This book has been brought to completion with the collaboration of a small but dedicated group of people. Chief among them are Fred Lerdohl and Richard Coho, both close personal friends and professional colleagues of my late husband, David Lewin. By early in 1998 David had essentially nished the manuscript, which was, in his words, in not quite nal form. For at variety of reasons, including deterio~ rating health, he set it aside. He intended perhaps to get back to it on his retirement from teachingat Harvard, which was imminent at the time of his death in May 2003. I was encouraged--urged, in fatct---rst by Fred Lerdahl and then by Rick Cohn, to make every attempt to bring the manuscript to publication. Fred in particular spent many hours facilitating this project.

Once Oxford Universiety Press accepted the book, Edward Gollin joined our
team. Ed had been Davids Ph.D. student at Harvard and is now on the faculty of Williams College; he is intimately acquainted with Davids work process, his written output, and his teaching methods. Ed was entrusted with preparing the menu-~ script for publication, reconciling inconsistencies, and. putting it into nal form. All of the gures and examples, many of which had appeared in a variety of for mats in previously published articles, were redrawn by Don Giller. My son, Alex Lewin, has advised me and helped with the creation of an electronic version of the text. Raphael Atlas, another of Davids former students, generously offered his help with the nal stages of preparation by indexing and proofreading the text. l am particularly indebted to Jeanne Barnberger, Reinhold Brinkrnaun, Joseph Kerruan, and Lewis Lockwood for their encouragement and support. Special thanks to Kim Robinson and Suzanne Ryan, our editors at Oxford Uni versity Press, and to Eve Bachrach, Norman Hirschy, and the editorial staff at Oxford. Finally, thanks are due to the Society for Music Theory and the American Musicological Society for their nancial support of this project. Our guiding principle throughout has been to present the text, as nearly as possible, exactly as David wrote it, respecting his intentions and avoiding the temptation to correct, update or improve it. ---~Iurte K.

The poem, an exploration of an affective disorder, is in two parts. The rst thVreeV lines expose the affects involved: Angst and Hojfen wechselrtd, ungestmes Sehnen. The last four lines catalogue the resulting symptoms: dos ich . . ., alas mein . . .., and so on. The end-rhyme supports this articulation of the poem into 3 + 4 lineszp oi b b so cc. The design is somewhat unbalanced, betting the subject matter. From Q the

rhyme scheme, it would appear that line 4 was an extra line: were it removed, the
rhyme would balance as a b b /a c c. Furthermore, the removal of line 4 would not greatly change the descriptive sense of the text; line 5, in fact, recapitulates the depscriptive content of line 4, rather more poetically. A second, and subtler, source of imbalance in the poem is the content ofiline 2: the poet is already presenting a symptom before having nished exp0sVingthc affects responsible. If line 2 began with da, and!or did not rhyme with lineV3, We

->-*1> ~K+<-4*~,4<w~\=<",;*\/s-.e\a~, -.<

might even consider articulating the poem into 2 lines (affect, symptorn)1gVpltts lines (affect, so . . .daj symptom, symptom, symptom, symptom). As it is, the 3 + 4 articulation maintains itself, but line 2 does create a strong medial contrastgbe
tween lines 1 and 3, against the rhyme scheme. And that contrast foteshadowsthe already overextended symptomology of the last four lines. 4 W ii it

The overloaded lines 4-~7 have rneiosized into two sections of music, each commensurate with the musical unit setting lines l~3. In this reading, the extra line of test is not the fourth, but the seventh. The inated articulation of this line, off and away from lines 4-6, draws attention to this particular symptom as contrasted with the others, and one can admire the psychological surety of the composers musical processes here, bringing to light important aspects of the text which are not so apparent at rst reading. First, the narcissistically defensive loneliness of line 7 becomes an enormously accented and apparently (see later remarks) nal stage of a psychological progres~ sion through the song. The stage attained is that in which the poet can get along perfectly well (i.e., perfectly miserably) without anybodys helpful concern. The irnportance of this psychological state in the overall effect of the song is reected by Schoenbergs setting of the piano part. The right hand can get along perfectly well without the helpful support of the left. But it would not be accurate to analyse the psychological state just discussed as

enough. One that is perhaps not so immediately evident is the rhythmic articula-a tion of the text, line by line. In the voice part, each line of text is set as a subphrase,
and these subphrases are articulated by rests (with one exception, to be adiscussed later). Section 1 establishes an eighth rest, Nicht zu rasch, as a norm in tl1is?regard;t that is, such rests separate line 2 from line 1 and line 3 from line 2. Striking, then, is the lack of any vocal rest to mark the largest structural division so far, between lines 3 and 4 at the bar line of measure 7. Naturally, a whole host of irn.portainte1'r1u+ sical and textual features are involved in this phenomenon; in our present contend-t we can (for the moment) simply observe that Schoenberg is, among otherjthings, contracting the duration between lines, the better later to esxten-d (deh\nea=.):l:For.from the bar line of measure 7 on, the expanding pattern is clear and direcff

completely nal in the song. The poet does not seek the consolation of any friend. But, as the music moves into the nal chords, we are reminded that there is certainly one friend from whom the poet seeks something, and that something is not just sympathy. The themes of emotional need and interpersonal relationship, irn~
plicitly usriderlying the generation of Angst, Hojfen, and tmgestiimes Sehnen, are ab~ sent from the fourth through sixth lines of the poem; they are introduced explicitly

only in line 7. Schoenberg, picking up this feature of the text, blows up line 7 into
an Abgespng as well as a coda: his music demonstrates that Angst und Ifojfjfen are a psychological result (mm. l8~l9), as well as a cause (rn. 1). This closes a psychological circle: Alternating anguish and expectation, and tempestuous longing, have driven me to such a state that I sigh while speaking, cannot sleep, sob at night, am totally depressed. (And--rn. M--so that) I do not seek the consolation of any friend. (For there is only one friend who can satisfy my wants, and that not with consolation; it is just this need which has led me to my state of---~m. 18*-alternating anguish and ex;pectation.) But the song is no more completely recursive than completely linear. This is primarily due to the enormous loss of energy that occurs over the course of the music, particularly throughout the third section. The piece indeed traces a

(Nicht zit rasch), it has begun to loosen a bit over the second third (Larzgsamer), and is irrirninently about to give up the ghost by the time it reaches its home stretch (Sehr latsgsarn); the piece barely manages to pull into the station at measure 19 with its last bit of energy.

324 M eater VI Schoenberg in his conception of the song as a whole? The quarter rest is in turn involved with a whole complex of striking rhythmic features surrounding the bar line of measure 14. As a point of departure for their investigatiornwe can observe that the rest participates in apparently extending the normal duple measure of the music to a unique triple measure. The triple measure is in fact quite audible (not just visible) within the voice part itself, despite the further metric complications introduced by the piano hereabouts. Still considering the voice part itself, one can relate this (ap-

If we now investigate how this three-measure group itself came into being, we will become aware that the technique of rhythmic augmentation, clear enough by measures 18-19, actually sets in as early as measure 12 itself. That is, measures 12-13 in the voice part ought to be only one measure (in pitch content, they specically refer to the voice and then soprano piano part of In. 2); it is the augmentation techuique that extends the one-measure model to two here, and thereby the two-measure group to a three-measure group.

rial after measure 14, projecting at such length the sighing Dehmmg discussed

CHAPTER 16 A Way into Schoenbergs Opus I5, Number VII or "327 I have already observed that the gure recalls the piano motive of measures 21/2-31/2. The closeness of the transposed pitch-t is involved in the association. So

as J

earlier?
Returning to Example 16.1: the condensation of 1.6.lb into 16.1c is specically effected by the setting of keiues freundes: the eighth notes of l6.1b here become dis-augrnented, reverting to the sixteenths of the original model 16.1a, in forming the last beat of measure 14. If it were not for this specic transformation, Example I6. lc would be hardly distinguishable from 16.lb in overall metric effect. It is a telling psychological detail that the singers abrupt shift of metric level should be triggered by keines freun.des--the signicance of that text in Schoenbergs conception was discussed earlier. It is, I maintain, equally no coincidence that the original shift of metric levels in the vocal line, at measure I2, was triggered by the assonating freude. George points to the association himself by the parallel placernent ofjede freude in line 6 with keines freundes in line 7, although the words in the poem do not set off anything like the rhythrnic/metric complexities of the music here-abouts, complexities forcefully pointing the singers emotional discombobulation in relation to the friend, along the lines discussed earlier. Returning to Example 16.1 once more: the vocal line, having projected measures 1l--13 and 14-16 as three-measure groups, will naturally group the following tacet as yet another. This notion is parenthetically sketched at the end of Example lo.1c. There is nothing in the piano part to contradict such a metric reading of measures 17--19, and I hear that reading very strongly in the music as a whole.

The gure also, however, strongly recalls the total content of measure in:-the

Relevant are the untransposed pitch identity of the upper lines, the "articulation between the second and third chords of the group, and the tenutornark on the BB of the third chord, in each case. (Yes, the Bi in tn. 2, as in-the-.oriiginal>;Universal Edition, not the G as corrected in the Gesamt Ausgabe.) The association is

In sum, the motive under consideration strongly recalls both the four eighthnotes spanning measure 2, metrically a strong pair of eighths followed bye-aweale pair, and also--sirnultaneously--the four eighths linking the last and rst7ifhalvesl (respectively) of measures 2 and 3, metrically a weak eighth-pair followed-.by a strong.

The sighing chord of measure 17 (identiable as such from the bar lines of m. 3 and espe1cial_ly rn. 4, where it underlies and doubles seuf-) takes the stress of the
entire group. Both the Angst and Hoffcn chords, thereafter, are metrically weak afterbeats to ithe sigh on this rhythmic level. The effect ts neatly with the earlier discussion of the role the latter two chords play here, in contrast to their impetuous dramatic role at measure 1. I I Exargnple 16.1c thus presents three groups of three measures each, which begin with an ieighth rest, a quarter rest, and (as symbolically sketched) a half rest, respectively. This is the notion I was getting at, less formally, in note 3. It relies, of course, on the supposition that the singer participates, somehow, in measures 18-19 but not in measure I7. Having reached this stage in the rhythmic analysis of measures 12--19, we can begin toiattack some of the analytic problems raised by the piano part here-abouts, starting the four-chord motive across the bar line of measure 14. This gure, whose bieginning articulates the opening of section 3 a quarter note early, is rich in associative functions. Some are local, involving reference to the voice in measures and to the augmentation process more widely; I shall return to these later. the moment, I shall focus on the larger-scale associations, recalling material diifectly from section I: it is these associations that make us respond to the motive initiating a new section of the piece, rather than simply extending and echoingiilthe voice part of measures 12-13.
5. Qt course the unwinding of the rhythmic]metric complexities in the piano part after in the piano part after measure 14 also contributes to the kinesis of the music as a whole, but it does not particularly the singer in sustaining the vocal through-line.

6. To be sure, there are other associations with section 1 involving parts of the motive, but no others I can hear so obviously involving the motive as a whole, that is as a Leitmotln any case; no further associations I hear substantially -change the self-skew character of the gure as heard in the light of section I and, in fact, some further associations quite reinforce that character (an example appears later in this note). That section 3 should take consequent matter, from mm. 2 and 3, as a principal rnotivic point of departure bets its thematic function as an Abgesrmg. This contrasts to the second Smllen, which began at measure 7 with a strongly recognizable and extended variation on the.-an-. tecedent matterfrom measure I. " j J These broad outlines, rm as they are, are qualied by further associative nuances, not even-yet considering nonassociative factors in the music.

If we look for a textual clue to this musical state of affairs, we can nd it logically enough over the crucial pair of eighth-notes, in the last half of measure 2, that pivotally connect the two models for the motive. The key word is beklemmen. A person presenting Beklemmtmg as a medical symptom would not simply be generally feeling anxiously oppressed, but would be complaining of such sensations spe cically in the chest, affecting the heart and!or the breathing, that is, of arrhythmia. Such a. condition would naturally result in spasmodic and rhythmically erratic syncopation, and this is precisely what we have been examining in connection with the piano part in section 3.7 The idea of skew syncopation in the piece begins precisely under the text beklemmen, with the pair of eighth-notes that led us to the word. Those eighth-notes, in turn, initiate the sighing motive of measures 2/2-31/'2, whose role in the Dehmmg of section 3 has already been mentioned. The

also gives the pianist a certain hint as to how to perform the inverted carers midway through measures 2 and 3. This is useful background for an eventual performance confrontation with the bar line of measure 7, where the caret reappears, now at the end of a measure, indeed a whole section--a feature that is surprising in the present context, and will bear further study later on.

what. happened in measures 12-13 begins--and only begins--to dawn on the listener. The rhythrnic augmentation, while beklemmt, is now clear. For the moment, though, the listener largely responds to it as an apparently new feature of section 3, belonging to the piano with its motive as incipit for the section. Yet to the extent that the motive also reverberates and amplies the vocal line of measures 12-~13, one begins (and just begins) to become aware that the augmentation in the piano is instead a comment on a rhythmic!metric process initiated and controlled by the voice, as discussed earlier in connection with Example 16.1. In that discussion, it became clear how important it was that the rhythmic structure of the vocal line over measures 12-19 dawn on the listener only gradually; the piano motive begins the process of enlightenment. The powerful large-level associations of the motive discussed earlier prevent the secret from coming out too soon: we are too busy
sociates the third chord of the motive equally strongly with the rst chord of the piece, strengthening the overall weak-to-strong sense of the motive. All of this works to the greater glory of the metric paradox by now sufficiently discussed. It is perfectly logical that there should be fragmentary an-

blue in its own metric context, specically as if beginning the second measureof
either a two- or a three-measure group. The latter -2-3 idea, unfo-rtunately,*still will not work out: even milking the syncopation for all it is worth, one couldnot avoid hearing the rst chord of the subsequently repeated motive as the (duly syncopated) I to which such an extended anacrusis would lead; this wouldrresult-in a much sharper immediate metric transformation of the motive than the.musicodramatic context can support. That is, the gradual sense of the unwinding would be violated as the motive, including no downbeat at this metric levelon iits=rstappearance (as -2-3), would immediately thereafter begin with a downbeat"l on

So the possibility of hearing the motive as M2-3, reverberating, measures


12-13, is ultimately untenable to my ear. It is still useful I think, for two reasons.

either strong-to-weak or weaketo-strong, maintaining the important tension of the Beklemmtmg. Second, it helps the pianist, frustrated nally in any attempt to project -2-3 here, to feel a corresponding release at the end of the piece, where an analogous potential strong/weak or weak/strong ambivalence about measures 18-19 is very successfully resolved by hearing the Angst and Hoffen chords as --2-Z> of a three-measure group. Example 16.1c, in fact, indicated how that threemeasure group is naturally commensurate with the vocal three-measure group of measures ll-13. It makes a certain sense, then, to attempt to refer the motive, as both a reverberation of measures 12-~l 3 and a pianistic point of departure leading to the pianos solo cadence of measures 18-19, to the --2-3 metric prototype underlying the vocal span of music so linked. There is a sense, that is, in which the motive ought to" scan as --2--3 on this level; the fact that it cannot should be savored in that connection. This is, of course, another and further complicating aspect of the Beklernrmmg hereabouts. Example 16.2 shows how the pianist, without having to come in out of the blue, can still rebar his part so as to attack measure 13/z as if beginning a measure. The trick is to consider the rst half of measure 11 as if it were a third beat of measure 10-, following the suggestion of measure 9. The larger meter can then be worked out so as to project the two measures of the motive on its rst entrance as either strong-to-weak (Ex. l6.2a) or weak-to-strong (Ex. l6.2b). I would caution a pianist against over-projecting the rebarring, though, in either version. First, Schoenhergs phrasing, as well as the inertia of the hitherto heavily duple measures, works considerably against hearing measures 10-~l15z uneqpuivocally as a triple measure. (Nor is any other rebarring of the passage any more plausible.) Beyond that, neither Example 16.2a nor Example 16.2b allows one to hear the two measures of the motive on rst appearance as --2 l 1 or --2-3. This was discussed earlier. Example 16.2b does allow the motive to enter weak-to-strong, but only as *3 I 1, which does not adequately represent the metric sense of the augmented reference to measures 21/2---3/2. In any case, one should presumably not try to project any one chosen solution to these ambiguities at measure 131/2; one should on the contrary try to keep them allin the air, at least up to measure 17.. Note that this involves maintaining (to the extent possible) the ability to hear the rst half of the motive as if it were the second measure ofpa two- or three-measure group. And that, in turn, involves being able to dispense entirely with the rebarring of Example 16.2, simply letting the music trail off from -measure 11 to measure 131/2 in the piano, in metrically unorganized quarters; then coming in on a cold second measure of a rneasurogroup at measure 13l2. It would be helpful to have a dynamic after the diminuendo of measure 12, to compare to the piano attack of measure 131/2. But perhaps Schoenberg was wiser to give the pianist some leeway here for personal maneuvering, to achieve a suitable balance among all the ambiguous metric sensations at hand. The outcome of all the rhythmic, metric, and associative nesses we have been discussing is to strengthen all the more the downbeat effect of the pulse at the bar line ofilmeasure 17. There we recognize a completely unambiguous association to

rhythmic level is now clear, there being no further syncopations from here on to
confuse our perception of the straightforward augmentation. Interacting strongly with these factors is the pitch organization of the music over the nal section of the piece. The Seufzer chord at the bar line of measure 17 is 211 goal of the wedging process that has been converging audibly from measure 13/2 on. Example 16.3

nent elements of the voice part in measure 12. The motive involves two wedges, one
between the outer and one between the lower two voices in the piano part. Example

16.3 claries what I hear to be the case: the former wedge is greatly subordinate to the latter, which is identied on the diagram as the wedge. The primary function
of the top voice in the motive is rather displayed as continuing to reverberate the voice part of measures 12-13, the material arising from measure 2 and setting off the augmentation process at freude. The material, in this view, forms a descant for the upper voice of the real wedge, which starts from the C4 and Al4 in the rst chord of the motive. Following Example 16.3 along, we note that the rst attempt of the wedge to converge is frustrated by the last chord of the motive in measure 14. (As with other disruptive sonorities in the song, the chord has Hoen rather than Angst structure.) Several things are wrong about this chord. For convenient later reference, we can tabulate the following errors: i p 1. The chord does not follow the mechanical pattern of sernitone-convergence

334 we PART Vt Schoenberg about the wedgegoal E and referring back to the Cs and Abs from which the wedge has twice begun to converge. This, as indicated by the dotted slurs in Example 16.3, ties together all of the wedging action from measure 13% to measure 17. The Seufzer chord at measure 17 thus retroactively organizes the most directive overall tonal feature of the sighing nal section of the song. It remains, in connection with Example 16.3, to ponder the tonal function of Bl 3 in the mist chord of the motive. The note does not t into the wedge. Or does it? if one ignores register, the Bl as a pitch-class is its own partner in the pitchclass inversion~about- E: in fact, that operation cannot be distinguished functionally from pitch-class inversion about Bl--both rules reect C into Al, Cll into G, etc. In this sense, the Bl is as much of a tonic representative for the pitch~class inversion as is the E; it can stand by itself to that extent. It would not be comfortable to let it so stand here, though. We are very aware of the pitches in register as we hear the wedge, not only the pitcheclasses involved. Frorn that point of view, the problematic Bil: of Example 16.3 ought to be answered by Bl-4. And this in fact actually occurs: the answering Bi is just that one which appears in the middle of the Angst chord of measure 18, and recurs in the following Hoffen chord. Those chords are indeed almost completely symmetrical about that Bl, continuing to project the same pitch-dass inversion as did the wedge, now represented with pitch center BL4 rather than E4. Only the Hoffsn chord is slightly asymmetrical, continuing to display the disruptive behavior which chords

Example 16.4 works out these matters more systematically, analyzing the tonal content of measures 17~l9 as a somewhat transformed and diffracted reverberation of the wedge. Example l6.4a shows the wedge making another pass at converging, up to the F-~El that was earlier so touchy. In l6.4b, this model is transformed by inverting the last intervals of the wedge, so that they center about B54 rather than Ea. The =pitch-class structure of the wedge is not affected thereby: the same pitchclass inversion is still being projected. This notion is further reinforced in Example 16.44:: the addition of the local pitch center Bis themselves. Considering the power the preceding pitch-center E4 at measure 17, this gesture (so to speak) COfI1p0St;;f3Se0t1I the equation: pitch~class inversion about E equals pitch-class inver~

Exarfnple 16.4d has the tonal content of the three measures themselves. The two Hoffen chords disrupt the stability of the inversion. The Al 3 of the rst is the trans~ posed arialog of the rnist BB3 in Example 16.3; we may take it as analogously rep8. I am deliberately avoiding casting the present remarks into more Schenkerian terminology. Those who niay wish to invoke such terminology are of course free to do so. I can see the point. But, per sonally, think that Schcnkerian assertions would be theoretically. contentious here and would not yield much analytic mileage in describing the music beyond what has already been said without them.

complex: This picks up the Bl center of inversion from measure 1, specically from the middle of Hoen, recurring now in the middle of beklemmen. The musical treatment makes it clear poetically that it is Hoffen, which is responsible for the Beklemrmmg, not Angst. The failure of the blue-note Pi to correct itself here indicates that its inversional imbalance will be a strong generative feature in the music (leading ultimately to the solution of m. 19 in connection with rn. 17, but also leading elsewhere rst, as we shall see presently). Indeed, this failure makes the Fl-for~F-natural issue of the highest moment: not only does the mistake repeat itself, it intensies itself by the

The problem can be stated as follows: given a strong Dto-El as a point of departure, to follow this by F-not-Fl. One notes such work going on rst in the piano under the third line of text. l-iavtnpg abandoned its high register after the D5-El5 of measure 1, the piano returns to that register next only at measure 5, where its E5 picks up the wrong note in this connection. An effort to hear across, from the BB5 of measure 1 to the E5 of measure 5 in the piano, is aided by the possibility of hearing measures 41/2W5 as a varieid retrograde of measures ll2--2l/2 (across the caret). Having thus picked up the Wrong note at measure 5, the piano now very clearly projects the idea of fl-nogt-Fl via the transformation of measures 5/z-61/2, in relation to measures 4/z--5 The E5 (or Fl) of measure 5 is thereby corrected to F5 on the second eighth of measure 6.

The absence of a rest also tone-paints tlieflocal text particularly if the singer can actually get from measure 5 through measure 8 withouti*[taking% a breath. In that case, the exhaustion to which the text refers will be quite audible in the ~vo;al~,quality. What is the dynamic in the piano at the end of measure 6?

In the nal section of his article, Dornek engages some of the same material from No. VII that I discuss in the present c.hapt__er, and he relates this material to a larger overview of the cycle as a whole.

338 W EIART VI Schoenberg summarises the relation of the two segments whose progression, one to the next, cotnposesout the idea of F-not-Fl, following D-El> as point of departure.2 Having accomplished its work in the lower octave over measures 7--8, the voice is now ready for the scene 1 fairs in the upper octave, over measures 9-10. This is a

to F here, beyond the local support it supplies during the melisma itself. The piano is already playing with resolving F to E as well, trying both ideas out alternately.
Nevertheless, the accompaniment does in fact project a large structural pushiupa

touchier matter, recalling much more directly the Hojfen and Beklemmung issues
of measures 1-~2. But, with the aid of the melisma (unique in the song) to get up the octave from the already established F4 to the high~F-instead-of-highE, the

voice manages the task, albeit in highly beklemmt rhythmic fashion. The notion of
Beklemmung is particularly apt because the line of text is, uniquely, missing one foot. This, to me, is clearly the climax of the piece. Although the voice has been on

higher pitches (about which more later), it did not have to work so hard to get to
them, nor was its work so dramatically thematic. And, this climax past, the voice immediately begins to head for the nal cadence, aiming for the augmentation ma~ terial of measures 12-13 that will work itself out to that cadence. Having accomplished the job of correcting Fl to F, in both octaves, the voice is willing and eager to supply the correct P-El for the wedge at measure 16, as discussed earlier. It will be left to the piano at that point to say for the singer what the singer cannot consciously say to herself: this corrected F-and-El pair itself can be heard resolving, through begehre and beyond, all to the greater ultimate glory of E as tonic cen-

ter of inversion at measure 17. The F having thus resolved to E, the wrong Fl of
the Hojfeo in measure 19 will turn out to be in some part right after all, as prolonging the tonic E.

ha

The piano is in fact already beginning to warm to that new job over measure 9 and follwing. Having already nished its F-not-Fi work some time ago, it isby
no means so taken with that idea now as the voice is. Rather, it is already toying with the notion of letting its P resolve back down to E, foreshadowing measure 17. Example 16.5

between voice and piano. The poetic function of the accent was to attach bolic Seufzer label rmly to the chord in the piano at that moment, but is far greater than neces.sa~ryi for that purpose alone. So strong is it to my ear
little trouble hearing the pitch material picked up by the piano in

as indicated in Example 16.6. This recall of G5. and Al 5 from measure dis cetttai-nly
one of the salient aspects of the particular chords used here as variants..of.rneas.ure Through that intermediation, one hears the pitch complex in question moving up a semitone to the pianos climax at measure 10"/2 (anticipated a measure be?-

fore). Like the earlier vocal climax, that of the piano presents the highest pitch for the instrument in the piece. The climax is also analogously accentediby a sharply rising anacrusis. Finally, the striking octave coupling between voice .and~piano.re;

By means of the arpeggiated Hoen forms displayed in Example 16.5, the piano
plays rst with moving F5 down to E5. Then, supporting the vocal thrust up, the E5 with its Hojfen form moves back up to P5 with its form, and apparently stays there for good as the piano moves on to its own climax elsewhere. But, after vocal and piano climaxes are past, the arpeggio moves F5 back down (yet again) to E5 with its Hojfen form. and leaves off there. . .
I2. A suhtle touch here: the gesture has denied E (or Fl) as a local center-otlinversion, for the rst segmenu} replacing it by F as a local center-of-inversion. But E, while wrong as a blue substitute for F, is absolutely right when functioning as a centerof-inversion, as ultimately at measure 17. So the ambivalence is displayed here. The piano is certa.inly unhappy about something on the last half of measpre 8. ls it about the voices having denied E as centeoof-inversion? The strange behavior of the actcompaniment at any rate calls added attention to the cadence of the subphrase. 13. The rpader who is familiar with my essay on Number XI of the cycle (the previous chapter of this volunae) will recognize familiar material in the top line of the piano from measure 105: to 11372. Compare the discussion of the approach to measure 20 in the chapter on Number XI. The appear-

associations, then, project the sense of a powerful push up a semitone at measure 10/2 in the piano. Even though the voices E-to~P is not specically involved in

the pitch structure of the event, the voices effort is in some sense given support by the parallel gesture in the accompaniment. _
8IllC of such magic chord material here indicates a denitive articulation of the action. There is to be no more work on the F~not~Fl idea; now we are heading elsewhere (toward tn. 17). Compare also the right hand in measure 13 of Number XI. I14. Interesting here is the unique resolution in this song of a Heen form to a fourth-chord. Indeed, the fourth-chord Bl-Ei--Al: is the correct one to go with the augmented triad from the beginning of measure 7, by analogy to the correctness of the nal two chords in Example l6.4c. One can hear, latent in the texture of the piano part in measures 9-11/1, a good deal of flirting with various pose sible resolutions of Hoen forms to fourtlvchords. The signicance of all this cannot, in my view, be satisfactorily discussed in the context of the present song alone. Reference to events in other songs from the cycle would be necessary.

measure 41/2, lends support to the notion entertained earlier that the pianist can
project at least measures Ill/2--13/2 as if an arnetric cadenza, in the interests of trying to project the beat on measure 131/2 as if for a second measure of a measure-gron.p. We can now easily hear the Al and the G on the quarter-beats of measure 12 hooking up with the subsequent entrance of the wedge from Example 16.3. In this connection, one recognizes the mist chord of the motive as the clirnax chord from measure 10.1/2, down an octave. The extraneous Bl>3s of measures 9 and 10, alternating with the Bl>4s on the bottom of the climax chords halfway through those measures, are the same Bl3s as the mist Bis from Example 16.3.

They keep alive the potential tonic function of the pitch-class Bl, as a center of
inversion. The tonic. function is represented, in both cases, by allowing the Bl to hang about as a bass note oating below the rest of the tonal action. Identifying the mist chords of Example 16.3 with the climax chord of mea~ sure 101/2, where Example 16.6 moved up a semitone, we can hear Example 16.6 moving back down again at measure 17, where the last mist chord resolves to the iSeufzer chord. We are moved back down by association to the Seufzer of mea-

sure 4, the point of departure for Example 16.6. Thinking over the large~scale relation of measure 4 to measure 1072 to measure 17 as involving the notion of up a sernitone, then back down again, the specic
pitches one hears in connection with the large-scale structural sigh are surely Gt (orAi, of Seufzer at tn. 4), to the high A of the piano climax in measure 10/2, and then back down to the A1 of measure 17, via the mist-to-Seufzer upper voice. This Al~and-A relation, in the pitch organization of the piece, seems to go along with the idea of given D~and-El> . Example 16.7 indicates what I mean, at least through measure 10. One notes particularly that measures 4izff., in addition to their retrograde character discussed earlier, can also be heard as a varied inversion of measures 22ff. The inversion is about A-and-Al. And that is the same pitch-class inversion as inversion-about-D-and-El. The inversion is apparently being used as a technical means to contpose-out the function of its central dyad-pair(s), just as the little vocal segments in measures 7--8 composedout their respective centers Fl and F.
