Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Russian Music: Being an Account of the Rise and Progress of the Russian School of Composers, With a Survey of Their Lives and a Description of Their Works The present book has been undertaken with no other object than to fill a gap which though for a long time ignored has now made itself apparent to many musi cians and music-lovers. In a work of this character it is obviously impossible to include a comprehensive survey of operas such as those belonging to what I have called the pre-nation alist period. And, indeed, when my early chapters were written - at a date prior to the inaugural season of Russian opera at Drury Lane - there did not seem to be the faintest likelihood that Dargomijsky's Rus salka would ever be performed in England. As this work, however, has now figured in some of the pre liminary announcements of the approaching season, I am inserting its plot in an appendix.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Contemporary Russian Composers In regard to the title of this volume I may point out that it is hardly possible to observe the letter of the qualification Contemporary. My readers will no doubt have perceived that certain living composers are writing music which is far less advanced in style than that of other composers who are dead. While entitling this work contemporary russian composers, I have accorded a preferential treatment to music which has some claim to be considered as refleéting the spirit of our time, and I have assumed the pre rogative of ignoring all composers who do not write contemporary music and of dealing briefly with examples whose content is in no further need of exegesis.

In the late fifties it was commonly voted tedious by the average music lover in Petrograd. It had captured the esteem of a few progressive musicians, but even as late as in l 870 it was thought necessary by the Opera Directorate to make huge cuts in the score.

This book was released on 2018-01-31 with total page 548 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The National Music of Russia Musorgsky and Scriabin What did this movement mean, and what were the innovations which these Russian masters introduced into music? The answer is found in their works their music is distinguishable from all others, more by the characteristic materials than by'the spirit which animates it. But to describe these particular features in words is difficult. We can say with certainty that in their works, the melody, the tonality with the harmonic super-structures, the rhythms, are all as free as in the folk-songs them selves-a music which had existed before their age. And the fact that it is impossible to find such a freedom or any equivalent richness in the productions of those modern schools which are further removed from popular art, allows us to recognise the felicitous influence of this folk ele ment. But innovations of a tangible order are few in comparison with the value of the new Spirit which the Five were the first to assert.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tchaikovski Tchaikovski occupies a curious and inter esting position midway between the classi cism Of the school Of the great German masters and the national tendencies of the real Russian school. Although a follower Of the latter in his use Of the folk-song, the Slav melodies, and the general tone of his utterances, he leaned towards the classics in his use Of art forms and the methods Of expression adopted for the conveyance of his ideas and while his compatriot com posers vented their feelings in national operas, tone-poems, fantasias, and so forth, he still worked mainly on the lines of sym phony, suite, and concerto. Coloured as is his every work by his own dominating indi viduality of mood, his forms are still cast in classic shape, although here and there they break loose and run riot in extravagance Of thought and form. Classic he cannot be said to be, for the matter put forth is too emotional, too prolific and unrestrained. Yet his adherence to rigid forms in the large majority Of his great works keeps him outside the pale of the ultra-modem school.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Russian Opera Association of London five papers deal ing with the Development of National Opera in Russia, covering a period from the first perform ance of Glinka's A Life for the Tsar in 1836, to the production of rimsky-korsakov's opera The Tsar's Bride, in 1899. These lectures were illustrated by the following artists the late Mrs. Henry J. Wood, Miss Grainger Kerr, Mr. Seth Hughes, Mr. Robert Maitland; Sir (mr.) Henry J. Wood and Mr. Richard Epstein at the piano. While using these lectures as the scaffolding of my present book, I have added a considerable amount of new material, amassed during ten years unremitting research into my subject. The additions concern chiefly the earlier phases of Russian music, and the operas that have appeared since 1900. The volume also contains some account of the foundation of the nationalist school of composers. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Musorgsky, the Russian Musical Nationalist The Russian School resembles no other, either in history or in character. It suddenly blossomed forth in the middle of the nineteenth century, after a germinative period whose history can only be traced back with difficulty, but whose fruit ripened almost as soon as it appeared. Before the school was even fifty years old, it constituted a quite independent, homogeneous and extensive art. The case is so rare as to be at first discon certing. It is not only the rapidity Of growth which astonishes us, but also and especially the general excellence and the distinctive qualities which are common to nearly all the works exempli tying this school.

Book Synopsis The Epic Songs of Russia (Classic Reprint) by : Isabel Florence Hapgood
Download or read book The Epic Songs of Russia (Classic Reprint) written by Isabel Florence Hapgood and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-24 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Epic Songs of Russia In this issue the author has made a few slight corrections or alterations; but the Songs them selves, as well as the Introduction and Appendix, are substantially unchanged. Of the circum stances in which the Epic Songs of Russia are now placed before English readers, of the new spirit in which we now regard the Russian people, the dedication which she has prefixed to this edition may speak sufficiently. In the original edition of the work the late Pro fessor Francis Child, in a brief preface, bespoke a welcome for it, and expressed his own obligation to the author for her Spirited and sympathetic rendering. To that fine scholar, whose classical work on the English and Scottish Ballads gives him a lasting claim on our gratitude, its primary value was in the light it threw on his own studies in popular poetry, and the enlarged Scope it gave to a field that he had made peculiarly his own. But the vital and human value of these Epic Songs is not so much for the professed student of national tradition and popular art, as for a much larger circle for those who can still delight in the stories which kindled the imagination of past ages, and who recognize, in these fragments of a vanished world, spiritual kinship with all that poetry, from the Odyssey downwards, in which epic magnifi cence is interwoven with the witchery of romance.
