Brian Robison started the topic Lavengood's "novelty layer" in experimental pop/rock? in the discussion
Society for Music Theory – Popular Music Interest Group on Humanities Commons 4 years, 11 months agoHi!
I’m currently applying Megan Lavengood’s concept of the “novelty layer” in pop texture (see her 2020 MTO article) to King Crimson’s 1973 album Larks’ Tongues in Aspic.
Is anyone else out there doing work along these lines with selections from progressive rock? art rock? experimental pop? etc.?
Many thanks,
Brian

Brian Robison replied to the topic Contour Segments in Pop? in the discussion
Society for Music Theory – Popular Music Interest Group on Humanities Commons 4 years, 11 months agoI take it you’re looking for examples less than a decade old?
Both SZA’s “Broken clocks” (2017) and Azealia Banks’s “Anna Wintour” (2018) include melodic sequences that are constructed from pentatonic scales … so, the generic melodic intervals don’t necessarily match, but the csegs do.

Society for Music Theory – Popular Music Interest Group on Humanities Commons 4 years, 11 months agoHi Christine, I just thought I’d mention that it’s not obvious which “way” the numbers are supposed to be ranked. I assumed #1 was top priority and #4 was lowest but someone else may have interpreted this differently! You may wish to reply here to clarify or include that note in the instructions themselves.

Judd Danby started the topic List of All All-trichord Row-classes in the discussion
SMT Post-1945 Music Analysis Interest Group on Humanities Commons 5 years, 1 month agoI’m hoping to be able to find a list of all all-trichord (or at least ten-trichord, omitting {036} and {048}) row-classes. I believe that Daniel Starr’s 1980 dissertation contained it in an appendix, but as an “independent scholar,” I have access only to journals through JPASS/JSTOR. Might anyone in the group have such a list to share?

SMT Post-1945 Music Analysis Interest Group on Humanities Commons 5 years, 1 month agoHi Tara,
I remember the discussion, and I thought the consensus was that the language needed to be tweaked. I don’t think it’s far off and I voted to ratify it as is. But I do think the question of tweaking should be considered in a future update to the bylaws.

Antares Boyle replied to the topic Link to vote to ratify bylaws / participate in post-meeting survey in the discussion
SMT Post-1945 Music Analysis Interest Group on Humanities Commons 5 years, 1 month agoHi Josh,
There was some discussion of this section on draft 2, and the consensus seemed to be that the language was adequate as it is now, which is why we left it that way in the next two drafts. Since we’re already voting, let’s see how the vote turns out, and if it becomes a problem, we can always revise it in the future.
Thanks!

Thanks for your input on the bylaws. Here is a link to the final draft. The only non-cosmetic change made since the third draft is that “20th and 21st music” has been replaced with “music after 1945,” as Timothy Johnson suggested.
