Book Revision Or Re envisioned  Origin and Outcomes of Brahms s Piano Trio No  1 in B Major  Op  8

Download or read book Revision Or Re envisioned Origin and Outcomes of Brahms s Piano Trio No 1 in B Major Op 8 written by Madalyn Lee Möller and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present essay addresses the double embodiment of Piano Trio No. 1 in B Major, Op. 8 by Johannes Brahms. The 1854 "original version" and the 1891 "revised version" symbolize distinct compositional periods in the life of the composer, whose lack of authoritative opinion toward the two Trios' relationship created complications. Today, appreciation of Brahms's B Major Trio in its first incarnation requires an effort of historical reconstruction, and for musicians steeped in his music, an ability to look beyond the imposing image of the replacement trio, a work from 1889 and published in 1891. My research seeks to restore the 1854 Trio to its position of prominence as Brahms's first ambitious work of chamber music. This research extends to an exploration of Brahms's aesthetic environment during the early 1850s, from his poetic affinity with E.T.A. Hoffmann and his alter ego Johannes Kreisler to the artistic influence of Robert and Clara Schumann. The disparity between the two Trios suggests that "revision" is an inadequate description of Brahms's far-reaching reshaping of the original work. The aging composer's emphasis on structural cohesion resulted in passages from three of the four original movements being substantially compressed or removed. While the re-envisioned version is economical and thematically compact, the original version possesses its own remarkable qualities: ambitious scope, diverse musical material, and potent allusiveness that encourages a different approach to analysis and performance. By examining the shared and divergent elements of both Trios, I aim to clarify their relationship, cast light on stylistic and historical factors, and promote a heightened appreciation of the music for performers and interpreters. A link to my lecture recital from May 2022, including performances of the first movement of the 1854 Trio and the complete 1891 Trio, can be found at the following link: httpss://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sFytCe10bOM. These performances are intimately connected to my dissertation, as parts of a larger effort to integrate artistic practice and scholarly research.

  • ISBN : 1528991613
  • Pages : 240 pages

Download or read book Past Sounds written by Gillian Perrin and published by Austin Macauley Publishers. This book was released on 2022-04-29 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book about classical music – for people who say they love music “but don’t understand how it works”, as well as for performers and music students of all ages. Proposing that deeper enjoyment begins with an understanding of music’s basic structures, the book describes how the simple template of earlier dance-songs was adapted by composers writing music for instruments. The instrumental sonata became one of the great formal frameworks of western music: in symphonies, concertos, chamber music and solo sonatas, it dominated concert music for some 250 years – yet it is little understood by many music lovers. To simplify this vast field, Past Sounds singles out for study “sonatas” for piano trio – piano, violin and ’cello. These instruments have well-contrasted and easily identifiable sounds, and as the story unfolds the reader is introduced to many rarely heard but beautiful works for piano trio. This is a lively, clearly-written narrative as well as a handbook for subsequent listening. The book has two distinctive features. Firstly, technical terms are carefully explained, and for those not familiar with music notation, audio clips in an accompanying website reproduce the actual sound of the music described. Secondly, in a broad historical sweep from mid-18th to 20th centuries, the development of the sonata is followed in its context of contemporary arts and literature – demonstrating how the sonata idea of classical music well deserves to be understood and valued as a western cultural archetype alongside other great artistic and literary forms.

Book Shostakovich and His World

  • Author : Laurel E. Fay
  • Publisher : Princeton University Press
  • Release : 2021-06-08
  • ISBN : 0691232199
  • Pages : 428 pages

Download or read book Shostakovich and His World written by Laurel E. Fay and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2021-06-08 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dmitri Shostakovich (1906-1975) has a reputation as one of the leading composers of the twentieth century. But the story of his controversial role in history is still being told, and his full measure as a musician still being taken. This collection of essays goes far in expanding the traditional purview of Shostakovich's world, exploring the composer's creativity and art in terms of the expectations--historical, cultural, and political--that forged them. The collection contains documents that appear for the first time in English. Letters that young "Miti" wrote to his mother offer a glimpse into his dreams and ambitions at the outset of his career. Shostakovich's answers to a 1927 questionnaire reveal much about his formative tastes in the arts and the way he experienced the creative process. His previously unknown letters to Stalin shed new light on Shostakovich's position within the Soviet artistic elite. The essays delve into neglected aspects of Shostakovich's formidable legacy. Simon Morrison provides an in-depth examination of the choreography, costumes, décor, and music of his ballet The Bolt and Gerard McBurney of the musical references, parodies, and quotations in his operetta Moscow, Cheryomushki. David Fanning looks at Shostakovich's activities as a pedagogue and the mark they left on his students' and his own music. Peter J. Schmelz explores the composer's late-period adoption of twelve-tone writing in the context of the distinctively "Soviet" practice of serialism. Other contributors include Caryl Emerson, Christopher H. Gibbs, Levon Hakobian, Leonid Maximenkov, and Rosa Sadykhova. In a provocative concluding essay, Leon Botstein reflects on the different ways listeners approach the music of Shostakovich.

Book The Cambridge Companion to Brahms

Download or read book The Cambridge Companion to Brahms written by Michael Musgrave and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1999-05-27 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Companion gives a comprehensive view of the German composer Johannes Brahms (1833–97). Twelve specially-commissioned chapters by leading scholars and musicians provide systematic coverage of the composer's life and works. Their essays represent recent research and reflect changing attitudes towards a composer whose public image has long been out-of-date. The first part of the book contains three chapters on Brahms's early life in Hamburg and on the middle and later years in Vienna. The central section considers the musical works in all genres, while the last part of the book offers personal accounts and responses from a conductor (Roger Norrington), a composer (Hugh Wood), and an editor of Brahms's original manuscripts (Robert Pascall). The volume as a whole is an important addition to Brahms scholarship and provides indispensable information for all students and enthusiasts of Brahms's music.

Book Chamber Music

  • Author : James M. Keller
  • Publisher : Oxford University Press, USA
  • Release : 2011
  • ISBN : 0195382536
  • Pages : 518 pages

Download or read book Chamber Music written by James M. Keller and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2011 with total page 518 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Oxford's highly successful listener's guides--The Symphony, The Concerto, and Choral Masterworks--have been widely praised for their blend of captivating biography, crystal clear musical analysis, and delightful humor. Now James Keller follows these greatly admired volumes with Chamber Music. Approaching the tradition of chamber music with knowledge and passion, Keller here serves as the often-opinionated but always genial guide to 192 essential works by 56 composers, providing illuminating essays on what makes each piece distinctive and admirable. Keller spans the history of this intimate genre of music, from key works of the Baroque through the emotionally stirring "golden age" of the Classical and Romantic composers, to modern masterpieces rich in political, psychological, and sometimes comical overtones. For each piece, from Bach through to contemporary figures like George Crumb and Steve Reich, the author includes an astute musical analysis that casual music lovers can easily appreciate yet that more experienced listeners will find enriching. Keller shares the colorful, often surprising stories behind the compositions while revealing the delights of an art form once described by Goethe as the musical equivalent of "thoughtful people conversing."

Book Encyclopedia of American Classical Pianists

Download or read book Encyclopedia of American Classical Pianists written by Richard Masters and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2023-09-30 with total page 487 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This essential reference focuses on the lives, careers, and musical contributions of over 150 American pianists from early days of the nation until the present day. Richard Masters spotlights both modern and historical pianists—including women, people of color, and LGBTQ+ pianists who either never had the opportunity to win widespread acclaim but were top notch performers or who achieved important careers against heavy odds but were soon forgotten after their deaths, such as Augusta Cottlow, George Copeland, and Natalie Hinderas. This volume also gives attention to important collaborative pianists—none of whom have ever appeared in any volume on classical pianists—and influential pedagogues, some of whom never had significant performing careers but produced important students. Each entry explores an individual pianist’s life and career—from relevant biographical details to impact on American musical culture—and includes a selected list and brief discussion of existing and available recordings, if any. Additionally, an introduction situates these pianists into historical trends. Overseen by a blue-ribbon editorial board, Encyclopedia of American Classical Pianists: 1800s to the Present provides a comprehensive view of the depth and breadth of American pianistic achievement and serves as the most up-to-date work for students, piano departments, music libraries, researchers, and interested pianophiles.
