Download or read book Transitions in Mid Baroque Music written by Carrie Churnside and published by Boydell & Brewer. This book was released on 2024-05-28 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Featuring 102 music examples, this edited collection features contributions by leading scholars from the UK, United States, Australasia and Europe on what characterized the period. This collection focusses on the stylistic and cultural interchange that characterizes the musical period of the mid-Baroque (c.1650-1710). The idea of musical transition during this period is evident in two principal ways: geographical and chronological (the two often overlap). Chapters examine geographical transition by tracing the exchange of regional and national styles, while considering chronological evolution from the perspective of music theory, performance practice, source studies or specific repertoires. Studies range across instrumental and vocal music, both sacred and secular, and encompass some of the main European traditions prevalent at the time: Italian, German, French and English. The collection features contributions by leading scholars from the UK, the United States, Australasia and Europe. CARRIE CHURNSIDE is Associate Professor in Music at the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire (part of Birmingham City University).

"The New Grove Dictionary of Musical Instruments" includes: Unprecedented coverage of Western musical instruments--from early European instruments, to the development of the organ and the violin, and continuing into the twentieth century with computers and synthesizers -- 6,000 articles on non-western developing-world and folk instruments -- Detailed catalogs of the world's private and public instrument collections, a survey of forgery, and a study of restoration and maintenance techniques -- Articles on performance practice and technique--such as tuning, ornamentation, fingering and improvisation -- Biographies of instrument makers--from the Greek inventor Ctesibius to the violin makers of Italy to today's manufacturing giants.
