Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Piano and Singing, Didactical and Polemical: For Professionals and Amateurs The musical world receives from me a book of a peculiar kind not a scientific book, arranged on proper system - such a demand no reasonable man will make of an old music-master, who, during his long practice in the realm of sounds could not arrive at scientific, frequently barren, deductions. What I offer here is the experience of my life. Nature has made me susceptible to everything that is good and beautiful, a correct instinct and a tolerable understanding taught me to avoid the untrue and the hateful, aspiration to higher knowledge led me to pay attention to everything that I came across on the path of my life, and I need have no hesitation in asserting that I have striven 'to fulfil according to my strength my vocation on earth. This is no boasting; it is no more than the legitimate declaration of a good conscience, and this no man need con ceal. For these reasons I have judged it proper to send these outpourings of my heart forth into the world. Perhaps there are some Sympathetic souls that are willing to understand and comprehend me; still happier should I be if some music teacher or other were to adopt the views laid down here, and with diligence and prudence were to read between the lines many good things that could not possibly be written down in full detail. Material still in plenty lay spread out before me indeed, while I wrote it increased under my hands. Art is so very comprehensive, and all the phenomena of life stand in the closest relations with it. Whoever loves and cultivates it sincerely finds in it every day new sources of enjoy ment and new impulse to inquiry. Even the most experienced artist always remains a learner, and to teach art especially is to learn day by day.

Download or read book Clara Schumann written by Nancy Reich and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2013-07-15 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This absorbing and award-winning biography tells the story of the tragedies and triumphs of Clara Wieck Schumann (1819–1896), a musician of remarkable achievements. At once artist, composer, editor, teacher, wife, and mother of eight children, she was an important force in the musical world of her time. To show how Schumann surmounted the obstacles facing female artists in the nineteenth century, Nancy B. Reich has drawn on previously unexplored primary sources: unpublished diaries, letters, and family papers, as well as concert programs. Going beyond the familiar legends of the Schumann literature, she applies the tools of musicological scholarship and the insights of psychology to provide a new, full-scale portrait.The book is divided into two parts. In Part One, Reich follows Clara Schumann's life from her early years as a child prodigy through her marriage to Robert Schumann and into the forty years after his death, when she established and maintained an extraordinary European career while supporting and supervising a household and seven children. Part Two covers four major themes in Schumann's life: her relationship with Johannes Brahms and other friends and contemporaries; her creative work; her life on the concert stage; and her success as a teacher.Throughout, excerpts from diaries and letters in Reich's own translations clear up misconceptions about her life and achievements and her partnership with Robert Schumann. Highlighting aspects of Clara Schumann's personality and character that have been neglected by earlier biographers, this candid and eminently readable account adds appreciably to our understanding of a fascinating artist and woman.For this revised edition, Reich has added several photographs and updated the text to include recent discoveries. She has also prepared a Catalogue of Works that includes all of Clara Schumann's known published and unpublished compositions and works she edited, as well as descriptions of the autographs, the first editions, the modern editions, and recent literature on each piece. The Catalogue also notes Schumann's performances of her own music and provides pertinent quotations from letters, diaries, and contemporary reviews.
