Charles Valentin Alkan
Author: Dr William Alexander EddiePublisher: Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.
ISBN: 1409493644
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 300
Book Description
A 'conservative radical' is William Alexander Eddie's description of the French virtuoso composer-pianist Charles Valentin Alkan (1813-1888). Judaic culture, the French baroque and German classicism were the main influences on Alkan's musical style, with more radical musical tendencies found in many of the Esquisses op 63. This comprehensive survey takes as its focus a stylistic analysis of Alkan's compositions from the apprentice works to the later 'massed style' etudes; the latter are of considerable length and pianistic difficulty. There is also consideration of Alkan's achievements as pianist and teacher, and the sections on performance practice in Alkan will be of interest to pianists today. A full investigation of Alkan's reception history is also included and useful appendices provide a guide to further archival research. A list of works and basic discography complete this new study of an important French composer.

Gabriel Faure

Pages : 329
Book Description
First published in 2000. Gabriel Urbain Fauré was brn 12 May 1845, in Pamiers in the south of France. Faure’s compositional style has proven difficult to classify. Some music historians consider him a figure of the nineteenth century, a traditionalist, even a neo-romantic; others consider him part of the twentieth century—at the least, a predecessor of modem French music or, at the other extreme, a quiet revolutionary and a great influence upon France’s musical future. This research guide offers a selective, annotated list of writings, biographical information and lists of works and photographs.

Music and the French Revolution
Author: Malcolm BoydPublisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780521402873
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 352
Book Description
Rouget de Lisle's famous anthem, La marseillaise, admirably reflects the confidence and enthusiasm of the early years of the French Revolution. But the effects on music of the Revolution and the events that followed it in France were more far-reaching than that. Hymns, chansons and even articles of the Constitution set to music in the form of vaudevilles all played their part in disseminating Revolutionary ideas and principles; music education was reorganized to compensate for the loss of courtly institutions and the weakened maitrises of cathedrals and churches. Opera, in particular, was profoundly affected, in both its organization and its subject matter, by the events of 1789 and the succeeding decade. The essays in this book, written by specialists in the period, deal with all these aspects of music in Revolutionary France, highlighting the composers and writers who played a major role in the changes that took place there. They also identify some of the traditions and genres that survived the Revolution, and look at the effects on music of Napoleon's invasion of Italy.
