Abstract:

The following chapters describe compositional methods applied to the compositions of the portfolio (Volume I), which consists of eight works for instruments and electronic sound, as well as one purely electronic piece. The main concern in all these works is aspects of open form and, to a lesser extent, indeterminacy during performance. I highlight the research I have undertaken in preparation for each of the compositions, show how all of these pieces are progressively linked by my evolving interest in open form, and place them in context with works by other composers, past and present, who hav

Abstract:

This Folio of Compositions is the result of an intense musical search. A search that I do not believe to be finished yet and which probably never will be, as being a composer is a lifelong journey of exploration. There has been a clear development in my personal voice during the last 5 years, a development that is documented in the music of these 11 pieces. The folio includes solo pieces, several chamber works and an orchestral score. Through the composition of these works I have consolidated a style where polyphonic texture, which involves a strong use of polyrhythms and isorhythm, and progre

Abstract:

The field between Stockholm University Frescati campus and the student housing area of Lappkärrsberget, commonly known as Lappis, is today used as a passage – otherwise it is completely empty. This passage is a naturally created shortcut by thousands of students living there, because it is simply a faster way home than the constructed pathway beside it. This proposal is about adding a structure along a passage, an open ground level available for everyone passing by. What geometries are formed from the angle of this specific one?

This essay will address the evolving nature of, and diversity, in method types of musical analysis. It will explore the connection between methods and approach types to musical analysis and related conceptions of what constitutes meaning in music. These methods will be largely understood as operating inside given parameters of musical meaning. Following a short history of some of the developments concerning structure in music from the 17th to late 19th century, I will discuss some of the dominant analytical methods and aim to highlight common features between them.

They are fundamental to my composing and are central to the development of my personal musical language.

Apophenia opens with a fast and frantic movement exploiting the clarion brilliance of the Bb Trumpet. The second movement is sombre in nature and exploits the darker tonal characteristics of the flugel horn. The finale, an ostinato driven dance movement, features the high tessitura of the piccolo trumpet. • Macbeth - a large scale t

This portfolio of compositions includes nine pieces, most of which relate to Macedonian folk music. Some compositions quote entire folk songs while others only excerpts; some employ variation and estrangement as compositional tools, without relation to specific folk songs. The harmonic language developed in the earlier pieces often relates to jazz, as I wanted to explore the value of applying established jazz voicing techniques outside their usual context. Towards the end of the research process, I tried to establish my own harmonic vocabulary, independent of jazz influence, As I turned my foc
