Pages : 690
Book Description
Richard Engländers bahnbrechende wissenschaftliche Arbeiten zu Naumann und seinem Dresdner Umfeld in den 1920er Jahren blieben ohne die angemessene Resonanz, weil der Autor aus dem nationalsozialistischen Deutschland emigrieren musste. Im Jahre 2001, anlässlich des 200. Todestages des Dresdner Musikers, bot sich Gelegenheit, durch ein Internationales wissenschaftliches Symposion die verbliebenen Forschungslücken aus neuester Sicht schließen zu helfen. Die Beiträge von Wissenschaftlern aus aller Welt widmen sich überwiegend den zentralen Naumannschen Schaffensbereichen Oper und Kirchenmusik in all ihren Spielarten und setzen sich mit der europaweiten Rezeption und Überlieferung seines Werks auseinander.

The Songs of Hugo Wolf
Author: Eric SamsPublisher: Faber & Faber
ISBN: 0571280927
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 397
Book Description
With a foreword by the legendary accompanist, Gerald Moore, Eric Sams' study (Faber 1961, revised 1983) is a notable landmark in the establishment of Wolf as one of the supreme masters of German song. Comprehensively revised and enlarged in 1983, the main subject matter remains the 242 published songs that Wolf wrote for voice and piano, though the Ibsen songs for voice and orchestra are also discussed. English translations are provided and the backgrounds to the original poems by Morike, Eichendorff and Goethe, as well as the Italian and Spanish sources from which the songbooks were drawn, are fully explored. Each song is dated, its keys identified and vocal range determined. 'This is the most important book in the English language on the songs of Hugo Wolf since Ernest Newman proclaimed the composer's genius in 1907 . . . To the English-speaking student this work is a treasure to which he will find himself returning again and again: it is indispensable to those of us anxious to gain a deeper knowledge of Wolf.' Gerald Moore
Eighteenth-century Russian Music
Author: Marina RitzarevPublisher: Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.

Pages : 428
Book Description
Starting from an examination of the rich legacy of Russian music up to 1700, Marina Ritzarev explores the development of music over the course of the eighteenth century. The book focuses on what is characteristic and crucial to Russian music during this period, rather than seeking to provide a comprehensive survey. The musical culture of the time is discussed against the background of social, political and cultural life and the importance of previously marginalized sectors is highlighted. New light is also cast on the well-researched topic of Russian opera
