Book excerpt: An excerpt from the GENERAL REMARKS. THE popularity of the community orchestra has reached a stage where it would seem that every small city and town laying claim to any musical talent whatsoever aspires to have one of these organizations of its own. The writer, for many years actively interested in amateur musical affairs, conducting and playing in various organizations, having been- the recipient of numerous inquiries from parties about to organize community orchestras aims in this article to anticipate similar questions. It is also written in response to and prompted by the remark made to us frequently by out-of-town parties: "We wish that we could have a community orchestra in our town but we have no one to organize or conduct it." Although many of these places have their town hand still they realize that an orchestra is an entirely different proposition requiring a treatment of another kind owing to the diverse elements that enter into its composition. For years we have endeavored to find a book that we could suggest which would answer inquiries on the subject of the organization and conducting of the amateur orchestra, but strange as it may seem, we have so far been unable to find such a one dealing with the subject in a manner that would be of any real service to the conductor of the community orchestra. True there are many most excellent books treating on special subjects in the line of orchestral work which, while they are of value to the advanced music student or for reference to the musician, would be of but limited use to the amateur in his step by step advancement in the formation of his orchestra. Therefore it is our aim to give in this article the essential information which the amateur conductor of the community orchestra needs to attain musical excellence which should be his ideal.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Notes on Conductors and Conducting: Also the Organising and Conducting of Amateur Orchestras Not only are there large choirs in every city (and several in many of them), but the scattered choirs of the Nonconformist churches all over the country have formed themselves into local unions, under the guidance of the Nonconformist Choir Union, hav ing its headquarters in London, and giving an annual concert on a festival scale at the Crystal Palace. These choirs in their respective localities do a great deal of social as well as religious work, of great value. The choirs of the Church of England have grouped themselves, in their respective diocesan jurisdictions, into festival choirs, to hold annual services in the cathedrals, and to help one another in their church work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The conductor—tuxedoed, imposingly poised above an orchestra, baton waving dramatically—is a familiar figure even for those who never set foot in an orchestral hall. As a veritable icon for classical music, the conductor has also been subjected to some ungenerous caricatures, presented variously as unhinged gesticulator, indulged megalomaniac, or even outright impostor. Consider, for example: Bugs Bunny as Leopold Stokowski, dramatically smashing his baton and then breaking into erratic poses with a forbidding intensity in his eyes, or Mickey Mouse in Fantasia, unwittingly conjuring dangerous magic with carefree gestures he doesn’t understand. As these clichés betray, there is an aura of mystery around what a conductor actually does, often coupled with disbelief that he or she really makes a difference to the performance we hear. The Silent Musician deepens our understanding of what conductors do and why they matter. Neither an instruction manual for conductors, nor a history of conducting, the book instead explores the role of the conductor in noiselessly shaping the music that we hear. Writing in a clever, insightful, and often evocative style, world-renowned conductor Mark Wigglesworth deftly explores the philosophical underpinnings of conducting—from the conductor’s relationship with musicians and the music, to the public and personal responsibilities conductors face—and examines the subtler components of their silent art, which include precision, charisma, diplomacy, and passion. Ultimately, Wigglesworth shows how conductors—by simultaneously keeping time and allowing time to expand—manage to shape ensemble music into an immersive, transformative experience, without ever making a sound.

Download or read book A History of Orchestral Conducting written by Elliott W. Galkin and published by Pendragon Press. This book was released on 1988 with total page 944 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although the bibliography of literature about personalities in the conducting world is extensive, a comprehensive, scholarly study of the history of conducting has been sorely lacking. Georg Schünemann's respected study, published in 1913, was brief and restricted to the procedures of time-beating. No work has attempted to examine the role of the orchestral conductor and to document the evolution of his art from historical, technical, and aesthetic perspectives. Dr. Elliott W. Galkin, musicologist, conductor, and critic-twice winner of the Deems Taylor award for distinguished writing about music-has produced such a work in A History of Orchestral Conducting. The central historical section of the book, which examines chronologically the theories and functions of time-beating and interpretative concepts of performance, is preceded by discussions of rhythm, development of the orchestral medium, and the evolving characteristics of orchestration. Conductors of unusual pivotal influence are examined in depth, as is the increasingly complex psychology of the podium. Critical writings since the time of Monteverdi and the birth of the orchestra are surveyed and compared. Analyses of conducting as an art and craft by musicians from Berlioz to Bernstein and commentators from Mattheson, Bernard Shaw, and Thomas Mann to Jacques Barzun, are described and discussed. A fascinating collection of engravings, wood cuts, photographs and caricatures contributes to the richness of this work.
