Resumen
This dissertation presents an investigation of the evolutionary process of
extended oboe techniques, through literary analysis and practical research. The
objective of this work is to provide assistance to oboists interested in learning these
techniques. Additionally, this work encourages the student, through the process of
experimentation, to explore the questions that may arise around the aesthetics of
sound, the concept of gesture as an additional visual and aural element in music, and
the collaboration and “real-time” creation processes. Discussed within the work, are
the relationship between the instrument (the oboe) and extended techniques, and
two possible definitions of extended techniques, provided by Luk Vaes (2009) and
Gardner Read (1993). Also explored are the how and why some composers have
utilized extended techniques in their compositions, including brief discussions relating
to extended techniques in real-time composition (improvisation), extended
techniques and technological resources, theatrical gesture as an extended technique,
and suggestions of how musicians might approach theatrical gestures in
performance. Four works were visited: “I Know This Room So Well” – Lisa Bielawa
(2007-9); “Four Pieces for Oboe and Piano” – Ernst Krenek (1966); “In Freundschaft”
– Karlheinz Stockhausen (1978); “Atem” – Mauricio Kagel (1969-70); and an
exploration of the difficulties and solutions associated with each extended technique
found within these pieces, was carried out. The following founding works on
extended oboe techniques were used, as a basis for research: books - Heinz
Holliger’s Pro Musica Nova (1972); Gardner Read’s Compendium of Modern
Instrumental Techniques (1993); Peter Veale & Claus-Steffen Mahnkopf’s The
Techniques of Oboe Playing (1994); and Libby Van Cleve’s Oboe Unbound:
Contemporary Techniques (2004); and articles - Nora Post’s “Monophonic sound
resources for the oboe: Part I – Timbre” (1984), “Part II- Pitch and other techniques”
(1984), and “Multiphonics for the oboe” (1982).
