The topic of this thesis is the analysis of《Burning Gandha》, a composition for solo
flute with live electronics in real-time. The analysis of this composition can be broken
down into five areas of study: extra-musical ideas, structural analysis, analysis of
contemporary extended techniques used in the composition, melodic and rhythmic
musical material, and the use of real-time electronics in combination with the
instrument.
The analysis shows that clear structural outlines are presented in the musical form
which relates to the composer’s ideas about the process of burning incense. The piece is
divided into three main musical sections based on the three stages of this process:
burning incense, atmosphere of relaxation and termination of burning incense. The
modern extended techniques for flute and the real-time processing techniques are
employed for a wider diversity of musical timbres, while the melodies and rhythms
draw from a variety of personal influences.
The analysis presents a musical interpretation about burning incense which is an
activity in the composer’s daily life. The analysis discusses how the composer musically
expresses the idea of burning incense through the use of real-time audio processing
with a live instrument, along with a discussion of what electronic effects were used and
how they were musically applied.
