Contemporary Musical Trends Composers, feeling that Romantic period harmony is stretched to its limits, try to develop new ways to use sounds. Experimental styles of music begin to develop.

Contemporary Musical Trends Serialism A Series is an ordered set. All twelve notes in an octave are treated equally, and given their own order. Also known as Twelve Tone music. Complicated new rules for handling the 12 notes of each tone row are developed. In art, painters focused on elements of form, line, and color to produce abstract works. Picasso developed Cubism, which shows many views of the same picture at once. Composers: Schoenberg, Berg, Webern YouTube - Webern Five Pieces For Orchestra

Contemporary Musical Trends Impressionism Meant to give an impression of a mood. Often sounds dreamy rather than precise. In art, painters used large brush strokes which only make sense from far away. Paintings often look “out of focus.” Composer: Debussy, Ravel Debussy: La Mer

Contemporary Musical Trends Expressionism Influenced by Freud’s discoveries in psychology, composers tried to express the inner psychological world of the music. Music can sound like a pleasant dream or a nightmare. Late Romantics, like Mahler and early Contemporary composers like Schoenberg and Stravinsky composed in this style. Artworks tried to show the inner psychological reality rather than a realistic portrait. Composers: Schoenberg, Berg, Stravinsky YouTube - Edvard Munch a selection of works

Contemporary Musical Trends Neo-Classicism “New Classicism” Use classical forms and tonal harmony Composers who write in this style believe the old forms are not dead. Art and architecture show balance, symmetry, order Composers: Bernstein, Britten, Copland, Harris, Stravinsky CD 1 #42

Visual art uses simple, clean lines for their expressive qualities. Composers: Adams, Glass, Reich, and Tan Dun YouTube - Nixon In China (Opera) Act 3 [Chairman Dance]YouTube - Nixon In China (Opera) Act 3 [Chairman Dance]

Contemporary Musical Trends Aleatoric Music Experimental Anything can be music Use of prepared piano, untraditional, or invented instruments. “Chance Music” Artists like Jackson Pollock use random placement of paint on canvas. Composers: Cage YouTube - James Tenney plays John Cage 1-sound_ at the Schindler HouseYouTube - James Tenney plays John Cage 1-sound_ at the Schindler House

Contemporary Musical Trends Jazz Jazz is a truly American art form whose main characteristic is improvisation Improvisation means to “make it up as you go” Jazz musicians must have a thorough knowledge of rhythm and harmony. Composers: Ellington, Joplin (Ragtime), and Gershwin YouTube - Rhapsody in Blue ~ Part 1/2 ~ Leonard BernsteinYouTube - Rhapsody in Blue ~ Part 1/2 ~ Leonard Bernstein

Contemporary Musical Trends American Pop Music Musical characteristics like Call and Response and Syncopation were brought to America by African slaves and became a part of American popular music. American Pop Styles: Country, Bluegrass, Gospel, the Blues, Rhythm and Blues, Rock and Roll, Hip hop, and Rap were all influenced by African music Simple harmony, direct melody, rhythmic syncopation are traits of popular music styles.
