1. Kraevska, Sofia. Terra Mirabilis: A Composition for Symphony Orchestra in Three Movements.

Degree: DMA, Music Theory and Composition (Music), 2009, University of Miami

URL: https://scholarlyrepository.miami.edu/oa_dissertations/199 

Terra Mirabilis is a three-movement musical composition for symphony orchestra with piano solo inspired by natural landscapes photographed by the composer. The three movement composition and its corresponding landscapes portray three times of a day: early morning (I. The Mists), evening (II. Oceanus), and late night (III. Nocturne). Each chapter is devoted to the discussion of one movement, wherein overall concept and form are addressed, followed by detailed analyses of harmonic structure, motivic and thematic development, orchestration, and representational elements. As a complement to the score and the text, a CD-R audio recording of orchestral mock-ups accompanies this dissertation. Advisors/Committee Members: Dennis Kam, Paul Wilson, Lansing McLoskey, Thomas M. Sleeper.
