Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dance Index, Vol. 2: March, 1943 The manner in which Nijinsky's face changes from role to role is immediately striking. It is en hanced by makeup, but not created by it. In fact a friend pointed out that the only role In which one recognizes Nijinsky's civilian face is that of Petrouchka where he is most heavily made up. There is no mystery about such transformability. People don't usually realize how much any face changes in the course of a day, and how often it is unrecognizable for an instant or two. Nijinsky seems to have controlled the variability a face has. The same metamorphosis is obvious in his body. The Spectre for instance has no age or sex, the Faun is adolescent, the hero of Jeux has a body full grown and experienced. Till can be either boy or man. The Slave in Scheherazade is fat, the Spectre is thin. It does not look like the same body. One can say that in this sense there is no exhibitionism in Nijinsky's photographs. He is never showing you himself, or an interpreta tion of himself. He is never vain of what he is showing you; The audience does not see him as a professional dancer, or as a professional charmer. He disappears completely, and instead there is an imaginary being in his place. Like a classic artist, he remains 'detac - hed, unseen, unmoved, disinter ested. Looking at him, one is in an imaginary world, entire and very clear; and one's emotions are not directed at their material objects, but at their imag inary satisfactions. As he said himself, he danced with love. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Synopsis Ballet and Opera in the Age of Giselle by : Marian Smith
Download or read book Ballet and Opera in the Age of Giselle written by Marian Smith and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2010-08-29 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marian Smith recaptures a rich period in French musical theater when ballet and opera were intimately connected. Focusing on the age of Giselle at the Paris Opéra (from the 1830s through the 1840s), Smith offers an unprecedented look at the structural and thematic relationship between the two genres. She argues that a deeper understanding of both ballet and opera--and of nineteenth-century theater-going culture in general--may be gained by examining them within the same framework instead of following the usual practice of telling their histories separately. This handsomely illustrated book ultimately provides a new portrait of the Opéra during a period long celebrated for its box-office successes in both genres. Smith begins by showing how gestures were encoded in the musical language that composers used in ballet and in opera. She moves on to a wide range of topics, including the relationship between the gestures of the singers and the movements of the dancers, and the distinction between dance that represents dancing (entertainment staged within the story of the opera) and dance that represents action. Smith maintains that ballet-pantomime and opera continued to rely on each other well into the nineteenth century, even as they thrived independently. The "divorce" between the two arts occurred little by little, and may be traced through unlikely sources: controversies in the press about the changing nature of ballet-pantomime music, shifting ideas about originality, complaints about the ridiculousness of pantomime, and a little-known rehearsal score for Giselle. ?

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dance Index, Vol. 3: Three or Four Graces; Sept., Oct., Nov., 1944 It is proverbial that a brief question may take volumes to answer in full - as, Who was Louis XVII? A summary reply can always be given as, the Lost Dauphin - but that only poses more questions than it answers.

Book Synopsis The Routledge Research Companion to Electronic Music: Reaching out with Technology by : Simon Emmerson
Download or read book The Routledge Research Companion to Electronic Music: Reaching out with Technology written by Simon Emmerson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-05-16 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The theme of this Research Companion is 'connectivity and the global reach of electroacoustic music and sonic arts made with technology'. The possible scope of such a companion in the field of electronic music has changed radically over the last 30 years. The definitions of the field itself are now broader - there is no clear boundary between 'electronic music' and 'sound art'. Also, what was previously an apparently simple divide between 'art' and 'popular' practices is now not easy or helpful to make, and there is a rich cluster of streams of practice with many histories, including world music traditions. This leads in turn to a steady undermining of a primarily Euro-American enterprise in the second half of the twentieth century. Telecommunications technology, most importantly the development of the internet in the final years of the century, has made materials, practices and experiences ubiquitous and apparently universally available - though some contributions to this volume reassert the influence and importance of local cultural practice. Research in this field is now increasingly multi-disciplinary. Technological developments are embedded in practices which may be musical, social, individual and collective. The contributors to this companion embrace technological, scientific, aesthetic, historical and social approaches and a host of hybrids – but, most importantly, they try to show how these join up. Thus the intention has been to allow a wide variety of new practices to have voice – unified through ideas of 'reaching out' and 'connecting together' – and in effect showing that there is emerging a different kind of 'global music'.

Book Synopsis Black Abolitionists in Ireland by : Christine Kinealy
Download or read book Black Abolitionists in Ireland written by Christine Kinealy and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-03-29 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Building on the narratives explored in volume one, this publication recovers the story of a further seven Black visitors to Ireland in the decades prior to the American Civil War. This volume examines each of these seven activists and artists, and how their unique and diverse talents contributed to the movement to abolish enslavement and to the demand for Black equality. In an era that witnessed the rise of minstrelsy, they provided a powerful counter argument to the lie of Black inferiority. Moreover, their interactions with Irish abolitionists helped to build a strong transatlantic movement that had a global reach and impact. The lives explored are: Ira Aldridge (the African Roscius), William Henry Lane (Master Juba), William P. Powell, Elizabeth Greenfield (the Black Swan), Reuben Nixon, James Watkins and William H. Day. Individually and collectively they demonstrated the agency and power of Black involvement in the search for social justice. This book will be of value to students and scholars alike interested in modern European history and social and cultural history.
