Download or read book Giacomo Puccini written by Roger Flury and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2012-06-21 with total page 937 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Opera recordings have been with us since the creation of the first wax cylinders. Now at a time when the 25-year reign of the compact disc appears to be coming to an end is the moment to take stock of the history of recordings of arguably the most popular composer of operas, Giacomo Puccini. In Giacomo Puccini: A Discography, librarian and music historian Roger Flury looks at each opera chronologically from Le Villi to Turandot, followed by sections on Puccini's instrumental, chamber, orchestral, and solo vocal works. Details of each complete opera are listed by recording date, followed by excerpts in the order in which they occur in the opera. Recordings of each aria are listed alphabetically by the name of the artist. For ease of use, Flury establishes as the main criteria for inclusion those recordings assigned a commercial issue number and available for purchase. This book does not limit itself to mainstream recordings but includes as well 'unofficial' recordings taken from broadcasts or illegally recorded in theaters, ensuring that the audio recording history of Puccini is free of gaps. (Video and DVD issues, whether of staged performances or excerpts in concert, are not included unless they have been issued in a sound-only format.) This volume brings together information on nearly 10,000 recordings of Puccini's music. It provides a comprehensive overview of the recorded history of the composer's works and serves as a useful guide for the transfer of recordings from one format to another.

Book excerpt: This year’s winner of the Yale Series of Younger Poets competition is Sean Singer’s Discography.

Download or read book The Immediate Discography The First 20 Years written by Mark Jones and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2016 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of Best Discography in the 2017 Association for Recorded Sound Collections (ARSC) Awards for Excellence (Best Historical Research in Recorded Rock Music category). Immediate is bounded in time, a quaint time capsule synonymous with Swinging 60s London. Incorporation to insolvency was 5 five years but the reissues keep appearing 50 years on. Not surprising when you consider that the it was home to Small Faces, Nice, Rod Stewart, Humble Pie, Chris Farlowe, etc. Immediate was the 1st UK independent to score a number 1. This, perhaps, is one of the reasons that the label has such fervent admirers - 'the little bastard Immediate' stuck two fingers up at an oligopolistic industry that hadn't changed since before WW2. Without Immediate we might not have had Harvest, Vertigo, Nova or Dawn from the majors and we may not have seen further maverick-run independents, such as Charisma, Virgin or Stiff. Includes listings of all UK Immediate releases plus all known UK reissues up to 1985.

Book excerpt: Named one of the world’s great blues-rock guitarists by Rolling Stone, Mike Bloomfield (1943–1981) remains beloved by fans forty years after his untimely death.

In vivid chapters drawn from meticulous research, including more than seventy interviews with the musician’s friends, relatives, and band members, music historian David Dann brings to life Bloomfield’s worlds, from his comfortable upbringing in a Jewish family on Chicago’s North Shore to the gritty taverns and raucous nightclubs where this self-taught guitarist helped transform the sound of contemporary blues and rock music.
