Conlon Nancarrow
Portraitiert von Max Nyffeler
"Ich habe mich in eine kleine musikalische Nische zurückgezogen, aber ich glaube, ich habe sie gut erforscht. Es gibt so viele Künstler und Schriftsteller, die daran glauben, dass sie etwas Bedeutendes geschaffen haben, und es erweist sich als Plunder. Ich dachte, bei mir wäre es ähnlich, aber nun sehe ich, dass es nicht so war."
"Desert Plant"
"Nun höre zu: nach den wenigen Studies for Player Piano von Nancarrow, die ich gehört habe, versichere ich mit aller Ernsthaftigkeit, dass Conlon Nancarrow der bedeutendste lebende Komponist ist. Wenn J. S. Bach statt mit dem protestantischen Choral mit Blues, Boogie-Woogie und lateinamerikanischer Musik aufgewachsen wäre, er hätte wie Nancarrow komponiert, d.h. Nancarrow verkörpert die Synthese amerikanischer Tradition mit der Polyphonie Bachs und der Eleganz Strawinskys – mehr noch: Er ist der bedeutendste Komponist der zweiten Hälfte unseres Jahrhunderts."

    product placement funktioniert und sitzt der Neue erst einmal auf dem Veranstalterkarussell, so wird das Projekt "Junger Komponist" für die nächsten Jahre zum Selbstläufer. Jeder will nun am Erfolg teilhaben: Die Ensembles, Solisten und Dirigenten mit einer "UA" im Programm, die wohlmeinenden Orchesterdirektoren, Abteilungsleiter, Intendanten, Preisverleiher und Stipendiengeber. Die Presse hat eine reaktive Aufgabe: Sie feiert die längst abgemachte Sache als Entdeckung und gibt damit dem Ritual den öffentlichen Segen. In der Börsensprache heißt das: "Die Hausse nährt die Hausse." Hinterher bricht der Kurs irgendwann wieder ein, und erst jetzt kommt der qualitative Aspekt zum Tragen. Er entscheidet über den tiefen Fall oder den weiteren Aufstieg. Und schon ist der Nächste dran, das Spiel beginnt von vorne. Es gibt aber auch andere Fälle: Komponisten, die viele Jahre ihres Lebens im Abseits stehen und unbeachtet bedeutende Musik schreiben. Wenn sie dann irgendwann "entdeckt" werden – nur hier ist das Wort zutreffend –, kommen sie zu späten Ehren, und der Musikbetrieb bemüht sich um sie mit Wiedergutmachungs-Aktionen, die nicht ohne Peinlichkeiten sind. Sie lassen die beflissenen Honneurs mit der Souveränität derjenigen an sich abprallen, die aus dem Kampf mit der ignoranten Öffentlichkeit gestärkt hervor gegangen und sich ihrer Sache sicher geworden sind. Sie sind die wahren freien Geister.

    Biography
    Canon and temporal dissonance

    Choice of
    Study No. 37 ... Conlon Nancarrow (1912 - 1997) was one of the most original composers of the twentieth century. The fact that he worked for most of his life in relative obscurity was a result of his exile status as a composer of player piano music living in Mexico City. While much of the development of western art music can be seen as a gradual acceptance of dissonance in the pitch domain, Nancarrow devoted most of his composing to a series of dazzling Studies exploring temporal dissonance, in which parts of the music proceed independently at a variety of simultaneous tempi. About three quarters of the work employed canonic procedures.
    Canon and temporal dissonance
    In traditional canons, each voice enters at the same tempo as the original and its notes combine with those of the first to imply the desired harmony. In the example below (the tune "Frere Jacques"), the second voice enters after two measures. The original voice is written in such a way that it combines to make tonic and dominant harmonies when it is layered upon itself. The following diagrams represent time along the x-axis and pitch along the y-axis, like a player piano roll turned sideways. Each box represents a note, like one hole on the roll of paper for the mechanical piano. The notes of the original voice are in blue, the second voice when it comes in is in green. The graphics are links that return larger images. The music icon play MIDI files.

    Conlon Nancarrow Project
    Conlon Nancarrow has been hailed as one of the most important American composers of the 20th century. His work has been performed by an impressive array of contemporary musicians ( Ursula Oppens , the Arditti and Kronos Quartets among them), his name invoked in scholarly texts. In addition to the lucrative commissions he received before his death in 1997, he was one of the first recipients of the MacArthur "genius grants" in the early 1980’s. And yet it was not always this way. For most of his long life, Nancarrow was all but completely unknown by the musical establishment. Indeed, few artists of any discipline have experienced such a dramatic reversal in the trajectory of their careers. Even so, he is still practically invisible to the general public – his name not resonating like those of renowned fellow American composers like Philip Glass John Cage , or even Charles Ives That such obscurity has dogged Nancarrow can be attributed in no small part to the composer's music itself – unprecedented constructions of multiple meters and tempos that are extremely difficult or even impossible for musicians to play. Rather than compromise his exploration of the limits of rhythmic complexity, Nancarrow, beginning in the late 1940's and continuing for 35 years, chose to "compose" exclusively for that jukebox of a bygone era, the player piano heartland , but lived most of his life in Mexico, where (after having fought against fascism in Spain with the famous

    CONLON NANCARROW, born October 27, 1912 in Texerkana, Arkansas, studied music at the Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music, and with Roger Sessions in Boston. In 1937, he went to Spain as a member of the Abraham Lincoln Brigade to fight against the fascist Franco government. Nancarrow returned to the United States in 1939 and the following year moved to Mexico City where he currently resides.
    In the 1930s and early 40s, Nancarrow wrote pieces for solo piano, chamber groupings and orchestra. In 1949, he began writing exclusively for the player piano, punching the paper rolls on his own machine. Some of the early player piano works reflect Nancarrow's interest in jazz, blues, and Spanish music. As he further explored the possibilities of the player piano, his compositions became increasingly sophisticated and complex.In 1985, Nancarrow began again to compose for live performers, completing his "Piece No. 2 for Small Orchestra" in 1986.

    Sinds 1956 was hij Mexicaans staatsburger.
    Zijn grote belangstelling voor hoge tempi en complexe ritmische structuren bracht hem ertoe bijna alleen composities voor pianola te vervaardigen, geperforeerd in een pianorol.

It was in Mexico that he did the work he is best known for today. He had already written some pieces in America, but their extreme technical demands they made on performers meant that satisfactory performances were very difficult to mount. In Mexico, where the contemporary classical music scene was poorly funded, and there were even fewer musicians capable of performing his works, the need to find an alternative way of having his pieces performed became even more pressing. He found the answer in the player piano, with its ability to produce extremely complex

    The expatriate American experimentalist composer Conlon Nancarrow is increasingly recognised as having had one of the most innovative musical minds of this century. His music, almost all written for player piano, is the most rhythmically complex ever written, couched in intricate contrapuntal systems using up to twelve different tempi at the same time. Yet despite its complexity, Nancarrow’s music drew its early influences from the jazz pianism of Art Tatum and Earl Hines and from the rhythms of Indian music; Nancarrow’s whirlwinds of notes are joyously physical in their energy. Composed in almost complete isolation from 1940, this music has achieved international fame only in the last few years. The author has discussed Nancarrow’s music with him, and analyses sixty-five works, virtually the composer’s complete output. He also includes a biographical chapter containing much information never before published. Contents Preface

In 1956 werd hij volwaardig Mexikaans staatsburger. Hij overleed na een lange en ernstige periode van ziekte in augustus 1997. Hij studeerde kompositie en kontrapunt bij Slonimsky, Walter Piston en Roger Sessions, hoewel deze achtergrond (gelukkig...) geen wezenlijke rol speelt in zijn muziek. Wel een rol speelde zijn lektuur van Henry Cowell's boek uit 1930, waarin deze zijn denkbeelden over polymetriek uit de doeken doet. Enkele van de latere studies werden door Nancarrow zelf, in samenwerking met Trimpin, van een meer genuanceerde dynamiek voorzien. Vergeten we niet dat de Ampico player-pianos geproduceerd werden ten behoeve van de kommerciele en amusementsmuziek, waarbij het er niet op aan kwam de expressieve mogelijkheden te verruimen, maar wel het standaard-repertoire redelijk aanvaardbaar te reproduceren zonder extra loonkosten voor muzikanten bij elke reproduktie.
