Download or read book Maurice Ravel written by Benjamin Ivry and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maurice Ravel: A Life is the first convincing attempt to paint a portrait of the life and work of the hitherto enigmatic composer of Bolero, Piano Concerto for the Left Hand, and L'enfant Et Les Sortileges. Ivry offers here a convincing solution to the much-discussed "mystery" of Ravel's sexuality. More than simply "outing" Ravel as a gay man for the first time among numerous writers on this composer, this book discusses how his secretive sexuality impacted his work. Using unpublished documents, letters, articles and memoirs, many of which were previously unknown even to Arbie Orenstein, universally considered the world's leading scholar of Ravel studies, Ivry presents a more rounded view of Ravel, man and musician. Descriptions of musical works are in non-technical language, friendly to the reader with no specialized knowledge of classical music. Like Ivry's widely acclaimed biography of Poulenc, universally seen as the standard life of this composer in any language, his new Ravel is likely to become a classic of contemporary musical biography.
Download or read book Maurice Ravel written by Victor Seroff and published by . This book was released on 1953 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This biography of Maurice Ravel is the result of several years' penetrating research, not only on the influences and meanings of Ravel's particular genius, but on the carefully guarded personal life of the great French musician. It is the only study of the modern French master available in English. Although born in the Basque village of Ciboure near the border of Spain, Ravel was raised in the Montmartre district of Paris and became the epitome of the sophisticated, elegant Parisian. He was a fastidious and sartorially resplendent little man (he was but five feet tall) who, aside from his music, delighted in children, in Parisian night life, and in travels to Spain, Africa, England, and the United States. But Ravel the composer studied and worked and developed as though oblivious of the ferment his 'division of the laws of harmony' caused. A mild man, he nevertheless perpetrated violent reactions and caused three famous affaires Ravel. The first was his unfair exclusion from the Prix de Rome contest. The second, the celebrated newspaper controversy of Ravel and Debussy, is available here in book form for the first time. Ravel's third affaire was his sensational refusal of the Légion d'Honneur. Ravel's undeniable gifts as a musical innovator were inspired by his teachers, Fauré and Satie, and developed during one of the most artistically productive and revolutionary periods of the twentieth century. Compared to many composers, Ravel's musical output was small. He was an extremely careful and painstaking worker, but his working habits did not curb his own inventiveness nor affect his infinite versatility. A list of Ravel's compositions is both distinguished and varied, ranging from small pieces for the piano (Pavane pour une Infante défunte, the three pieces that comprise the Gaspard de la Nuit) to piano concertos (one of the two being the miraculous Concerto for the Left Hand Alone); art songs (in the Spanish, Hebraic, Greek, Russian, Italian, Scottish, and Madagascan manners); music for the theater (Daphnis et Chloë, La Valse, Boléro); orchestrations (Schumann's Carnaval, Mussorgsky's Pictures at an Exhibition); and chamber music (one trio, one quartet)." --Dust jacket.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Serving Genius tells the life story of Carlo Maria Giulini, one of the most renowned and beloved conductors of the twentieth century. Detailing Giulini's extraordinary professional career, Thomas D. Saler also chronicles Giulini's personal life, including his musical awakening while growing up amid the spectacular beauty of the Dolomite mountains, his years as a student in Rome's Academy of St. Cecilia, his conscription into the Italian army during World War II, his nine months in hiding for his anti-fascist and pacifist beliefs, and his selfless devotion to his wife, Marcella. A humble master who shunned the limelight, Giulini took a deeply emotional and subjective approach to making music. Saler provides uniquely detailed analysis of Giulini's nuanced musicianship and the way he conveyed that musicianship to the orchestra through physical gestures. Meditating on the very art of conducting at which Giulini excelled, Saler discusses each of the conductor's major musical appointments, including stints with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, Philharmonia Orchestra, Vienna Symphony, and Los Angeles Philharmonic. The book also addresses his repertoire of choice, leadership style, and moral framework. Drawing on extensive interviews with Giulini's family, music critics, arts administrators, orchestra members, and collaborating soloists, Serving Genius draws out the personal amid the professional life of this giant among twentieth-century conductors.
