The music of Franz Liszt has become widely recognized by music theorists for its harmonic and formal innovations. However, li)le a)ention has been given to adventurous rhythmic/metric aspects of Liszt’s compositional style: specifically, he frequently incorporates rich metric structures in which the notated metric layer, indicated by time signatures and bars, and heard metric layer, given by cues in the sounding music, are locked in an evolving conflict. To model such interactions, this article develops a new analytical system based on Lewin’s generalized interval system (GIS) concept, constructing a new three-component metric direct product GIS called Met. The article then introduces specialized techniques including intervallic decomposition, expansion, and contraction that allow the analyst to organize, compare, and relate diverse Met intervals. The remainder of the article applies this new system to preliminary analyses of Liszt’s “Wilde Jagd” and “Invocation,” providing significant local and global insights into these works’ metric structures and suggesting new possibilities for metric analysis.

李斯特中度量冲突的广义区间方法

弗朗茨·李斯特 (Franz Liszt) 的音乐因其和谐和形式上的创新而受到音乐理论家的广泛认可。然而，li)le a) 提到了李斯特作曲风格的冒险节奏/度量方面：具体来说，他经常结合丰富的度量结构，其中标记的度量层，由拍号和小节表示，听到的度量层，给定通过音乐中的提示，被锁定在不断发展的冲突中。为了对这种相互作用进行建模，本文基于 Lewin 的广义区间系统 (GIS) 概念开发了一个新的分析系统，构建了一个新的三分量度量直积 GIS，称为 Met。然后，本文介绍了专业技术，包括区间分解、扩展和收缩，这些技术使分析师能够组织、比较和关联不同的 Met 区间。
