In this dissertation, I examine the interaction of concurrent musical parts in chamber music, specifically string quartets. To do this, I look at features of the individual parts, then consider how the parts are combined and how that combination affects perception of the overall ensemble. The study of part interactions is related to counterpoint, texture, and auditory streaming, all of which tend to prioritize the features of rhythm and contour. The existing terminology is not sufficient, however, and looking at the string quartets by Dmitri Shostakovich exposes some gaps especially in the definition of textural categories, while illustrating how rich a study of parts in chamber music can be. In Part I, I consider smaller-scale features that have frequently been used in studies of texture and auditory streaming. The agreed-upon extremes are clear: parts that share the same rhythm and contour together form one textural stream, and parts with different rhythms and contrasting contours are considered independently. Within that dichotomy, however, much diversity can be found. In some contexts, looking at intervals and sonorities to describe part alignment or misalignment can also be appropriate. In Part II, the focus shifts to what I call organizing factors-larger-scale features that provide a scaffolding for the listener. These include key, meter, and hypermeter. At this point, the perspective can shift from an external one (How do these parts fit together?) to a more internal one (What can a part do to establish a key or rhythm?). Here, I look at the possibilities for the specific roles of drone and accompanying patterns. I also examine how parts can work together to establish an organizing factor, as well as possible perceptual outcomes when parts suggesting different keys or meters are combined.
