Connecticut's Fife & Drum Tradition
ISBN: 9780819571410 / Angielski / Twarda / 196 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The state of Connecticut boasts an extensive and active community of fife and drum groups. This musical tradition has its origins in the small military bands maintained by standing armies in Britain and Europe in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries--the drum was especially important as it helped officers train soldiers how to march, and was also used to communicate with troops across battlefields.

Evenings at the Opera: An Exploration of the Basic Repertoire is a collection of essays based on Jeffery Langford's lectures at the Manhattan School of Music and inspired by his pre-performance talks at the Metropolitan Opera Guild.

Taking a thematic (rather than a purely historical) approach to this exploration of selected...

Music and Jewish Religious Experience
ISBN: 9783639301311 / Angielski / Miękka / 116 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Music and Jewish Religious Experience offers six studies on specific aspects and functions of Jewish sacred music, both social and theological. Rather than following a single theme or building on a sustained thesis, this book covers a variety of subjects, ranging from music and prophecy to social uses of synagogue song. Each chapter can be read on its own, and is intended to stimulate thought-and hopefully further research-on its particular topic. Taken as a whole, these independent studies reveal the complexity and diversity of types, contexts, and uses of Jewish sacred music. The central...

Figure emblA(c)matique de la fin de siA]cle viennoise, le compositeur Gustav Mahler (1860-1911) se veut philosophe en mAame temps que musicien.

First performed at the midpoint of the twentieth century, John Cage's 4'33", a composition conceived of without a single musical note, is among the most celebrated and ballyhooed cultural gestures in the history of modern music. A meditation on the act of listening and the nature of performance, Cage's controversial piece became the iconic statement of the meaning of silence in art and is a landmark work of American music. In this book, Kyle Gann, one of the nation's leading music critics, explains 4'33" as a unique moment in American culture and musical...

The Invention of 'Folk Music' and 'Art Music': Emerging Categories from Ossian to Wagner
ISBN: 9780521178341 / Angielski / Miękka / 300 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. We tend to take for granted the labels we put to different forms of music. This study considers the origins and implications of the way in which we categorize music. Whereas earlier ways of classifying music were based on its different functions, for the past two hundred years we have been obsessed with creativity and musical origins, and classify music along these lines. Matthew Gelbart argues that folk music and art music became meaningful concepts only in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, and only in relation to each other. He examines how cultural nationalism served as...

Das Klaviertrioschaffen Haydns und Mozarts wurde in der musikwissenschaftlichen Literatur bisher eher beiläufig beleuchtet. Diese Untersuchung widmet sich dem gattungsbezogenen Schaffen dieser beiden Klassiker und versucht, sowohl die Vorgeschichte der Gattung vor Haydn und Mozart zu beleuchten, als auch an ausgesuchten Beispielen Tendenzen aufzuzeigen, die sowohl für die spätere Entwicklung der Gattung als auch innerhalb des Gattungsschaffens der Komponisten von Interesse sind. Auch Vergleiche zu unbekannteren Zeitgenossen fehlen nicht, um ihr Schaffen in einen größeren Kontext...

Mozart
ISBN: 9783898068703 / Niemiecki / Twarda / 686 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Wussten wir nicht bereits alles uber Mozart? Bernd Oberhoffs Mozart-Studie ladt zu neuen Entdeckungen ein. Der Autor raumt mit dem Vorurteil auf, dass Mozarts Kompositionen nichts mit seiner Person zu tun hatten. Diese Fehleinschatzung konnte nur dadurch entstehen, dass man den Zusammenhang zwischen Schopfer und Schopfung auf der Ebene des bewussten Kalkuls suchte. Doch dort ist er nicht zu finden. Erst ein Abstieg in tiefere Schichten von Komponist und Werk lasst erkennen, wo Mozarts Musik von ihrem Schopfer spricht. Der Autor macht Ernst mit Robert Schumanns Ausspruch: Wir wurden...
