to see serialism and 12-tone technique from its inception.Buy me a Coffee: buymeacoffee.com/betweenthebarlinesMusic mentioned in this episode:Berg - WozzeckBerg - LuluBerg - Sieben frühe LiederBerg - Nacht from Sieben frühe Lieder: https://youtu.be/x2FpwIUMtVoWebern - Three Little Pieces, op. 11: https://youtu.be/BzYBLDyKvYo?si=5KmEagaoKzQaEiKa

Welcome to Between the Barlines! It’s MUSIC THEORY FRIDAY! This is the first one we’ve had in a while, but I really wanted to talk about the topic we have on the docket today more in-depth. This topic is dodecaphony or the 12-tone technique. Our basic definition for this is a compositional system where all 12 notes of the chromatic scale are treated equally.

Welcome Back to Between the Barlines! Today we are finally moving on from Modernism and will be chatting about the avant-garde. In the years prior to WW1, we were seeing a change from modernism into what we call the avant-garde. This was basically any composer who was really straying from convention.

Welcome back to Between the Barlines! I cannot wait to finally finish up our chat about modernism today! Today, we’re diving into how British composers responded to modernism, why it sounded different from its European counterparts, and how it reshaped the nation’s musical identity.
