Book excerpt: Claudio Monteverdi is now recognized as the towering figure of a critical transitional moment of Western music history: relentless innovator in every genre within chamber, church and theatre music; self-proclaimed leader of a 'new dispensation' between words and their musical expression; perhaps even 'Creator of Modern Music'. During recent years, as his arrestingly attractive music has been brought back to life in performance, so too have some of the most outstanding musicologists focussed intensely on Monteverdi as they worked through the 'big' questions in the historiography and hermeneutics of early Baroque music, including musical representation of language; compositional theory; social, institutional, cultural and gender history; performance practices and more. The 17 articles in this volume have been selected by Richard Wistreich to exemplify the best scholarship in English and because each, in retrospect, turns out to have been a ground-breaking contribution to one or more significant strands in Monteverdi studies.

Book excerpt: This is the black and white edition, for a color edition please see : https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08VCYDH9X?ref_=pe_3052080_397514860 Bilingual edition: original letters in English translated into Italian by Stefania Iannella***You will read the moving words of common people who, calling themselves "laymen" and admitting that they do not know how to distinguish "even just a note from another", perceive the true essence of classical music. In fact, most of these writings describe the highest musical experience: the mystical elevation. These American fans thank Arturo Toscanini for the "pure joy" resulting from the concerts he directed. They feel they are in celestial realms, thus forgetting their earthly sufferings.***In addition to the twenty-one letters from the admirers, an unpublished letter from Dora Mary Penny Powell (Dorabella) of singular musicological importance is also disclosed, as it reveals some key elements to solve an enigma. The famous yet unsolved mystery concerning the melody hidden in Edward Elgar's Enigma Variations (1899) could thus finally be revealed. ***La musica classica è una prerogativa di un'élite di soli intenditori? Questi ammiratori, autodefinendosi al contrario "profani" in ambito musicale e ammettendo di non saper distinguere "neanche una nota dall'altra", intuiscono la vera essenza della musica classica. In buona parte di questi scritti è, infatti, descritta l'esperienza musicale per eccellenza: l'elevazione mistica. Leggerete le parole commosse di persone che, grazie alla "gioia pura" derivante dall'ascolto dei concerti diretti da Toscanini, sentono di ritrovarsi in regni celestiali, dimenticando così le proprie sofferenze terrene. Tanto entusiasmo, tanta dedizione al mondo Sublime della musica classica sono espressi attraverso le più sincere impressioni raccontate da persone disparate, che proclamano però all'unisono l'effetto sovrannaturale della musica diretta da Arturo Toscanini. Libro contenente rivelazioni sulle "Enigma Variations " di Elgar.Questa è l'edizione in bianco e nero, per chi preferisce vedere e conservare le riproduzioni delle lettere nei loro colori originali, l'edizione a colori è acquistabile a questo link: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08VCYDH9X?ref_=pe_3052080_397514860

Book Opera in Seventeenth Century Venice

Download or read book Opera in Seventeenth Century Venice written by Ellen Rosand and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2007-10-09 with total page 712 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In this elegantly constructed study of the early decades of public opera, the conflicts and cooperation of poets, composers, managers, designers, and singers—producing the art form that was soon to sweep the world and that has been dominant ever since—are revealed in their first freshness."—Andrew Porter "This will be a standard work on the subject of the rise of Venetian opera for decades. Rosand has provided a decisive contribution to the reshaping of the entire subject. . . . She offers a profoundly new view of baroque opera based on a solid documentary and historical-critical foundation. The treatment of the artistic self-consciousness and professional activities of the librettists, impresarios, singers, and composers is exemplary, as is the examination of their reciprocal relations. This work will have a positive effect not only on studies of 17th-century, but on the history of opera in general."—Lorenzo Bianconi
