The Broadway Musical: A Critical and Musical Survey
ISBN: 9780810843769 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 464 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. To see a Broadway musical is to experience how a drama, using melody, harmony, and rhythm, evokes the emotion needed to perpetuate a story line. Without music, many of these plays would not succeed, failing to convey the intended message. This new edition of Swain's classic text, winner of the 1991 ASCAP Deems Taylor Award, reveals how a musical drama achieves plot movement, character development and conflict through strategic placement of song and music in 20 musical plays. Unlike critical literature that has simply explored theatrical style and production histories, this survey focuses...

Historical Dictionary of Sacred Music
ISBN: 9781442264625 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 402 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Sacred music is a universal phenomenon of humanity. Where there is faith, there is music to express it. Every major religious tradition and most minor ones have music and have it in abundance and variety. There is music to accompany ritual and music purely for devotion, music for large congregations and music for trained soloists, music that sets holy words and music without words at all. In some traditions Islamic and many Native American, to name just two--the relation between music and religious ritual is so intimate that it is inaccurate to speak of the music accompanying the ritual....

Sacred Treasure: Understanding Catholic Liturgical Music
ISBN: 9780814662557 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In the discussions and debates surrounding liturgical music of the past fifty years, music theorists, critics, and historians have contributed little, and their counsel has rarely been sought. Whenever the matter of liturgical music arises, most often in parishes, but sometimes in episcopal conferences or in the academy or in Vatican documents, the nature of the music, as music, almost never affects the discussion. With Sacred Treasure, Joseph Swain, a distinguished musicologist and accomplished performer, attempts to change that. He offers a theory for building authentic...

Harmonic Rhythm: Analysis and Interpretation
ISBN: 9780195150872 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. An accessible exploration of an important and understudied music theory topic, Swain's book examines the dimensional technique of analyzing harmonic rhythm. Simply defined, harmonic rhythm is the relationship between changes in harmony and perceived changes in rhythm. This phenomenon plays a large role in shaping the texture and style of much of Western music, from Renaissance polyphonic pieces to the works of Debussy. Swain provides a clear and thorough discussion of how harmonic theory works, using a small core of repeated musical examples.

Historical Dictionary of Baroque Music
ISBN: 9780810878242 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 394 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Although it lies far back, running roughly from about 1600 to 1750, the Baroque period is far from forgotten and Baroque music is played widely today as well, exercising numerous musicians and attracting rather substantial audiences. It experienced the emergence of a new sort of music, increasingly secular and increasingly good listening, if you will, and also the start of opera. Some of the Baroque composers appear among the most popular of all time, such as Bach, Handel and Vivaldi. So yes, this is a book for researchers, but it is also a good book for anyone who enjoys this music. The...

The Elementary Forms of the Religious Life
ISBN: 9781614273011 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 468 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. 2012 Reprint of 1954 Edition. Exact facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. "The Elementary Forms of the Religious Life" analyzes religion as a social phenomenon. Durkheim attributes the development of religion to the emotional security attained through communal living. According to Durkheim, early humans associated such feelings not only with one another, but with objects in their environment. This, Durkheim believed, led to the ascription of human sentiments and superhuman powers to these objects, in turn leading to totemism. The essence of...
