Download or read book Eric Whitacre The Seal Lullaby written by Eric Whitacre and published by Chester Music. This book was released on 2008-08-19 with total page 11 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Seal Lullaby by Eric Whitacre is a delightful, deceptively simple setting in the form of a lullaby for mixed choir and accompaniment of Rudyard Kipling's poem 'The White Seal'. This full SATB (Soprano, Alto, Tenor, Bass) choral arrangement with Piano accompaniment is accurately transcribed and appears in great quality print, with easy part writing throughout, so that singing this emotive song is as easy as possible. When Eric Whitacre was commissioned to write music for an animated feature, he was so struck by the words of Kipling's lovely poem that he immediately sat down to write a calm and subtle yet musically interesting piece. Unfortunately, the song was not used, but was later commissioned by the Towne Singers, and we are pleased to offer you this Seal Lullaby sheet music.

Download or read book Thomas Tallis and His Music in Victorian England written by Suzanne Cole and published by Boydell Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A survey of the huge importance of Thomas Tallis, the `Father of Church Music', on Victorian musical life. In Victorian England, Tallis was ever-present: in performances of his music, in accounts of his biography, and through his representation in physical monuments. Known in the nineteenth century as the 'Father of English Church Music', Tallis occupies a central position in the history of the music of the Anglican Church. This book examines in detail the reception of two works that lie at the stylistic extremes of his output: Spem in alium, revived in the 1830s, though generally not greatly admired, and the Responses, which were very popular. A close study of the performances, manuscripts and editions of these works casts light on the intersections between the antiquarian, liturgical and aesthetic goals of nineteenth-century editors and musicians. By tracing Tallis's reception in nineteenth-century England, the author charts the hold Tallis had on the Victorians and the ways in which Anglican - and English - identity was defined and challenged. Dr SUE COLE is a research associate at the Faculty of Music, University of Melbourne.

Download or read book A Sound Mind written by Paul Morley and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2020-11-10 with total page 625 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For readers of Mozart in the Jungle and Year of Wonder, a new history of and guide to classical music. Paul Morley made his name as a journalist covering the rock and pop of the 1970s and 1980s. But as his career progressed, he found himself drawn toward developing technologies, streaming platforms, and, increasingly, the music from the past that streaming services now made available. Suddenly able to access every piece Mozart or Bach had ever written and to curate playlists that worked with these musicians' themes across different performers, composers, and eras, he began to understand classical music in a whole new way and to believe that it was music at its most dramatic and revealing. In A Sound Mind, Morley takes readers along on his journey into the history and future of classical music. His descriptions, explanations, and guidance make this seemingly arcane genre more friendly to listeners and show the music's power, depth, and timeless beauty. In Morley's capable hands, the history of the classical genre is shown to be the history of all music, with these long-ago pieces influencing everyone from jazz greats to punk rockers and the pop musicians of today.

Book excerpt: Fiona Garvey, ballet dancer and recent college graduate, joins the Peace Corps to escape a painful family situation and ends up in Gabon, an African country she's never heard of, hoping its wild beauty will speak to her artist's soul. Instead Fiona quickly realizes she¿s in over her head. Her job teaching English, executed in breezy Western style, crashes hard into Africa's complicated reality.

This, along with her pale blue eyes, prompts the locals to believe she holds the power to access the spirit world. And when her former student returns, bent on confronting Fiona one last time, it is not Christophe but Fiona who can¿and must¿reach inside herself to find her own personal power and fight back.Blending humor and pathos, A DANCER¿S GUIDE TO AFRICA takes the reader along on a suspenseful, sensual journey through Africa¿s complex beauty, mystery and mysticism.
Download or read book Thomas Tallis written by John Harley and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-02-24 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Harley’s Thomas Tallis is the first full-length book to deal comprehensively with the composer’s life and works. Tallis entered the Chapel Royal in the middle of a long life, and remained there for over 40 years. During a colourful period of English history he famously served King Henry VIII and the three of Henry’s children who followed him to the throne. His importance for English music during the second half of the sixteenth century is equalled only by that of his pupil, colleague and friend William Byrd. In a series of chronological chapters, Harley describes Tallis’s career before and after he entered the Chapel. The fully considered biography is placed in the context of larger political and cultural changes of the period. Each monarch’s reign is treated with an examination of the ways in which Tallis met its particular musical needs. Consideration is given to all of Tallis’s surviving compositions, including those probably intended for patrons and amateurs beyond the court, and attention is paid to the context within which they were written. Tallis emerges as a composer whose music displays his special ability in setting words and creating ingenious musical patterns. A table places most of Tallis’s compositions in a broad chronological order.
