The Post-1945 Music Analysis Interest Group is a discursive space for scholars of music after 1945, with an emphasis on the modernist, experimental, and avant-garde. Through its annual meetings and online communications, the group aims to strengthen, support, and develop its members’ ideas and sense of community. It also seeks to bring attention to and foster scholarship on post-1945 music both within the Society for Music Theory and in music scholarship at large.

The Post-1945 Music Analysis Interest Group Publication Award Committee is delighted to announce the winner of our 2022 award. Jocelyn Ho’s “Corporeal Musical Structure: A Gestural-Kinesthetic Approach to Tōru Takemitsu’s Rain Tree Sketch II” (published in Music Theory Online, Nov. 2021) applies an embodied, self-reflexive approach to the analysis of a solo piano composition by Tōru Takemitsu. Drawing on literature from performance studies, phenomenology, and Laban dance theory, Ho foregrounds the performing body and asks incisive questions about what it can tell us about musical structure.
Committee:
Antares Boyle (chair), Drake Andersen (2021 award winner), Sumanth Gopinath (2021 award winner)
