Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from My Life, Vol. 2 of 2 Minna had been lucky enough to find quarters near Zurich which corresponded very closely with the wishes I had so emphatically expressed before leaving. The house was situated in the parish of Enge, a good fifteen minutes' walk from the town, on a site overlooking the lake, and was an old-fashioned hostelry called 'Zum Abendstern' belonging to a certain Frau Hirel, who was a pleasant old lady. The second floor, which was quite self-contained and very quiet, offered us humble but adequate accommodations for a modest rent. I arrived early in the morning and found Minna still in bed. She was anxious to know whether I had returned simply out of pity; but I quickly succeeded in obtaining her promise that she would never again refer to what had taken place. She was soon quite herself again when she began to show me the progress she had made in arranging the rooms. Our position had for some years been growing more comfortable, in spite of the fact that at this time various difficulties again arose, and our domestic happiness seemed tolerably secure. Yet I could never quite master a restless inclination to deviate from anything that was regarded as conventional. Our two pets, Peps and Papo, largely helped to make our lodgings homelike; both were very fond of me, and were sometimes even too obtrusive in showing their affection. Peps would always lie behind me in the armchair while I was working, and Papo, after repeatedly calling out 'Richard' in vain, would often come fluttering into my study if I stayed away from the sitting-room too long. He would then settle down on my desk and vigorously shuffle about the papers and pens. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Orchestra written by Ebenezer Prout and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-17 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Orchestra, Vol. 2 With the present volume the subject of Instrumentation is completed. After what was said in the preface to the first volume of this work, no lengthy remarks will be needful here. The first thing to be said is, that here, more than in any other volume of this series, it has been necessary to teach by example. It will be seen, therefore that the quotations from orchestral scores occupy a far larger portion of the space than the letterpress. Merely to talk about combinations of instruments, without giving actual illustrations, would have been absolutely useless to the student. As in the preceding volume, the passages selected have been taken from works of the most varied style, and of different periods, from the time of Haydn down to the present day. With the exception of two passages by Bach and Handel in Chapter VII., illustrating the employment of the organ, no examples have been quoted anterior to Haydn; for it is with this composer that the modern science of orchestration may be said to begin. Though a few well-known extracts will be found among the illustrations, special effort has been made to avoid, as far as possible, hackneyed quotations, and the author believes that the very large majority of the examples given will be new to the greater number of his readers. With a view of systematizing the teaching as far as possible, the stringed orchestra is first dealt with; this subject is comparatively so simple that its treatment presented but little difficulty. In the following chapter, the management of the wind instruments - a much more complicated subject - is spoken of To do anything like justice to this question, a large number of illustrations were absolutely necessary.

Download or read book The Orchestra and How to Listen to It Classic Reprint written by Montagu Montagu-Nathan and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-22 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Orchestra and How to Listen to It As a conclusion to these prefatory remarks it Should be acknowledged that this little book cannot possibly fulfil its intended purpose unless the splendidly courageous efforts of a number of conductors and orchestras in London and the Provinces, whose financial remuneration is entirely incommensurate with the labour they expend, are enabled to continue. In the following chapters the problem of the orchestra and how to listen to it is fully discussed in all particulars save one. To publish a dissertation on How to be Happy tho' Married for circulation in an Eveless Eden would be the limit of futility. The present author will not, it is hoped. Be accused of a lurking ambition to become a best-seller if he expresses a pious h0pe that the day may not be distant on which a locality that does not possess and support its own orchestra will be deemed unworthy to control its own destinies.

Download or read book Yale Classics Vol 2 written by Lucius Annaeus Seneca and published by DigiCat. This book was released on 2023-11-21 with total page 5588 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection is based on the required reading list of Yale Department of Classics. Originally designed for students, this anthology is meant for everyone eager to know more about the history and literature of this period, interested in poetry, philosophy and rhetoric of Ancient Rome. Latin literature is a natural successor of Ancient Greek literature. The beginning of Classic Roman literature dates to 240 BC. From that point on, Latin literature would flourish for the next six centuries. Latin was the language of the ancient Romans, but it was also the lingua franca of Western Europe throughout the Middle Ages. Consequently, Latin Literature outlived the Roman Empire and it included European writers who followed the fall of the Empire, from religious writers like Aquinas, to secular writers like Francis Bacon, Baruch Spinoza, and Isaac Newton. This collection presents all the major Classic Roman authors, including Cicero, Virgil, Ovid and Horace whose work intrigues and fascinates readers until this day. Content: Plautus: Aulularia Amphitryon Terence: Adelphoe Ennius: Annales Catullus: Poems and Fragments Lucretius: On the Nature of Things Julius Caesar: The Civil War Sallust: History of Catiline's Conspiracy Cicero: De Oratore Brutus Horace: The Odes The Epodes The Satires The Epistles The Art of Poetry Virgil: The Aeneid The Georgics Tibullus: Elegies Propertius: Elegies Cornelius Nepos: Lives of Eminent Commanders Ovid: The Metamorphoses Augustus: Res Gestae Divi Augusti Lucius Annaeus Seneca: Moral Letters to Lucilius Lucan: On the Civil War Persius: Satires Petronius: Satyricon Martial: Epigrams Pliny the Younger: Letters Tacitus: The Annals Quintilian: Institutio Oratoria Juvenal: Satires Suetonius: The Twelve Caesars Apuleius: The Metamorphoses Ammianus Marcellinus: The Roman History Saint Augustine of Hippo: The Confessions Claudian: Against Eutropius Boethius: The Consolation of Philosophy Plutarch: The Rise and Fall of Roman Supremacy: Romulus Poplicola Camillus Marcus Cato Lucullus Fabius Crassus Coriolanus Cato the Younger Cicero
