Book Mozart s Piano Concertos

Download or read book Mozart s Piano Concertos written by Marius Flothuis and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-11-22 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mozart’s Piano Concertos, especially those composed during the years 1784-’91, are still held in high esteem, two centuries later, by both amateur music-lovers and professional musicians. Strangely enough, only very few comprehensive studies exist on this remarkable section of Mozart’s output. The present study, first published in German in a slightly abridged form, deals with Mozart’s evolution as a composer of piano concertos; sheds light on the connections between the concertos and other fields of creative activity, as well as on those with other composers of his time. Finally, attention is paid to problems of performance practice. The author, born in 1914, emeritus professor of Utrecht University and former chairman of the Zentralinstitut für Mozart-Forschung, Salzburg, has been involved with the subject of Mozart’s concertos for about 60 years.

  • Author : John Irving
  • Publisher : Routledge
  • Release : 2017-07-05
  • ISBN : 1351557890
  • Pages : 297 pages

Download or read book Mozart s Piano Concertos written by John Irving and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mozart's piano concertos stand alongside his operas and symphonies as his most frequently performed and best loved music. They have attracted the attention of generations of musicologists who have explored their manifold meanings from a variety of viewpoints. In this study, John Irving brings together the various strands of scholarship surrounding Mozart's concertos including analytical approaches, aspects of performance practice and issues of compositional genesis based on investigation of manuscript and early printed editions. Treating the concertos collectively as a repertoire, rather than as individual works, the first section of the book tackles broad thematic issues such as the role of the piano concerto in Mozart's quasi-freelance life in late eighteenth-century Vienna, the origin of his concertos in earlier traditions of concerto writing; eighteenth-century theoretical frameworks for the understanding of movement forms, subsequent historical shifts in the perception of the concerto's form, listening strategies and performance practices. This is followed by a 'documentary register' which proceeds through all 23 original works, drawing together information on the source materials. Accounts of the concertos' compositional genesis, early performance history and reception are also included here, drawing extensively on the Mozart family correspondence and other contemporary reports. Drawing together and synthesizing this wealth of material, Irving provides an invaluable reference source for those already familiar with this repertoire.

Book Understanding Mozart s Piano Sonatas

Download or read book Understanding Mozart s Piano Sonatas written by John Irving and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-02-24 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mozart's piano sonatas are among the most familiar of his works and stand alongside those of Haydn and Beethoven as staples of the pianist's repertoire. In this study, John Irving looks at a wide selection of contextual situations for Mozart's sonatas, focusing on the variety of ways in which they assume identities and achieve meanings. In particular, the book seeks to establish the provisionality of the sonatas' notated texts, suggesting that the texts are not so much identifiers as possibilities and that their identity resides in the usage. Close attention is paid to reception matters, analytical approaches, organology, the role of autograph manuscripts, early editions and editors, and aspects of historical performance practice - all of which go beyond the texts in opening windows onto Mozart's sonatas. Treating the sonatas collectively as a repertoire, rather than as individual works, the book surveys broad thematic issues such as the role of historical writing about music in defining a generic space for Mozart's sonatas, their construction within pedagogical traditions, the significance of sound as opposed to sight in these works (and in particular their sound on fortepianos of the later eighteenth-century) , and the creative role of the performer in their representation beyond the frame of the text. Drawing together and synthesizing this wealth of material, Irving provides an invaluable reference source for those already familiar with this repertoire.

Book Mozart s Concerto Form

Download or read book Mozart s Concerto Form written by Denis Forman and published by New York : Praeger. This book was released on 1971 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first truly comprehensive analysis of the first movements ever attempted. The beginning of the book, devoted to the evolution of Mozart's concertos, provides a discussion of the search by North German composers (including members of the Bach family) for a concerto form that would give more prominence to solo instruments, a critical element in the development of the extended aria. Against this background, the author then discusses the evolution of Mozart's concertos in terms of the six early works based on Johann Christian Bach's London Galant form, the innovative principles and methods present in the seven "Melodic" concertos, and the absolute departure from both Galant and Melodic works evident in the last four concertos, which are truly symphonic, differing from all of Mozart's previous concertos "in scale, texture and structure, and employing a different method of treating thematic material". The second section of the book, a detailed, lucid, and stimulating exposition of all the first movements, discusses Mozart's compositional technique and his conception of the purpose of concerto composition.

  • Author : William Kinderman

  • Release : 2006-11-30
  • ISBN : 0199880166
  • Pages : 652 pages

Download or read book Mozart s Piano Music written by William Kinderman and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2006-11-30 with total page 652 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mozart's emergence as a mature artist coincides with the rise to prominence of the piano, an instrument that came alive under his fingers and served as medium for many of his finest compositions. In Mozart's Piano Music, William Kinderman reconsiders common assumptions about Mozart's life and art while offering comprehensive and incisive commentary on the solo music and concertos. After placing Mozart's pianistic legacy in its larger biographical and cultural context, Kinderman addresses the lively gestural and structural aspects of Mozart's musical language and explores the nature of his creative process. Incorporating the most recent research throughout this encompassing study, Kinderman expertly surveys each of the major genres of the keyboard music, including the four-hand and two-piano works. Beyond examining issues such as Mozart's earliest childhood compositions, his musical rhetoric and expression, the social context of his Viennese concertos, and affinities between his piano works and operas, Kinderman's main emphasis falls on detailed discussion of selected individual compositions.
