[ePub] Postmodern Music; Postmodern Listening by Jonathan D. Kramer at Arts-Photography

Description

Daniela no es una poeta o una artista; sino una madre a tiempo completo.Cuando era una nintilde;a; ya sentiacute;a el deseo de comunicar sus sentimientos con dibujos y pequentilde;as composiciones. Este libro nace de ella; como lapersona sensible y simple que es; a pesar de no tener conocimientos teacute;cnicos en el campo literario y artiacute;stico; juega con versos; rimas; figuras del lenguaje; imaacute;genes y sonidos intuitivamente; sinreglas precisas.Nos encontramos frente a disentilde;os originales y elementales; escritos con una meacute;trica libre; donde el ritmo y la muacute;sica estaacute;n dictados por puro instinto; gusto y placer personal del autor; sin ninguna teacute;cnica; al igual que aquellos que; a pesar de no tener estudios musicales; tocan instrumentos; cantan y componen canciones de oiacute;do.Daniela se divierte con las palabras; no soacute;lo en teacute;rminos de sonidos; sino tambieacute;n con sentilde;ales e imaacute;genes; de hecho; utiliza negrita y cursiva creando viacute;nculos entre las palabras; comienza con la primera letra en mayuacute;scula o toda la oracioacute;n en mayuacute;sculas; quita el espacio; escribe palabras dispuesta en el centro; con letras espaciadas;agrupadas en bloques o estrofas de liacute;neas individuales. En un libro electroacute;nico; a continuacioacute;n; estos elementos tienen que ver con el mecanismo de adaptacioacute;n automaacute;tica en el dispositivo de lectura; lo que hace pensar que los textos tambieacute;n pueden ocurrir en formas que van maacute;s allaacute; del propio autor.En la elaboracioacute;n; para Daniela; la poesiacute;a y la muacute;sica son aspectos variados de la misma realidad.Cuando la inspiracioacute;n lo ha permitido; los sonidos de las palabras; los acordes musicales; las imaacute;genes mentales se mezclan con las imaacute;genes hechas por el mismo autor que acompantilde;an la composicioacute;n. En tales casos; el propoacute;sito es casi para degustar los diferentes sabores de una emocioacute;n; suscitaacute;ndola con las palabras y renovaacute;ndola con la imagen.En la familia nos gusta llamar a sus escritos y sus dibujos "Poemas"; sabiendo que para ella es simplemente una manera de expresar sumaravillosa forma de ser. Daniela habla de emociones pequentilde;as y esenciales. Sus pensamientos estaacute;n relacionados con la vida diaria; las pequentilde;as alegriacute;as de la vida familiar; el amor a sus hijos y sucoacute;nyuge; pasioacute;n por el arte en general; desde la pintura hasta la muacute;sica. Daniela quiere transmitir estos valores que estaacute;n soacute;lidamente arraigados en ella y que irradia sobre quienes tienen la suerte devivir y compartir con ella todos los diacute;as.En un mundo donde el tiempo va raacute;pido; dedicarse al arte y a la contemplacioacute;n es siempre menor; mi esposa quiere proponer imaacute;genes y palabras en libertad; expresioacute;n pura de sus pensamientos; paracomunicar c o n simplicidad; las emociones que siente. La simplicidad que es el fundamento de la felicidad.

Really helpful framework for appreciating and understanding postmodern musicBy smartyfunI got this book because I wanted to get an understanding of postmodern music from a theoretical point of view. I really enjoy modern classical music but find it hard to articulate why i like it or even what it is that defines this "new" music. I thought that this book may assist me in my quest and it didnt disappoint me.Jonathan Kramers posthumous book is a thoroughly researched. comprehensive work which is written more in the style of a thesis than a music theory book. It is extensively referenced both in terms of published literary sources and also with its numerous examples of music. It is an intellectual challenge to read but it is all the more rewarding for this.Kramer provides a list in the first chapter which he proposes are the characteristics of postmodern music. These 16 statements or traits provide a re-occuring background and structure to the book which are referred to as the chapters unfold. They dont define postmodern music. but provide a framework for understanding and appreciating it - and this is exactly what I have been looking for.As you delve into the book. these characteristics are discussed in more detail and in various contexts. This is helpful because the statements are mostly short and cryptic. for example. one quality is that postmodern music "embraces contradictions." Once you have got further into the book then these traits are expounded and put further into context.One significant point that Kramer makes it that music postmodernism isnt defined by when a piece was composed. So it isnt music performed after the period of modernism. for instance.There are some sections which include music analysis which requires an understanding of music theory. but there is so much more to this book as it covers philosophy. economics. politics. technology. and other topics so you can skip the music analysis if this doesnt appeal. Unfortunately. the illustrations of musical notation in this book are generally in small font. so are difficult to read and interpret even if you have the theory skills. I havent seen the Kindle version. but assume it could be an even worse problem.I really like this book. It is intellectually challenging and is definitely not a light read (for me. at least) but there is an encyclopaedia of information about postmodern music which will keep me occupied for a long time.
