Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating evolution of Igor Stravinsky's musical style, particularly his surprising embrace of serial compositional techniques in the latter part of his career. The author meticulously examines key works from this period, including the Cantata, the Septet, and the Three Shakespeare Songs, to demonstrate how Stravinsky adapted and transformed serialism to retain his unique musical identity. By exploring Stravinsky's innovative approach to twelve-tone composition, the author challenges the traditional perception of a stark divide between the chromaticism of the Viennese School and Stravinsky's earlier neoclassical style. This book reveals how Stravinsky's serial works, while employing techniques associated with Schoenberg and Webern, remain firmly rooted in tonality and exhibit the rhythmic vitality and structural clarity characteristic of his earlier compositions. Through detailed analysis of Stravinsky's scores, the author sheds light on the composer's ingenious methods of manipulating serial rows, his use of traditional forms like canons and fugues, and his masterful handling of harmony and rhythm. Ultimately, this book offers a fresh perspective on Stravinsky's late works, demonstrating his ability to transcend stylistic boundaries and solidify his position as one of the most influential and innovative composers of the twentieth century.
