Whilst the notion of human utterance is implicit in our analysis, we will focus our attention on the conjunction of text and music from a structural perspective at this point. The aim of the session is therefore to develop a greater awareness of the complex interplay between textual and musical elements, and to work towards developing a methodology for analysis that will (eventually) incorporate a consideration of musicological, semiological, phonetic and performative aspects of vocal music.<\/p>\n<h1>Preparation<\/h1>\n<ul>\n<li>Read Peter Stacey\u2019s <a title=\"Stacey - Towards the Analysis\" href=\"https:\/\/vle.anglia.ac.uk\/modules\/2015\/MOD003024\/SEM1-C-1\/Documents\/Topic%201%20-%20Music-Text%20Relationships\/Stacey%20-%20Towards%20the%20Analysis.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Towards the Analysis of the Relationship of Music and Text in Contemporary Composition<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h1>Class Documents<\/h1>\n<ul>\n<li>Summary of Stacey&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.paulj.myzen.co.uk\/blog\/teaching\/voices\/music-and-texts\/\">Music and Poetic Texts\/Music and Prose Texts<\/a> analytical framework<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h1>Class Examples<\/h1>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The following examples are available in the <a title=\"University Library\" href=\"http:\/\/libweb.anglia.ac.uk\" target=\"_blank\">University Library,<\/a> or on <a title=\"YouTube\" href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\" target=\"_blank\">YouTube<\/a>.
