Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "From the sounds of West Central African harps to the sounds of the European J. S. Bach revival, Creatures of the Air is a nineteenth-century music history told as a history of the art's elemental media system, air. Air is here understood as a human domain and music as an art of that domain, as such embedded in histories of environmental and colonial struggle around a thickened consciousness of the air and of breathing itself. The narrative moves across malarial equatorial climates and polluted industrial ones; the loss and recovery of the human voice in hazardous environmental conditions; scenes of suffocation and breathing mirrored in the creation and performance of Mendelssohn's enormous Elijah oratorio. No longer just an innocent luxury, by its claim to invisibility music is shown to be implicated in the struggle for control over air as a most precious natural resource. What emerges is a complex political ecology where differentiated musical systems combined, struggled against, and co-constituted one another in the course of the global nineteenth century and beyond"--

Download or read book Strong on Music written by Vera Brodsky Lawrence and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1999-02 with total page 676 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Strong on Music Vera Brodsky Lawrence uses the diaries of lawyer and music lover George Templeton Strong as a jumping-off point from which to explore every aspect of New York City's musical life in the mid-nineteenth century. This third and final volume ranges across opera, orchestral and chamber music, blackface minstrels, military bands, church choirs, and even concert saloons. Among the many striking scenes vividly portrayed in Repercussions are the rapturous reception of Verdi's Ballo in maschera in 1861; the impact of the Civil War on New York's music scene, from theaters closing as their musicians enlisted to the performance of "The Star-Spangled Banner" at every possible occasion; and open-air concerts in the developing Central Park. Throughout, Lawrence mines a treasure trove of primary source materials including daily newspapers, memoirs, city directories, and architectural drawings. Indispensable for scholars, Repercussions will also fascinate music fans with its witty writing and detailed descriptions of the cultural life of America's first metropolis. Formerly a concert pianist, Vera Brodsky Lawrence spent the last third of her life as a historian of American music (she died in 1996). She was editor of The Piano Works of Louis Moreau Gottschalk and The Complete Works of Scott Joplin. On Volume 1: "A marvelous book. There is nothing like it in the literature of American music."—Harold C. Schonberg, New York Times Book Review On Volume 2: "A monumental achievement."—Victor Fell Yellin, Opera Quarterly
