| Sumario: | The book «Enfoques sobre el lenguaje musical. La organización del ritmo y de las alturas en el contexto de la escritura y la audición», by Professor María Acevedo, was published by Dunken Publishing House in 2023. The title highlights three key concepts essential to understanding her proposal: «Focus» «Organization» and «Context».
To «focus» on something means to pay special attention to particular aspects, in this case, specific elements of musical language, which are then articulated in various organizations of rhythm and pitch. These are also explained within their historical and aesthetic contexts.
A novel aspect of the book is its study of changes in music from the 20th century onwards. Each of the four chapters is accompanied by numerous musical examples, which can be accessed through a YouTube channel specially created for this purpose. The book offers a broad repertoire of academic music, providing a journey through different historical periods up to the present day. It also includes examples of so–called «popular music» with over three hundred examples of «real music» The dual purpose is to engage with «musical reality itself» and to encourage the reader to participate in performance, listening, and understanding of musical works and composers.
After reading the book, we would like to emphasize the relevance of this topic for any musician, whether a beginner or a professional. María Acevedo presents her book in a practical format that can be consulted according to the reader’s interest. It also serves as a synthesis of the constitutive elements and processes in musical discourse, from the consolidation of tonality to the transformations in music during the 20th and 21st centuries. |
