Harrison Birtwistle: The Mask of Orpheus: The Mask of Orpheus
ISBN: 9780754653837 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 196 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Hailed at its premiere at the London Coliseum in 1986 as the most important musical and theatrical event of the decade, The Mask of Orpheus is undoubtedly a key work in Harrison Birtwistle's output. His subsequent stage and concert pieces demand to be evaluated in its light. Increasingly, it is also viewed as a key work in the development of opera since the Second World War, a work that pushed at the boundaries of what was possible in lyrical theatre. In its imaginative fusion of music, song, drama, myth, mime and electronics, it has become a beacon for many younger composers, and the object...

Igor Stravinsky
ISBN: 9781780234946 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: 20 dni roboczych Igor Stravinsky (1882 1971) was perhaps the twentieth century s most celebrated composer, a leading light of modernism and a restlessly creative artist. This new entry in the Critical Lives series traces the story of Stravinsky s life and work, setting him in the context of the turbulent times in which he lived. Born in Russia, Stravinsky spent most of his life in exile and while his work was deliberately cosmopolitan, the pain of estrangement nonetheless left its mark on the man and his work, distinguishable in an ever-present sense of loss. Jonathan Cross shows how that work emerged over...

The Cambridge Companion to Berg
ISBN: 9780521564892 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 324 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The world of Alban Berg is full of paradoxes, secrets and allusions, but he was able to handle emotional and moral issues at a distance and with profound sympathy. His unhurried, almost aristocratic attitude to life and his extreme self-criticism in professional matters resulted in an extraordinarily small musical output, but it includes masterpieces such as the operas Wozzeck and Lulu, and his last work, the Violin Concerto. All of Berg's substantial works are discussed in this companion, which brings together a team of experts who write from a variety of historical and critical...
