Its haunting, timeless presence endures in jazz and film music, as well as orchestral settings, to this day. In this welcome addition to the Yale Musical Instrument Series, Renato Meucci and Gabriele Rocchetti trace the origins of the modern horn in all its variety. From its emergence in Turin and its development of political and diplomatic functions across European courts, to the revolutionary invention of valves, the horn has presented in innumerable guises and forms.

Book Synopsis Music of the Soviet Era: 1917-1991 by : Levon Hakobian
Download or read book Music of the Soviet Era: 1917-1991 written by Levon Hakobian and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-11-25 with total page 613 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is a comprehensive and detailed survey of music and musical life of the entire Soviet era, from 1917 to 1991, which takes into account the extensive body of scholarly literature in Russian and other major European languages. In this considerably updated and revised edition of his 1998 publication, Hakobian traces the strikingly dramatic development of the music created by outstanding and less well-known, ‘modernist’ and ‘conservative’, ‘nationalist’ and ‘cosmopolitan’ composers of the Soviet era. The book’s three parts explore, respectively, the musical trends of the 1920s, music and musical life under Stalin, and the so-called ’Bronze Age’ of Soviet music after Stalin’s death. Music of the Soviet Era: 1917–1991 considers the privileged position of music in the USSR in comparison to the written and visual arts. Through his examination of the history of the arts in the Soviet state, Hakobian’s work celebrates the human spirit’s wonderful capacity to derive advantage even from the most inauspicious conditions.

Download or read book Dennis Brain written by Stephen Gamble and published by University of North Texas Press. This book was released on 2011 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The British horn player Dennis Brain (1921-1957) is commonly described by such statements as "the greatest horn player of the 20th Century," "a genius," and "a legend." He was both a prodigy and popularizer, famously performing a concerto on a garden hose in perfect pitch. On his usual concert instrument his tone was of unsurpassed beauty and clarity, complemented by a flawless technique. The recordings he made with Herbert von Karajan of Mozart's horn concerti are considered the definitive interpretations. Brain enlisted in the English armed forces during World War II for seven years, joining the National Symphony Orchestra in wartime in 1942. After the war he filled the principal horn positions in both the Philharmonia and Royal Philharmonic Orchestras. He later formed his own wind quintet and began conducting. Composers including Benjamin Britten and Paul Hindemith lined up to write music for him. Even fifty years after his tragic death at the age of 36 in an auto accident in 1957, Peter Maxwell Davies was commissioned to write a piece in his honor. Stephen Gamble and William Lynch have conducted numerous interviews with family, friends, and colleagues and uncovered information in the BBC archives and other lesser known sources about recordings that were previously unknown. This volume describes Brain's life and analyzes in depth his musical career. Its appendices of information on performances will appeal to music historians, and its details on Brain's instruments and equipment will be useful to horn players.

Book Synopsis The Creative Hornist by : Jeffrey Agrell
Download or read book The Creative Hornist written by Jeffrey Agrell and published by . This book was released on 2017-09-20 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Conventional horn wisdom has always been that one simply doesn't go exploring with the horn. It simply isn't done. You play the ink. Basta! Other instruments - say, instruments with a jazz tradition - are allowed off the leash, but horn? Uh-uh, no way, no how. It's too difficult. It's dumb. It's dangerous (you might make a mistake!). It's scary. It's not the norm. It's embarrassing. You're too young. You're too old. You haven't had the proper training. You don't have time. It's against the rules/tradition/laws of man and nature. Why bother? There's nothing out that there that the experts haven't already discovered. What are you going to play, anyway? If you try to make something up, it will sound mistake-ridden and bad. Who do you think you are? Remember what happened to Icarus and his winged experiments! Be sensible! Just. Don't.The arguments, brimming propriety and good sense, go on and on. They are, in fact, built in to our unconscious fundamental understanding of our definition of horn playing, so that the mere idea of 'exploring' with the horn almost never occurs to us, and any flicker of desire to do so is immediately rejected - if it ever surfaces at all. The Creative Hornist is a collection of countervailing and iconoclastic essays and information to persuade you to create your own music and discover your own musical voice. Don't wait any longer. Start now - today! - enjoying the other half of music and musicianship that has been missing.

Since audition lists almost always include a few "non-standard" works, the well-versed student will also want to have employed the more comprehensive collections of excerpts in the course of his/her general preparation for an orchestral career.

Book Synopsis THE BOOK OF REVELATION FROM ALPHA TO OMEGA by : Roy Martin

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Roy Martin is a college graduate with thirty-one years of service as an employee with the United States Government, but this is obviously not what qualifies him to write the Book of Revelation From Alpha to Omega. What would qualify someone to write about the very book in the Bible that many people shun, even preachers? The only requirement is that God calls for any task is at God's discretion. He doesn't have anyone he depends on to help him make his selections. Roy was leading a Bible study group in his church when someone said they would like to study the book of Revelation. Roy agreed to continue to lead the study group. He did in-depth research and kept detailed notes of what he found. After about six study sessions, Roy said that God spoke these distinctive words to him, "I want you to put this in a book." Shortly after this, God spoke to him again and said, " e title of this book shall be ¬ e Book of Revelation From Alpha to Omega." What a title! Whenever the writing became very difficult, Roy would remember the title, and it would inspire him to press on.

Book excerpt: This volume investigates the neglected topic of mental action, and shows its importance for the metaphysics, epistemology, and phenomenology of mind. Twelve specially written essays address such questions as the following: Which phenomena should we count as mental actions — imagining, remembering, judging, for instance? How should we explain our knowledge of our mental actions, and what light does that throw on self-knowledge in general? What contributions do mental actions make to our consciousness? What is the relationship between the voluntary and the active, in the mental sphere? What are the similarities and differences between mental and physical action, and what can we learn about each from the other?
