The paper is an attempt to synthesize the most important aspects of a model of popular and film music analysis proposed by British musicologist Philip Tagg. Tagg, using the category of musemes – universal meaning units, isolated from the musical structure of the composition on the basis of criteria established for every given case – examines selected pieces using multi-level semiotic analysis. In his model Tagg takes into account both the importance of the broadly understood cultural context and the intertextuality of the piece. He also emphasizes the role of affect in musical communication, which is necessary to fully understand the meaning of a musical work.

Pavel Haas’s opera Charlatan (composed between 1934 and 1937 and premiered in 1938) has recently been interpreted by the American musicologist Michael Beckerman as a “premonition” of the Holocaust. The present study aims to provide a complementary view of the opera, based on a thorough scrutiny of its literary (rather than historical) context; it explores the complex intertextual network of literary sources on which the opera draws, including Josef Winckler’s novel Doctor Eisenbart, various historical forms of fairground theatre (including commedia dell’arte), and the archetypal figures of Faust, Don Juan, and Don Quixote.

The paper is an attempt to investigate the possibilities and limitations connected with the unreflective adaptation of the concept of intertexuality, worked out by theoreticians of literature, to musicological research. The author is especially interested in assessing in that sense the concept of the relationships between literary styles proposed by Stanisław Balbus in the book Between Styles, which is currently the source of inspiration for many Polish musicologists. The starting point of the reflection is recalling the doubts addressed by Tibor Kneif already in the 1970s, as far as the reasonableness of using the achievements of semiotics by musicologists is concerned. Going further, the author enters into discussion with some Polish musicologists who use the proposals of intertextuality researchers, e.g. Balbus’, quite too hastily, and examines the examples of sub-mitting by them as intertextual musical works in which one can not find in fact any intertextual relations. The author describes as unreasonable the procedure of presenting the musical works based on borrowings as especially worthy in the sense of their connection with the tradition. The danger lies here in the fact of how easily objective analysis can be replaced with ideology. The author also reminds that most of extra-textual relationships in musical works can be describedusing the traditional tools of musicological analysis — aimed at searching the autonomous sense of music.

After some in-depth analysis, for instance, of the first Ballade in G minor (1836), Frédéric Chopin’s music reveals itself as a striking case of a musical equilibrium between two major musical tendencies. On the one hand, his music brings the reaching towards an idealised voice to a full and very convincing development. His musical themes sing most of the time while all the main characteristics of his writing explore continuous spaces, to the extent the piano can achieve. He uses many melodic chromaticisms and broad gestures, very voice-like phrasings ranging from the most delicate pianissimi to the extremely dramatic fortissimo, and other vocal features. On the other hand, his music is unavoidably written for a percussion instrument (the piano), makes much use of rhythms and often dances as well, while his accompaniments are thick with vertical features, accents and other percussive traits. In reality, Chopin’s music is in a striking state of equilibrium between the vocal and the percussive and constitutes a rich case of a mixed status between the two poles. Perhaps for one of the last times in Western music, Chopin is precisely at the point of equilibrium, before the rise of the percussive that gave birth to much of the twentieth century’s music. Chopin’s music will remain a true and much beloved monument of equilibrium.

Levels of modalization in existential and transcendental analysis: The matter of being-in-self

This essay reflects on some applications of Eero Tarasti’s existential semiotics to music analysis, starting from the asymmetry that marks the categories of “myself’ and “itself’. If it seems evident that we can know the musical being-in-itself, that is topics, norms, forms, and so on, we can wonder if and how we can know the being-in-myself, that is the pure kinetic energy before that it has token any kind of forms. As it is for Schopenhauer’s “Wille”, that firstly becomes objective as Platonic ideas, and secondly as spatio-temporal-causal natural realm; musical energy or “being-in myself’ takes shape firstly as virtual deep-level-figures, and secondly as spatio-temporal-actorial situations, within which being-for-myself struggles with the being-for-itself. Modalities (will, must, can, know) operate in both these two levels of taking shape, but at the first level we have to look for a transcendental musical subject, not characterized by specific historical and cultural features. Then, I introduce the notion of homeostasis, that is the principle that “regulates the global process of breaking away from an original state of rest or balance, and of the subsequent restoration of that balance”. Homeostasis allows us to analyze musical modalization at a deep level, where the transcendental subject takes the form of the being-in-itself. But the research of a transcendental subject is slightly different to that of the Moi, within which the being-in-myself is situated. To analyze the being-in-myself of an individual musical subject, we adopt a less universal homeostasis, that is a specific way to convey musical energy (melodic, harmonic, rhythmic, agogic, and so on) proper of Western music. So doing, I claim that one cannot recognize the first four measures of Beethoven’s Piano Sonata op. 7 as “the moment of Being-in-myself in all of its immediacy” as Tarasti does. Being-in-myself has to be examined in a different light.

The Symphonic Dances, Op. 64 by Edvard Grieg is his last and the most mature large-scale creation for orchestra in which many of composer’s creative principles are generalized. This composition is based on the folk themes which are developed in much greater scale than in other Grieg’s creations of similar type. In this article such characteristics of the Symphonic Dances as the general structure of the cycle and its separate movements, thematic material and its development are discussed, however the main attention is paid to the orchestration. The importance of orchestration in the Symphonic Dances is undoubtedly exceptional among all Grieg’s creations for orchestra regarding its role in the local as well as in form-shaping dimensions of the work.

Studie Rytise Urniežiuse je věnována Symfonickým tancům, op. 64, které jsou posledním a nejvyzrálejším symfonickým dílem hudebního skladatele Edvarda Hagerupa Griega (1843-1907). Inspiračním zdrojem čtyřdílného cyklu jsou norské lidévé písně. Autor se zaměřuje jak na konkrétní hudební východiska v podobě sbírky lidové hudby od Ludviga Mathiase Lindemana (1812-1887) a analyticky rozebírá skladatelům kompoziční přístup v jednotlivých symfonických tancích.

This study presents a proposed dance-music typology of Czech folksong melodies on the basis of the structural analysis of the musical material in Nápěvy prostonárodních písní českých (Melodies of Czech Folk Songs, 1862) by Karel Jaromír Erben, taking into consideration earlier studies on songs and instrumental melodies from Czech collections of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. It presents the results of comprehensive musical analysis of Erben’s notations with respect to melody and rhythm, musical form, meter, tempo, text structure, and declamation.
