Book Synopsis The Beethoven Sonatas and the Creative Experience by : Kenneth Drake
Download or read book The Beethoven Sonatas and the Creative Experience written by Kenneth Drake and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 1994-04-22 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The definitive study of Beethoven’s piano sonatas is “remarkable as an insider’s account of the works in an individual perspective.” (European Music Teacher) In “one of the most interesting, useful and even exciting books on the process of musical creation” (American Music Teacher), Kenneth O. Drake groups the Beethoven piano sonatas according to their musical qualities, rather than their chronology. He explores the interpretive implications of rhythm, dynamics, slurs, harmonic effects, and melodic development and identifies specific measures where Beethoven skillfully employs these compositional devices. An interpreter searching for meaning, Drake begins with Beethoven’s expressive treatment of the keyboard—the variations of touch, articulation, line, color, use of silence, and the pacing of musical ideas. He then analyzes individual sonatas, exploring motivic development, philosophic overtones, and technical demands. Hundreds of musical examples illustrate this exploration of emotional and interpretive implications of “the 32.” Here musicians are encouraged to exercise intuition and independence of thought, complementing their performance skills with logical conclusions about ideas and relationships within the score.

Featuring many detailed drawings and access to over 60 video examples on the companion website, Baton Basics guides conductors away from simply marking beat patterns, and towards a nuanced and phrased musicality that can be communicated to a group of musicians. Baton Basics is a key foundational text for the student and experienced conductor alike, and is a must read for anyone interested in improving and expanding their vocabulary of conducting gestures.

Book Synopsis Beethoven's Symphonies by : John Bell Young
Download or read book Beethoven's Symphonies written by John Bell Young and published by Hal Leonard Corporation. This book was released on 2008 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ludwig Van Beethoven's nine symphonies stand as towering masterworks at the core of the classical canon. In Beethoven's hands, the symphony expanded dramatically in scope and power in a way that would revolutionise both the form itself and music in general. The impact of Beethoven's nine was such that composers long after him would write their own symphonies in his shadow. In this book, acclaimed Pianist and critic John Bell Young explores each of the nine symphonies, always looking beneath the surface for what makes the music so compelling. He places them in their historical and cultural context, and he describes how the Russian concept of intonatsiia, a way of perceiving relationships "between the notes," can help deepen our appreciation of these pieces. The accompanying CD contains selections from all of the symphonies, each performance conducted by the legendary Wilhelm Furtwangler.
Book Synopsis The Circle and the Diamond by : Roland Trogan, Ph.D.
Download or read book The Circle and the Diamond written by Roland Trogan, Ph.D. and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-10 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the Circle and the Diamond, the author's disaffection with the shortcomings of music analysis leads to the creation of an original contribution to understanding our Western musical heritage. Composer Roland Trogan explicates Susanne Langer's notion that music consists of "patterns of sentience" by extending the notion of "harmonic rhythm" (rate of chordal change) to the analytical parameters of texture, dynamics, tempo, tonality and form. Changes in the rates of each parameter create patterns, and these correspond to existential and phenomenological patterns in human experience, ranging from mental and emotional states to biorhythms and the course of life itself. the author also categorizes music according to three temporal esthetics--circular/durational, chronological and infinite--that lay behind historical styles, in order to explain how music changes in response to new temporal world-views. Novel perspectives on the compositional use of silence, Arnold Schoenberg's impact on 20th-century music, music notation and the nature of inspiration in music will intrigue composers, academicians and students of music. by virtue of its sociological commentaries and nascent phenomenological descriptions, all readers will find the Circle and the Diamond a trove of stimulating and provocative ideas.
