Structure and Perception in Herma by Iannis Xenakis
View through CrossRef
This paper presents a detailed analytical discussion of
Herma (1961) for solo piano by Iannis Xenakis. The model of the work as a
set-theoretic demonstration, advanced in the writings of the composer, is
discussed. A statistical analysis reveals numerous inconsistencies between the
published score and this model. The aesthetic consequences of these are
explored, and an attempt is made to develop an alternative understanding of the
music as it is perceived by listeners in terms of temporal gestalt
formation.
