Kendra Leonard deposited Teaching Julia Perry’s Homunculus C.F. in the group
Julia Perry Working Group on Humanities Commons 7 months, 2 weeks agoComposer Julia Perry (1924-79) is often mentioned in discussions of Black American musicians active in the middle of the twentieth century, but because of the relative lack of access to her music, her works are rarely performed, much less taught in the classroom. Her 1960 chamber work Homunculus C. F. for percussion and harp, however, has been…[Read more]

Julia Perry Working Group on Humanities Commons 11 months, 3 weeks agoHello friends–
I just got a query about premiere dates for Perry’s Frammenti dalle lettere de Santa Caterina and Pastorale. These are both being performed by the Akron Symphony Orchestra this season. I do not have any info on the premieres of these works, but possibly one of you might know something? If so, please share or contact me!

Julia Perry Working Group on Humanities Commons 1 year, 4 months agoI’m glad my very rough notes are helpful, Kendra! I’ve only just begun to scratch the surface of the non-Second-Viennese-School-focused analytical serialist literature; I decided to start by searching for analyses of Dallapiccola’s work.

Julia Perry Working Group on Humanities Commons 1 year, 4 months agoMeg, this is really helpful. I’m working on a conference paper on Perry’s The Selfish Giant, and there a lot of it is sprechgesang in the vocal parts and either a drone or a repeated figure in the orchestra. In one section I’m grappling with, she uses a (026) figure with interpolations and then reduces it to just an (02) set. What’s the accepted…[Read more]
