Download or read book Classical and Romantic Performing Practice 1750 1900 written by Clive Brown and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2004-05-20 with total page 677 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The past ten years have seen a rapidly growing interest in performing and recording Classical and Romantic music with period instruments; yet the relationship of composers' notation to performing practices during that period has received only sporadic attention from scholars, and many aspects of composers' intentions have remained uncertain. Brown here identifies areas in which musical notation conveyed rather different messages to the musicians for whom it was written than it does to modern performers, and seeks to look beyond the notation to understand how composers might have expected to hear their music realized in performance. There is ample evidence to demonstrate that, in many respects, the sound worlds in which Mozart, Beethoven, Wagner, and Brahms created their music were more radically different from ours than is generally assumed.

Book excerpt: "Mit seiner 1757 erschienenen „Anleitung zur Singkunst" knüpfte Johann Friedrich Agricola an die überaus erfolgreichen Lehrwerke von Johann Joachim Quantz („Versuch einer Anweisung die Flöte traversière zu spielen", 1752) und Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach („Versuch über die wahre Art das Clavier zu spielen", 1. Teil 1753) an. Wie diese Autoren gehörte auch der Komponist, Sänger und Publizist Agricola zu jenem Kreis aufgeklärter Musiker am preußischen Hof, die den öffentlichen Diskurs über Fragen der Musik in Berlin prägten. Die „Anleitung zur Singkunst" stellt im Kern die Übersetzung der „Opinioni de' cantori antichi e moderni" des italienischen Kastraten Pier Francesco Tosi aus dem Jahr 1723 dar, doch geht Agricola weit über Tosi hinaus. Den meist sehr knappen Ausführungen des Originals fügt er nicht nur zum Teil weit ausholende Kommentare hinzu, sondern veranschaulicht Tosis Hinweise auch mit einer Vielzahl von Notenbeispielen, die in dieser Ausgabe neu gesetzt und geschlüsselt wurden, um dem Benutzer den Zugang zum Stoff zu erleichtern.Ein Buch für - Sänger, die sich über unterschiedlichste Aspekte vokaler Aufführungspraxis in der Mitte des 18. Jahrhunderts informieren möchten, - Instrumentalisten, die sich von der historischen Idee leiten lassen, dass auch die Instrumentalpraxis stets die Vokalpraxis zu reflektieren hat, - historisch Interessierte, die sich mit einer spezifischen Seite aufgeklärten Denkens beschäftigen möchten."--Résumé du site Web de l'éditeur.

Download or read book Composers Intentions written by Andrew Parrott and published by Boydell & Brewer. This book was released on 2015 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book comprises selected essays concerning musical performance practice by conductor Andrew Parrott, an acknowledged expert in the field. Spanning some thirty-five years of Parrott's career as both performer and researcher, the volume brings together seminal writings on Monteverdi, Purcell and J. S. Bach, as well as an expanded version of a major new article from 2015. With a focus on vocal and choral music, the book covers a broad timespan (from the fourteenth to eighteenth centuries) and multifarious approaches (from extensive scholarly articles to radio broadcasts). Authoritative, provocative and readable, Parrott's writing is packed with detailed information of value to scholars, performers, students and curious listeners alike. At the same time, the book sheds light on key topics of historically informed performance from the past four decades. ANDREW PARROTT, conductor, is perhaps best known for his many pioneering recordings of pre-classical repertory from Machaut to Handel, principally for EMI with the London-based Taverner Consort, Choir and Players, which he founded in 1973. Recent CDs include his reconstruction of Bach's 'lost' Trauer-Music for Prince Leopold of Anhalt-Cöthen (released in 2011) and a 'thoroughly researched and re-imagined' account of Monteverdi's L'Orfeo (2013). He is also co-editor of The New Oxford Book of Carols (1992) and author of The Essential Bach Choir (The Boydell Press, 2000).

Download or read book Opera and Sovereignty written by Martha Feldman and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2010-10-05 with total page 574 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Performed throughout Europe during the 1700s, Italian heroic opera, or opera seria, was the century’s most significant musical art form, profoundly engaging such figures as Handel, Haydn, and Mozart. Opera and Sovereignty is the first book to address this genre as cultural history, arguing that eighteenth-century opera seria must be understood in light of the period’s social and political upheavals. Taking an anthropological approach to European music that’s as bold as it is unusual, Martha Feldman traces Italian opera’s shift from a mythical assertion of sovereignty, with its festive forms and rituals, to a dramatic vehicle that increasingly questioned absolute ideals. She situates these transformations against the backdrop of eighteenth-century Italian culture to show how opera seria both reflected and affected the struggles of rulers to maintain sovereignty in the face of a growing public sphere. In so doing, Feldman explains why the form had such great international success and how audience experiences of the period differed from ours today. Ambitiously interdisciplinary, Opera and Sovereignty will appeal not only to scholars of music and anthropology, but also to those interested in theater, dance, and the history of the Enlightenment.
