Listeners have enjoyed classical music recordings for more than a
century, yet important issues about recorded performances have been
little explored. What is the relationship between performance and
recording? How are modern audiences affected by the trends set in
motion by the recording era? What is the impact of recordings on
the lives of musicians? In this wide-ranging book, Robert Philip
extends the scope of his earlier pioneering book, Early Recordings
and Musical Style: Changing Tastes in Instrumental Performance
1900-1950. Philip here considers the interaction between
music-making and recording throughout the entire twentieth century.
The author compares the lives of musicians and audiences in the
years before recordings with those of today. He examines such
diverse and sometimes contentious topics as changing attitudes
toward freedom of expression, the authority of recordings made by
or approved by composers, the globalization of performing styles,
and the rise of the period instrument movement. Philip concludes
with a thought-provoking discussion of the future of classical
music performance.
