Robert Gjerdingen's schema theory focuses the long‐debated ‘galant’ style concretely onto an inventory of stock musical phrases, or ‘galant schemata’. The rich historico‐cognitive discourse sparked by this growing ‘schematicon’ has provided significant theoretical evidence for their historical situatedness, coherence and objectivity; however, there remains a shortage of empirical studies that problematise their contexts of applicability, as well as descriptiveness within full galant works. In light of this, the present investigation schematically interprets three varied works by the eighteenth‐century composer C. P. E. Bach, who is known for pushing the boundaries of the galant style: the Magnificat in D, Wq. 215; Die Israeliten in der Wüste, Wq. 238 (all applicable movements); and the ‘Württemberg’ Sonatas, Wq. 49 (opening movements). Similar proportions of each vocal work are found to be covered by galant schemata (55 per cent and 46 per cent, respectively), atypical schema variants (17 per cent and 24 per cent respectively) and non‐schematic space (25 per cent each), whilst the ‘Württemberg’ Sonatas yielded more (82 per cent) typical schemata, fewer (3 per cent) atypical schemata and reduced (13 per cent) non‐schematic space. Comparisons and analyses within and between these works and schematic categories reveal potential additions to the galant schematicon; highlight the existence of interactions between galant schemata, higher‐level schemas and partimenti schemata; and elucidate both fluid and strict understandings of Gjerdingen's galant category within eighteenth‐century music. Consequently, they focus the question of schema historicity back onto their galant situatedness and establish an important evidence‐based framework from which the Gjerdingenian galant category – and the schemata which constitute it – may be further elucidated.
罗伯特-格尔丁根（Robert Gjerdingen）的图式理论将争论已久的 "伽蓝 "风格具体化为一系列音乐短句或 "伽蓝图式"。这种不断发展的 "图式 "所引发的丰富的历史认知论述，为图式的历史地位、连贯性和客观性提供了重要的理论证据；然而，仍然缺乏实证研究，对图式的适用范围以及在完整的伽蓝作品中的描述性提出质疑。有鉴于此，本研究对十八世纪作曲家巴赫（C. P. E. Bach）的三部不同作品进行了图解。215；Die Israeliten in der Wüste，Wq.238（所有适用乐章）；"符腾堡 "奏鸣曲，Wq.49（开头乐章）。发现每部声乐作品中都有类似比例的典型图式（分别占 55% 和 46%）、非典型图式变体（分别占 17% 和 24%）和非图式空间（各占 25%），而 "符腾堡 "奏鸣曲中的典型图式较多（82%），非典型图式较少（3%），非图式空间较小（13%）。对这些作品和图式类别内部和之间的比较和分析揭示了galant图式的潜在补充；突出了galant图式、高层次图式和部分图式之间存在的相互作用；阐明了十八世纪音乐中对Gjerdingen的galant类别的流动和严格理解。因此，他们将图式的历史性问题重新聚焦到其伽蓝情境性上，并建立了一个重要的基于证据的框架，据此可进一步阐明格尔丁根的伽蓝范畴--以及构成这一范畴的图式。

This article applies Hatten's (1994) concept of the ‘arrival ’ – a cadential that resolves tonal or thematic instabilities without necessarily proceeding to V(7) – to cadences and cadential gestures in Wagner's Die Walküre. It identifies and describes three essential types of arrival chord: a cadential becoming I and launching a new leitmotivic passage (type 1); one continuing in the cadential progression and initiating a new leitmotivic passage (type 2) and one continuing in the cadential progression and becoming a rhetorical highpoint (type 3). Ultimately, it demonstrates that examples of each type produce an aurally illuminating, ‘marked’ effect within Wagnerian ‘musical prose’ in conjunction with the dramatic circumstances.

Herbert Henck's (1980) analysis of Karlheinz Stockhausen's Klavierstück X (1961) offers a fascinating insight into the composer's compositional process at an important juncture in his career. In this article I draw on the now significant recording tradition, including Henck's own canonical version (on Stockhausen [1986] 1996), and Stockhausen's contemporaneous moment‐form theory to explore the influence of the performer – confronted with the many novel rhythmic and technical features of the score – on the salience of the serial processes that Henck describes and the concomitant emergence of the piece's form in performance. I begin with a summary and contextualisation of Henck's analysis in terms of performance practice and audience perception. This then informs my analysis of the eight commercially available recordings, proceeding from discussion of global and sectional tempo data and their bearing on the teleological drive of the piece to qualitative close readings of five case studies, whose serial aesthetics, structural properties and interrelationships are negotiated with recourse to Stockhausen's moment classifications. As well as illustrating the contingency of the performer's contribution on the piece's teleological, serial‐statistical and moment‐formal properties, my methods have epistemological implications for the reciprocal and peculiar relationship that, I argue, must continue to inform the relationship between analysis and performance in the field of New Music.

In his 1957 Mythologies, Roland Barthes proposes a second‐order semiological system, in which a familiar sign is repurposed to become a new signifier and in the process mythologises the previous sign system. This article adapts this principle to musical topics in twentieth‐century music, using the case study of the eighteenth‐century topical universe as it appears in Sergey Prokofiev's two String Quartets.I approach this from two directions, exploring in turn the mechanics of internal relationships and wider historical‐political implications. First, drawing upon William Caplin's concept of formal functions and their various possible associations with topics (Caplin 2005), I propose that topics with formal associations can express formal functions without the requirement for clarity in the primary parameters of harmony, tonality, grouping and cadence. Accordingly, they signify on a second‐order plane. The recurring Mannheim rocket in the first movement of Prokofiev's String Quartet No. 1 (1931) provides a case study. Second, I demonstrate the parallels between a second‐order system and key tenets of socialist realism. Concepts such as dostupnost′ (making the work understandable to everyone) and opora na klassiku (based on past Classical models) echo Barthes's model, as meaning is drawn from reference to Enlightenment‐associated art as a whole, rather than the individual topics. I demonstrate these principles in practice with reference to Prokofiev's Quartet No. 2 (1941). Together, these second‐order perspectives show the deeply rooted reliance on eighteenth‐century semantics in Prokofiev's music and their wider aesthetic implications.
在1957年出版的《神话》一书中，罗兰·巴特提出了一个二级符号学系统，在这个系统中，一个熟悉的符号被重新利用，成为一个新的能指，并在这个过程中神话化了以前的符号系统。本文将这一原则适用于二十世纪音乐的音乐主题，使用18世纪主题宇宙的案例研究，因为它出现在谢尔盖普罗科菲耶夫的两个弦乐四重奏中。我从两个方向着手，依次探索内部关系的机制和更广泛的历史政治影响。首先，根据William Caplin的形式函数概念及其与主题的各种可能关联(Caplin 2005)，我提出具有形式关联的主题可以表达形式功能，而不需要在和声、调性、分组和节奏等主要参数中保持清晰。因此，它们表示在二阶平面上。在普罗科菲耶夫的第一弦乐四重奏(1931)的第一乐章中反复出现的曼海姆火箭提供了一个案例研究。其次，我论证了二阶系统与社会主义现实主义关键原则之间的相似之处。诸如“dostupnost”(让每个人都能理解作品)和“opora na klassiku”(基于过去的古典模型)等概念与巴特的模型相呼应，因为其意义来自于对启蒙运动相关艺术的整体参考，而不是单个主题。我以普罗科菲耶夫的《第二四重奏》(1941)为例，在实践中论证了这些原则。总之，这些二级视角显示了普罗科菲耶夫音乐中对18世纪语义的根深蒂固的依赖及其更广泛的美学含义。

This article discusses ‘New Scale Modulations’, an unusual piece attributed to Franz Liszt by Rosemary Brown (1916–2001), a British composer who claimed to be a spirit medium. ‘New Scale Modulations’ ‘invents’ four key signatures that correspond to four transpositions of the same mode. The ‘New Scale’ and the way it is used establishes a unique mediation between two independent worlds: that of verbunkos asymmetrical scales and that of symmetrical musical thinking, especially hexatonic scales and triadic transformations. By this means, ‘New Scale Modulations’ establishes a deep and rational dialogue with Liszt's harmonic language, incorporating several elements of the verbunkos and Zukunftsmusik. Without ‘proving’ Brown's spirit medium claims, ‘New Scale Modulations’ challenges the view of her as no more than a superficial and intuitive imitator.
