Download or read book Debussy written by Stephen Walsh and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2018-10-23 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most revered composers of the twentieth century, Claude Debussy (1862–1918) achieved the unheard of: he reinvented the language of music without alienating the majority of music lovers. Debussy drove French music into entirely new regions of beauty and excitement at a time when old traditions threatened to stifle it. Yet despite his profound influence on French culture, Debussy’s own life was complicated and often troubled by struggles over money, women, and ill health. Here, Stephen Walsh, acclaimed author of Stravinsky, chronicles both the composer himself and the unique moment in European history that bore him. Walsh’s engagingly original approach is to enrich a lively biography with analyses of Debussy’s music: from his first daring breaks with the rules as a Conservatoire student to his achievements as the greatest French composer of his time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ?? [[ Best known as the author of imaginative short fiction, such as The Fall of the House of Usher and The Cask of Amontillado, and as the author of hauntingly sonorous poems such as The Raven, Edgar Allan Poe was a leading practitioner of the American Gothic and helped popularize the short story as a genre. This reference work assembles in dictionary format a complete and current body of information on Poe's life and work. More than 1900 entries cover all phases of Poe's art and literary criticism, his family relationships, his numerous travels and residences, and the abundance of critical responses to his works. Each entry provides bibliographical information, and the volume concludes with an extensive listing of works for further consideration. ]] ?? Best known for his mysterious and imaginative short fiction, such as The Fall of the House of Usher and The Cask of Amontillado, as well as hauntingly sonorous poems such as The Raven, Edgar Allan Poe has secured a lasting place in the American literary canon. He was one of the first American authors to be given serious attention in Europe, and his works popularized the Gothic, the short story, and detective fiction in America. Poe's works are frequently studied in schools and colleges, but he also retains his appeal as one of America's most demanding popular authors. His works reflect his vast and sometimes arcane erudition, his probing insights into the workings of the mind, his theories of literature and aesthetics, and his interest in science and the supernatural. Through more than 1900 alphabetically arranged entries, this reference book provides complete and current coverage of Poe's life and work. Some entries treat Poe's known reading and his responses to literary contemporaries and international literary figures. Others comment on the impact of various writers and literary traditions on Poe's imagination. Still others address Poe's views on subjects ranging from Shakespeare to mesmerism to phrenology. Each entry is supplemented by a bibliographical note which gives the basis for the entry and suggests sources for further investigation. Each entry for Poe's fiction and poetry contains a critical synopsis, and an extensive bibliography at the end of the volume lists the most important critical and biographical studies of Poe.
Book Synopsis Memoirs of a Piano by : Kyra Petrovskaya Wayne
Download or read book Memoirs of a Piano written by Kyra Petrovskaya Wayne and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2007-09-04 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: MEMOIRS OF A PIANO is a whimsical chronicle of the vicissitudes of fortune of a French piano during more than a century of historical upheavals. In its own voice Piano regales us with many stories, thus joining some of its famous predecessors such as Voltaire’s bed or Jonathan Swift’s tub, or even Gogol’s nose and Kafka’s cockroach, who all talked! And what stories piano tells! It tells us how it had almost ended up on the barricades during the French Commune. It describes Franz Liszt who had used it at a concert. It meets young prodigy Claude Debussy and travels with him to Russia where it becomes a house piano of the wealthy patroness of Tchaikovsky. Fate interferes with piano’s happy collaboration with Debussy, sending the young man back to France to become eventually world famous composer and the founder of the Impressionism, while piano becomes a witness to the mutiny on the battleship Potemkin on the Black Sea in 1905. Piano’s adventures continue with the dramatic escape from the Red Revolution aboard the yacht Renaissance belonging to a Russian Count. Safe in Turkey, the Count sells the yacht along with the piano to an eccentric American millionaire who renames the boat and sails her among the Greek Islands, buying antiquities. The yacht and the piano barely survive vicious Atlantic storms on their way to New Orleans, where the ruined piano is discarded and abandoned on the beach. It is rescued by a group of black musicians, who repair it and move it to a club where it has to learn the new music- Jazz! The saga of the French piano continues in America, eventually leading to piano’s vainglorious participation in the cruelest sport of the Great Depression-Marathon Dancing. The piano survives it all. Finally, when it ends up among the props at the MGM Movie Studio, and is sold at the famous MGM auction in 1970, piano is an old and wise instrument, which views its history with a touch of nostalgia. It still wants to serve Apollo, the god of light and music, but it has a secret desire to work with young musicians on the threshold of their fame, as it did once with Debussy, at the start of his life. And at last, the great piano’s desire is fulfilled.
