Abstract Details

2011, DMA, University of Cincinnati, College-Conservatory of Music: Voice.
This study focuses on various musical settings of Elizabeth Barrett Browning’s Sonnet XLIII from the Sonnets from the Portuguese. The interaction between the poetic and musical caesuras is explored: the text settings in the musical examples do not always reflect the poetic caesura as indicated. Also considered is conceptualizing caesura as a dynamic compositional tool of which composers use as an effective way of expressing emotions. As caesura is an example of poetic silence, direct and indirect speech acts are performed in silence.
