Book Synopsis Postclassical Violin - Book 1 by : Charlie McCarthy
Download or read book Postclassical Violin - Book 1 written by Charlie McCarthy and published by Charlie McCarthy. This book was released on 2020-10-01 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An instruction manual for the modern violinist in how to improvise solo and accompianament lines over jazz and folk music. Postclassical is a term used to descripe music genres and musicality which players investigate after a prolonged period or immersed career of playing exclusively classical music. It is a great way to utilise your existing knowledge and technique in other genres. The objective of this book is to guide string players through a structured and sequenced path to becoming a more fluent improvisor and a more effective ensemble member. You will achieve this by also expanding your role as an accompaniment instrument in an ensemble setting. This book is aimed at players who are already reasonably fluent with their instrument and musical vernacular and who can read sheet music, chord charts and lead sheets. There are eighty tunes from the swing Manouche style used in this system; the idea being that you increase your repertoire whilst developing your knowledge of playing through this genre. It is essential to learn and memorise the chord progression and form of each tune BEFORE you memorise the melody. If you only learn the melody, then you only know half of the tune. Be like a conductor, be aware of what everyone in the band is doing, what all the other roles are in a tune. Immerse yourself in a genre and remember; you are what you listen to. The skills presented are not specific to jazz. These concepts are easily transferrable to bluegrass, old timey, swing, folk, trad and other genres with elements of spontaneous creativity and mixed instrumentation. I chose Manouche jazz as the medium for these techniques as I have the most experience in this genre and there is an abundance of repertoire and recordings. As a style it features the violin quite prominently, it is great fun to learn about and play and I really enjoy it.

Book excerpt: What is rhythm violin? The violin sings and the fiddle dances. In the same way there is lead guitar and rhythm guitar, we can have lead violin and rhythm violin also. Rhythm violin playing is when you accompany dance melodies with repetitive bowing patterns. This kind of bowing is very common in most folk and dance styles and the most well-known bowing variation for this is called The Shuffle (also known sometimes as the Nashville shuffle). In 16 concise pages with clear examples and a little bit of dyad theory, learn how to accompany any melody with nothing but a leadsheet or even just a chord progression written on the back of a beermat.
Book Synopsis Arabic Literature in the Post-Classical Period by : Roger Allen
Download or read book Arabic Literature in the Post-Classical Period written by Roger Allen and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2006-04-13 with total page 419 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The final volume of The Cambridge History of Arabic Literature explores the Arabic literary heritage of the little-known period from the twelfth to the beginning of the nineteenth century. Even though it was during this time that the famous Thousand and One Nights was composed, very little has been written on the literature of the period generally. In this volume Roger Allen and Donald Richards bring together some of the most distinguished scholars in the field to rectify the situation. The volume is divided into parts with the traditions of poetry and prose covered separately within both their 'elite' and 'popular' contexts. The last two sections are devoted to drama and the indigenous tradition of literary criticism. As the only work of its kind in English covering the post-classical period, this book promises to be a unique resource for students and scholars of Arabic literature for many years to come.

Book Synopsis Classical Music in a Changing World by : Lawrence Kramer
Download or read book Classical Music in a Changing World written by Lawrence Kramer and published by Vernon Press. This book was released on 2021-09-07 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years classical music has become a test case for debates over the future of culture. As times have changed, the value traditionally placed on this music has been challenged on social rather than aesthetic grounds. Lovers of classical music have been asked how its privileged history can be reconciled with growing demands for social justice and social inclusiveness. They have been asked how the music’s standing as one of the great accomplishments of the West can be reconciled with the many injustices on which those accomplishments in part depended. How can the future of classical music escape the darker shadows of its past? ‘Classical Music in a Changing World: Crisis and Vital Signs’ addresses the crisis provoked by such questions in two complementary ways. Several of the chapters show how the classical music world is already grappling with the crisis, and finding vital signs beyond the borders of the music’s traditional European strongholds: in Turkey from Ottoman times to the present, in Colombia, and in a Black American film. Other chapters identify areas that still need improvement, especially on behalf of female and LGBTQ+ musicians, and suggest how advances can be made both on concert stages and in schools. This volume, which opens with an introduction by Alberto Nones that contextualizes the book and outlines the main arguments of its chapters, contains an essay by Lawrence Kramer that examines the place of classical music in the history of consciousness—a history now changing rapidly—and concludes with a Postscript written by the two editors. The writing in this volume will be accessible to a wide audience, including scholars and students, professionals and amateurs, performers and listeners. Teachers will find it a source of lively classroom debate, and scholars a source of learning outside the usual arenas. The book’s “vital signs” include the accompanying audio tracks (available for download at: https://vernonpress. com/book/1281), which feature vibrant music-making from a diverse range of performers and composers.
Book Synopsis French Music Since Berlioz by : Caroline Potter
Download or read book French Music Since Berlioz written by Caroline Potter and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: French Music Since Berlioz explores key developments in French classical music during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. This volume draws on the expertise of a range of French music scholars who provide their own perspectives on particular aspects of the subject. D dre Donnellon's introduction discusses important issues and debates in French classical music of the period, highlights key figures and institutions, and provides a context for the chapters that follow. The first two of these are concerned with opera in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries respectively, addressed by Thomas Cooper for the nineteenth century and Richard Langham Smith for the twentieth. Timothy Jones's chapter follows, which assesses the French contribution to those most Germanic of genres, nineteenth-century chamber music and symphonies. The quintessentially French tradition of the nineteenth-century salon is the subject of James Ross's chapter, while the more sacred setting of Paris's most musically significant churches and the contribution of their organists is the focus of Nigel Simeone's essay. The transition from the nineteenth to the twentieth century is explored by Roy Howat through a detailed look at four leading figures of this time: Faur Chabrier, Debussy and Ravel. Robert Orledge follows with a later group of composers, Satie & Les Six, and examines the role of the media in promoting French music. The 1930s, and in particular the composers associated with Jeune France, are discussed by Deborah Mawer, while Caroline Potter investigates Parisian musical life during the Second World War. The book closes with two chapters that bring us to the present day. Peter O'Hagan surveys the enormous contribution to French music of Pierre Boulez, and Caroline Potter examines trends since 1945. Aimed at teachers and students of French music history, as well as performers and the inquisitive concert- and opera-goer, French Music Since Berlioz is an essential companion for an

Book Synopsis Schumann's Virtuosity by : Alexander Stefaniak
Download or read book Schumann's Virtuosity written by Alexander Stefaniak and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2016-09-19 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A valuable resource for musicologists, theorists, pianists, and aestheticians interested in reading about Schumann’s views on virtuosity.” —Notes Considered one of the greatest composers—and music critics—of the Romantic era, Robert Schumann (1810–1856) played an important role in shaping nineteenth-century German ideas about virtuosity. Forging his career in the decades that saw abundant public fascination with the feats and creations of virtuosos (Liszt, Paganini, and Chopin among others), Schumann engaged with instrumental virtuosity through not only his compositions and performances but also his music reviews and writings about his contemporaries. Ultimately, the discourse of virtuosity influenced the culture of Western “art music” well beyond the nineteenth century and into the present day. By examining previously unexplored archival sources, Alexander Stefaniak looks at the diverse approaches to virtuosity Schumann developed over the course of his career, revealing several distinct currents in nineteenth-century German virtuosity and the enduring flexibility of virtuosity discourse.

Book Synopsis Clara Schumann Studies by : Joe Davies
Download or read book Clara Schumann Studies written by Joe Davies and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2021-12-02 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the 1980s, when she re-emerged from the peripheries into a more central position in music studies, Clara Schumann (1819–1896) has exerted an enduring fascination over the scholarly and popular imagination. Revisionist biographies, the uncovering of primary sources (diaries, letters, memorabilia), and filmic and literary depictions of Schumann have all brought into sharper focus the details and reception of her life, while simultaneously drawing attention to how much there is still to learn about her creativity. This book brings together a team of leading scholars to reappraise Clara Schumann in three particular respects: first, by delving deeper into her social and musical contexts; secondly, by offering fresh analytical perspectives on her songs and instrumental music; and thirdly, by reconsidering her legacy as a pianist and teacher. In doing so, the volume not only contributes to a rounded picture of Schumann's creative vision, but also opens up new pathways in the wider study of women in music.
Book Synopsis Franz Liszt, His Circle, and His Elusive Oratorio by : Xavier Jon Puslowski
Download or read book Franz Liszt, His Circle, and His Elusive Oratorio written by Xavier Jon Puslowski and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2014-09-09 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many scholars, concert pianists, and classical music fans deem Franz Liszt the preeminent pianist of the nineteenth century. In Franz Liszt, His Circle, and His Elusive Oratorio, Xavier Puslowski engages in a detailed study of the links between Liszt, his contemporaries, and his milieu. Drawing on Liszt’s famous Saint Stanislas Oratorio as a focal point, Puslowski brings together the history of the Romantic period in classical music and the intersection of key figures and historical events in his story of Liszt’s achievements told from a distinctly historicist perspective. Readers get a new view of Liszt as Puslowski brings together a remarkable cast of characters. Friend and rival, Frederic Chopin, stands tall as a symbol of Poland’s fight for independence; the remarkable French “people’s poet” Pierre Beranger makes his entrance; virtuoso violinist Niccolo Paganini takes center stage later in Liszt’s life; the indefatigable French composer Hector Berlioz and the domineering Richard Wagner assume their roles in this musical drama; and finally two of Poland’s premier violinists, Karol Lipinski and Henryk Wieniawski, stand side by side with Russian pianist Anton Rubinstein, as the story of Liszt’s influence reaches across national boundaries and time itself to make its presence felt.
