Bach's Dialogue with Modernity: Perspectives on the Passions
ISBN: 9780521883566 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 330 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Providing a detailed analysis of Bach's Passions, this 2010 book represents an important contribution to the debate about the culture of 'classical music', its origins, priorities and survival. The angles from which each chapter proceeds differ from those of a traditional music guide, by examining the Passions in the light of the mindsets of modernity, and their interplay with earlier models of thought and belief. While the historical details of Bach's composition, performance and theological context remain crucial, the foremost concern of this study is to relate these works to a historical...

ISBN: 9780521013581 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 284 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Why do we feel the need to perform music in a historically informed style? Is this need related to wider cultural concerns? In this challenging study, John Butt sums up recent debates on the nature of the early music movement, calling upon a seemingly inexhaustible fund of ideas gleaned from historical musicology, analytic philosophy, literary theory, historiography and theories of modernism and postmodernism. He develops the critical views of both supporters and detractors, claiming ultimately that it has more intellectual and artistic potential than its detractors may have assumed.
