Bang Kim, Kristal

Abstract Details

2012, DMA, University of Cincinnati, College-Conservatory of Music: Piano.
The document presents a comprehensive survey of the solo piano works by an eminent contemporary woman composer Emma Lou Diemer, who is still alive and active as a musician of various roles, such as a composer, teacher, performer, and church musician. By keying into her representative solo piano works including her most recent output, the document’s primary goal is to guide performers and piano teachers for understanding and playing the composer’s piano works. Selected pedagogical and concert works will be given detailed analysis such as comparisons of styles, structures, and sonorities. In light of her collective output for piano literature, the significance of the composer’s contribution to the 20th- and 21st-Century music making, especially for the history of piano literature, is examined, in the context of current musical culture and trend.
