Download or read book Stolen Time written by Richard Hudson and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 498 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tracing the complex history of tempo rubato, this book identifies and traces the development of two main types of rubato: an earlier one in which note values in a melody are altered while the accompaniment keeps strict time, and a later, more familiar one in which the tempo of the entire musical substance fluctuates. In the course of his narrative, Hudson ranges widely over western music, from Gregorian Chant to Chopin, from C.P.E. Bach to jazz, quoting extensively from the writings of theorists, composers, and performers. In so doing he not only suggests new ways of approaching the rubato in the music of nineteenth-century composers like Chopin and Liszt, where we expect to encounter the term, but also illuminates the music of earlier and later periods, revealing its use even in the music of that most metronomic of composers, Stravinsky.

Download or read book Twenty Israeli Composers written by Robert Fleisher and published by Wayne State University Press. This book was released on 2018-02-05 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twenty of Israel's leading art-music composers discuss the interaction of inspiration, method and cultural context in their work, revealing both international and national influence and scope. Israel’s contemporary art music reflects a modern society that is an intricate fabric of national and ethnic origins, languages and dialects, customs and traditions—a heterogeneous culture of cultures. It is a rich and distinctive environment—at once ancient and modern, spiritual and secular, traditional and progressive. Twenty Israeli Composers, the first published collection of interviews with Israeli composers, explores this developing and distinctive music culture. The featured composers have earned distinction in Israel and abroad, and reflect the pluralism of Israeli art music, culture, and society. In first-person narrative, they discuss the interaction of inspiration, method, and cultural context in their work, revealing both international and national influence and scope. Three generations of contemporary composers-immigrants from Central and Eastern Europe, North and South America, and naïve sabras- share their ideas about music, the creative process, and their experiences as artists living and working in Israel. Robert Fleisher furnishes a biographical sketch of each composer, followed by a summary of recent accomplishments. The book also includes a bibliography, discography, and information for further study.

Download or read book Furthermoore written by Gerald Moore and published by Hamish Hamilton. This book was released on 1983 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Orpheus sang, Gerald Moore reminds us, the trees and the mountaintops bowed their heads, plants and flowers blossomed. Can any man-made instrument pierce the heart so directly as the human voice? But the accompanying lute, as he characteristically points out, is not introduced as an afterthought: 'Everything that heard him play, even the billows of the sea hung their heads'. Everyone familiar with Gerald Moore's partnership at the piano with so many great singers during his long career as the most distinguished accompanist of the century will be glad that Shakespeare made the point. Since retiring from the concert platform, Gerald Moore has given us two incomparable books containing his thoughts on Schubert's Song Cycles and the songs of Schumann, also, in Farewell Recital, a volume of reminiscences. Here he looks back on great musicians he has admired and known, ranging from Paderewski to Maria Callas, from Lionel Tertis to Clifford Curzon, from Walter Legge to the Songmakers' Almanac, besides, of course, many of the great singers he has accompanied, from John Coates to Janet Baker. In the most moving section of the book, he writes of how, within the space of a few years, the world of music was deprived of four Olympian musicians, Kathleen Ferrier, Jacqueline du Pre, Dennis Brain and Solomon. In lighter vein, he is revealing about such musicians' haunts as, near the old Queen's Hall, Pagani's restaurant and the neighbouring pub known as 'The Gluepot' (because members of the orchestra tended to stick there), tennis at Wimbledon in the days of Suzanne Lenglen and Elizabeth Ryan, and having, in Paris, to explain cricket to Regine Crespin, Yehudi Menuhin and Rostropovich. -- From dust jacket.
