Early Thoughts on Performance Practice
ISBN: 9781936512768 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 204 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This volume presents the early views of philosophers and musicians having to do with the general background of what is known as Performance Practice.

But there are other problems besides our inadequate notational system. These include broad issues of society, the nature of the musical instruments themselves, acoustics, how the listener's brain "hears" music and...

This book traces the history of music education from the ancient civilizations of Egypt, Greece and Rome to the modern era. The reader will see the most natural concepts of the ancient music education as it then passes through the Dark Ages when the Church made music a branch of mathematics and then through the Renaissance when formal music education meant only theoretical teaching.
