Book Synopsis Guide to the Study of Musical History and Criticism (Classic Reprint) by : Edward Dickinson
Download or read book Guide to the Study of Musical History and Criticism (Classic Reprint) written by Edward Dickinson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-25 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Guide to the Study of Musical History and Criticism The topics and references contained in the following pages are intended as an aid to those who wish to study musical history and criticism in a systematic and scholar-like manner. The time has gone by when the authority of a single book or a Single author could meet the demands of an intelligent curiosity. In history, litera ture, - every department of research in which the reliance is wholly or partially upon books, it is now taken for granted that the only rational method is the examination of many authorities with the aid of abstracts, topics, references, and similar guides. The scheme of this present manual is to indicate what material exists in English for the study of musical history, and how that material may be used to the greatest advantage. The topics are synopses of lectures given at Oberlin College; but they are also of general utility, for they summarize the most important phases of the subject, and show the student along what lines his inquiry must proceed. The method is to treat the topics as questions, and find the answers in the references. The author has in general, avoided references to books that are difficult to procure. Only those articles in periodicals are cited which deal with subjects that are not so well or concisely covered in any of the books available, or which have a special interest given them by their authorship.

Download or read book America, the Band written by Jude Warne and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2020-05-15 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As if recovering from a raucous dream of the 1960s, Gerry Beckley, Dewey Bunnell, and Dan Peek arrived on 1970s American radio with a sound that echoed disenchanted hearts of young people everywhere. The three American boys had named their band after a country they’d watched and dreamt of from their London childhood Air Force base homes. What was this country? This new band? Classic and timeless, America embodied the dreams of a nation desperate to emerge from the desert and finally give their horse a name. Celebrating the band’s fiftieth anniversary, Gerry Beckley and Dewey Bunnell share stories of growing up, growing together, and growing older. Journalist Jude Warne weaves original interviews with Beckley, Bunnell, and many others into a dynamic cultural history of America, the band, and America, the nation. Reliving hits like “Ventura Highway,” “Tin Man,” and of course, “A Horse with No Name” from their 19 studio albums and incomparable live recordings, this book offers readers a new appreciation of what makes some music unforgettable and timeless. As America’s music stays in rhythm with the heartbeats of its millions of fans, new fans feel the draw of a familiar emotion. They’ve felt it before in their hearts and thanks to America, they can now hear it, share it, and sing along.

Book Synopsis Words Without Music: A Memoir by : Philip Glass
Download or read book Words Without Music: A Memoir written by Philip Glass and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2015-04-06 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York Times Bestseller "Reads the way Mr. Glass's compositions sound at their best: propulsive, with a surreptitious emotional undertow." —Corinna da Fonseca-Wollheim, New York Times Philip Glass has, almost single-handedly, crafted the dominant sound of late-twentieth-century classical music. Yet in Words Without Music, his critically acclaimed memoir, he creates an entirely new and unexpected voice, that of a born storyteller and an acutely insightful chronicler, whose behind-the-scenes recollections allow readers to experience those moments of creative fusion when life so magically merged with art. From his childhood in Baltimore to his student days in Chicago and at Juilliard, to his first journey to Paris and a life-changing trip to India, Glass movingly recalls his early mentors, while reconstructing the places that helped shape his creative consciousness. Whether describing working as an unlicensed plumber in gritty 1970s New York or composing Satyagraha, Glass breaks across genres and re-creates, here in words, the thrill that results from artistic creation. Words Without Music ultimately affirms the power of music to change the world.
