Understanding Otherness Through Music

Under a Creative Commons license

Abstract

The present paper will focus on three, specific musical examples, in order to show:
How the relationship between identity and otherness can be actually observed in a piece of music. Example
1) Stravinsky, Tango.How music can give voice to emotions that are others but not alien. Example
2) Debussy, Serenade for the Doll.How humour and playfulness in music can play down any rhetorical approach to the origin as “the true identity”. Example
3) Johann Strauss, Czardas from The Bat.

The disciplines of architecture and music interact with each other throughout history. Works of architecture and music are influenced by the semantic and historic features of the period lived in. Composers and architects create their works taking advantage of the stylistic or conceptual data. In both of these disciplines ideas result in concrete products by means of different tools.Baroque era covers the period from 1580 to 1750. In contrast to the balanced and rational attitude of the Renaissance, during Baroque period dynamic, glitzy and dramatic elements have been used. Features of this period are evident in architecture and music as well as other branches of art.This research comprises the examination of the effects of Baroque features on musical and architectural pieces. The study addresses with examples the architectural highlights of the Baroque era in Italy, and the art of J.S. Bach's fugues.
