Abstract

Analysis of Alfred Schnittke’s “Concerto for Viola and Orchestra” in Terms of Composition Techniques

Alfred Schnittke showed a new attitude in XX. century Russian music. In his "Concerto for Viola and Orchestra", his compositional techniques and the use of solo instrument has revealed his individual attitude which he has developed over years and formed during the "maturity" period. In A. Schnittke's "Concerto for Viola and Orchestra", the second theme given in Mozart style reveals the polistilism of the composition. In this concerto the use of twelve-tone scales consist of the letters from violist Yuri Bashmet’s surname, has added a new dimension to music. It is thought that this will be a study that enriches the viola repertoire and may guide performers by examining this composition in terms of composition techniques, the language, individual understanding and orchestra’s interaction with viola.
