The Reception of Bach's Organ Works from Mendelssohn to Brahms
ISBN: 9780195171099 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In this penetrating study, Russell Stinson explores how four of the greatest composers of the nineteenth century--Felix Mendelssohn, Robert Schumann, Franz Liszt, and Johannes Brahms--responded to the model of Bach's organ music.

Furthermore, the book reveals how these four titans influenced one another as...

The Tragic and the Ecstatic: The Musical Revolution of Wagner's Tristan and Isolde
ISBN: 9780195176476 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 344 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. During the years preceding the composition of Tristan and Isolde, Wagner's aesthetics underwent a momentous turnaround, principally as a result of his discovery of Schopenhauer. Many of Schopenhauer's ideas, especially those regarding music's metaphysical significance, resonated with patterns of thought that had long been central to Wagner's aesthetics, and Wagner described the entry of Schopenhauer into his life as "a gift from heaven." Chafe argues that Wagner's Tristan and Isolde is a musical and dramatic exposition of metaphysical ideas inspired by Schopenhauer. The...

Understanding French Verse: A Guide for Singers
ISBN: 9780195177169 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Advice to young singers often follows the standard line of the great French singer Claire Croiza: "Study the poem away from the music, so that you know what the words really mean." But Croiza's advice is notoriously difficult to follow when performing French melodies. Just how do you approach a French poem? In the lyric poetry on which the melodie is based, meaning is conveyed not just through the words but also through the poem's formal structure. Understanding French Verse: A Guide for Singers explains this formal structure and sets out the basics of French...

All Shook Up: How Rock 'n' Roll Changed America
ISBN: 9780195177497 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 226 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The birth of rock 'n roll ignited a firestorm of controversy--one critic called it "musical riots put to a switchblade beat"--but if it generated much sound and fury, what, if anything, did it signify? As Glenn Altschuler reveals in All Shook Up, the rise of rock 'n roll--and the outraged reception to it--in fact can tell us a lot about the values of the United States in the 1950s, a decade that saw a great struggle for the control of popular culture. Altschuler shows, in particular, how rock's "switchblade beat" opened up wide fissures in American society along the fault-lines...
