Book The Lives of Ingolf Dahl

Download or read book The Lives of Ingolf Dahl written by Anthony Linick and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2008 with total page 654 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: He was considered a musician's musician, the most gifted artist in that exciting Southern California world dominated by the great emigré composers, the film industry, the brilliant soloists and the avant-gardists who made Los Angeles a musical capital. Ingolf Dahl (1912-1970) was an accomplished composer, conductor, pianist and a mentor to eminent contemporary figures like Michael Tilson Th omas - yet he never achieved the celebrity which others felt he deserved. He was not the man his public knew, a happily married gentile of Swedish extraction. His thirty-year marriage to Etta, one that seemed the epitome of mutual love and devotion, was beset by insoluble problems of identity - for Dahl was a closeted homosexual. He was also a German whose father was a Jew, and his name was not even Ingolf Dahl. His decision to disguise all of these truths, even from members of his own family, lead to fatal distortions in his creative being and public persona. Although he numbered many famous figures among his friends, from Gracie Fields to Igor Stravinsky and Benny Goodman, Dahl always experienced life as an outsider. When he died he left behind an extensive body of correspondence and 42 years worth of intimate daily journals. Etta Dahl (1905-1970) left many written records as well. These sources, never made public before, and the recollections of many survivors, give us a portrait of an intriguingly complex character, noble and self-absorbed, creative and crankish, passionate and repressed. The Lives of Ingolf Dahl has one other unique source, the author himself. Anthony Linick was the child of this famous marriage, the son whose very existence contributed to the elaborate deformations of fact and persona that so disfi gured Dahl's life. With love and respect - and the historian's devotion to the truth - he can tell their whole story at last.

Book Handbook for Cello Students

Download or read book Handbook for Cello Students written by Phyllis Luckman and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From How To Use This Book: This handbook has been compiled as a reference book for cello students-those working with the cello by themselves as well as those taking lessons. It offers information of all sorts, ranging from the rudiments of music notation, to ideas that illuminate the music the cellist plays and hears. Everything in the book is applicable to the performance of music and to playing the cello. This handbook is not a substitute for a teacher. It is not an instructional manual for learning to play the cello. It deals with "what" and "why" but not "how". Cello players without any knowledge of theory-or those who have only a sketchy acquaintance with it-may find what they need to know in the theory sections of this book. Those who already understand theory, but not much about the cello, can skip to the sections on the instrument. There are also subjects of general interest to all

  • Author : Dorothy L. Crawford
  • Publisher : Yale University Press
  • Release : 2009-06-23
  • ISBN : 0300155484
  • Pages : 335 pages

Download or read book A Windfall of Musicians written by Dorothy L. Crawford and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2009-06-23 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first to examine the brilliant gathering of composers, conductors, and other musicians who fled Nazi Germany and arrived in the Los Angeles area. Musicologist Dorothy Lamb Crawford looks closely at the lives, creative work, and influence of sixteen performers, fourteen composers, and one opera stage director, who joined this immense migration beginning in the 1930s. Some in this group were famous when they fled Europe, others would gain recognition in the young musical culture of Los Angeles, and still others struggled to establish themselves in an environment often resistant to musical innovation. Emphasizing individual voices, Crawford presents short portraits of Igor Stravinsky, Arnold Schoenberg, and the other musicians while also considering their influence as a group—in the film industry, in music institutions in and around Los Angeles, and as teachers who trained the next generation. The book reveals a uniquely vibrant era when Southern California became a hub of unprecedented musical talent.

Book Cultural Translation and Knowledge Transfer on Alternative Routes of Escape from Nazi Terror

Download or read book Cultural Translation and Knowledge Transfer on Alternative Routes of Escape from Nazi Terror written by Susanne Korbel and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-08-05 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book investigates and compares the role of artistic and academic refugees from National Socialism acting as "cultural mediators" or "agents of knowledge" between their origin and host societies. By doing so, it locates itself at the intersection of the recently emerging field of the history of knowledge, transnational history, migration, exile, as well as cultural transfer studies. The case studies provided in this volume are of global scope, focusing on routes of escape and migration to Iceland, Italy, the Near East, Portugal and Shanghai, and South-, Central-, and North America. The chapters examine the hybrid ways refugees envisaged, managed, organized, and subsequently mediated their migrations. It focuses on how they dealt with their escape in their art and science. The chapters ask how the emigrants located themselves––did they associate with ethnic, religious, and/or cultural affiliations, specific social classes, or specific parts of society—and how such identifications were portrayed in their knowledge transfer and cultural translations. Building on such possible avenues for research, this volume aims to offer a global analysis of the multifarious processes not only of cultural translation and knowledge transfer affecting culture, sciences, networks, but also everyday life in different areas of the world.
