Book Synopsis Modulation in Classical Music for Young Musicians by : Jaime E Kardontchik
Download or read book Modulation in Classical Music for Young Musicians written by Jaime E Kardontchik and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-04-07 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What makes a collection of notes a good piece of music, something that gets stuck in our brain? Why is it that we keep listening and enjoying the music of Bach, Mozart and Beethoven - composers long dead two hundred years ago? What makes a piece of music memorable? What are the rules of the grammar behind the music of the great masters? If we can understand the rules - then we could also teach them to kids. The first chapter of this book explains in plain words (or tones) the grammar of classical music. The next chapters describe a practical method that could be used by kids (or any adult interested in composing good music) to learn the basics, and some more, directly from the works of the great composers of classical music.

Download or read book Modulation for Young Musicians written by Jaime Kardontchik and published by . This book was released on 2019-02-05 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a 2nd edition of "Modulation in Classical Music for Young Musicians" (April 2017): It adds a new chapter on string quartets by Haydn and Mozart. The book uses the Do, Re, Mi, Fa, Sol, La, Si notation. (Another identical book using the A, B, C, D, E, F, G notation is also available.) Its intended audience is teenagers attending Middle and High School and students in their first two years of college. Following an introductory chapter that explains the grammar of classical music, the rest of the book uses numerous examples taken from the Preludes by Bach and the piano sonatas and string quartets by Haydn and Mozart, demonstrating how they applied the grammar principles in their works. The book is intended both for piano students and for students playing any other "classical" instrument, like the violin or the clarinet. If you know what a "scale" is and you play scales on your instrument - then you are ready to read and understand this book. The book can we used in two modes: It can be used to understand "how classical music works". An understanding of the grammar of classical music will provide the young musician with basic tools for use in the field of the Arts. But, going beyond the level of understanding, it can also be used to develop the creativity and writing skills of the young musician. Every explained example in the book - and there are many - is like a good short story from which the student can take the theme and be asked to elaborate on it, write a few variations on the theme. This is exactly how students at school acquire their writing and creativity skills in a common language: they are asked ("homework") to write short compositions about the stories discussed or books read at school or at home. One good short story at a time, day after day.

Book Synopsis Modulation in Beethoven's Sonatas by : Jaime Kardontchik
Download or read book Modulation in Beethoven's Sonatas written by Jaime Kardontchik and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-04-20 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "How did he do it"? As when one stands in front of a great novel or mystery book, this question comes to mind when listening to Beethoven's music. Why do his piano sonatas sound so different from Haydn's and Mozart's sonatas? What rules did he follow when he wrote them? Can we discern any patterns? What could a young musician learn from Beethoven's writing style that he/she could then use to compose her/his own music? Have the scores on hand, listen to a recording. And as you read the book, sit from time to time at the piano and try your own variations on Beethoven's ideas, a few bars at a time. Write them down in your own sketch book. Who knows? Perhaps, one day some of them will become the seeds from which you will write your own music. In ways you never thought before.

Book Synopsis How to Modulate by : Frank Hartson Shepard
Download or read book How to Modulate written by Frank Hartson Shepard and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-06-03 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from How to Modulate: A Simple and Systematic Guide in Modulating From Any Key to Any Other, and a Review of the Principles of Artistic Modulation as Applied in General Composition The student of Theory who is not content with a merely superficial view of the subject, will find that several of the principles here developed particularly the Attendant chords and the treatment of the Chords of the Augmented Sixth have a most important bearing not only upon Modulation but upon Musical Theory in general. In our standard works on Theory we have fine examples of Modulation, but there are few principles advanced and these do not apply in every case. Therefore it has been concluded that the Art of Modulation is a matter of experience and taste, and that the subject though it may be learned can not be taught. This little work shows that it may be reduced to a system and thoroughly mastered in a short time. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Music Theory and Composition: A Practical Approachpresents a pragmatic, accessible approach to music theory through an emphasis on melody and counterpoint.

Download or read book Listen to This written by Alex Ross and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2010-09-28 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of The Telegraph's Best Music Books 2011 Alex Ross's award-winning international bestseller, The Rest Is Noise: Listening to the Twentieth Century, has become a contemporary classic, establishing Ross as one of our most popular and acclaimed cultural historians. Listen to This, which takes its title from a beloved 2004 essay in which Ross describes his late-blooming discovery of pop music, showcases the best of his writing from more than a decade at The New Yorker. These pieces, dedicated to classical and popular artists alike, are at once erudite and lively. In a previously unpublished essay, Ross brilliantly retells hundreds of years of music history—from Renaissance dances to Led Zeppelin—through a few iconic bass lines of celebration and lament. He vibrantly sketches canonical composers such as Schubert, Verdi, and Brahms; gives us in-depth interviews with modern pop masters such as Björk and Radiohead; and introduces us to music students at a Newark high school and indie-rock hipsters in Beijing. Whether his subject is Mozart or Bob Dylan, Ross shows how music expresses the full complexity of the human condition. Witty, passionate, and brimming with insight, Listen to This teaches us how to listen more closely.
