The Elizabethan Lyric

Pages : 374
Book Description
Excerpt from The Elizabethan Lyric: A Study To the faculty of the English Department at Columbia the author is under heavy obligations. Professor W. P. Trent and Professor Brander Mat thews rendered valuable assistance by their corree tions and suggestions in the proof-sheets. Professor Trent, who directed the preparation of this book, put his time and his scholarship at the author's disposal with a generosity that only the author is in position to appreciate. When this preface was first written, the author here added a last word of gratitude and love for Professor Price, his master and friend, who sug gested this study and inspired many of its lead ing ideas. The words of admiration which were natural then, would now sound less fitting; death makes such praise seem idle. But the love and gratitude remain. This book will be read most kindly by those who knew Professor Price; may it represent him not unworthily to others.

Music on the Shakespearian Stage (Classic Reprint)
Author: G. H. CowlingPublisher: Forgotten Books
ISBN: 9780364049280
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 150
Book Description
Excerpt from Music on the Shakespearian Stage Whilst pondering over possible subjects, a music-teacher of my youth, the late Wallis Vincent, (one whom I admired greatly not only for his musicianship, which was considerable, but also for his delight in humorous poetry, his ready wit, and his genial kindness), lent me his manu script of a popular lecture on Shakespeare and Music. I was struck by the amount of fun he had got out of it, and foresaw that to make a deeper study of the subject would be to tread an interesting path. I made up my mind not to work the ground already appropriated by Mr E. W. Naylor and re-worked by Mr L. C. Elson, but to go further afield and describe the share taken by musicians in an Elizabethan play. I drew up a scheme, was lucky enough to have it accepted, and proceeded to collect materials to make it into a dissertation. The result is the following little book. It does not assume to be more than a sketch, which at some future time I hope to enlarge. I should have liked to read and ransack every play of the period for material, but alas, 1 had not time enough for this. Then why publish? I publish in order to report progress; but also because I think students of Shake speare and musical historians will find in this essay much that is of interest, and something that is new.

On Purity in Musical Art (Classic Reprint)

Book Description
Excerpt from On Purity in Musical Art The fact that this Essay was first published more than half a century ago, might seem, at first sight, to render its translation now a work of doubtful utility. But, inasmuch as it is still in demand in Germany, as is proved by the publication of the Fifth Edition as recently as in 1875, and looking to the great extension of the study and practice of music in our own country, I am persuaded that it will be read both with interest and with profit in England.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Renaissance of Music T HE most striking change of thought in the history of modern civilization and modern art is that which resulted from the gradual discovery that, shortly before the Christian era, there had been a civilization more refined, more complicated, and more artistic than any that had been known during the middle ages. It is this change which received the graphic name of, the Renaissance, and the object of these pages is to. Show that the musicians of that cultivated period were as much influenced by the. New revelation as their brothers of the brush, the chisel, and the square. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Great Musicians (Classic Reprint)

Pages : 370
Book Description
Excerpt from Great Musicians To be querulous over so serviceable a work may seem ungracious, and yet one cannot help regretting that, instead of attempting to mend some of the old articles, the Editor has not replaced them by new ones. For instance, the article on Palestrina, in Volume [i], lags years behind the latest results of Palestrina scholarship, while the sentence added, in square brackets, respecting Palestrina's second marriage, is so placed as to suggest (unintentionally, no doubt) a joke in very poor taste.
