A year before his death at 31 Franz Schubert published 'Winterreise' or 'winter's journey', a series of 24 poems set to music exploring unrequited love. This notion is enhanced even further when we consider the narrative – not just of the movement but indeed of the entire cycle; themes include love, pain, loneliness, isolation, death, dreams and memories – subject matter that could easily be denoted “every day” – themes that are regularly addressed in popular song and can certainly be related to on a human level. – the piece, being considered a true ‘masterwork’, has been given a great deal of attention.

However, I decided it might be more interesting to revisit a piece that has been covered thoroughly by musicologists and accepted by the general listener – firstly, because it’s interesting to look into why the work has gained so much attention on both levels and, secondly, because I believe it to be important to examine a work as influential as this in context of different analytical angles – angles presented by three important book by three important authors on the subject of musical analysis…angles that are, in most cases, not traditionally applied to a piece from this period. Comments; For voice and piano . “Ten Little Title Tunes”: a necessary tome in understanding musical meaning? #family fodder #der leiermann. Again, this has much to do with some of Moore’s ideas – about proximity, and delivery of the narrative. Firstly, there is this repetition that I talked about earlier.

The music stays in A minor from beginning to end, is purely diatonic and based entirely on an open 5th tonic pedal for the duration of the piece – what can really be deduced by applying Bent’s methods, in this case?

Well, it of course did occur to me to look at something more obscure, something less known – after all, it does make sense that unveiling detail of a work or song that had not been studied in such depth could be more interesting, as it would probably offer newer, unexplored territory. © 2020-2021 Matthias Schaller/VG-Bildkunst The stimuli provided for this presentation were the three books detailed in the bibliography.

What do you ⦠And, like many popular songs, the experience is presented from a very private, personal angle. Moore himself says that “the defining feature of popular song lies in the interaction of every day words and music…it is how they interact that produces significance in the experience of song”. Der Leiermann (Ursprungliche Fassung) Franz Schubert (1797-1828) Text by Johann Ludwig Wilhelm Muller (1794-1827) Becca Carter MusTH 311 Form and Analysis Nagel Fall 2011 I. He gives us the tonic chord, and it’s almost far too perfect. Müller meticulously paints the picture of the Leiermann as the ultimate exemplar of *loss*, of *utter abandonment*, it is extraordinarily bleak: "Barfuß auf dem Eise. There is almost a sense of hope in the song, which is enhanced by the organ-grinder’s apparent optimism despite his hopeless situation. Obviously, the methods explored in the book are intended for the application to popular song, not 19th century Western classical repertoire…. There is much to be read into on this – the openness of question could imply numerous possibilities, and there has been a great deal of discussion around Schubert’s intention with regard to placement of the poems within his cycle. He is particularly noted for his original melodic and harmonic writing. They also form a continuation onto one another: despite the V-I progression that first appears in bar 7, there is no sense of finality due to the melody falling to the 5th in the top part – it needs to resolve to the tonic, which it does in the following bar, but in the vocal melody, which then precedes to continue on its own, creating a sense of continuity. This is a transcript of a presentation that essentially explores the benefits of using other forms of analyses to those of the traditional musicological methods, in order to a) uncover potentially unexplored angles of thought, and b) examine how this could affect the perception of – in this instance – Western tonal music. I studied both my undergrad and postgrad degrees at the University of Surrey. http://www.fluxmagazine.com/ryoji-ikeda/
I will just make a direct quotation as I can’t put it into better words myself: “The kind of theory, analysis and synthesis Mayer consistently offers is unquestionably and remarkably effective when it comes to explaining – providing a musical criticism of – the musically known experiential qualities of well-known Western music. Moving on to Leonard Meyer’s book – some of the methods outlined in his Explaining music, I would argue, are quite relevant and useful by way of analysis of this piece. For Soprano or Tenor.

That is what Der Leiermann (the hurdy-gurdy man, the organ grinder) is *not* about. Of course, on an immediate level the purpose of the motif in the right hand is clearly to emulate the sound of the instrument the organ-grinder is playing in the song; however, it also acts as a pause between lines of the narrative, which gives the song a contemplative quality. Or the gentle, yet sufficient, quality of the close of that melodic line? This is why structural analysis is simply not enough – by way of traditional analysis this ending is entirely unproblematic, but when we consider the song in terms of meaning, it requires a deeper level of investigation, and demands many more answers. It goes on like this, denying the listener of a sense of resolution. 8++† ≈⊥+;≤+† ⊇∋≈ †++;≈≤+∞ 1≤+ ⊥∞+≈+≈†;≤+ â3∞≈⊇∞+†;≤+∞+ 4††∞+, ≈+†† ;≤+ ∋;† ⊇;+ ⊥∞+´≈?

I would argue it is within this expectation and the failure to fulfill this expectation that beauty of the piece lays, at least partially. In short, though, like in many popular songs, the listener or audience is lead to believe that the performer is talking from a place of deep, personal experience; and tend to unequivocally believe and trust the performer.
