This book was released on 2018-06-05 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The intention is to provide the stigma of Leo Brouwer's creation and confirm his status as a guitarist and composer in the artistic sphere; namely, that of an artist with an intense enquiring mind, while at the same time showcasing his music and the connotations that are occasionally dominant in his work. At the same time, the main intention is to shed light on the process of organizing the sound and motivic material in his music, something that can be achieved by analysing two of his most representative pieces - each pertaining to a different compositional period.

Download or read book The Routledge Handbook to the Music of Alfred Schnittke written by Gavin Dixon and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2022-01-31 with total page 475 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Routledge Handbook to the Music of Alfred Schnittke is a comprehensive study of the work of one of the most important Russian composers of the late 20th century. Each piece is discussed in detail, with particular attention to the composer’s groundbreaking polystylism, as well as his unique approach to musical symbolism and his deep engagement with Christian themes. This is the first publication to look at Schnittke’s output in its entirety, and for most works it represents either the first ever published analysis or the first in a language other than Russian. The volume presents new research from the Ivashkin-Schnittke Archive at Goldsmiths, University of London and the collection of Schnittke’s compositional sketches at the Julliard Library in New York. It also draws on the substantial research on Schnittke’s music published in the Russian language. Including a work list and bibliography of primary and secondary sources, this is an essential reference for all those interested in Russian music, 20th-century music and performance studies.
