Download or read book Giacomo Puccini written by Roger Flury and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2012-06-21 with total page 937 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Opera recordings have been with us since the creation of the first wax cylinders. Now at a time when the 25-year reign of the compact disc appears to be coming to an end is the moment to take stock of the history of recordings of arguably the most popular composer of operas, Giacomo Puccini. In Giacomo Puccini: A Discography, librarian and music historian Roger Flury looks at each opera chronologically from Le Villi to Turandot, followed by sections on Puccini's instrumental, chamber, orchestral, and solo vocal works. Details of each complete opera are listed by recording date, followed by excerpts in the order in which they occur in the opera. Recordings of each aria are listed alphabetically by the name of the artist. For ease of use, Flury establishes as the main criteria for inclusion those recordings assigned a commercial issue number and available for purchase. This book does not limit itself to mainstream recordings but includes as well 'unofficial' recordings taken from broadcasts or illegally recorded in theaters, ensuring that the audio recording history of Puccini is free of gaps. (Video and DVD issues, whether of staged performances or excerpts in concert, are not included unless they have been issued in a sound-only format.) This volume brings together information on nearly 10,000 recordings of Puccini's music. It provides a comprehensive overview of the recorded history of the composer's works and serves as a useful guide for the transfer of recordings from one format to another.

Download or read book Discography written by Sean Singer and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2008-10-01 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This year’s winner of the Yale Series of Younger Poets competition is Sean Singer’s Discography. Playful, experimental, jazz-influenced, the poems in this book delight in sound and approach the more abstract pleasures of music. Singer takes as his subjects music, jazz figures, and historical events. Series judge W. S. Merwin praises Singer for his “roving demands on his language” and “the quick-changes of his invention in search of some provisional rightness.”

Book Synopsis The Immediate Discography: The First 20 Years by : Mark Jones
Download or read book The Immediate Discography: The First 20 Years written by Mark Jones and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2016 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of Best Discography in the 2017 Association for Recorded Sound Collections (ARSC) Awards for Excellence (Best Historical Research in Recorded Rock Music category). Immediate is bounded in time, a quaint time capsule synonymous with Swinging 60s London. Incorporation to insolvency was 5 five years but the reissues keep appearing 50 years on. Not surprising when you consider that the it was home to Small Faces, Nice, Rod Stewart, Humble Pie, Chris Farlowe, etc. Immediate was the 1st UK independent to score a number 1. This, perhaps, is one of the reasons that the label has such fervent admirers - 'the little bastard Immediate' stuck two fingers up at an oligopolistic industry that hadn't changed since before WW2. Without Immediate we might not have had Harvest, Vertigo, Nova or Dawn from the majors and we may not have seen further maverick-run independents, such as Charisma, Virgin or Stiff. Includes listings of all UK Immediate releases plus all known UK reissues up to 1985.
Book Synopsis John Ireland: A Catalogue, Discography and Bibliography by : Professor Stewart R Craggs
Download or read book John Ireland: A Catalogue, Discography and Bibliography written by Professor Stewart R Craggs and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2013-01-28 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Ireland (1879-1962) was one of the leading composers of the English Musical Renaissance at the end of the nineteenth century and beginning of the twentieth century. Born of literary parents in Bowdon, near Manchester, he went to London at the age of fourteen to study at the newly-founded Royal College of Music where he eventually became a pupil of Charles Villiers Stanford. Among his near contemporaries at the College were Ralph Vaughan Williams, Gustav Holst, Thomas Dunhill, William Y. Hurlstone, Henry Walford Davies and Samuel Coleridge-Taylor. Ireland is best known for his songs (such as Sea Fever, The Bells of San Marie and the cycle of Housman settings, The Land of Lost Content), his piano and chamber music, his church music and his relatively small number of choral, orchestral and brass band works. This catalogue of Ireland's compositions, a revised and enlarged edition of the one published in 1993 by the Clarendon Press (Oxford University Press), in association with the John Ireland Trust, lists his compositions from 1895 to 1961. Full details are given of dates of composition; people or bodies responsible for a work's commission; instrumentation; first performance; publications; location of the autograph manuscript; critical comment in the bibliography from the contemporary press and music journals, and recordings on compact disc. Appended is a general bibliography and classified index of main works. A list of personalia supplies details of people connected with Ireland and his music during his lifetime.

Book Synopsis The Virgin Discography: the 1970s by : Mark Jones
Download or read book The Virgin Discography: the 1970s written by Mark Jones and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2013 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Virgin label began with an eclectic and esoteric mix of left-field artists, including Mike Oldfield, Gong, Faust, Tangerine Dream and Henry Cow. Many of the resulting LPs are now considered to be important cultural reference points - is there anyone who hasn't heard of Tubular Bells? In 1977 Virgin signed the Sex Pistols. A horde of punk and new wave bands followed, such as XTC, Magazine, The Ruts and - as the Sex Pistols imploded - PIL. Following this, the iconic Front Line label was responsible for some of the best reggae ever heard, from artists such as U-Roy, Tapper Zukie, I-Roy, Keith Hudson, The Gladiators, Culture and the Twinkle Brothers. This book covers the 'classic' years and is an absolute must for anyone with half an ear open - let's face it, during the 1970s Virgin defined the nation's - if not the world's - musical taste. All known releases on Virgin and related labels are documented here - from Tubular Bells to numerous forgotten gems that deserve much greater recognition.
Book Synopsis The Ventures Essential Albums Discography by : Arnold E. van Beverhoudt, Jr.
Download or read book The Ventures Essential Albums Discography written by Arnold E. van Beverhoudt, Jr. and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2015-02-07 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Ventures are recognized as the most popular and successful instrumental rock and roll band in the world. They were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2008, the 50th anniversary of the band's formation by Don Wilson and Bob Bogle. This book offers my suggestions for what I consider to be an ""essential albums collection"" of The Ventures' music. I limited the listings to albums (LPs, EPs, and CDs) released in the United States, Japan, and the United Kingdom that would provide a reasonably complete library of the almost 1,200 different songs recorded by The Ventures during their 55 years of existence to date (1959 to 2014). If you have all of these albums, you'll have virtually the entire recorded and officially-released library of The Ventures' music. Please note that this book contains album cover art, label information, and track list for each album listed. It does not include review commentary on the albums.

Book Synopsis The B&C Discography: 1968 to 1975 by : Mark Jones
Download or read book The B&C Discography: 1968 to 1975 written by Mark Jones and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2015 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Updated and expanded second edition of this Award Nominated book (nominated for the 2014 ARSC Award for Excellence in Historical Recorded Sound Research). Strictly limited edition of 50 copies in green jacket design. B&C started life as a distribution company, which was set up as a sister company to Island. Island's early success led B&C's owner, Lee Gopthal, to start releasing records in his own right. However, B&C's main strategy was based on licensing records rather than signing artists in its own right and many of B&C's labels concentrated on singles and budget compilation albums - strategies that set the seeds of the company's own destruction. The end, when it came in 1975 was probably inevitable. Still, whilst B&C was about, some very good music got released, almost despite itself on occasion. This book includes comprehensive discographies covering the Action, Stable, B&C, Charisma, Pegasus, Peg, People, Mooncrest, Dragon, Sussex and Seven Sun labels.

Structured to make locating details easy for readers, the recordings are organized chronologically and categorized by albums, singles, private pressings, and foreign releases. Readers can easily cross-reference through album and song title indexes and a contributing artist index.
