British Music and the French Revolution
ISBN: 9781443821100 / Twarda / 2010 / 401 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. British Music and the French Revolution investigates the nature of British musical responses to the cataclysmic political events unfolding in France during the period of 1789–1795, a time when republican and royalist agendas were in conflict in both nations. While the parallel demands for social and political change resulted from different stimuli, and were resolved very differently, the 1790s proved to be a defining period for each country.

The Solo English Cantatas and Italian Odes of Thomas A. Arne
ISBN: 9781527596993 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This study examines Thomas Arne's solo cantatas and Italian odes from musical, literary and social perspectives. Arne composed these works between 1740 and 1774. As such, they provide a means of evaluating the evolving aspects of his musical style throughout his compositional career. The Italian odes have been little-studied, but provide an important gloss on Charles Burney's comments on Arne's inability to set the Italian language. Study of the cantata texts that Arne set reveals that they are often pastiches which make use of the words of William Congreve, Alexander Pope, Christopher Smart...

Observations on the Castrati in Britain
ISBN: 9781527590830 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This book highlights the experiences of castrato singers in Britain during the long eighteenth-century. These singers stood apart from traditional cultural and sexual norms of the period by nature of their altered bodies. The work investigates the fears surrounding the possibility of Catholic influence in the nation, and the ability of sensual Italian operatic music to feminize the male population and weaken the country's leaders. The castrato as a possible romantic rival to "normal" men is also discussed, while the contributions of the castrati to cultural leadership in the areas of...
