You will find works influenced by the blues, jazz, and ragtime and works built on exotic scales, African folk-tunes, and drumming rhythms. The volumes are graded, ranging from beginner (Vol. 1) to advanced (Vol. 5). They provide exciting material for pianists just beginning their studies and for those who are looking for new and exciting recital repertoire.

How should one interpret music of another century? What standards should be applied to an eighteenth century harpsichord work, for instance, being performed on a piano? Keyboard ""methods""--systematic approaches to training, touch, and interpretation--did not evolve until the nineteenth century, and written methodologies are few. Drawing on primary sources, the author has compiled a detailed analysis of such keyboard ""methods"" as existed in Europe in the seventeenth, eighteenth, and nineteenth centuries. Most were developed by Couperin, C.P.E. Bach, Turk, J.S. Bach, Mozart, Chopin and Liszt. Also discussed, with translations from their writings and their critics', are the detailed theoretical works by Kullak and Lussy. Analysis shows which techniques had been adapted from earlier practice and which were original to the composer, demonstrating the evolution of the various methods. Techniques useful in the interpretation of period material, and which still have important applications today, are pointed out.

Mozart in Mannheim; Station auf dem Weg eines musikalischen Genies (German, Paperback): Hermann Jung Mozart in Mannheim; Station auf dem Weg eines musikalischen Genies (German, Paperback)
Hermann Jung
R1,643 Discovery Miles 16 430 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

176 Tage verbrachte Wolfgang Amade Mozart in der kurpfalzischen Residenz Mannheim. Von den insgesamt vier Aufenthalten war der zwischen November 1777 und Marz 1778 der langste und fur sein weiteres Leben zugleich entscheidende. Ohne Vater Leopold, der von Salzburg aus die Geschicke seines Sohnes zu lenken versuchte, fand der damals gerade 21jahrige in Begleitung seiner Mutter Maria Anna rasch Anschluss an den Hof des Kurfursten Carl Theodor sowie zu den Musikern der Hofkapelle und deren Familien. Doch die ersehnte Anstellung als Kapellmeister und Compositeur zerschlug sich. Auch die Liebe zu Aloysia Weber, einer 16jahrigen talentierten Sangerin, zerbrach; Mozart heiratete spater in Wien deren Schwester Konstanze. Mannheim - eine Kette von Enttauschungen, von begrabenen Hoffnungen, von Niederlagen? Gewiss! Doch Mozart wuchs an ihnen und durch sie als Mensch, als Kunstler und als Komponist: notwendige Stationen des Reifens und des Erwachsenwerdens fur ein zukunftiges musikalisches Genie. Der Tagungsband versammelt Beitrage zu Kunst und Kultur des Hofes und seines beruhmten Orchesters, zu Analyse, Deutung und Auffuhrungspraxis der in Mannheim entstandenen Werke, zur Korrespondenz als wesentliche musikhistorische Quelle des Aufenthaltes, zur kompositorischen Rezeption sowie zwei Aufsatze zu Mozarts Prager Beziehungen.

Shura Cherkassky - The Piano's Last Czar (Hardcover): Elizabeth Carr Shura Cherkassky - The Piano's Last Czar (Hardcover)
Elizabeth Carr
R2,099 Discovery Miles 20 990 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

Shura Cherkassky's life story, like his piano playing, is provocative and captivating. At his death in 1995, Cherkassky was considered one of history's greatest pianists, as well as the last direct link to the Romantic piano tradition of Chopin, Liszt, and Anton Rubinstein. Cherkassky's story merits telling not only for his musical achievements but also for the inspiration he provided by demonstrating tenacity, integrity, common sense, and uncommon courage. Cherkassky began his concert playing life in Ukrainian Odessa at a time of lethal civil strife. Escaping with his parents to America, the child prodigy came under the tutelage of famed pianist Josef Hofmann, whose unfailing personal and professional assistance continued for more than twenty years. Cherkassky overcame poverty, prejudice against his Jewish origins, and unhappiness from his ambivalence over his homosexuality to forge an impressive touring and recording career, an enormous musical repertoire, and an intriguing personality both on stage and off. From his sensational 1923 American debut tour to sold-out concerts on six continents, Cherkassky retained his brilliance throughout a seventy-five year professional career. As a close friend for his last twenty years, author Elizabeth Carr traveled with Cherkassky on tour, attending recording and rehearsal sessions and watching him practice, plan programs, and cope with pianos, acoustics, conductors, and orchestras. Her role as confidante results in a keen understanding of Cherkassky both as a human being and a performer. Through observations, anecdotes, sixteen pages of photos, and personal correspondence reprinted in the book, this biography offers extensive research never before published, and an intimate look at the man and his music.

The Reception of Bach's Organ Works from Mendelssohn to Brahms (Hardcover): Russell Stinson The Reception of Bach's Organ Works from Mendelssohn to Brahms (Hardcover)
Russell Stinson
R2,164 Discovery Miles 21 640 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

In this penetrating study, Russell Stinson explores how four of the greatest composers of the nineteenth century-Felix Mendelssohn, Robert Schumann, Franz Liszt, and Johannes Brahms-responded to the model of Bach's organ music. The author shows that this quadrumvirate not only borrowed from Bach's organ works in creating their own masterpieces, whether for keyboard, voice, orchestra, or chamber ensemble, but that they also reacted significantly to the music as performers, editors, theorists, and teachers. Furthermore, the book reveals how these four titans influenced one another as "receptors" of this repertory and how their mutual acquaintances-especially Clara Schumann-contributed as well. As the first comprehensive discussion of this topic ever attempted, Stinson's book represents a major step forward in the literature on the so-called Bach revival. He considers biographical as well as musical evidence to arrive at a host of new and sometimes startling conclusions. Filled with fascinating anecdotes, the study also includes detailed observations on how these composers annotated their personal copies of Bach's organ works. Stinson's book is entirely up-to-date and offers much material previously unavailable in English. It is meticulously annotated and indexed, and it features numerous musical examples and facsimile plates as well as an exhaustive bibliography. Included in an appendix is Brahms's hitherto unpublished study score of the Fantasy in G Major, BWV 572. Engagingly written, this study should be read by anyone interested in the music of Bach or the music of the nineteenth century.
