Das zweifelnde Gehör. Erwartungssituationen als Module im Rahmen einer performativen Analyse tonaler und posttonaler Musik by Christian Utz

“…An examination of theories developed in cognitively oriented expectancy research reveals the desideratum of a non-schematic reflection of temporality, since intra- and extra-opus knowledge as well as local and global structures of expectancy are difficult to separate from one another in the act of listening and thus seem to be hardly reducible to simple categories in any convincing manner. Accordingly, the ›performative‹ analyses of Franz Schubert’s Symphony in B minor, D 756, and György Ligeti’s works Apparitions and Aventures concentrate on the modular character of sound-time structures and elaborate on the interaction of physiological-morphological and syntactic-metaphorical experiences of expectancy, a realm also emphasized by important compositional theories since the 1970s (Grisey, Sciarrino). …”
