Download or read book Muzio Clementi and British Musical Culture written by Luca Lévi Sala and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-06-14 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent scholarship has vanquished the traditional perception of nineteenth-century Britain as a musical wasteland. In addition to attempting more balanced assessments of the achievements of British composers of this period, scholars have begun to explore the web of reciprocal relationships between the societal, economic and cultural dynamics arising from the industrial revolution, the Napoleonic wars, and the ever-changing contours of British music publishing, music consumption, concert life, instrument design, performance practice, pedagogy and composition. Muzio Clementi (1752–1832) provides an ideal case-study for continued exploration of this web of relationships. Based in London for much of his life, whilst still maintaining contact with continental developments, Clementi achieved notable success in a diversity of activities that centred mainly on the piano. The present book explores Clementi’s multivalent contribution to piano performance, pedagogy, composition and manufacture in relation to British musical life and its international dimensions. An overriding purpose is to interrogate when, how and to what extent a distinctive British musical culture emerged in the early nineteenth century. Much recent work on Clementi has centred on the Italian National Edition of his complete works (MiBACT); several chapters report on this project, whilst continuing to pursue the book’s broader themes.

Download or read book The Tyranny of Tradition in Piano Teaching written by Walter Ponce and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2019-09-27 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The strict traditions of piano teaching have remained entrenched for generations. The dominant influence of Muzio Clementi (1752-1832), the first composer-pedagogue of the instrument, brought about an explosion of autocratic instruction and bizarre teaching systems, exemplified in the mind-numbing drills of Hanon's "The Virtuoso Pianist." These practices--considered absurd or abusive by many--persist today at all levels of piano education. This book critically examines two centuries of teaching methods and encourages instructors to do away with traditions that disconnect mental and creative skills.

Download or read book Introduction to the Art of Playing the Pianoforte Op 42 written by Muzio Clementi and published by . This book was released on 2020-09-06 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Muzio Clementi's Introduction to the Art of Playing on the Piano Forte (Op. 42) was specifically written for the piano and first published in 1801. Beethoven himself recommended and endorsed this method, and Chopin used it with his students. It includes a collection of 50 short pieces for beginners written by eminent composers such as Mozart, Haydn, J.S. Bach and Beethoven, which, combined with the conciseness of the tutorial itself, make this book a remarkable teaching tool.

This book was released on 2018-06-24 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 12 Sonatinas by Muzio Clementi. The merits of this didactic work are so generally known and appreciated, as to render any farther encomium, on a performance of such universal utility to musical amateurs and juvenile practitioners, wholly unnecessary. It will, however, be proper to point out the various improvements in this eighth edition, which the experience of the many years, which have elapsed since its first publication, has suggested to the ingenious author; and the introduction of which adds, most certainly, in a great degree to its intrinsic value. Additional exercises for both hands have been introduced, and the general arrangement of the whole is better adapted to the capacity of juvenile pupils. - The circumstance of this work having reached an eighth edition, is, we may venture to say, unprecedented in musical annals; but when it is considered how eminently calculated it is to facilitate the student's practice, the patronage it has so deservedly received will become less surprising.
