Abstract Details

2020, Doctor of Philosophy (PhD), Ohio University, Interdisciplinary Arts (Fine Arts).
Resonance investigates recent developments in the field of contemporary percussion music. The five case studies examine how composers, performers, and listeners collaborate. An analysis of their collaborations reveals that recent advances include the reconceptualization of physical space and utilization of virtual space, the arrangement and orchestration of the composer’s voice for percussion instruments, and how collaborators can use source material to explore new avenues of performance. The dissertation also features a creative component, a composition for amplified percussion instruments and four-track cassette recorder titled Resonance, in Three Movements. Scholars and artists interested in unique approaches to interdisciplinary collaboration involving physical and virtual space, source material, and commissioning will find that these case studies provide unique insights involving new directions in the burgeoning field of percussion studies.
