  • Author : Rebecca Mitchell
  • Publisher : Yale University Press
  • Release : 2016-01-05
  • ISBN : 0300216491
  • Pages : 336 pages

Download or read book Nietzsche s Orphans written by Rebecca Mitchell and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2016-01-05 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A prevailing belief among Russia’s cultural elite in the early twentieth century was that the music of composers such as Sergei Rachmaninoff, Aleksandr Scriabin, and Nikolai Medtner could forge a shared identity for the Russian people across social and economic divides. In this illuminating study of competing artistic and ideological visions at the close of Russia’s “Silver Age,” author Rebecca Mitchell interweaves cultural history, music, and philosophy to explore how “Nietzsche’s orphans” strove to find in music a means to overcome the disunity of modern life in the final tumultuous years before World War I and the Communist Revolution.

Book Form vs  Work

    Book Details:
  • Author : Ildar D. Khannanov
  • Publisher : CRC Press
  • Release : 2024-02-27
  • ISBN : 1003846882
  • Pages : 283 pages

Download or read book Form vs Work written by Ildar D. Khannanov and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2024-02-27 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The antinomy of musical work and musical form has been central for music theory for centuries. Musical work is complete and all-inclusive, which makes it an ideal object of study. However, the teaching of musical form, albeit selective, is self-sufficient and epistemologically sovereign. The book offers both the historical overview and the analytical discourse on this antinomy in both Western and Russian perspectives. It presents an insider’s view of the latter and contains materials never previously published.

This book was released on 2001 with total page 994 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This reference classic has approximately doubled in size since its last publication 20 years ago, and the expansion involves more than the thorough revision and addition of articles about music of the past. More articles about 20th-century composers and composer-performers have been added, as well as topical articles about the gender-related, multicultural, and interdisciplinary ways that music is now being studied. Add to these changes that New Grove is also available online, making it a source that would have made its many-faceted creator Sir George Grove proud"--Outstanding reference sources, American Libraries, May 2002.

Book Russian Theoretical Thought in Music

Download or read book Russian Theoretical Thought in Music written by Gordon D. McQuere and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Offers readers new ways of conceptualizing music and new insights into music created in Russia. Since its original publication in 1983, Russian Theoretical Thought in Music has become the standard English-language source of information about music theory as it developed in Russia. Because of the distance of culture and language, music theory developed there largely independent of the traditions of Western Europe. Over the decades of Soviet rule, those traditions flourished and were refined even further into a fascinating world of ideas. Exploring this world offers the reader new ways of conceptualizing music and new insights into music created in Russia. This compelling volume includes Ellon Carpenter's overview of the development of music theory in Russia, followed by a look into the ideas of six particularly important theorists. Nicolas Schidlovsky examines the theoretical underpinnings of Russian Orthodox chant; Gordon McQuere probes the remarkable ideas of Boleslav Yavorsky and the seminal contribution of Boris Asafiev; and Roy Guenther explores the analytical system of Varvara Dernova. Contributors: Ellon D. Carpenter, Allen Forte, Roy G. Guenther, Gordon D. McQuere, and Nicolas Schidlovsky. Gordon McQuere is Professor of Music and Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences at Washburn University.
