Book Synopsis Chopin: The Four Ballades by : Jim Samson
Download or read book Chopin: The Four Ballades written by Jim Samson and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1992-10-30 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chopin's four ballades are widely regarded as being amongst the most significant extended works for solo piano of the nineteenth century. In an illuminating discussion, Jim Samson combines history and analysis to provide the reader with a comprehensive picture of these popular piano works. He begins by investigating the social and musical background to Chopin's unique style. He describes the manuscript sources and evaluates the many subsequent printed editions, then considers the critical reception of the ballades and the differing interpretations of well-known nineteenth- and twentieth-century pianists. The final two chapters examine the music of all four works analytically. There is a clearly presented formal synopsis of each ballade in turn, followed by a discussion of the works collectively which explores Chopin's own conception of the title 'ballade' and how it may be understood as a musical genre.

This Urtext edition includes ossia marked by Chopin himself or inscribed in his hand in pupils' copies. The National Edition of the Works of Fryderyk Chopin Published by PWM Exclusively Distributed by Hal Leonard Corporation Co-Editors Jan Ekier and Pawel Kaminski The objective of the National Edition is to present Chopin's complete output in its authentic form, based on the entire body of available sources. Sources were analyzed with up-to-date scientific and musicological methodology. The National Edition was based on sources originated from the composer, mainly autographs, copies of autographs and first editions with the composer's corrections, and pupils' copies with Chopin's annotations. In cases when original sources were lacking, the closest possible materials were used. Collecting the source materials was a laborious task which took years of effort. The characteristics of sources, the links and discrepancies between them as well as the reasons for particular editorial decisions are discussed in the Source Commentary in each volume. The Performance Commentary appended to each volume includes: the realization of ornaments, comments on pedal markings (the original markings sometimes are inadequate, due to the difference in sound between pianos used in Chopin`s times and modern pianos), suggestions as to the "harmonic legato" (a performance technique often used by Chopin and now forgotten).

Contained within this first volume are 4 Ballades, 27 Etudes, 21 Nocturnes, 27 Preludes, and 19 Waltzes which highlight the brilliance of Chopin. There is a detailed 25 page biography of the life and times of Frederic Chopin at the beginning. nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp; The book is then divided into 5 sections each containing a specific category of Chopin's catalogue of music:- nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;· Ballades nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;· Etudes nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;· Nocturnes nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;· Preludes nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;· Waltzes nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp; Here's a list of all the 98 musical compositions included:- Ballade No. 1 in G. minor, Op. 23 Ballade No. 2, Op. 38 Ballade No. 3, Op. 47 Ballade No. 4, Op. 52 Etude in F minor No. 1 Etude in A-flat major No. 2 Etude in D-flat major No. 3 Etude in C major, Op. 10, No. 1 Etude in A minor, Op. 10, No. 2 Etude in C-sharp minor, Op. 10, No. 4 Etude in G-flat major, Op. 10, No. 5 Etude in E-flat minor, Op. 10, No. 6 Etude in C major, Op. 10, No. 7 Etude in F major, Op. 10, No. 8 Etude in F minor, Op. 10, No. 9 Etude in A-flat major, Op. 10, No. 10 Etude in E-flat major, Op. 10, No. 11 Etude in C minor, Op. 10, No. 12 Etude in A-flat major, Op. 25, No. 1 Etude in F minor, Op. 25, No. 2 Etude in F major, Op. 25, No. 3 Etude in A minor, Op. 25, No. 4 Etude in E minor, Op. 25, No. 5 Etude in G-sharp minor, Op. 25, No. 6 Etude in C-sharp minor, Op. 25, No. 7 Etude in D-flat major, Op. 25, No. 8 Etude in G-flat major, Op. 25, No. 9 Etude in B minor, Op. 25, No. 10 Etude in A minor, Op. 25, No. 11 Etude in C minor, Op. 25, No. 12 Nocturne No. 1 to No. 21 Prelude in A-flat major Prelude Op. 28, No. 1 to No. 24 Prelude Op. 45, No. 25 Prelude No. 27 Grande Valse brillante in E-flat major, Op. 18 Waltz in Vivace A-flat major, Op. 34, B 94 No. 1 Waltz in Lento A minor, Op. 34, B64 No. 2 Waltz in Vivace F major, Op. 34, B118 No. 3 Waltz in A-flat major, Op. 42, B131 Waltz in D-flat major, Op. 64, B164 No. 1 Waltz in C-sharp minor, Op. 64, B164 No. 2 Waltz in A-flat major, Op. 64, B164 No. 3 Waltz in A-flat major, Op. 69, B95 No. 1 Waltz in B minor, Op. 69, B35 No. 2 Waltz in G-flat major, Op. 70, B92 No. 1 Waltz in F minor, Op. 70, B138 No. 2 Waltz in D-flat major, Op. 70, B40 No. 3 Waltz in E minor (Posthumous) Waltz in E major (Posthumous) Waltz in A-flat major, B21 Waltz in E-flat major, B46 Waltz in E-flat major, B133 Waltz in A minor, B150 nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp; We hope you enjoy playing the music of this musical genius as much as we enjoyed compiling it into this complete collection of works.

Book excerpt: In this edition each piece has a short description that will help the performer to grasp the artistic vision and convey it in the performance of the music. Chopin's four ballades are one-movement pieces for solo piano, composed between 1831 and 1842. They are some of the most challenging pieces in the standard piano repertoire.The term ballade was used by Chopin in the sense of a balletic interlude or dance-piece, equivalent to the old Italian ballata, but the term may also have connotations of the medieval heroic ballad, a narrative minstrel-song, often of a fantastical character. There are dramatic and dance-like elements in Chopin's use of the genre, and he may be said to be a pioneer of the ballade as an abstract musical form. The four ballades are said to have been inspired by poet Adam Mickiewicz. The exact inspiration for each individual ballade, however, is unclear and disputed.The ballades are considered an innovation of Chopin's and cannot be placed into another form (e.g. sonata). Though they do not conform exactly to sonata form, the "ballade form" created by Chopin for his four ballades is a distinct variant of sonata form with specific discrepancies, such as the mirror reprise (presenting the two expositional themes in reverse order during the recapitulation). The ballades have directly influenced composers such as Franz Liszt and Johannes Brahms who, after Chopin, wrote ballades of their own.Besides sharing the title, the four ballades are entities distinct from each other. According to composer and music critic Louis Ehlert, "Each [ballade] differs entirely from the others, and they have but one thing in common - their romantic working out and the nobility of their motifs." Modern theorists have shown, however, that the ballades do have much in common, such as the "ballade meter" (6/4 or 6/8) and certain formal practices like the mirror reprise and delaying the structural dominant.

Download or read book Play It Again written by Alan Rusbridger and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2013-09-17 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As editor of the Guardian, one of the world's foremost newspapers, Alan Rusbridger abides by the relentless twenty-four-hour news cycle. But increasingly in midlife, he feels the gravitational pull of music—especially the piano. He sets himself a formidable challenge: to fluently learn Chopin's magnificent Ballade No. 1 in G minor, arguably one of the most difficult Romantic compositions in the repertory. With pyrotechnic passages that require feats of memory, dexterity, and power, the piece is one that causes alarm even in battle-hardened concert pianists. He gives himself a year. Under ideal circumstances, this would have been a daunting task. But the particular year Rusbridger chooses turns out to be one of frenetic intensity. As he writes in his introduction, "Perhaps if I'd known then what else would soon be happening in my day job, I might have had second thoughts. For it would transpire that, at the same time, I would be steering the Guardian through one of the most dramatic years in its history." It was a year that began with WikiLeaks' massive dump of state secrets and ended with the Guardian's revelations about widespread phone hacking at News of the World. "In between, there were the Japanese tsunami, the Arab Spring, the English riots . . . and the death of Osama Bin Laden," writes Rusbridger. The test would be to "nibble out" twenty minutes per day to do something totally unrelated to the above. Rusbridger's description of mastering the Ballade is hugely engaging, yet his subject is clearly larger than any one piece of classical music. Play It Again deals with focus, discipline, and desire but is, above all, about the sanctity of one's inner life in a world dominated by deadlines and distractions. What will you do with your twenty minutes?
