Download or read book Twentieth Century Organ Music written by Christopher S. Anderson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-06-17 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume explores twentieth-century organ music through in-depth studies of the principal centers of composition, the most significant composers and their works, and the evolving role of the instrument and its music. The twentieth-century was a time of unprecedented change for organ music, not only in its composition and performance but also in the standards of instrument design and building. Organ music was anything but immune to the complex musical, intellectual, and socio-political climate of the time. Twentieth-Century Organ Music examines the organ's repertory from the entire period, contextualizing it against the background of important social and cultural trends. In a collection of twelve essays, experienced scholars survey the dominant geographic centers of organ music (France, the Netherlands, Scandinavia, the United States, and German-speaking countries) and investigate the composers who made important contributions to the repertory (Reger in Germany, Messiaen in France, Ligeti in Eastern and Central Europe, Howells in Great Britain). Twentieth-Century Organ Music provides a fresh vantage point from which to view one of the twentieth century's most diverse and engaging musical spheres.

Download or read book Organ Literature of the Seventeenth Century written by John R. Shannon and published by . This book was released on 1978 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The seventeenth is the greatest of all centuries for the organ and for its literature. Never before or since has this instrument served as such an important medium of musical composition. Such composers as Frescobaldi, Cabanilles, De Grigny, the Couperins, Sweelinck, Scheidemann, Scheidt, Bruhns, Buxtehude, Froberger, and Pachelbel regarded it as their principal outlet for creative expression. In this study, the author first traces the origins of seventeenth-century styles in the keyboard music of the late Renaissance; he then devotes individual chapters to each of the important geographical styles of seventeenth-century organ music. The book's point of orientation is the manner in which each of these styles develops its own unique vocabulary and set of compositional techniques. The text is illustrated by some two hundred musical examples carefully selected to demonstrate each stylistic development. The volume concludes with a selected and annotated bibliography of readily available performances of the entire repertory." --Dust jacket.
