PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Laura Emmery is Assistant Professor of Music Theory at Emory University. Her research focuses on 20th-/21st-century music and post-tonal theory, with an interdisciplinary approach that draws on philosophy, literary criticism, critical theory, and performance studies. Having spent over two years at the Paul Sacher Stiftung conducting a critical study of the original sources, her analysis of Elliott Carter's music incorporates sketch study in tracking the composer's evolution and process. Her work on Carter has been published in The Musical Quarterly, Contemporary Music Review, Tempo, Twentieth-Century Music, Sonus, Mitteilungen der Paul Sacher, and Form and Process in Music, 1300-2014: An Analytical Sampler. Laura Emmery holds a PhD in Music Theory from the University of California at Santa Barbara and an MM in Theoretical Studies from the New England Conservatory of Music.
This book provides valuable insights into Carter's compositional processes that go far beyond the little problems of brief passages. ... Her investigation provides a welcome contribution to sketch studies, while leaving open many avenues for further research in Carter's music. Peter Smucker, Stetson University School of Music
