“…"Puisqu'il s'agit d'inventorier toutes les recurrences de traits stylistics et d'en etablir la combinatoire" (Nattiez, 1972). Rouget (1961) introduced the segmentation of chants on the basis of repetition and Ruwet (1972) suggests a concise method of defining these units without ambiguity. Repetition is a means for delimiting sub-systems.…”

“…The use of repetition as a marker of semantic units is found, for example, in the work of Rouget (1961) in the segmentation of chants, Ruwet, etc. With the exception of "DA", a reminder of the 'ad hoc' quality of an interpretation, only repeated sequences of three or more alphabetic characters are accepted as significant. If we look briefly at the result this produces (Example 4) in an analysis of the beginning of Artaud's poem, the first sequence we find isolated is "ISM".…”

A methodology is elaborated such that music is seen as a hierarchical semiotic system. Some of the implications of this methodology from a generative point of view are discussed, in particular, considering electronic sound synthesis.

“…That is why we cannot, a priori, separate the musical from the acoustic: music is the sound assembled and accepted by a culture. It is to the credit of G. Rouget (1961), N. Ruwet (1972) and J.-J. Nattiez (1975) that they have put forward and perfected a procedure for analysing musical texts that is equally applicable to a Yoruba chant, a fourteenth-century Geisslerlied, Debussy's Pellias et Melisande, Brahms or Xenakis.…”

“…Too few researchers have tried to find out precisely how the concept of "music" is defined in the minds of the native population. In other words, we should find it very hard to say, no matter what population we were talking about, where music began for them and where it ended, or what line marked the transition from speech to song' (Rouget 1968(Rouget : 1344.…”
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
