Abstract

This thesis provides an analysis and performance guide to Vinko Globokar’s solo oboe work Atemstudie. As both of Globokar’s oboe works—Discours III for five oboes (1969) and Atemstudie for solo oboe (1971)—were written for Heinz Holliger, and composed in close proximity, I will elucidate their relationship with an overview of Discours III. While current scholarship provides analyses of some of Globokar’s works, as well as his thoughts on improvisation, no such analysis exists for Atemstudie or its treatment of the oboe. My interviews with Globokar regarding these topics will expand upon the currently available scholarship contributing otherwise unwritten experiences and performance expectations. With a greater understanding of Vinko Globokar and the historical context of these works, the intent and spirit of his compositions can be more fully realized.
