The Music of Conlon Nancarrow
ISBN: 9780521028073 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 316 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Conlon Nancarrow has written the most rhythmically complex music the world has ever known, so complex that it can only be realized on a mechanical player piano. Yet Nancarrow's whirlwinds of notes, sometimes as many as eighty per second, are jazzy and infectiously joyous. The music he composed in almost complete isolation from 1940 on has only recently achieved international fame, and this is the first book to cover in detail Nancarrow's life and compositional achievements. The book includes analysis of sixty-five works and previously unpublished biographical information.

The Music of Harrison Birtwistle
ISBN: 9780521027809 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 260 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Harrison Birtwistle (1934- ) is one of the most eminent and acclaimed of contemporary British composers. This is the first book to provide a comprehensive view of his large and varied output, containing descriptions of every published work, and also a number of withdrawn and unpublished pieces. The book is structured around a number of broad themes--theater, song, time and texture--themes of significance to Birtwistle, but also to much other music. This approach avoids in-depth technical analysis, and Dr. Adlington focuses instead on the music's wider cultural significance.

ISBN: 9780521031134 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych.

The first details the attitudes towards musical conservatism and innovation adopted by cultural strategists representing Western and Soviet ideological interests at the onset of the Cold War. The second, which draws upon the commentaries of Adorno and Sartre, recognizes that the Cold War generated a heightened political awareness among French musicians precisely when the social relevance of avant-garde music had become the subject of...
