"A simple and pragmatic approach to improvisation. While focusing on the jazz idiom, the techniques discussed are applicable to many styles of music and all instruments, be it rock guitar, jazz saxophone, or the solos of the fusion keyboardist. The system presented in this volume offers a tangible pathway to inside the creative imagination by getting inside the harmony, inside the changes. Chord changes are included for C concert, B and E instruments. In addition the book includes transposed examples for all instruments (C treble clef, B, E, and bass clef)."--Back cover.

In this work, Eugene Narmour extends the unique theories of musical perception presented in The Analysis and Cognition of Basic Melodic Structures. The two books together constitute the first comprehensive theory of melody founded on psychological research. Narmour's earlier study dealt with cognitive relations between melodic tones at their most basic level. After summarizing the formalized methodology of the theory described in that work, Narmour develops an elaborate and original symbology to show how sixteen archetypes can combine to form some 200 complex structures that, in turn, can chain together in a theoretically infinite number of ways. He then explains and speculates on the cognitive operations by which listeners assimilate and ultimately encode these complex melodic structures. More than 250 musical examples from different historical periods and non-Western cultures demonstrate the panstylistic scope of Narmour's model. Of particular importance to music theorists and music historians is Narmour's argument that melodic analysis and formal analysis, though often treated separately, are in fact indissolubly linked. The Analysis and Cognition of Melodic Complexity will also appeal to ethnomusicologists, psychologists, and cognitive scientists.

Eugene Narmour formulates a comprehensive theory of melodic syntax to explain cognitive relations between melodic tones at their most basic level. Expanding on the theories of Leonard B. Meyer, the author develops one parsimonious, scaled set of rules modeling implication and realization in all the primary parameters of music. Through an elaborate and original analytic symbology, he shows that a kind of "genetic code" governs the perception and cognition of melody. One is an automatic, "brute" system operating on stylistic primitives from the bottom up. The other constitutes a learned system of schemata impinging on style structures from the top down. The theoretical constants Narmour uses are context-free and, therefore, applicable to all styles of melody. He places considerable emphasis on the listener's cognitive performance (that is, fundamental melodic perception as opposed to acquired musical competence). He concentrates almost exclusively on low-level, note-to-note relations. The result is a highly generalized theory useful in researching all manner of psychological and music-theoretic problems concerned with the analysis and cognition of melody. "In this innovative, landmark book, a distinguished music theorist draws extensively from a variety of disciplines, in particular from cognitive psychology and music theory, to develop an elegant and persuasive framework for the understanding of melody. This book should be read by all scholars with a serious interest in music."—Diana Deutsch, Editor, Music Perception

About the Book Melodic Sculpturing is intended to provide a comprehensive, developmental approach to vocal instruction for the teacher and for a serious singer. The contents are based on the author's professional experience as a singer and teacher of singing and on the writings of many great teachers of the past and present. The book addresses the physiology of the voice, psychology of voice production, relevant acoustics, and corrections for vocal faults. It also deals with diction, breath management, and vibrato prognosis. Suggestions for using technology as an objective visual tool in voice instruction are included in an entire chapter on the topic. A major and unique portion of the book presents a subject regularly omitted from textbooks on vocal production - interpretation and style. The author presents 34 "principles" of melodic practices that may enhance composers' and poets' intentions, while providing greater interest and involvement for the listener. It is like an encyclopedia for teaching students and for learning to sing well. This inspiring and encouraging volume is filled with documentation from vocal masters of two centuries and many apropos quotations that bolster the interest for the reader. Nearly 100 vocal examples (VEs) are identified and coded in the chapters. They are available at www.MelodicSculpturing.com for downloading. Two accompanying 1-semester workbooks geared for voice classes, the private studio, and a singer's personal use are published separately.
