Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The vibrant intellectual, social and political climate of mid eighteenth-century Europe presented opportunities and challenges for artists and musicians alike. This book focuses on Mozart the man and musician as he responds to different aspects of that world. It reveals his views on music, aesthetics and other matters; on places in Austria and across Europe that shaped his life; on career contexts and environments, including patronage, activities as an impresario, publishing, theatrical culture and financial matters; on engagement with performers and performance, focusing on Mozart's experiences as a practicing musician; and on reception and legacy from his own time through to the present day. Probing diverse Mozartian contexts in a variety of ways, the contributors reflect the vitality of existing scholarship and point towards areas primed for further study. This volume is essential reading for students and scholars of late eighteenth-century music and for Mozart aficionados and music lovers in general.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Pages: 29. Chapters: Kochel catalogue, List of compositions by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, List of concert arias, songs and canons by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, List of masses by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, List of operas by Mozart, List of solo piano compositions by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, List of sonatas by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Excerpt: The Kochel-Verzeichnis is a complete, chronological catalogue of compositions by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-91) which was originally created by Ludwig von Kochel. It is abbreviated K. or KV. For example, Mozart's Requiem in D minor was, according to Kochel's counting, the 626th piece Mozart composed. Thus, the piece is designated K. 626 or KV 626. Kochel catalogue numbers not only attempt to establish chronology, but also give a helpful shorthand to refer to Mozart's works. In the decades after Mozart's death there were several attempts to catalogue his compositions, but it was not until 1862 that Ludwig von Kochel succeeded. Kochel's 551-page catalogue was titled Chronologisch-thematisches Verzeichnis sammtlicher Tonwerke W. A. Mozart's (Chronological-thematic Catalogue of the Complete Musical Works of W. A. Mozart). The catalogue included the opening bars of each piece, known as an incipit. Kochel attempted to arrange the works in chronological order, but the compositions written before 1784 could only be estimated. Since Kochel's work, many more pieces have been found, re-attributed, and re-dated, requiring three catalogue revisions. These revisions, especially the third edition by Alfred Einstein (1937), and the sixth edition by Franz Giegling, Gerd Sievers, and Alexander Weinmann (1964), incorporated many corrections. To maintain as much of the original K-numbering of the list as possible, while re-ordering in the revised, chronological sequence, letters were added to the new numbers....

Download or read book Life of Mozart written by Otto Jahn and published by . This book was released on 1882 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In terms of musical composition, all but the first five of his thirty-five years were astoundingly productive for Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-91). A stream of glorious symphonies, piano concertos, chamber music, operas and the sublime but unfinished Requiem poured from his pen. The author was inspired to write a scholarly biography of Mozart following a conversation at Mendelssohn's funeral in 1847. He immersed himself in intensive research on the composer and his music, publishing the first edition of this landmark work in four volumes between 1856 and 1859. A second edition followed in 1867, incorporating new material and making use of Köchel's 1862 catalogue of Mozart's works. It is from this edition that Pauline D. Townsend made her three-volume English translation, first published in 1882.
