Musicologia: Musical Knowledge from Plato to John Cage
ISBN: 9780810876965 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 542 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In Musicologia--meaning "musical reasoning" as distinct from a mere love of music--author and composer Robin Maconie takes aim against the fashionable misconception that music is empty of meaning, or "auditory cheesecake." Fresh and penetrating insights draw attention to the influence of musical analogy in the history of science and philosophy from ancient Greece to modern times. Since music has always existed, it is an expression of human consciousness. The discoveries of Pythagoras, Zeno, Kepler, Newton, and Einstein would not have been possible without a tradition of musical acoustics. The...

ISBN: 9781442272675 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 598 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. German composer Karlheinz Stockhausen was arguably the most influential figure of the European postwar avant-garde and unquestionably the most elusive and enigmatic musical thinker of a generation that includes Pierre Boulez, John Cage, and Luciano Berio. His radically new electronic and instrumental music converted Igor Stravinsky to serialism in the 1950s and has continued to inspire young composers for more than fifty years. Other Planets: The Complete Works of Karlheinz Stockhausen, 1950 2007 draws on more than fifty years of Maconie s close study of Stockhausen and functions as a...

Experiencing Stravinsky: A Listener's Companion
ISBN: 9780810884304 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 274 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Hear the name "Igor Stravinsky" and the first thing that comes to mind is a composer of ponderous, "serious" music. But did you know that Stravinsky lived much of his life in Hollywood? That he collaborated on musical projects with Pablo Picasso and George Balanchine? That his work subtly espoused deeply held political views and reflected key literary influences? That he was not only interested in the modern communication technologies of his time--sound recording, radio, television, even early computers--but wrote music that echoed their impact? In Experiencing Stravinsky, music historian...

The Concept of Music
ISBN: 9780198163886 / Angielski / Miękka / 1993 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. What is music for? How does it work? What can it teach us? Intuitively, we feel there must be answers to such questions, but they tend to be scattered throughout a wide range of different areas of study, from acoustics to music history, from psychology to composition. In this brilliant and thought-provoking book, Maconie seeks the answers to these and other fundamental questions about music, integrating music and appropriate scientific research in a new evaluation of his topic. In so doing, he argues passionately for a reappraisal of music, not as mere entertainment, but as something basic to...
