ANNOUNCEMENT: SMA launches a new series of educational videos

The Society for Music Analysis has launched the first episode in a new series of videos aimed at widening participation in our discipline. Each episode provides an introduction to a different approach to analysis; this ranges from elucidating a particular theory or analytical method to demonstrating how close analysis can inform broader historical, ideological or socio-cultural arguments. We hope the videos will provide an accessible route into analysis for anyone from teachers and lecturers looking for engaging pedagogical resources to individuals such as performers, musicologists, students or amateur musicians seeking tools to gain a deeper appreciation of musical texts. 

Series 1 explores the relationship between analysis and other avenues of music scholarship, offering examples of the kinds of questions that can be raised and answered with analysis. In episode one, Julian Horton demonstrates how the close analysis of a work can inform our understanding of its historical value, taking as his case study Brahms’ First Symphony and its relationship to the development of the symphony in the nineteenth century. Allan Moore confronts the challenge of working with recordings as texts, analysing texture, timbre and the ‘sound box’ in tracks by The Beatles, The Police, Leona Lewis and Snow Patrol. Anne Hyland illustrates how formal and harmonic mechanisms can play on our perception of the passing of time, identifying retrospective or recollective techniques in the music of Schubert. And in the final episode of the series, Kenneth Smith uses his analysis to make connections between the music of Skryabin and the cultural, philosophical and psychological ideas that were in common currency at the time of composition. 

If you would like to participate in a feedback group or provide individual constructive comments on the first series then please email Helen Thomas:     development -at- sma.ac.uk.
