Menuhin
Author: Sir Humphrey Burton
Publisher: Faber & Faber
ISBN: 0571337694
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 463
Book Description
Since 2000, when this biography was first published, Menuhin's name has not faded from public attention, as often happens in the decades after the death of a popular performing artist. Far from it: the centenary of his birth, April 22, 1916, is being marked by celebrations around the world.Yehudi Menuhin was born in New York of Russian Jewish immigrants. Prodigiously gifted, the 'Miracle Boy' gave his first solo recital aged eight and within five years was world-famous. Menuhin was a visionary individualist, who didn't mind shocking the establishment. His post-war support for the conductor Wilhelm Furtwängler, and his determination to build bridges with the defeated German nation, brought him into sharp conflict with the Jewish establishment and DPs in Berlin. Later he spoke out against apartheid in South Africa and denounced the Soviet Union's oppressive policy towards writers and dissidents.Drawing on contemporary sources, unpublished family correspondence and radio interviews, Burton creates a compelling portrait of an extraordinary human being - one of the best-loved classical musicians of the twentieth century.

Enesco
Author: Boris I︠A︡kovlevich Kotli︠a︡rov
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 248
Book Description
This is a book about the great composer, violin virtuoso, piano virtuoso, and conductor (one of the most versatile musicians of our time), who is considered the father of Romanian nationalism in high-art music. Even after his death, young Romanian composers have turned to his scores in order to better understand the Romanian soul. In fact, his countrymen hold his memory in such regard that his hometown has been renamed after him. Nevertheless, his compositional style was cosmopolitan, with a distinctly Parisian flavor. (Indeed, we know his name in the spelling he adopted while living in France.) His most ambitious work was his four-act opera Oedipe, based on the Sophocles tragedy, but ending - unlike the original - on a note of triumph. This opera is extensively analyzed by the author, who has included in the text more than 80 musical examples from Enesco's works, making this book a must for music lovers who wish to become better acquainted with one of the masters of the twentieth century.
