Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Masters of Italian Music No one who ventures to write about modem Italian music can hope to avoid a certain element of monotony. At the present time, and indeed for many years past, music in Italy has meant Opera, and Opera alone. The vast majority of Italian composers devote their best energies to this peculiarly national form of art, while those who cultivate its other branches constitute a minority so insignificant as scarcely to be worthy of mention. In France and Germany Opera has divided honours with Orchestral Music and Oratorio. In Italy it has reigned supreme. In England, except at a few favoured moments, Opera has always been an exotic. At the present time, as a national form of art it is practically non-existent. It would be tedious to discuss the various causes which have combined to make England an unoperatic country.

Download or read book Music and Jewish Culture in Early Modern Italy written by Lynette Bowring and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2022-03 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Musical culture in Jewish communities in early modern Italy was much more diverse than researchers originally thought. An interdisciplinary reassessment, Music and Jewish Culture in Early Modern Italy evaluates the social, cultural, political, economic, and religious circumstances that shaped this community, especially in light of the need to recognize individual experiences within minority populations. Contributors draw from rich materials, topics, and approaches as they explore the inherently diverse understandings of music in daily life, the many ways that Jewish communities conceived of music, and the reception of and responses to Jewish musical culture. Highlighting the multifaceted experience of music within Jewish communities, Music and Jewish Culture in Early Modern Italy sheds new light on the place of music in complex, previously misunderstood environments.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Masters of Music: Their Lives and Works Italy, whose music had slept while her art had waked and had held the world spellbound, became ready for her great musical epoch in the sixteenth century. Raphael had been dead nine years when he was born who has since been termed "the Raphael of music." Palestrina, called of old Praeneste, is a small town southeast of Rome, and once upon a time, many years ago, a man and his wife lived there with their little boy. Their dwelling was almost hidden by chestnut trees, and it faced the blue western distance where Rome lay. Some people say that this couple were of noble birth, that the man's family name was Sante, and his wife's Ghismondi (both old and well known Italian names), but we know little of them. It is quite possible that they were of the peasant class, for they lived in the humblest and simplest manner. Their little boy, Giovanni Pierluigi, or Gianetto as he was called, grew up among the chestnut trees on the lower slopes of the Sabine hills, a simple country boy save for his one great inspiration, - love for music.

Download or read book Bravo written by Guy Graybill and published by Branden Books. This book was released on 2008 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Italians were so busy creating and performing superb music that they neglected to tell the great epic story of their wondrous achievement. With BRAVO! we hope to tell that story. The 1,000-year-old story begins, basically, with the work of a humble monk from the city of Arezzo. And this story has no ending. If, on one hand, we will never know the music of the Egyptians, of the Greeks, and of the Romans, on the other, we have come to know and to enjoy the music of every composer from the 12th Century to the Present day thanks to Guido's invention of the musical scale. As the story unfolds, we are rewarded with the many convincing superlatives forever tied to Italian musical endeavors. The first ten chapters deal with the Italian musical geniuses who theorized, made superb instruments, composed, performed, orchestrated, conducted and sang for the enjoyment of listeners worldwide, and the closing chapter gives a comprehensive look at the beautiful things that have happened in the Italian and American world of music. While each page of BRAVO! is full of surprising and fascinating details, the title reminds us that the term, BRAVO! is reserved only for topnotch performances. Book jacket.
