Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Book of Musical Knowledge: The History, Technique, and Appreciation of Music, Together With Lives of the Great Composers; For Music-Lovers, Students, and Teachers This book has been planned with a view to placing before the gen eral reader the main facts that will enable him to appreciate music intelligently. One often hears the remark, I'm fond of music, but I don't understand it. The present work has been written with the idea of enabling the non-musician to comprehend the real meaning of the tonal art, and to familiarize himself with the value of the great composers' works, the use of the instruments, the various mu sical forms, and a number of subjects of similar importance. At the same time, certain other technical topics have been in cluded. While these have been presented in such a way as to be un derstood by the non-musician, they have been given with sufficient thoroughness to make the work useful also as a textbook. It is there fore fitted to the needs of students and teachers, as well as amateurs. An effort has been made to condense the chief points of a general musical education into a single volume. While this book should prove of interest to the average reader, a course of study has been added, which will make it suitable for use in high schools or colleges also, or in any institution that aims to give a course in the under standing of music.

Book excerpt: In Musicologia--meaning "musical reasoning" as distinct from a mere love of music--author and composer Robin Maconie takes aim against the fashionable misconception that music is empty of meaning, or "auditory cheesecake." Fresh and penetrating insights draw attention to the influence of musical analogy in the history of science and philosophy from ancient Greece to modern times. Since music has always existed, it is an expression of human consciousness. The discoveries of Pythagoras, Zeno, Kepler, Newton, and Einstein would not have been possible without a tradition of musical acoustics. The story of Musicologia unfolds in thirty-one chapters from primordial considerations of silence, communication, selfhood, balance, and motion to focus on more recent and specific issues of chaos, order, relativity, and artificial intelligence, showing that even the most controversial aspects of modern art music form part of a wider endeavor to engage with universal propositions of science and philosophy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In Sound Authorities, Edward J. Gillin shows how experiences of music and sound played a crucial role in nineteenth-century scientific inquiry in Britain. Where other studies have focused on vision in Victorian England, Gillin focuses on hearing and aurality, making the claim that the development of the natural sciences in Britain in this era cannot be understood without attending to how the study of sound and music contributed to the fashioning of new scientific knowledge. Gillin's book is about how scientific practitioners attempted to fashion themselves as authorities on sonorous phenomena, coming into conflict with traditional musical elites as well as religious bodies. Gillin pays attention to not only musical sound but also the phenomenon of sound in non-musical contexts, specifically, the cacophony of British industrialization, and he analyzes the debates between figures from disparate fields over the proper account of musical experience. Gillin's story begins with the place of acoustics in early nineteenth-century London, examining scientific exhibitions, lectures, and spectacles, as well as workshops, laboratories, and showrooms. He goes on to explore how mathematicians mobilized sound in their understanding of natural laws and their vision of a harmonious order, as well as the convergence of aesthetic and scientific approaches to pitch standardization. In closing, Gillin delves into the era's religious and metaphysical debates over the place of music (and humanity) in nature, the relationship between music and the divine, and the tension between religious/spiritualist understandings of sound and scientific/materialist ones"--

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Essentials of Musical Knowledge The criticism offered on all works in the English language dealing with musical terms is the lack of conciseness or a meaningless definintion. Take the character called a "note". The word is incorrectly used in every music journal and in dictionaries musical and otherwise. Where "tone" is meant or a "key" on the piano the word "note" is used - musicians of reputation as well as the uncultured teacher of music, use expressions that are incorrect. The following is clipped from a widely circulated journal and it was written by a musical authority. "Place the hand on the key-board and push down five white notes." This is an illustration of the misuse of musical terms. This work is a hand-book for all who study music but more especially for those preparing for National and State Association examinations. College and Conservatory pupils will find it an aid in their work. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does it mean to hear scientifically? What does it mean to see musically? This volume uncovers a new side to the long nineteenth century in London, a hidden history in which virtuosic musical entertainment and scientific discovery intersected in remarkable ways. Sound Knowledge examines how scientific truth was accrued by means of visual and aural experience, and, in turn, how musical knowledge was located in relation to empirical scientific practice. James Q. Davies and Ellen Lockhart gather work by leading scholars to explore a crucial sixty-year period, beginning with Charles Burney’s ambitious General History of Music, a four-volume study of music around the globe, and extending to the Great Exhibition of 1851, where musical instruments were assembled alongside the technologies of science and industry in the immense glass-encased collections of the Crystal Palace. Importantly, as the contributions show, both the power of science and the power of music relied on performance, spectacle, and experiment. Ultimately, this volume sets the stage for a new picture of modern disciplinarity, shining light on an era before the division of aural and visual knowledge.
