ABSTRACT

The first part of this document presents a new composition, The Tell-Tale Heart for

baritone voice and wind ensemble, using prose from the short story of the same name by Edgar

Allan Poe. This composition, along with Arnold Schoenberg’s A Survivor from Warsaw and

Samuel Barber’s Knoxville: Summer of 1915, is then analyzed with a scansion model derived

from the research of Peter Groves that shows word and syllable stress. This research also

compares these scansion models to the musical adaptation of the text settings. This allows for

discussions about occurrences of mobile accents or other effects that arise when the musical

adaptation and the scansion differ, which can contribute to considerations of musical

interpretation.

CHAPTER 1

THE COMPOSITION OF THE TELL-TALE HEART

While researching standard works for solo voice and large ensemble, no collaborations

for voice and wind ensemble were found within the parameter of a solo voice using prose texts.

Large ensemble works using prose texts have few representatives in the standard repertoire,

among them being Arnold Schoenberg’s A Survivor From Warsaw and Samuel Barber’s

Knoxville: Summer of 1915. However, beyond the issues of setting prose text to music, due to the

extreme dynamics of wind instruments and percussion, it may be understandable why these

forces do not frequently collaborate.

Because of these gaps, I took the opportunity to compose a work for solo singer and wind

ensemble while using a prose work as the text source. I wished to explore the wind ensemble as

solo vocal pieces are often set with orchestra, chamber ensembles, or piano. This project offered

me two opportunities to advance as a composer: 1) to effectively set prose text; 2) to effectively

orchestrate using an ensemble that naturally has forces that challenge a solo voice.

Poetic texts can imply certain metrical, rhythmic, or lyrical forms before any music can

be composed. Prose texts, on the other hand, may contain some poetic elements, but may not be

constricted by meter or poetic feet and often portray natural speaking. These elements create

different challenges for setting text, specifically when placing the appropriate syllabic stresses.

An example may be a phrase or sentence that contains stresses that are arranged in way that may

not fit into a certain meter. One approach may be setting the text using mixed meter. Another

challenge can be the pacing of the text. Often poetry can have a rhyming pattern along with

stresses that align with a certain meter. When setting the text for prose, the fluidity of the text can

Page 8: TEXT AND SCANSION IN SCHOENBERG’S A SURVIVOR FROM …

2

be unsystematic. As stresses are not placed on precise beats when compared to poetry, prose may

present moments where numbers of stresses used are dense, while at other times present

moments of high numbers of unstressed words. Unstressed words or syllables appear spoken

quickly. If a high quantity appears, the pacing of the text tends to speed up. When set to music,

this can be represented operatically by means of recitative, offering the character to speak or sing

at a similar pace as someone who may be speaking naturally.

Choosing a text

I read several of Edgar Allan Poe’s works when growing up. Works like the Fall of the

House of Usher and The Raven left me enamored, leaving me with a desire to explore more of

his poetry and stories. A professor, friend, and fellow composer, Jamie Poulson, is a Poe fanatic

and has spent an abundant amount of time studying Poe’s works. I had the opportunity to hear

and study many of his own adaptations of Poe’s poems and letters. As I searched for texts, I

wanted to find something that could convey a story and also be operatic in effect. The story also

had to be for one character and be of substantial length, as I wanted the work to be 30 to 40

minutes in duration. I finally settled on Poe’s short story, “The Tell-Tale Heart.” A complete

setting of the story would almost certainly exceed the target duration of 30–40 minutes (which I

wanted to maintain for purposes of programmability). Only a few lines of text along with a few

individual words were removed in the musical adaptation.

Instrumentation

The work was scored using the following instruments: baritone voice, 2 flutes, 2 oboes,

English horn (doubled by the second oboe), bassoon, contrabassoon, 2 B-flat clarinets, bass

clarinet, contrabass clarinet, soprano saxophone, alto saxophone, 2 F horns, 2 B-flat trumpets,

trombone, euphonium, tuba, 3 percussionists (vibraphone, marimba, xylophone, crash cymbal,

Page 9: TEXT AND SCANSION IN SCHOENBERG’S A SURVIVOR FROM …

3

suspended cymbal, snare drum, concert bass drum, kick bass drum, chimes, triangle, tempo

block, shaker, ratchet), and celeste.

Certain instruments were not used in the score that are considered standard to wind

ensembles. First, I used neither a tenor nor baritone saxophone. The range of the singer is

primarily on and just above the bass clef staff (from B-flat 2 to F-sharp 4). This presents several

orchestration challenges, as several of the instruments in the ensemble primarily use the same

register (bassoon, bass clarinet, horn, trombone, euphonium, and sometimes tuba). Because of

this, it was difficult to double parts in this register as collision with the voice could occur, even at

softer dynamics. I felt that the instruments listed above carried enough weight in that register and

contained a variety of timbres so the tenor and baritone saxophones would not be needed.

Second, while quite popular, I did not use a double bass. I wanted to primarily use wind and

percussive instruments in this ensemble. Furthermore, I wanted to explore the timbres of the

contrabass clarinet and the contrabassoon, both of which share the range of the double bass.

Finally, I did not use timpani in this work. Since the old man’s heart beating takes place during

two climactic moments in the story, I did not want a timpani or other drums to diminish these

moments by unintentionally sounding like a heartbeat. Though the celeste is not considered a

standard instrument in the wind ensemble, the bell sounds produced by the instrument felt

appropriate for the spine-chilling plot. The celeste allowed virtuosity that a percussionist playing

glockenspiel or crotales may not be able to achieve. The range is also larger, allowing for lower

sounds while still providing shriller tones.

The orchestration did present challenges. Much of the work had to be carried by soprano

and alto instruments, such as flutes, oboes, and clarinets. Furthermore, the contrabassoon and

contrabass clarinet were often used to provide lower sounds while still allowing the baritone

Page 10: TEXT AND SCANSION IN SCHOENBERG’S A SURVIVOR FROM …

4

voice to float over. Mallet instruments, such as the marimba and vibraphone, were helpful in

providing sustained pitches by rolling. As woodwinds, brass, and percussion can be difficult to

balance with a solo singer, I did not want to over-orchestrate the work. Doublings were used

sparingly, therefore I did not use a 3rd clarinet, a second grouping of horns, a second trombone, a

second bassoon, or other additions common in wind ensemble music, as I felt it would have

imbalanced the ensemble and made it more difficult for the singer to project through the sound.

To further balance the ensemble and the singer, I used softer dynamic ranges to underscore the

soloist and saved louder dynamics for moments when the soloist was absent or was shouting.

Form

The form of the composition was strictly determined by the text of the original Poe story.

The work is divided into three sections, each of which corresponds to specific events in the story.

The first part introduces the narrator and his problem. He is tormented by the old man for a

superficial reason—the old man’s eye. This is where he tells of his plan to kill the old man so

that he will no longer be plagued by the evil eye. He further explains how he would watch the

old man sleep. However, the eye was always closed while the old man was sleeping. Since it was

not open—and not mocking the narrator— he had no reason to kill the old man. The second part

describes the narrator watching the old man sleeping. As the old man wakes in fear, the eye is

illuminated by the narrator’s lantern, causing him to become enraged. As the old man’s fear

grows, the narrator begins to hear the old man’s heartbeat. As it becomes louder and louder, the

narrator becomes more deranged, until at last he bursts into the room causing the old man to

shriek loudly. He then pulls the old man to the floor, covering him with the bed and suffocating

him, silencing the heartbeat and preventing the eye from seeing him anymore. The final part

depicts the narrator dismembering the old man’s corpse and burying it beneath the floor. His

Page 11: TEXT AND SCANSION IN SCHOENBERG’S A SURVIVOR FROM …

5

victory is short lived as three officers come to investigate a shriek heard in the night. He allows

the officers to search the premises where they find no evidence of any quarrel. After chatting for

some time with the officers, the narrator begins to hear a heartbeat below the floor. While the

officers suspect nothing, the narrator becomes more deranged, descends into madness, and

ultimately succumbs to guilt by admitting that he murdered the old man and buried him in the

floor. The form of the composition is summarized in Table 1.1.

Setting the text

I decided to have the character deliver the text in three ways. The first method heard is

Sprechstimme, notated by X-head pitches (see Example 1.1). This represents the character as

being nervous. The style if notation and way is to be performed is similar to Sprechstimme found

in other Schoenberg works, most famously Pierrot Lunaire. The second method heard is the

character singing, written in standard notation. This represents the character as calmer and

somewhat rational (see Example 1.2).

Ex. 1.1: X-head notation of Sprechstimme (mm. 10–12)

The final method heard is narration by speaking, notated with the text above a single-

lined staff, which is to be spoken over the duration of the measures or for which it is above. This

represents the character as anxious and paranoid, as reflected in text associated with the process

or association of killing or wanting to kill the old man (see Example 1.3).

This method communicates the text the fastest; however, the intention in using speaking

was not to get through the text faster, but to provide a further dimension of the character. When

the character speaks, a greater sense of madness is presented.

Overall, I wanted to use three distinct vocal styles to greatly show different dimensions of

the character. While these choices are subjective, I based the vocal style in conjunction with

what was taking place in the story. If I felt the moment was tense and fast-paced, I felt faster

speaking gave the character a sense of urgency, impatience, and is not in control. If the narrator

sang, I felt he was in control of his emotions, reasonable, and careful in his plotting. However, if

Sprechstimme occurs, I felt there was a mix of the former styles. He would have a sense of

control but still exhorting nervous tendencies.

The vocal part is frequently written in the style of recitative. This was to accommodate a

few things. First, I did not want pacing to be an issue as aria-like moments can convey time as

frozen. Second, I wanted the speaker to communicate the text similarly to natural speaking.

There are instances where it is appropriate for aria-like moments to take place. For example, in

mm. 155–237, the story somewhat slows time as the narrator watches the old man who is sitting

up in his bed in fear of a noise that he heard all while describing the moment in great detail.

Themes, motives, and harmonic structure

While working on the harmony, I began frequently using a tetrachord collection that not

only helped create a unifying sound for the whole work, but somewhat served as a leitmotiv for

the narrator. This “mad chord” was a motive that was used frequently in the composition. This

tetrachord always derived from prime form (0145) and was inverted and transposed throughout

the composition. The purpose of this was to indicate when the narrator was having a moment of

madness. It would often be used when the singer said the word “mad,” but it was also used as a

Page 14: TEXT AND SCANSION IN SCHOENBERG’S A SURVIVOR FROM …

8

motive and as a harmony throughout the ensemble. While the first instance is presented by

several instruments in mm. 1 and 2, the first time the motive is heard in the voice can be found in

m. 13, shown on the words “why will you say that I am” in Example 1.4. The singer imitates the

motive as first heard by the clarinet in m. 12. This is followed by an inversion of the motive by

the oboe twice in mm. 13 and 14.

Ex. 1.4: Singer presents prime form (0145) “The Mad Chord” in m. 13

The harmonic material is best described as atonal though with some tertian relationships.

In composing this work, I purposefully tried to avoid tonal harmonies that would imply diatonic

collections such as major or minor. Instead, symmetrical collections such as octatonic, hexatonic,

and whole tone were used. This allowed the use of unsettled pitch collections which helped

create a musical atmosphere that resembled Poe’s dark and haunting text. Since the work itself

was filled with tension, the music used dissonant harmonies to constantly create a disturbing

setting and keep the listener on edge. Aside from collections, some free atonality was applied,

particularly in aleatoric moments.

Aleatoric aspects

In mm. 64–89, several instruments—such as flutes, clarinets, oboes, xylophone, and

celeste—are given short motives with the instruction to “continually repeat” while in a specific

cue or cues. They will continue to play until the direction line in their cue either ends, indicates

that the other player will play the next cue, or the motive changes. The singer would speak his

Page 15: TEXT AND SCANSION IN SCHOENBERG’S A SURVIVOR FROM …

9

dialog that is framed within the cue. When the speaker is finished with that line, they will then

begin speaking the next one in the next cue. The conductor will then indicate that cue to the

ensemble. An example of how this is shown can be seen in Example 1.5.

Ex. 1.5 Aleatoric moment while narrator speaks

Flute player 1 will continue to play the three-note motive from Cue B into C. As different

instruments enter at different speeds, the musical effect is one of dizziness and delusion with the

music representing the narrator’s lack of sanity. During this time, the narrator explains his plot to

kill the old man.

The other prominent aleatoric moment takes place near the conclusion of the work in

mm. 503–540. This is a restatement of the original material first heard in mm. 64–89. During this

period, the narrator begins to feel the guilt weigh down on him such that it begins to make him

physically ill. Repeating this music reinforces this sense of nausea, but more instruments have

been added and layered to make it more intense than the first iteration. This effect creates more

intensity, drama, tension, and an eventual build that contributes to the grandiose moment where

the guilt and madness become too much and a confession is ultimately given.

CHAPTER 2 CREATING A SCANSION MODEL

According to Alfred Blatter, “When setting a text, regardless of whether it is poetic or

not, following and reinforcing in the music, the natural accents of the language of the text

improves both the intelligibility of the words and often the ease with which music is learned and

performed.” That is, reinforcing the strong syllables of words helps strengthen the text by

connecting it to more natural speech. Blatter continues, “The rhythmic accent of the word is

usually easy to locate and, if replicated in the rhythmic structures of the music, can provide

illumination of the meaning of the text.”1

While replicating rhythms towards natural speaking can greatly improve the

interpretation of the texts, it is somewhat of an oversimplification to say that it should be easy to

locate the rhythmic accent of a word. Understanding what words should be stressed and how

they should be stressed is much more complex than Blatter acknowledges. This chapter will

explain how the scansions of the three featured texts, which appear in Appendix A, were created.

It will also provide rules as to what kinds of words are stressed in English. This information will

then be applied in the next chapter in order to discuss interesting features of the texts which,

when set to music, may contain different stress points in comparison to the scansions.

According to Peter Groves, sentences in English are composed of strong and weak

words.2 Content words, which are considered strong words, contain one or more stressed

articulated as much compared to the primary stress). If neither symbol is present before a

syllable, it is considered to be unstressed. Table 2.3 shows how these stress levels are represented

in the scansion analyses of Appendix A, where (/) represents primary stress, (\) represents

secondary stress, and ( _ ) represents no stress.

Though most prepositions are monosyllabic, there are a few that are multisyllabic. Words

like “into” and “unto” are not content words yet still contain some stress. The Merriam-Webster

Dictionary interprets them as having primary stresses on one syllable; however, to stay

consistent with Groves’ principles regarding function (weak) words, the scansion of these words

must be changed to show that while they are not strong within the context of the sentence, they

do possess a level of stress. Thus “into” is analyzed as:

\ _ in-to Instead of providing a primary stress, a secondary stress symbol has been used in its place. This

shows the reader that while this word does have some stress internally, it is only secondary and

should not be emphasized more than a primary stress from a strong word.

to the rest of the example produces the final analysis (see Figure 2.2).

The scansion analyses of Appendix A are presented with each line broken into sentences.

Some sentences, however, are broken in multiple lines due to length. Each line is given a number

for ease of reference.

There are other elements of spoken language (beyond content and function words) that

can influence word stress, such as dialects, accents, inflections, or even multiple pronunciations

of words. These were not considered in constructing the scansion analyses of Appendix A.

Page 21: TEXT AND SCANSION IN SCHOENBERG’S A SURVIVOR FROM …

However, because mobile accent will figure into the analysis in Chapter 3, it will be helpful to

explain that term here. A mobile accent is the possible occurrence of giving an accent to a word

(often a function word) that alters the context. This is often found in English and Germanic

Languages.6 For example, if a person were to say, “I have a pencil,” the established rules would

suggest stress on the words “have” and on the first syllable of “pencil,” as these are the only

content words in the sentence. However, if a person were to put emphasis on the word “I,” it

would imply a comparison to someone else: “Does anyone have a pencil?” “I have a pencil.”

The same can be said if the word “a” were emphasized. This would shift focus to the quantity of

pencils: “Do you have any pencils they could borrow?” “I have a pencil.”

CHAPTER 3 COMPARING THE SCANSIONS TO THE MUSICAL SETTINGS

As I chose a text and an ensemble for which to compose, I wanted to choose two works

to compare it to. Schoenberg’s A Survivor From Warsaw and Barber’s Knoxville: Summer 1915

were ultimately chosen as they were for solo voice, used an English prose text for source

material, and used a large ensemble. The goal of this chapter is to compare the scansion models

created by using rules developed in the previous chapter to the musically set texts. While many

composers have written about their text setting processes, the focus of this analysis is on

differences between the scansion and the setting—a topic not usually discussed. Ultimately, the

intention is not to realize if the composers did anything wrong, but rather, to discover what the

effects are when the musical setting deviates from the stresses found in the scansion model.

Qualities of the texts

Schoenberg

This analysis of A Survivor From Warsaw reveals frequent use of fragments and run-on

sentences. This evokes a constant push forward, providing few moments for the speaker to pause

as one thought quickly moves to the next. Let us consider lines 8–11. (see Fig. 3.1)

In this text, short, articulate words are ubiquitous. Beyond having fragmented and

incomplete sentences, several stressed syllables appear in succession. In line 8, eight of the

thirteen words have primary stress. This articulates the sentence quite heavily, contributing angst

to the frightening texts. line 9, on the other hand, presents more unstressed syllables between the

Page 23: TEXT AND SCANSION IN SCHOENBERG’S A SURVIVOR FROM …

17

stressed syllables. This creates a more poetic effect. A more dramatic example can be seen in

lines 16 and 17. (see Fig. 3.2)

_ / _ / _ / _ _ / _ \ _ _ / _ / / / 8. The day be-gan as us-u-al: Re-veil-le when it still was dark. “Get out!” \ _ _ / _ \ _ / \ / _ _ / _ / / 9.

Fig. 3.2 A Survivor From Warsaw scansion lines 16 and 17

A balance of stressed and unstressed syllables appears in line 16, but every word in line

17 has primary stress. The only unstressed syllables within this fragment appear in the word

“commotion.” This heavy use of stressed words slows the pacing of the speech, allowing a

dramatic moment for every word to be spoken with intensity, clarity, and articulation.

Contrarily, line 10 (refer back to Fig. 3.1) offers several small function words that are

often spoken faster, contributing to an interpretation that could be perceived as frenzied or

chaotic. In summation, Schoenberg’s text is filled with irregularities. It holds no consistent meter

that may be found in poetic texts. Instead, as expected with prose, the use of fragmentation, in

Page 24: TEXT AND SCANSION IN SCHOENBERG’S A SURVIVOR FROM …

18

combination with dense stretches of strong or weak words, creates a text that is quite rigid,

jagged, and heavily articulated. Rhythm or meter is not regular enough to be called consistent.

Agee

In an afterward to the book, James Agee was described by his publisher as “a writer with

precise and original talent, who was essentially a poet.”7 This may have been a quality that

attracted Barber to Agee’s work. Barber did not use the entire text, “Knoxville: Summer of

1915,” which was added as a prologue to Agee’s book, A Death in the Family. He only set the

latter part of the prologue.

If Schoenberg’s text is interpreted as irregular, jagged, heavily stressed, and articulate,

Agee would be quite the opposite. While still a prose piece, Agee’s use of language in his work

borrows aspects of poetry that give a stronger sense of meter. Notice that lines 5–9 are one

consistent thought, like a run-on sentence. (see Fig. 3.3) The use of more multisyllabic words not

/ _ / / / / / 4. Peo-ple go by; things go by. _ / / _ _ / _ / _ _ / _ / _ / _ _ _ / \ 5.

19

only emphasizes stresses, but also helps create a more consistent use of meter. We can imagine

the text spoken aloud can fit in a compound meter. Text can fall into the dactylic stress pattern,

strong – weak – weak. However, times where a trochaic stress pattern occurs can suggest a

simple meter, strong – weak. This furthermore emphasizes strong primary words that would

appear on a strong part of a beat or measure while not emphasizing short, weaker function words

or syllables. This will be explored later in the chapter when observing how melody may be given

priority over articulated words, stressed syllables, or other unique situations.

Poe

Many similarities exist when comparing Schoenberg’s prose to Edgar Allan Poe’s “The

Tell-Tale Heart.” Like Schoenberg, the text creates a dramatic and dark atmosphere that can

change abruptly. Sentences often run on or are fragmented. Interjections are quite frequent.

Short, monosyllabic words are abundant throughout.

The short content words add more stress and also dictate the pace at which they may be

read. More stresses in a sentence may be read slower, insuring that each word is given its

moment to be articulated. This is different from the larger, lusher, multisyllabic words primarily

found in Agee’s prose, which is often treated more melodically and metrically in Barber’s

setting. Consider lines 14–19 of “The Tell-Tale Heart.” (see Fig. 3.4) When observing lines 14–

18, we can see that plenty of intermixing between content and unstressed words, many of which

are either monosyllabic or at most containing two syllables. When line 18 occurs, the pace slows

down as seven stressed words are articulated. Line 19 is then again intermixed with stressed and

unstressed patterns, but also contains a fragmentation of another sentence. This fragmentation,

combined with several stressed points, shows that a pacing of these six lines may be read slowly

from 14–17, more dramatically in line 18 as monosyllabic stressed words appear and extra

Page 26: TEXT AND SCANSION IN SCHOENBERG’S A SURVIVOR FROM …

20

punctuation, and quicker in line 19 where sentence and fragment create a faster reading of pace

due to intermixing of quick function words with short content words.

_ / _ / / 14. I loved the old man. _ _ / _ / _ 15. He had nev-er wronged me. _ _ / _ / _ _ / \ 16. He had nev-er giv-en me in-sult. _ / / _ _ / _ / 17.

He had the eye of a vul-ture – a pale blue eye, with a film o-ver it.

Fig. 3.4 “The Tell-Tale Heart” scansion lines 14–19 Setting the text to music Schoenberg

By creating scansion models of each prose text, it is now possible to compare how each is

set to music. When the scansion model is analyzed next to the music, the goal is to see whether

stressed words or syllables are set in a way that enforces speaking stress. By doing so, two

ultimate questions arise: Does the composer ever deviate from the scansion model? If so, what is

the effect if the musical stress is different than the natural stress?

Schoenberg’s text setting is quite meticulous and well thought-out. Rather than fitting the

text into simple rhythms, Schoenberg uses rhythms that imitate natural speech. In comparison to

the other compositions examined in this document, this is a distinctive treatment of the text; yet

Page 27: TEXT AND SCANSION IN SCHOENBERG’S A SURVIVOR FROM …

21

it is fitting, as this work is to be performed in the style of Sprechstimme, to imitate natural

speaking, even when set to notated rhythms. While tempo changes are common throughout, the

piece is consistently notated in 4/4. This means meter has limited effects on syllabic stress with

the expectation that most content words or syllables would arrive on strong beats where natural

stresses typically occur. As the tempo markings suggest slower speeds, much of the spoken

stresses occur in the division and subdivision layers (down to the eighth-note level). Consider

lines 31 and 32. (see Fig. 3.5)

_ _ / _ / / / _ 31. There I lay a-side half con-scious. _ _ _ / / _ / / _ / 32. It had be-come ver-y still – fear and pain.

Fig. 3.5 A Survivor From Warsaw scansion lines 31 and 32

Schoenberg sets all of the content words so that the primary stresses are heard on strong beats in

mm. 57–61 (see Example 3.1).

Ex. 3.1: Primary stresses found on strong beats in mm. 57–618

The function words and unstressed syllables are often on off-beats. These can serve as anacruses

for the content words. In m. 59, the second syllable of “become” is stressed on beat 3. The

preceding syllables use the first two beats as an anacrusis to beat 3. This continues in m. 60

8 Schoenberg uses a single-Line staff for the narrator. Position of the pitches indicate certain inflection (such as higher or lower than normal a speaking voice) rather than a specific pitch.

Page 28: TEXT AND SCANSION IN SCHOENBERG’S A SURVIVOR FROM …

22

where “still” and “fear” appear on the strongest beats of the measure. Finally the word “and” is

placed on the and of beat 4 to serve as an anacrusis for the word “pain,” which appears on beat 1

of m. 61.

However, not every word is treated to reflect natural speech patterns. There are a few

cases where unstressed words are given stress due to where they occur within the measure. The

first example takes place in m.12. The compound of “can not” into “cannot” should be

interpreted as an auxiliary verb. This can also be seen in Figure 3.6 in the first line of the

scansion model.

_ / \ _ / _ / _ \ 1. I can-not re-mem-ber ev-ery-thing.

Fig. 3.6 A Survivor From Warsaw scansion line 1

This is interesting for a few reasons. First, auxiliary verbs are functioning words that should not

contain any stress, however as a compound word, “cannot” does receive stress because it still

possesses qualities as an adverb from the word “not.” If the words were separate, “can” would be

an auxiliary verb with the function to support the verb “remember,” and “not” would be an

adverb. If read as “I can not remember everything,” “not” would be emphasize by being stressed

as an adverb. However, Merriam-Webster shows two interpretations to the pronunciation of

“cannot.” The first is found in Line 1. (Fig 3.6) The second interpretation would produce a

stressed syllable on “not” while “can” would have no stress. The musical interpretation

resembles the first.

Depending on one’s personal pronunciation of the word “cannot”, one could assume that the

character is not a native English speaker. The narrator portrays a Holocaust survivor and it may

be presumed that English is his second language. This could be supported by the use of German

Page 29: TEXT AND SCANSION IN SCHOENBERG’S A SURVIVOR FROM …

23

intermixed within the text which is spoken often rapidly and fiercely. The Hebrew words sung by

the choir, however, could be another language that is more familiar for the narrator, therefore,

the effect could be emphasizing the fact that the speaker is not a native English speaker and

therefore may misplace or misuse accents within a given sentence. Alternatively, Schoenberg

could be creating an effect through the use of a mobile accent. By accenting a function word, the

context of the sentence is slightly altered, giving greater reinforcement to the negative

connotation of not being able to remember everything, yet he is able to remember some things.

In mm. 47 and 49, the word “could” is given stress both times by being placed on beat 4.

(see Fig. 3.7) As an auxiliary verb, “could” would be unstressed, therefore setting up for the

stressed word “not.” Placing the stress on the auxiliary verb “could”—emphasizing the speaker’s

ability over the action itself—could draw attention to the speaker’s inability to avoid falling

down and inability to stand up.

_ / _ _ _ _ _ / / _ / _ / _ _ _ / / / _ / 26. I heard it though I had been hit ver-y hard, so hard that I could not help fall-ing down. _ / _ _ / _ _ / / / _ / / _ / _ _ / 27. We all on the ground who could not stand up were then beat-en o-ver the head ….

Fig. 3.7 A Survivor From Warsaw scansion lines 26 and 27

Mm. 12–13 and m. 54 both contain the same phrase fragment “I must have been

unconscious” (see Example 3.2 and 3.3). These can also be seen in lines 2 and 28 in Figure 3.8.

Ex. 3.2: Measures 12 and 13

Page 30: TEXT AND SCANSION IN SCHOENBERG’S A SURVIVOR FROM …

24

_ _ _ / \ / _ / _ _ / 2. I must have been un-con-scious most of the time. _ _ _ / \ / _ _ / / _ / _ _ / _ / _ 28. I must have been un-con-scious. The next thing I heard was a sol-dier say-ing:

Fig. 3.8 A Survivor From Warsaw scansion lines 2 and 28 In both clauses, the first three words are function words. “Must” and “have” are both auxiliary

verbs to “been.” The word “unconscious” begins with a secondary accent and is followed by a

primary accent. Strikingly, two appearances of “unconscious” are set slightly differently. In m.

12, “been” is given a slightly longer duration than “must have,” however it is placed on the

weakest part of beat 4. In performance, all other instruments are either resting or are instructed to

play colla parte (with the part). This gives the narrator some freedom and more time when

enunciating these words. In m. 56, the rhythm is altered, resulting in a triplet that places stress on

the word “must,” as seen in Example 3.3. By stressing the auxiliary verb “must,” a mobile accent

occurs that would suggest the character had to have been unconscious as they cannot recall

certain things and this must be the only answer.

Ex. 3.3: Fragment of m. 56

“Unconscious” is treated similarly. As seen in the scansion model, the second syllable

receives primary stress. However, in both occurrences of the word, the musical setting places the

heaviest accent on the first syllable. While that syllable does receive secondary stress, one would

expect that the first syllable would serve as an anacrusis to the second syllable, thereby

reinforcing its arrival on a naturally stressed beat. Instead, the effect makes the narrator sound

Page 31: TEXT AND SCANSION IN SCHOENBERG’S A SURVIVOR FROM …

25

somewhat delirious and confused, as the performance could be perceived as monotonic. The

action of the sergeant hitting people is a probable cause of why the narrator reflects upon being

unconscious. This is supported by the text in lines 22–24, seen in Figure 3.9. Furthermore, this

action could be the reason why the character stresses the wrong syllables for that moment as he

reflects while in a momentary state of confusion. (The possibility that the speaker does not have

a native command of English could again be a factor, too.)

_ / _ _ / _ / _ _ 22. Na jut; wenn ihrs durch-aus ha-ben wollt!” (Oh well, if you really want to have it!”) _ / _ _ _ _ / _ \ / / _ \ / _ / / _ / 23. The ser-geant and his sub-or-di-nates hit ev-ery-one: young or old, strong or sick, / _ _ / _ _ 24. guil-ty or in-no-cent …

Fig. 3.9 A Survivor From Warsaw scansion lines 22–24

Line 17 in Figure 3.10 is the most stressed phrase in the scansion. Though every word

receives stress, an interpretation of this line with all the words being placed on strong beats

would sound very stilted. Instead, the word “too” (an adverb) has a much shorter duration when

set in mm. 38 and 39 as seen in Example 3.4. This duration helps emphasize the words “much,”

“noise,” and “commotion.” This in turn causes the musical setting to resemble a more natural

flow of speech and bring out the more important words in the phrase.

/ / / / / / / _ / _ 17. Much too much noise, much too much com-mo-tion!

Fig. 3.10 A Survivor From Warsaw Scansion line 17

Page 32: TEXT AND SCANSION IN SCHOENBERG’S A SURVIVOR FROM …

26

Ex. 3.4: Line 17 as found in mm. 39 and 40 An especially unusual situation occurs in m. 64: the word “irregularily” appears, raising a couple

of issues. The original setting of the word can be seen in Example 3.5. First, the word

“irregularily” does not exist but is possibly an amalgamation of the words “irregularly” and

“irregularity.” Second, the rhythm to which the misspelled word is set does not contain enough

pulses. “Irregularily” would have six syllables, but the rhythms used are an eighth-note triplet

followed by two duple eighth notes.

When examining the performance of this word in professional recordings, we can hear

how singers accommodate this by altering either the word or the rhythm (see Table 3.1).

Ex. 3.5: How Schoenberg rhythmically sets the word “irregularily” in m. 64

If Schoenberg had used the word spelled correctly and still used the original rhythm, an

interesting occurrence would happen. In line 34 of the scansion analysis that appears in

Appendix A, the correct spelling of the word is used (see Figure 3.11).

Page 33: TEXT AND SCANSION IN SCHOENBERG’S A SURVIVOR FROM …

27

_ / / _ _ _ / _ _ _ / / / / / _ 34. They start slow-ly and ir-reg-u-lar-ly: one, two, three, four – “Ach-tung!”

Fig. 3.11 A Survivor From Warsaw scansion line 34

If the scansion of the word were to be placed on the notated rhythms, the stress of the

word would occur on an unstressed pulse in the beat as shown in Example 3.6. The accent on the

first syllable would be consistent with the word “irregularity,” however, it is inaccurate for the

word “irregularly” which instead has a primary stress on the second syllable. If a performer were

to observe this misspelling and try to accommodate the correct spelling with a rhythm that would

show its natural stressed syllable, they may consider an alternative approach seen in Example

3.7. By moving forward the word “and” by a sixteenth note and placing the first syllable of the

word “irregular” (ir), the stressed syllable (reg) is placed on a downbeat where its natural stress

would be reinforced.

Ex. 3.6: Correct spelling but primary stress (marked with accent) is on weak part of beat.

Ex. 3.7: An altered rhythm with correct spelling that places the primary stress (shown with the accent) on the beat

How the word was performed Comments and effects

Hermann Prey; Bamberger Sym-phoniker; Horst Stein9

Gives slightly more time on the word “and.” Uses the correct pronunciation of “irregularly.” Treats all syllables with equal duration by turning the last two eighth-notes into triplets. Slight stress on the first syllable. Narrator provides a slight ritard while speaking the word “irregularly.”

Maximilian Schell; European Community Youth Orchestra; Claudio Abbado10

The word “and” is given longer duration. The narrator provides a slight accelerando while saying the word “irregularily”. The misspelled word “irregularily” is used, causing a rhythmic change in the final beat with three syllables. More duration is added to the first syllable. A primary stress is added to the syllable “lar.”

Günter Reich; BBC Symphony Orchestra; Pierre Boulez11

Gives more duration of the word “and.” Similar pronunciation as Herman Prey in triplets with the correct pronunciation of “irregularly.” Keeps the beat consistent but diminuendos as “irregularly” is spoken.

Gottfried Hornik; Wiener Philhar-moniker; Claudio Abbado12

The misspelled word “irregularily” is used, causing a change in the final beat with three syllables used. All syllables are of equal duration in this pronunciation of the word as triplet eighth-notes. The syllables “ir” and “lar” are naturally accented due to placement on the beat. The interpretation is monotonic.

29

To perform the word “irregularly” in an irregular way could be perceived as a form of

text painting. Following in mm. 64 and 65, the performance of the numbers one through four

being counted off, not on downbeats, but on off-beats and without the same amount of duration

between each sequence of saying reinforces a new idea. Misplacing these strong words on the

off-beats creates an effect of confusion as the narrator calls out beats inconsistent to the actual

meter, with less time between each number being called (see Example 3.8).

Ex. 3.8 Numbers spoken irregularly and out of time as a form of text painting

The final example to consider is an amendment by the editor, Jacques-Louis Monod. Line

39 originally contained the word “started” rather than the word “began.” The word “began” can

be seen in the scansion model in Figure 3.12.

_ _ / _ / / / _ / / / / _ / / _ _ / _ 39. They be-gan a-gain, first slow-ly: one, two, three, four, be-came fast-er and fast-er,

Fig. 3.12 A Survivor From Warsaw scansion line 39 Both words contain two syllables, but “started” would have primary stress on the first syllable. In

the musical setting of this text, Schoenberg originally would have had stressed the unaccented

syllable of “started” in m. 71. The comparison can be seen in Example 3.9.

Page 36: TEXT AND SCANSION IN SCHOENBERG’S A SURVIVOR FROM …

30

Ex. 3.9: Fragment of m. 71 displaying “began” as a replacement for the original “started” as the former’s primary stress fits the given rhythm whereas the latter would stress the second

(unstressed) syllable

According to Monod, “the rhythmic associations within the rhythmic setting of the text,

as well as those between the set text and the music do not suggest a satisfactory solution.”13 By

changing to the word “began,” the second syllable—which is the primary stressed syllable in the

word—becomes stressed. This results in the phrase conforming naturally to the triplet rhythms

composed by Schoenberg. It should be noted that while other words have been changed since the

first edition, no other editorial alterations change the stress or rhythms in the music.

Barber A large difference between A Survivor From Warsaw and Knoxville: Summer of 1915 is

the way the text is performed. While Schoenberg explored the use of Sprechstimme, Barber

instead focused on the use of pitch, melody, and lyrical singing.

Barber does not include all of Agee’s text. Small portions were not used as Barber took

some liberties at certain moments. For example, lines 19–25 and 33–34 are completely omitted

in the musical setting. While Schoenberg consistently stays in 4/4, Barber uses various meters,

most of which are compound meters. This use of mixed meter greatly affects the text by

changing where strong and weak stresses are placed.

Page 37: TEXT AND SCANSION IN SCHOENBERG’S A SURVIVOR FROM …

31

Barber’s musical setting of the text is carefully executed and adheres closely to the

scansion. However, Agee’s text offers some poetic elements.

_ _ _ / _ / _ / _ _ / _ / _ / / _ / _ 1. It has be-come that time of eve-ning when peo-ple sit on their porch-es, rock-ing

Fig. 3.13 “Knoxville: Summer of 1915” Scansion line 1 There are some differences when set to music. The word “it” is a pronoun and should not receive

stress. However, Barber sets the word on the strongest beat in m. 6 shown in Example 3.10.

Example 3.10: “It” is placed on beat 1 of m. 6 This could be a use of a mobile accent, which would suggest “it” is a substitute for the adverb

“now,” thus placing greater emphasis on the time of day in comparison to another time. Another

interpretation could be that Barber is trying to emphasize the melodic motive with which the

voice begins. The rest of the primary accents from line 1 are placed on strong beats with longer

durations.

In mm. 67–69, an interesting use of the asymmetrical meter 7/8 occurs. The text being

used is found in lines 12 and 13 (see Figure 3.14).

/ _ _ / _ _ / / / _ _ / _ / _ / _ / / 11. rous-ing and rais-ing a-gain its i-ron in-creas-ing moan and swim-ming its gold / \ _ / / _ / _ / _ / _ / / / _ _ 12. win-dows and straw seats on past and past and past, the bleak spark crack-ling and

Fig. 3.14: “Knoxville: Summer of 1915” scansion lines 11 and 12

Page 38: TEXT AND SCANSION IN SCHOENBERG’S A SURVIVOR FROM …

32

In m. 68 and 69, the eighth-note pattern of 2+2+3 can be seen in the orchestral scoring. With this

pattern, the three-beat group will contain two unstressed pulses. The words “gold” and “seats”

are not set on stressed eights. Instead, both are placed on the weak pulses of beat 3. The voice,

however, is grouped as 2+3+2 in m. 68, creating a rhythmic dissonance against the orchestra’s

grouping. The beaming can be seen in Example 3.10 to reinforce the grouping.

Ex. 3.10: Measures 68 and 69, beaming shown in 7/8 to show primary stress

Measure 68 is grouped as 2+3+2, the primary stresses do align on the stresses of the groupings.

Nevertheless, the asymmetrical meter creates an effect that causes the text to seem as if it is

accelerating. A plausible explanation of this could be text painting by musically depicting the

streetcar that is described in mm. 59–67.

In m. 139, an interesting accent takes place on a function word. The second “the” is

accented by being placed on beat 1 and is higher in pitch coming from a leap of a fourth from the

word “of” (see Example. 3.11).

Ex. 3.11: Melody displacement by a beat and tenuto on backyard in m. 137–139

Page 39: TEXT AND SCANSION IN SCHOENBERG’S A SURVIVOR FROM …

33

_ _ / / / _ _ / / / / _ _ / _ _ / / 30. On the rough wet grass of the backyard my fa-ther and mo-ther have spread quilts.

Fig. 3.15: “Knoxville: Summer of 1915” scansion line 30 As the scansion shows, however (see Fig. 3.15), the stressed word should be “backyard,” which

uniquely contains two primary stresses as a compound word. Melodic construction is heavily

controlling these measures as voice imitates material in the flute and clarinet from mm. 130–137,

part of which is displayed in Example 3.12. It is also interesting to note that when the voice is

presented with the melody, a displacement by one beat is added, pushing the strong stress from

beat 1 to beat 2, and an additional anacrusis with an eighth-note is provided.14

Ex. 3.12: Melody first presented by Clarinet in A in mm. 130–132 This would mean if perfectly imitated, “yard” of “backyard” would be on beat 1 rather than beat

2. Instead, beat 2 becomes the strongest beat in the voice. Barber does rectify the stress on

“backyard” by placing a tenuto on the first syllable seen in Example 3.11. This tenuto indicates

to the performer to sing this word heavily, with weight, which effectively gives the syllable more

stress. Without the tenuto, the singer might stress the article “the” which could result in a mobile

accent giving a slight change in the context, as if comparing the “backyard” to others.

14 Harald Krebs would refer to this as a displacement dissonance. See Harald Krebs, Fantasy Pieces: Metrical Dissonance in the Music of Robert Schumann (Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1999), 33.

Page 40: TEXT AND SCANSION IN SCHOENBERG’S A SURVIVOR FROM …

34

Continuing on, m. 145 contains the word “I” which is placed on beat 1. There are two

ways to interpret this effect. The first is the mobile accent, giving greater reinforcement that it is

“I” who is there (compared to someone else; see Fig. 3.16 and Example 3.13). The second

interpretation of this is a use of syncopation with adverb “too” set with a longer duration than “I”

thereby giving it greater stress.

_ _ / / / _ / 32. and I too am ly-ing there.

Fig. 3.16: “Knoxville: Summer of 1915” scansion line 32

Ex. 3.13: mm. 145–147

Similarly in m. 147, the pronoun “they” is given stress by being placed on beat 1, though should

be unstressed as seen in Figure 3.17 . This is again acting as a beat displacement which stresses

“talking” on beat 2. This displacement continues until m. 150 when beat 1 becomes again the

strongest beat. This is another use of a mobile accent which reinforces “they” in comparison to

Continuing with the beat displacement in m. 185, the preposition “by” is placed on beat 1

as seen in Example 3.14. However, the stressed words “some” and “chance” are stressed by the

leap of a minor ninth into the octave. The voice follows melodic imitation which is first

presented in the 1st and 2nd violins in m. 183. “Some” is also is syncopated. (see Fig. 3.18 and

Ex. 3.14)

_ / / / _ / / _ / / _ _ / / _ / _ / _ 45. By some chance, here they are, all on this earth; and who shall ev-er tell the sor-row

Ex. 3.14: Measure 185 In m. 235, the preposition “and” is placed on beat 3, the second strongest stressed point in the

measure. The content word “put,” on the other hand, is placed on the weak second subdivision of

beat 3 (see Fig. 3.19 and Ex. 3.15). Measure 9 offers a parallel situation where “and” is actually

placed on the weakest pulse of the triplet grouping and is followed by the longer duration content

word “talking” (see Example 3.16). As seen in Example 3.15, Barber places a tenuto over “put,”

signifying for the performer to give it more stress than the neighboring pitches.

/ _ _ / _ _ / / _ / _ / _ / 51. Af-ter a lit-tle I am tak-en in and put to bed.

36

Ex. 3.15: Measure 235 “And” is on a stressed beat

Ex. 3.16: Comparing the placement of “and” in m. 9 to that of m. 235

In m. 235, the cello performs a counter melody similar to m. 9 that changes pitches by a leap of a

4th simultaneously as the performer sings “put.” This does help reinforce the accenting of the

word. This choice is perhaps the oddest as some singers may want to change the rhythm by

naturally placing “and” as an anacrusis to “put” by performing it similarly to “and talking” found

earlier in the work in m. 9. Agee indicates that the text is written from the perspective of a

child.15

The final moment to consider in this work takes place in m. 232. The word “who” is an

unaccented pronoun. In its musical setting, the word is heavily stressed by pitch height and by

duration as observed in Example 3.17.

_ / / _ / / / / / / _ _ / / / _ / _ _ _ / 54. but will not, oh, will not, not now, not ev-er; but will not ev-er tell me who I am.

Fig. 3.20: “Knoxville: Summer of 1915” scansion line 54

15 Soprano Kimberly Roberts suggests that giving stress to “and” makes it feel like the child is pouting out of rhythm and does not want to go to bed. The prologue to the score (often read out loud before performances), which Barber quotes from an earlier passage in the same Agee text, establishes that the singer’s character is that of a child: “We are talking now of summer evenings in Knoxville Tennessee in the time that I lived there so successfully disguised to myself as a child.” Samuel Barber. Knoxville: Summer of 1915 (New York: G. Schirmer, Inc., 1952), 1.

Page 43: TEXT AND SCANSION IN SCHOENBERG’S A SURVIVOR FROM …

37

Ex. 3.17: Pronoun “who” given stress by duration and pitch height

This is most likely another use of a mobile accent. This result emphasizes “who” in comparison

to others within the story. They will never tell the singer of the text who they are, what they

should be, or what others are, but instead leave their destiny to themselves.

Stampe As part of the composition process, I created small scansions of “The Tell-Tale Heart.”

These provided me the opportunity to see where all the stresses exist and to discover interesting

features in the text. As noted before, the text is filled with short, monosyllabic words, fragmented

and run-on sentences, and quick changes of pace.

This text is significantly longer than the other pieces examined. I had to find ways to

creatively set the text that clearly and effectively told the story within a reasonable timeframe. As

mentioned in chapter 1, there are three ways the singer delivers the text; Sprechstimme, singing,

and speaking.

Moments that include speaking, such as mm. 64–89, instruct the singer to speak over

certain cues. Measures 275–344 show the singer speaking certain phrases or words over certain

parts of the measure. This speaking is aleatoric with no notated rhythm for the speech. Though

rhythms are not used to display where the primary stresses are within these lines, singers are

encouraged to observe the scansion model. For example, the text that takes place during mm.

257–344 can be found in lines 106–143. This gives the performer direction when placing

Page 44: TEXT AND SCANSION IN SCHOENBERG’S A SURVIVOR FROM …

38

primary stresses. While the text does go by faster, it is also dense and repetitive, and ultimately

builds tension toward the moment when the old man is killed.

In measures 10–12, Sprechstimme and a loud speaking of the word “true” is used so the

narrator immediately engages the audience. Similar to Schoenberg, I often set words to

Sprechstimme to resemble the natural rhythm of spoken text, with exaggerations of duration as a

way of text painting or contributing to the atmosphere of the music, as will be discussed shortly.

One striking difference between this setting and Schoenberg’s work is the use of mixed meter.

Whereas Schoenberg stayed in 4/4, I often used mixed meter throughout the work, which will be

seen in other examples. As seen in Example 3.18, placing “nervous” on the downbeat of m. 12

reinforces the primary stress on the first syllable.

/ / _ / _ / _ / _ _ / _ _ _ / _ /

1.TRUE! – ner-vous – ver-y, ver-y dread-ful-ly ner-vous I had been and am;

Fig. 3.21: “The Tell-Tale Heart” scansion line 1

Ex. 3.18: Sprechstimme in mm. 10–12 with mixed meter to enforce primary stress Within mm. 139–143, text painting is used again. Small intervals when singing help

suggest that the narrator is standing still and trying not to move. This is suggested by the slower

tempo and agogic accents on the words “still” and “whole” seen in Example 3.19.

Page 45: TEXT AND SCANSION IN SCHOENBERG’S A SURVIVOR FROM …

39

Ex. 3.19: Text painting used in mm. 139–143

In mm. 142 and 147, the auxiliary verb “did” is placed on a strong beat. This is similar to

the situation earlier in Schoenberg’s work, where “could” is given greater stress due to its

placement on the beat. Like that situation, “did” is given a mobile accent. Rather than putting

greater emphasis on the word “not” as found in the scansion lines 68–69, the emphasis on “did”

draws attention to what he was trying to do, rather than what he “did not” do. (see Figure 3.22)

_ / / / _ / / _ 67. I kept quite still and said noth-ing. _ _ / / _ _ / / _ / _ 68. For a whole hour I did not move a mus-cle, _ _ _ / \ _ _ / / _ / / 69. and in the mean-time I did not hear him lie down

Fig. 3.22: “The Tell-Tale Heart” scansion lines 67–69 In line 72, text painting occurs. Rather than place the word “groan” on a strong beat as

the primary stress suggests, I placed it on the and of beat 3 in m. 158. This is done because of the

word “slight.” The word “slight” insinuates that the word “groan” should be short (see Example

3.20).

Ex. 3.20: Text painting using the word “slight” before “groan in m. 158

Page 46: TEXT AND SCANSION IN SCHOENBERG’S A SURVIVOR FROM …

40

In measures 135–136, the singer switches back to Sprechstimme. As a molto accelerando

occurs, pitch height rises and eventually climaxes on beat 5 of m. 136 as seen in Example 3.21.

Ex. 3.21: Molto accelerando and pitch height rises in mm. 135–136

What makes this moment interesting is the stress put on the pronoun “who’s” which is found on

line 66. Normally unstressed, a mobile accent occurs over the word “who’s” for a few reasons.

First, because it is a question, the emphasis on the word “who’s” acts similar to an interjection.

Secondly, because of the inflection from the clause “crying out,” it makes sense for stress to

occur. “Who’s” might naturally feel like an anacrusis to the word “there.” The contraction of

“who is” helps give it stress as “is” is a main verb. This gives the word more stress and duration

and causes the question to be perceived as demanding for an answer as to “who” is in the

shadows, rather than the location (there) as precedence.

In m. 248, a mobile accent occurs on the word “cannot.” I deliberately treated the setting

of this word similarly to how Schoenberg did, with the stress on first syllable. I do consider this

as a “tip of the hat” to Schoenberg.

Conclusion and final thoughts

Within the process of comparing these scansions to their musical settings, we have seen

how things like mobile accents, beat displacements, and syncopation affect how the audience or

singer may interpret the meaning of the text. While some of these alterations may be small,

details such as these bring out deeper meaning and understanding in performance. Importantly,

Page 47: TEXT AND SCANSION IN SCHOENBERG’S A SURVIVOR FROM …

41

different interpretations may result. While not the intent of this study, I hope to see this research

applied to other aspects such as dialects, accents, and words with different pronunciations.

I encourage composers to practice the methods used to create a scansion model when

using text. This model not only helps one realize the importance of words and stresses, but it

furthermore provides the composer with a visual model that can suggest implied meters and the

correct stresses of syllables.

He had the eye of a vul-ture – a pale blue eye, with a film o-ver it. _ / _ _ / _ / _ / / / / _ / / _ / 20. When-ev-er it fell up-on me, my blood ran cold; and so by de-grees – / _ / _ _ _ _ / _ / / _ / _ / _ _ / / 21. ve-ry grad-u-al-ly – I made up my mind to take the life of the old man, _ / / _ / _ _ / _ / _ 22. and thus rid my-self of the eye for-ev-er.

_ / / _ / 23. Now this is the point. _ / _ _ / 24. You fan-cy me mad. / \ / / _ 25. Mad-men know noth-ing. _ _ _ _ / _ 26. But you should have seen me. _ _ _ / / / _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ 27. You should have seen how wise-ly I pro-ceed-ed –with what cau-tion – _ _ / \ _ _ \ / _ \ _ _ / _ / 28. with what fore-sight – with what dis-sim-u-la-tion I went to work! _ / / _ / _ _ _ / / _ / _ _ / / _ / _ / _ 29. I was nev-er kind-er to the old man than dur-ing the whole week be-fore I killed him. _ / _ / _ / / \ _ / _ / _ / / _ / _ _ 30. And ev-ery night, a-bout mid-night, I turned the latch of his door and o-pened it – _ / / _ 31. oh so gent-ly! _ / / _ _ / _ / _ _ _ / _ _ / / _ / _ _ / 32. And then, when I had made an o-pen-ing suf-fi-cient for my head, I put in a dark / _ _ / / _ / / / / _ / _ / _ / / 33. lan-tern, all closed, closed, that no light shone out, and then I thrust in my head. _ _ _ _ / _ / / / _ _ _ / _ / 34. Oh, you would have laughed to see how cun-ning-ly I thrust it in! _ / _ / _ / _ / _ / _ 35. I moved it slow-ly – ver-y, ver-y slow-ly, _ / _ / / _ / _ / / / 36. so that I might not dis-turb the old man's sleep. _ / _ _ / _ / / / / _ / _ / _ _ _ / 37. It took me an hour to place my whole head with-in the o-pen-ing so far

52

_ / / / _ _ / / _ / / / 38. that I could see him as he lay up-on his bed. / / _ / \ _ _ / / / / 39. Ha! would a mad-man have been so wise as this, _ / _ / / / / _ _ / _ \ / _ / _ / _ _ 40. And then, when my head was well in the room, I un-did the lan-tern cau-tious-ly – _ / / _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ / 41. oh, so cau-tious-ly – cau-tious-ly (for the hing-es creaked) – _ \ / _ / _ / _ _ / _ / / / _ _ / _ / 42. I un-did it just so much that a sin-gle thin ray fell up-on the vul-ture eye. _ / _ / _ / _ / / / _ / / _ / \ 44. And this I did for sev-en long nights – ev-ery night just at mid-night – _ _ / _ / / _ / _ / _ / \ / _ _ _ / _ / 44. but I found the eye al-ways closed; and so it was im-pos-si-ble to do the work; _ _ / / _ / / _ / _ _ / / _ / 45. for it was not the old man who vexed me, but his E-vil Eye. _ / _ / _ / _ / / _ / / _ \ _ _ / _ 46. And ev-ery morn-ing, when the day broke, I went bold-ly in-to the cham-ber, _ / _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ / / _ _ / _ / 47. and spoke cou-ra-geous-ly to him, call-ing him by name in a hear-ty tone, _ _ / _ / _ _ / _ / 48. and in-quir-ing how he has passed the night. _ _ / _ _ _ / _ / _ _ / / / _ / 49. So you see he would have been a ve-ry pro-found old man, in-deed, _ _ / / / _ / / _ / _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ / 50. to sus-pect that ev-ery night, just at twelve, I looked in up-on him while he slept. _ / _ / / _ / / _ / _ _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _ / 51. Up-on the eighth night I was more than u-su-al-ly cau-tious in o-pen-ing the door. _ / _ / _ / / / / _ _ / / 52. A watch-'s min-ute hand moves more quick-ly than did mine.

/ _ _ / / / _ _ / _ _ / _ / / / _ 53. Nev-er be-fore that night had I felt the ex-tent of my own pow-ers – _ / _ / _ _ 54. of my sa-ga-ci-ty. _ / / _ _ / / / _ _ / _ 55. I could scarce-ly con-tain my feel-ings of tri-umph. _ / / / _ / / _ _ _ / / _ / / _ 56. To think that there I was, o-pen-ing the door, lit-tle by lit-tle, _ _ / / _ _ / _ / / _ / _ / 57. and he not e-ven to dream of my se-cret deeds or thoughts. _ / _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ / _ 58. I fair-ly chuck-led at the i-de-a; and per-haps he heard me; _ _ / / _ / / _ _ / _ / _ 59. for he moved on the bed sud-den-ly, as if start-led. _ _ / / _ _ / / _ / 60. Now you may think that I drew back – but no. / / / / / / / _ _ / / _ 61. His room was as black as pitch with the thick dark-ness, _ _ / _ / / / _ _ / _ / _ 62. (for the shut-ters were close fast-ened, through fear of rob-bers,) _ _ _ / / _ _ / / _ / _ _ _ _ / 63. and so I knew that he could not see the o-pen-ing of the door, _ _ / / _ _ / / _ _ / _ _ 64. and I kept push-ing it on stea-di-ly, stea-di-ly. _ / / / / _ _ _ / _ / _ _ / _ _ / / / _ _ 65. I had my head in, and was a-bout to o-pen the lan-tern, when my thumb slipped up-on _ / / _ _ _ _ / / / _ _ / / _ / / / 66. the tin fas-ten-ing, and the old man sprang up in bed, cry-ing out –”Who's there?” _ / / / _ / / _ 67. I kept quite still and said noth-ing. _ _ / / _ _ / / _ / _ 68. For a whole hour I did not move a mus-cle,

Page 60: TEXT AND SCANSION IN SCHOENBERG’S A SURVIVOR FROM …

54

_ _ _ / \ _ _ / / _ / / 69. and in the mean-time I did not hear him lie down. _ _ / / _ / _ _ / / _ _ / / _ _ / 70. He was still sit-ting up in the bed lis-ten-ing; – just as I have done, / / _ / / _ _ _ _ / / _ _ _ / 71. night af-ter night, heark-en-ing to the death watch-es in the wall. / _ _ _ / _ / / _ _ / _ / _ / _ / _ / _ 72. Pres-ent-ly I heard a slight groan, and I knew it was the groan of mor-tal ter-ror. _ / / _ / _ / _ _ / / / _ / _ / / _ 73. It was not a groan of pain or of grief – oh, no! – it was the low sti-fled / / _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ \ _ / _ / 74. sound that a-ris-es from the bot-tom of the soul when o-ver-charged with awe. _ / _ / / 75. I knew the sound well. / _ _ / / _ / \ _ / _ / / _ _ / _ _ / 76. Ma-ny a night, just at mid-night, when all the world slept, it has welled up from my / / _ / _ _ _ / / _ / _ _ / _ / _ / _ _ 77. own bos-om, deep-en-ing, with its dread-ful e-cho, the ter-rors that dis-tract-ed me. _ / _ / _ / 78. I say I knew it well. _ / _ _ / / / _ / _ _ _ / _ / _ _ / 79. I knew what the old man felt, and pi-tied him, al-though I chuck-led at heart. _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ / / _ _ _ / / / 80. I knew that he had been ly-ing a-wake ev-er since the first slight noise, _ _ _ / _ _ / 81. when he had turned in the bed. / / _ _ / _ / / _ _ / _ 82. His fears had been ev-er since grow-ing up-on him. _ _ _ / _ _ / _ _ / _ _ / / 83. He had been try-ing to fan-cy them cause-less, but could not.

Page 61: TEXT AND SCANSION IN SCHOENBERG’S A SURVIVOR FROM …

55

_ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ / / _ _ _ / _ _ / _ 84. He had been say-ing to him-self –”It is noth-ing but the wind in the chim-ney – _ / / _ _ / / _ _ / 85. it is on-ly a mouse cross-ing the floor,” _ _ / / _ _ / _ _ _ / _ / _ / 86. or “It is mere-ly a crick-et which has made a sin-gle chirp.” / _ _ _ / _ _ / _ _ / _ / \ _ / _ 87. Yes, he had been try-ing to com-fort him-self with these sup-po-si-tions: _ _ _ / / _ / 88. but he had found all in vain. / _ / _ / / _ _ / _ _ / / / / / / \ 89. All in vain; be-cause Death, in ap-proach-ing him had stalked with his black sha-dow _ / _ _ _ / _ _ / _ 90. be-fore him, and en-vel-oped the vic-tim. _ _ / _ / _ / \ _ _ _ \ _ / 91. And it was the mourn-ful in-flu-ence of the un-per-ceived / \ / / _ _ / 92. sha-dow that caused him to feel – _ / _ / _ / _ / 93. al-though he nei-ther saw nor heard – _ / _ / _ _ / / _ \ _ / 94. to feel the pre-sence of my head with-in the room. _ _ _ / _ _ / / / _ / _ _ _ \ / _ _ / / 95. When I had wait-ed a long time, ve-ry pa-tient-ly, with-out hear-ing him lie down, _ _ / _ / _ _ / _ _ / _ / _ / _ / _ _ _ / _ 96. I re-solved to o-pen a lit-tle – a ve-ry, ve-ry lit-tle crev-ice in the lan-tern. _ _ / _ _ _ / / _ / _ / / _ _ / _ _ 97. So I o-pened it – you can-not i-ma-gine how steal-thi-ly, steal-thi-ly – _ / _ / _ / _ / / / _ / _ _ / _ 98. un-til, at length a sim-ple dim ray, like the thread of the spi-der,

Page 62: TEXT AND SCANSION IN SCHOENBERG’S A SURVIVOR FROM …

56

/ _ / _ / _ _ / / _ \ _ / _ / 99. shot from out the crev-ice and fell full up-on the vul-ture eye. _ / / _ / / / _ _ _ / / _ _ \ _ / _ \ _ 100. It was o-pen – wide, wide o-pen – and I grew fu-ri-ous as I gazed up-on it. _ / _ _ / _ _ / _ 101. I saw it with per-fect dis-tinct-ness – / _ / / _ _ / _ _ / / _ _ / / 102. all a dull blue, with a hid-e-ous veil o-ver it that chilled _ / _ / \ _ / / 103. the ve-ry mar-row in my bones; _ _ _ / / _ / _ _ / / / _ / _ 104. but I could see noth-ing else of the old man's face or per-son: _ _ _ _ / _ _ / / _ / / \ _ / _ _ \ _ / / 105. for I had di-rect-ed the ray as if by in-stinct, pre-cise-ly up-on the damned spot. _ _ _ / / _ / _ _ _ / _ / _ 106. And have I not told you that what you mis-take for mad-ness / _ / _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ / / / _ / / _ / 107. is but o-ver-a-cute-ness of the sense? – now, I say, there came to my ears a low, / / / / / _ / / _ _ / _ _ / _ 108. dull, quick sound, such as a watch makes when en-vel-oped in cot-ton. _ / / / / / 109. I knew that sound well, too. _ / _ / _ _ _ / / / 110. It was the beat-ing of the old man's heart. _ _ / / / _ 111. It in-creased my fu-ry, _ _ / _ _ _ / / _ \ _ / _ \ _ / _ 112. as the beat-ing of a drum stim-u-lates the sol-dier in-to cour-age. _ / _ / _ _ / _ / / 113. But ev-en yet I re-frained and kept still.

Page 63: TEXT AND SCANSION IN SCHOENBERG’S A SURVIVOR FROM …

57

_ / _ / 114. I scarce-ly breathed. _ / _ / _ / _ _ 115. I held the lan-tern mo-tion-less. _ / / / _ _ / / _ / _ / _ / _ / 116. I tried how stea-di-ly I could main-tain the ray up-on the eye. / \ _ / _ _ / _ _ / _ / 117. Mean-time the hell-ish tat-too of the heart in-creased. _ / / _ _ / _ _ / _ _ / _ / _ / _ 118. It grew quick-er and quick-er, and loud-er and loud-er ev-ery in-stant. _ / / / _ _ _ / _ / 119. The old man's ter-ror must have been ex-treme! _ / / _ _ / / _ / _ / _ 120. It grew loud-er, I say, loud-er ev-ery mo-ment! – _ _ / _ / _ _ / _ / _ / / _ / _ / 121. do you mark me well I have told you that I am ner-vous: so I am. _ / _ _ / / _ _ / 122. And now at the dead hour of the night, _ / _ / _ / _ _ / / / 123. a-mid the dread-ful si-lence of that old house, / / _ / / / _ / _ / _ \ _ / _ _ / _ 124. so strange a noise as this ex-cit-ed me to un-con-trol-la-ble ter-ror. _ _ / / _ / _ _ _ / _ / / 125. Yet, for some min-utes long-er I re-frained and stood still. _ _ / _ / / _ / _ 126. But the beat-ing grew loud-er, loud-er! _ / _ / / / 127. I thought the heart must burst. _ / _ / _ / _ / / / _ / / / / / _ / _ 128. And now a new an-xi-e-ty seized me – the sound would be heard by a neigh-bour!

Page 64: TEXT AND SCANSION IN SCHOENBERG’S A SURVIVOR FROM …

58

_ / / / _ / 129. The old man's hour had come! _ _ / / _ / / _ _ / _ _ / \ _ _ / 130. With a loud yell, I threw o-pen the lan-tern and leaped in-to the room. / / / / / _ 131. He shrieked once – once on-ly. _ _ / _ _ / / _ _ / _ / _ / _ / / _ / 132. In an in-stant I dragged him to the floor, and pulled the hea-vy bed o-ver him. _ _ / / _ _ / _ / / / / 133. I then smiled gai-ly, to find the deed so far done. _ / / _ / _ _ / / / _ _ / _ / 134. But, for ma-ny min-utes, the heart beat on with a muf-fled sound. / _ / _ _ / / _ _ / / _ / / _ / 135. This, how-ev-er, did not vex me; it would not be heard through the wall. _ / _ / 136. At length it ceased. _ / / / / 137. The old man was dead. _ _ / _ / _ _ / _ _ / 138. I re-moved the bed and ex-am-ined the corpse. / _ / / / / 139. Yes, he was stone, stone dead. _ / / / _ / _ / _ / _ / / _ / _ 140. I placed my hand up-on the heart and held it there ma-ny min-utes. / / / \ / _ 141. There was no pul-sa-tion. / / / / 142. He was stone dead. / / / / _ / / / 143. His eye would trou-ble me no more.

_ / / / / / 144. If still you think me mad, / / / / / / _ / _ _ / _ / 145. you will think so no long-er when I de-scribe the wise _ / _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ 146. pre-cau-tions I took for the con-ceal-ment of the bo-dy. _ / / _ _ / / _ _ _ _ / _ 147. The night waned, and I worked hast-i-ly, but in si-lence. / _ / _ \ / _ _ / 148. First of all I dis-mem-bered the corpse. _ / / _ / _ _ / _ _ / 149. I cut off the head and the arms and the legs. _ / / / / / / _ / _ _ _ / _ 150. I then took up three planks from the floor-ing of the cham-ber, _ _ / _ _ / _ / _ / _ 151. and de-po-sit-ed all be-tween the scant-lings. _ / _ / _ / / / _ _ / / _ _ / / / _ / 152. I then re-placed the boards so clev-er-ly, so cun-ning-ly, that no hu-man eye – / / _ / _ _ _ / _ / _ \ _ 153. not ev-en his – could have de-tect-ed a-ny-thing wrong. / / / _ _ / / / / _ / _ / / / / _ / _ 154. There was noth-ing to wash out – no stain of a-ny kind – no blood-spot what-ev-er. _ _ _ / / _ _ / 155. I had been too war-y for that. _ / _ / / / / 156. A tub had caught all – ha! ha! / _ _ / _ / _ / / _ _ / / _ / 157. When I had made an end of these la-bors, it was four o'-clock – / / _ / \ 158. still dark as mid-night.

Page 66: TEXT AND SCANSION IN SCHOENBERG’S A SURVIVOR FROM …

\ _ / / _ _ / / / _ / _ _ _ / / 159. As the bell sound-ed the hour, there came a knock-ing at the street door. / _ / _ / _ / / _ / / _ / / _ / _ / 160. I went down to o-pen it with a light heart, – for what had I now to fear? / / _ / / _ \ _ / _ / 161. There en-tered three men, who in-tro-duced them-selves, / / _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ / 162. with per-fect suav-i-ty, as of-fi-cers of the po-lice. _ / _ _ / / _ / _ / _ _ / 163. A shriek had been heard by a neigh-bor dur-ing the night; _ / _ _ / / _ _ _ / 164. sus-pi-cion of foul play had been a-roused; \ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ / / _ 165. in-for-ma-tion had been lodged at the po-lice of-fice, _ / _ / _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ / _ / _ _ 166. and they (the of-fi-cers) had been de-put-ed to search the pre-mis-es. _ / _ / / _ _ / 167. I smiled, – for what had I to fear? _ / _ / _ _ / _ 168. I bade the gent-le-men wel-come. _ / _ / / / / _ _ / 169. The shriek, I said, was my own in a dream. _ / / _ / _ / / _ _ _ / _ 170. The old man, I men-tioned, was ab-sent in the coun-try. _ / / / _ _ / / _ _ / 171. I took my vis-i-tors all o-ver the house. _ / / / / / 172. I bade them search – search well. _ / _ _ / _ / / _ 173. I led them, at length, to his cham-ber.

Page 67: TEXT AND SCANSION IN SCHOENBERG’S A SURVIVOR FROM …

61

_ / / / / _ _ / \ _ / 174. I showed them his trea-sures, se-cure, un-dis-turbed. _ _ _ / _ \ _ / / _ \ _ / / \ _ _ / 175. In the en-thu-si-asm of my con-fi-dence, I brought chairs in-to the room, _ _ / / / _ / / / _ / / _ _ / 176. and de-sired them here to rest from their fa-tigues, while I my-self, _ _ / _ / _ _ _ / / _ / _ 177. in the wild au-da-ci-ty of my per-fect tri-umph, / / / / _ / _ / _ / _ / 178. placed my own seat up-on the ve-ry spot be-neath / _ / _ / _ _ / _ 179. which re-posed the corpse of the vic-tim. _ / _ _ / / _ \ 180. The of-fi-cers were sat-is-fied. / / _ _ _ / _ 181. My man-ner had con-vinced them. _ / / _ _ _ _ / 182. I was sin-gu-lar-ly at ease. / / _ / _ / _ / _ _ / / _ _ _ / _ / 183. They sat, and while I an-swered cheer-i-ly, they chat-ted of fa-mil-iar things. _ / / _ / _ / / _ / _ / / / 184. But, ere long, I felt my-self get-ting pale and wished them gone. / / / _ _ / _ _ / _ _ / / 185. My head ached, and I fan-cied a ring-ing in my ears: _ / / / _ / / _ 186. but still they sat and still chat-ted. _ / _ _ / / _ / _ _ / \ _ _ / / _ / 187. The ring-ing be-came more dis-tinct: – It con-tin-ued and be-came more dis-tinct: _ / / / _ _ / / _ _ / _ 188. I talked more free-ly to get rid of the feel-ing:

Page 68: TEXT AND SCANSION IN SCHOENBERG’S A SURVIVOR FROM …

62

_ _ _ / \ _ / / _ _ _ 189. but it con-tin-ued and gained def-i-nite-ness – _ / _ / _ / / _ / / / _ / / / 190. un-til, at length, I found that the noise was not with-in my ears. / / _ / / / _ / 191. No doubt I now grew ve-ry pale; – _ _ / / / _ _ _ / _ / _ / 192. but I talked more flu-ent-ly, and with a height-ened voice. / _ / _ / _ / _ _ / 193. Yet the sound in-creased – and what could I do? / / _ / / / / 194. It was a low, dull, quick sound – / / _ / \ _ / / / _ / _ _ / _ 195. much such a sound as a watch makes when en-vel-oped in cot-ton. _ / _ / _ / _ / _ _ / / / 196. I gasped for breath – and yet the of-fi-cers heard it not. _ / / / _ / / _ _ _ _ _ / / _ _ _ / 197. I talked more quick-ly – more ve-he-ment-ly; but the noise stead-i-ly in-creased. _ _ / _ / \ _ / / _ 198. I a-rose and ar-gued a-bout tri-fles, _ _ / / _ / / _ _ _ \ _ / _ 199. in a high key and with vi-o-lent ges-tic-u-la-tions; _ _ / / _ _ _ / 200. but the noise stead-i-ly in-creased. / / / / _ / 201. Why would they not be gone? _ / _ / _ _ _ / / _ / 202. I paced the floor to and fro with hea-vy strides, / _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _ \ _ / _ _ _ / 203. as if ex-cit-ed to fu-ry by the ob-ser-va-tions of the men –

Page 69: TEXT AND SCANSION IN SCHOENBERG’S A SURVIVOR FROM …

63

_ _ / / _ _ _ / 204. but the noise stead-i-ly in-creased. / / / _ _ / 205. Oh God! what could I do? _ / _ / _ / 206. I foamed – I raved – I swore! _ / _ / _ / / _ _ _ / _ 207. I swung the chair up-on which I had been sit-ting, _ / _ / _ / _ / 208. and grat-ed it up-on the boards, _ _ / _ / / _ / _ _ / _ _ _ _ / 209. but the noise a-rose ov-er all and con-tin-u-al-ly in-creased. _ / / _ / _ / _ 210. It grew loud-er – loud-er – loud-er! _ / _ / / _ / _ _ _ / 211. And still the men chat-ted pleas-ant-ly, and smiled. / / / _ _ / / / 212. Was it pos-si-ble they heard not? _ / _ / / / 213. Al-migh-ty God! – no, no! _ / _ _ / _ _ / 214. They heard! – they sus-pect-ed! – they knew! – _ _ / _ _ / _ _ / / _ / _ / _ / _ / 215. they were mak-ing a mock-ery of my hor-ror! – this I thought, and this I think. _ / _ \ / / _ / / / _ _ 216. But a-ny-thing was bet-ter than this ag-o-ny! / _ \ / / / _ _ _ _ / _ / _ 217. A-ny-thing was more tol-er-a-ble than this de-ri-sion! _ / / / \ _ / _ _ / / / _ 218. I could bear those hyp-o-crit-i-cal smiles no long-er!

_ / / _ / / _ / 219. I felt that I must scream or die! _ / _ / / / _ / _ / _ / _ 220. and now – a-gain! – hark! loud-er! loud-er! loud-er! loud-er! / _ _ / _ / _ / / _ _ / _ / 221. “Vil-lains!” I shrieked, “dis-sem-ble no more! I ad-mit the deed! – / / _ / / / _ / _ / _ _ / / _ / 222. tear up the planks! here, here! – It is the beat-ing of his hid-eous heart!”

Individual blocks of text should begin to be read where they appear in the score and can occupy the full time until the next block of text occurs. The soloist has some freedom in terms of pacing. In mm. 275–301, accelerating while speaking is expected and prefered to create tension.

Directions for Sprechstimme: X-shaped noteheads indicate Sprechstimme (speak-singing). Inflections of mood and rhythm are more important than precise pitch.

Instrument instructions: • Brass players will only use a straight mute when con sord appears. • The soprano and alto saxophones are instructed to perform a multiphonic twice: m. 48 and m. 260. The multiphonic should sound like that of a vulture’s squawk.

Notes for octave transpositions: • The score is in concert pitch (C score). • The bass clarinet sounds an octave lower than written. • The contrabass clarinet sounds two octaves lower that written. • The xylophone sound an octave higher than written. • The celesta sounds an octave higher than written.

Directions for vamps: • For the passage at m. 49, repeat as needed to get through the text. • Two larger sections (beginning at m. 68 = cue A and at m. 506 = cue I) are performed senza misura until told to be "in time." The conductor should cue each letter whenever the baritone soloist concludes the text above the measure(s). Players should conclude the bracketed motive when then next cue is given unless instructed to continue.
