Bulgarian Harmony: In Village, Wedding, and Choral Music of the Last Century
ISBN: 9781472437488 / Angielski / Twarda / 252 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. An in-depth study of the Bulgarian harmonic system is long overdue. More than two decades since the Le Mystere des Voix Bulgares choir was awarded a Grammy (1990), there is no scholarly study of the captivating sounds of Bulgarian vertical sonorities. Kalin Kirilov traces the gradual formation of a unique harmonic system that developed in three styles of Bulgarian music: village music from the 1930s to the 1990s, wedding music from the 1970s to 2000, and choral arrangements (obrabotki) - creations of the socialist period (1944-1989), popularized by Le Mystere des Voix Bulgares. Kirilov... An in-depth study of the Bulgarian harmonic system is long overdue. More than two decades since the Le Mystere des Voix Bulgares choir was awarded ... |

Die deutsche Dichtung, die Malerei und die Musik der Romantik nehmen den Wald mit einer Vehemenz und Breite in Besitz wie nie zuvor. War er bereits in Mythos und Marchen ein Durchgangstor zum Raum vor aller Zeit (Paradies oder Totenreich), auch ein Ort der Erleuchtung oder Verirrung, so wird er nun zu einer Metapher des Seins. Naturpoetisch und/oder religios aufgeladen, dient er einem kunstlerischen Initiationskonzept. Das poetische Programm suggeriert Erlosung, doch wozu und wohin? Wird es das schlafende -Lied in den Dingen-, in der unberuhrten (idyllischen oder damonisch-magischen) Waldes-...
