SMT Post-1945 Music Analysis Interest Group on Humanities Commons 4 years, 8 months agoHi, all,
I, too, am in favor of a pedagogy-focused, Post-1945-sponsored session, especially if it’s broadly conceived (as it currently seems to be).
Hope you’re all well!

SMT Post-1945 Music Analysis Interest Group via email on Humanities Commons 4 years, 8 months agoHi everyone,
long-time listener, first-time ‘caller’ . . .
I like Antares’s ideas about pedagogy, and think that a session on that
would be timely—whether it’s carefully limited to post-1945 or not. So,
I’ll second that.Maybe Xenakis waits until next year, where he hits that nice, round number?

SMT Post-1945 Music Analysis Interest Group on Humanities Commons 4 years, 8 months agoHi Amy, thanks for your thoughts! To clarify, this isn’t for the interest group meeting itself—this would be for a special session proposal that would go through the normal SMT proposal process. If accepted, it would be a normal paper session that is “sponsored” by the IG. This is something a few of the IGs have done in recent years. The special s…[Read more]

SMT Post-1945 Music Analysis Interest Group on Humanities Commons 4 years, 8 months agoI have been vocal about my support for workshop-type presentations in the past, but I realize that lightning talks are the most common structure for the IG meetings. Here is one compromise that fills in the gap: summary discussions of the general techniques common in any of the anniversary composers. It would be very useful, for instance, for…[Read more]

SMT Post-1945 Music Analysis Interest Group on Humanities Commons 4 years, 8 months agoDear group members,
In the survey following our 2020 meeting, a majority of respondents indicated interest in the IG organizing a special session proposal for SMT 2022. To do this, we would need to choose a topic, determine the program committee, and send out the CFP in late summer or early fall 2021. The program committee would then s…[Read more]

Brad Osborn deposited Resistance Gazes in Recent Music Videos in the group
Society for Music Theory – Popular Music Interest Group (SMT PMIG) on Humanities Commons 4 years, 8 months agoA number of recent music videos by women subvert the male gaze (Mulvey) through a number of techniques I construe as “resistance gazes.” These videos subvert the hypersexualization, infantilization, objectification, and victimi- zation regularly seen in music videos using imagery that resonates with broader cultural movements such as #metoo and #timesup.

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.
