César Franck has often been regarded as the composer who most systematically applied the cyclic principle in composition. This study defines the various applications of this principle before describing specific instances in the works of Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert, Berlioz, Schumann and Liszt, as the historical antecedents to Franck's Symphony in D minor (1888). After an investigation of the motivic derivation and inter-relationships of the cyclic themes in Franck's Symphony, the manner in which the cyclic principle is applied in this work is discussed. Finally the overall formal structure is considered and a detailed analysis of the symphony follows to show the manifold ways in which thematic material is utilised to create an organically unified work. 2015-01-03T05:38:37Z 2015-01-03T05:38:37Z 2007 Master Thesis Masters MMus http://hdl.handle.net/11427/11120 eng application/pdf College of Music Faculty of Humanities University of Cape Town |
