Book Synopsis Twentieth-Century Organ Music by : Christopher S. Anderson
Download or read book Twentieth-Century Organ Music written by Christopher S. Anderson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-06-17 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume explores twentieth-century organ music through in-depth studies of the principal centers of composition, the most significant composers and their works, and the evolving role of the instrument and its music. The twentieth-century was a time of unprecedented change for organ music, not only in its composition and performance but also in the standards of instrument design and building. Organ music was anything but immune to the complex musical, intellectual, and socio-political climate of the time. Twentieth-Century Organ Music examines the organ's repertory from the entire period, contextualizing it against the background of important social and cultural trends. In a collection of twelve essays, experienced scholars survey the dominant geographic centers of organ music (France, the Netherlands, Scandinavia, the United States, and German-speaking countries) and investigate the composers who made important contributions to the repertory (Reger in Germany, Messiaen in France, Ligeti in Eastern and Central Europe, Howells in Great Britain). Twentieth-Century Organ Music provides a fresh vantage point from which to view one of the twentieth century's most diverse and engaging musical spheres.

Download or read book The Organ of the Twentieth Century written by George Ashdown Audsley and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-18 with total page 594 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Organ of the Twentieth Century: A Manual on All Matters Relating to the Science and Art Organ Tonal Apportionment and Divisional Apportionment With Compound Expression Under such circumstances it was only natural that I should take up pen and pencil to add something, however humble, to the literature of the Organ; especially at a time when so little of any real value was being said, and so little indicative of scientific and artistic advance was making its appearance in the organ-building world. My first essays in this direction appeared in the years 1886-8, in a series of articles published in the English Mechanic and World of Science; in which, for the first time in the literature of the Organ, an attempt was made to differentiate, in their proper tonal appoint ments, the Church Organ, the Concert-room Organ, and the Chamber Organ. These were followed by lectures and articles on the Swell in the Organ; in which, for the first time, the necessity of imparting powers of flexibility and expression to all the Manual Divisions and the Pedal Organ was advocated on logical and artistic grounds. In the year 1905 The Art of organ-building was offered to the organ-loving world. Since then my studies in tonal matters have been continued; their results furnishing the sole apology for the appearance of the present work, which I have ventured to entitle the organ OF the twentieth century.

Book Synopsis Perspectives on Early Keyboard Music and Revival in the Twentieth Century by : Rachelle Taylor
Download or read book Perspectives on Early Keyboard Music and Revival in the Twentieth Century written by Rachelle Taylor and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-12-15 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The twentieth-century revival of early music unfolded in two successive movements rooted respectively in nineteenth-century antiquarianism and in rediscovery of the value of original instruments. The present volume is a collection of insights reflecting the principal concerns of the second of those revivals, focusing on early keyboards, and beginning in the 1950s. The volume and its authors acknowledge Canadian harpsichordist Kenneth Gilbert (b. 1931) as one of this revival’s leaders. The content reflects international research on early keyboard music, sources, instruments, theory, editing, and discography. Considerations that echo throughout the book are the problematics of source attributions, progressive institutionalization of early music, historical instruments as agents of artistic change and education, antecedents and networks of the revival seen as a social phenomenon, the impact of historical performance and the quest for understanding style and genre. The chapters cover historical performance practice, source studies, edition, theory and form, and instrument curating and building. Among their authors are prominent figures in performance, music history, editing, instrument building and restoration, and theory, some of whom engaged with the early keyboard revival as it was happening.
