Download or read book Musical Improvisation and Open Forms in the Age of Beethoven written by Gianmario Borio and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-12-14 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Improvisation was a crucial aspect of musical life in Europe from the late eighteenth century through to the middle of the nineteenth, representing a central moment in both public occasions and the private lives of many artists. Composers dedicated themselves to this practice at length while formulating the musical ideas later found at the core of their published works; improvisation was thus closely linked to composition itself. The full extent of this relation can be inferred from both private documents and reviews of concerts featuring improvisations, while these texts also inform us that composers quite often performed in public as both improvisers and interpreters of pieces written by themselves or others. Improvisations presented in concert were distinguished by a remarkable degree of structural organisation and complexity, demonstrating performers’ consolidated abilities in composition as well as their familiarity with the rules for improvising outlined by theoreticians.

Download or read book Ornamentation in Baroque and Post Baroque Music with Special Emphasis on J S Bach written by Frederick Neumann and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2020-05-05 with total page 644 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ornaments play an enormous role in the music of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, and ambiguities in their notation (as well as their frequent omission in the score) have left doubt as to how composers intended them to be interpreted. Frederick Neumann, himself a violinist and conductor, questions the validity of the rigid principles applied to their performance. In this controversial work, available for the first time in paperback, he argues that strict constraints are inconsistent with the freedom enjoyed by musicians of the period. The author takes an entirely new look at ornamentation, and particularly that of J. S. Bach. He draws on extensive research in England, France, Germany, Italy, and the United States to show that prevailing interpretations are based on inadequate evidence. These restrictive interpretations have been far-reaching in their effect on style. By questioning them, this work continues to stimulate a reorientation in our understandiing of Baroque and post-Baroque music.
Download or read book Songs by Victor Mass 1822 1884 Including Chants Bretons 1853 and Songs by Georges Bizet 1838 1875 Including Feuilles d Album 1867 written by David Tunley and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-03-18 with total page 379 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First Published in 1995. This title is volume 4 in a series comprising nearly 300 romances and mélodies, most of which were composed during the 40 years that saw a blossoming of the romantic spirit in all the arts in France. The composers represented in this volume were of a rather serious turn of musical mind and many of the songs presented seem to have enjoyed the more sheltered success of the private recital to which the critics may not have been invited.
