AHRC : Alberto Martin : AH/L503939/1My work is fundamentally music-theoretically/analytically driven, and McGill University's Schulich School of Music has one of the leading Music Theory departments in North America and, indeed, the world, which will provide a unique and stimulating intellectual environment that I will take full advantage of during the proposed placement. Although my current supervisory team in the UK possesses deep knowledge on both music-analytical techniques and cultural-historical aspects, my supervisors do not have specific expertise in theories of "formal functions" developed by William Caplin (a Professor of Music Theory at McGill University). "Caplinian" formal-function theory considers the "syntactical" roles played by various parts/sections of particular musical work in relation to the whole, and the capacity of different compositional techniques to express musical temporality, all resulting in well-defined archetypical formal constructions. During this research placement, I will study the applicability of Caplin's theories of formal functions to the music of the 19th-century Spanish composer Isaac Albéniz, and thus also their potential conceptual expansion beyond their original 18th-century "classical" framework. In particular, I will focus on Albéniz's use of one of Caplin's formal types: the sentence. This work will form one of the chapters of my PhD dissertation; my larger dissertation research project seeks to elucidate the importance of 18th-century tonal and formal syntax in the music of Albéniz. I will import the knowledge acquired during this placement to the UK through, for example, the organization of workshops and lectures at the University of Southampton and in collaboration with the UK's Society for Music Analysis. While traditional music-analytical scholarship has been centered on the "Germanic canon", my investigation will contribute to diversifying our discipline by enlarging the repertoire traditionally dealt with by music theory and analysis. My project will reveal the importance of pan-European influences in Albéniz's music, revising and nuancing his traditional nationalist image. Indeed, I believe it is the right time to vindicate figures like Albéniz, a non-nationalist Catalan who fostered ties between all Spanish people by using the richness of different Spanish cultural manifestations within a European tradition to create some of the most well-loved compositions in the history of Western Music.

AHRC：Alberto Martin：AH/L503939/1我的工作基本上是由音乐理论/分析驱动的，麦吉尔大学舒利希音乐学院拥有北美乃至世界领先的音乐理论系之一，这将提供一个独特的、具有启发性的智力环境，我将在建议的安置期间充分利用这一环境。尽管我目前在英国的管理团队在音乐分析技术和文化历史方面都拥有深厚的知识，但我的管理人员在威廉·卡普林(McGill University音乐理论教授)提出的“形式函数”理论方面没有具体的专业知识。卡普林的形式功能理论认为，特定音乐作品的不同部分/部分相对于整体所扮演的“句法”角色，以及不同的作曲技巧表达音乐时间性的能力，所有这些都导致了明确的原型形式结构。在这项研究中，我将研究卡普林的形式函数理论在19世纪西班牙作曲家艾萨克·阿尔贝尼兹的音乐中的适用性，以及它们在18世纪最初的“古典”框架之外的潜在概念扩展。我将特别关注阿尔贝尼兹对卡普林的一种形式类型的使用：句子。这项工作将构成我的博士学位论文的一个章节；我更大的学位论文研究项目试图阐明18世纪调性和正式句法在阿尔贝尼茨音乐中的重要性。例如，我将通过在南安普顿大学组织研讨会和讲座，并与英国音乐分析学会合作，将在这次安置中获得的知识引入英国。虽然传统的音乐分析学术主要集中在《日耳曼正典》上，但我的研究将通过扩大传统上由音乐理论和分析处理的曲目来帮助我们的学科多样化。我的项目将揭示泛欧洲影响在阿尔贝尼茨音乐中的重要性，修改和微妙地改变他传统的民族主义形象。事实上，我认为现在是为阿尔贝尼茨这样的人物辩护的正确时机。阿尔贝尼茨是一名非民族主义的加泰罗尼亚人，他利用欧洲传统中丰富的西班牙不同文化表现形式，创作了西方音乐史上一些最受欢迎的作品，从而促进了所有西班牙人之间的联系。
