The concept of intertextuality - namely, the meaning generated by
interrelations between different texts - was coined in the 1960s
among literary theorists and has been widely applied since then to
many other disciplines, including music. Intertextuality in Music:
Dialogic Composition provides a systematic investigation of musical
intertextuality not only as a general principle of musical
creativity but also as a diverse set of devices and techniques that
have been consciously developed and applied by many composers in
the pursuit of various artistic and aesthetic goals. Intertextual
techniques, as this collection reveals, have borne a wide range of
results, such as parody, paraphrase, collage and dialogues with and
between the past and present. In the age of sampling and remix
culture, the very notion of intertextuality seems to have gained
increased momentum and visibility, even though the principle of
creating new music on the basis of pre-existing music has a long
history both inside and outside the Western tradition. The book
provides a general survey of musical intertextuality, with a
special focus on music from the second half of the twentieth
century, but also including examples ranging from the nineteenth
century to the second decade of the twenty-first century. The
volume is intended to inspire and stimulate new work in
intertextual studies in music.
