碩士 === 國立臺南藝術大學 === 鋼琴伴奏合作藝術研究所 === 96 === Sergey Ivanovich Taneyev is the key composer who links the nineteenth and twentieth century music of Russian music. To be in the conflict and culture shock between western Romanticism and native Nationalism, Taneyev chose back to explore the strict counterpoint of Renaissance. He uses a scientific manner as the framework to layout themes and embellishes contents with Post-Romantic language. In three of the piano chamber works he had composed, all applying the technique of counterpoint, among the most obvious is Piano Quintet which filled musical tension and incite public feeling. This composition is an introductory study to research Taneyev’s theory of counterpoint. This thesis starts with brief introduction of Taneyev’s life and music point of view based on the development of Russian classical music. Then further discuss his three chamber music compositions for piano. At the end, the thesis go deeply into his compositional techniques on the Piano Quintet in G Minor, op. 30. From many-point of view into Taneyev, the “Russian Bach’s” world of music.
