Book Synopsis Historical Dictionary of Music of the Classical Period by : Bertil van Boer
Download or read book Historical Dictionary of Music of the Classical Period written by Bertil van Boer and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2012-04-05 with total page 665 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When we speak of “classical music” it often refers rather loosely to serious “art” music but at the core is really the music of the classical period running from about 1730 to 1800, give or take. This was truly one of the most glorious periods for both composition and performance and it is this classical music which is still at the core of today’s repertoire. Obvious names connected with this period are Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven, but there were many more still reasonably well known like Gluck and C.P.E Bach, and dozens more who are regrettably little known today. This Historical Dictionary of Music of the Classical Period includes not only these composers, but also eminent conductors and performers, patrons, and publishers. There are also dictionary entries on major centers of music-making, typical instruments, important technical terms, and emerging musical forms, including the symphony and opera. Indeed, with a 1,000 cross-referenced entries, there is information on most matters of interest. This is prefaced by an extensive chronology, tracing the course of this period from year to year, and an introduction taking a careful look at the period as a whole. Finally, there is a substantial bibliography. Surely, this is a book which will appeal not only to students and researchers but all music-lovers.

Book Synopsis Opera in Seventeenth-Century Venice by : Ellen Rosand
Download or read book Opera in Seventeenth-Century Venice written by Ellen Rosand and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2007-10-09 with total page 712 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In this elegantly constructed study of the early decades of public opera, the conflicts and cooperation of poets, composers, managers, designers, and singers—producing the art form that was soon to sweep the world and that has been dominant ever since—are revealed in their first freshness."—Andrew Porter "This will be a standard work on the subject of the rise of Venetian opera for decades. Rosand has provided a decisive contribution to the reshaping of the entire subject. . . . She offers a profoundly new view of baroque opera based on a solid documentary and historical-critical foundation. The treatment of the artistic self-consciousness and professional activities of the librettists, impresarios, singers, and composers is exemplary, as is the examination of their reciprocal relations. This work will have a positive effect not only on studies of 17th-century, but on the history of opera in general."—Lorenzo Bianconi
Book Synopsis Music, Dance and Franco-Italian Cultural Exchange, C.1700 by : Don Fader
Download or read book Music, Dance and Franco-Italian Cultural Exchange, C.1700 written by Don Fader and published by Boydell & Brewer. This book was released on 2021 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study stems from discoveries in a trove of documents belonging to Charles-Henri de Lorraine, prince de Vaudâemont, who served as governor of Milan under the Spanish crown from 1698 to 1706. These documents, together with a mass of other sources - letters, diaries, treatises, libretti, scores - offer a vivid new picture of musical life in Paris and Milan as well as exchanges between France and Italy. The book is both a patronage study and an examination of the contributions by - and the difficulties facing - musicians and dancers who worked across national and cultural boundaries. Music, Dance, and Franco-Italian Cultural Exchange, c.1700 follows the careers of the prince and the French violinist and composer Michel Pignolet de Montâeclair. In the context of a renewed fascination with Italian music in the 1690s, Montâeclair made a name for himself in Paris as a pedagogue and composer who understood both national styles and blended them in a way that was successful on French terms. Vaudâemont hired Montâeclair to direct a French violin band and to compose dance music for a series of new operas that observers declared "the best in Italy" but are virtually unknown today. These productions involved collaborations among a mixed company of French and Italian musicians, dancers, composers, and librettists modeled on the practice of Turinese court operas. The book is an account of the contributions of these figures to the cultural life of Paris, Milan, and other northern Italian states, and to the creative mixing of musical styles, operatic conventions, and dance technique in France and Italy through the 1720s and beyond.
Book Synopsis Dante the Lyric and Ethical Poet by : Zygmunt G. Bara'nski
Download or read book Dante the Lyric and Ethical Poet written by Zygmunt G. Bara'nski and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-12-02 with total page 481 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book presents the proceedings of the fifth meeting of the International Dante Seminar. As with previous volumes, the proceedings also include a carefully edited account of the extensive discussions which followed the presentations. The papers, given by some of the leading international scholars of the poet - from Italy, the UK and the USA - address four major topics of particular concern to present-day Dante studies: Dante as a lyric poet; Dante as an ethical poet; Dante and the Eclogues; and Dante in nineteenth-century Britain. These topics reflect both areas which are currently the subject of heated critical debate (several editions of the lyric poems are in preparation, and the ethical dimension of Dantes works is very much under discussion) and areas which are long overdue a reassessment (Dantes remarkable revival of Latin pastoral poetry, and the extraordinary British contribution to Dante studies in the nineteenth century). As this set of conference proceedings makes clear, in Dante and in his legacy, ethics and poetry are inseparable. The contributors include Paola Allegretti, Michael Caesar, Paolo Falzone, Manuele Gragnolati, Claudio Giunta, Claire Honess, Robin Kirkpatrick, John Lindon, Lino Pertile, Justin Steinberg, Claudia Villa, and Diego Zancani."

Book Synopsis Courts and Courtiers in Renaissance Northern Italy by : Stephen Kolsky
Download or read book Courts and Courtiers in Renaissance Northern Italy written by Stephen Kolsky and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-05-31 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The extraordinary cultural Renaissance in the northern Italian courts of the late 15th and early 16th centuries is the subject of this volume. It starts with Baldessar Castiglione's Book of the Courtier (1528) which encapsulates this sense of renewal: his experiences at court and their subsequent rewriting form the backbone of the work. The author then addresses questions of biography, gender, genre, and the varied roles of the courtier, expanding the perspective of Castiglione's text to include the lives and writings of other courtiers and patrons. What was it like to be a courtier? What were the problems associated with such a lifestyle? The importance of women in court circles is also highlighted in studies of one of the most notable of female patrons Isabella d'Este (1474-1539) and of the theoretical developments in writing about gender, stimulated by such women. Stephen Kolsky's analysis of both well-known and comparatively obscure texts brings out the diversity of practices that constituted court society and their centrality to our understanding of the Renaissance.
Book Synopsis Song and sonnets. Canzoni e sonetti by : John Donne
Download or read book Song and sonnets. Canzoni e sonetti written by John Donne and published by Luigi Pellegrini Editore. This book was released on 2019-03-27 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Donne, uno dei massimi poeti inglesi, visse tra la seconda metà del XVI secolo e la prima metà del XVII secolo: epoca di grandi fermenti e di intensi scambi. È un poeta che esprime, meglio di tanti altri, le tensioni della sua età e l’esigenza di allungare lo sguardo sulla vita, la cultura e la letteratura del Continente europeo, in particolare, dell’Italia, della Francia e della Spagna, paesi visitati dal poeta. John Donne, che non aveva reciso del tutto le radici medioevali, avvertì, inevitabilmente, gli effetti dell’impatto col pensiero scientifico e critico della nuova cultura rinascimentale, profondamente segnata dal naturalismo telesiano, dal De Revolutionibus Orbium coelestium (1543), in cui Niccolò Copernico propone il sistema eliocentrico, in opposizione a quello geocentrico di Tolomeo e, nel campo della ricerca filosofica, dall’empirismo, teorizzato da Francis Bacon nel suo Novum Organum del 1621, che afferma l’importanza, ai fini della conoscenza, della percezione sensoriale, vagliate dalla critica dell’intelletto. Punto terminale di tale processo è il razionalismo di Descartes (XVII secolo), che afferma la funzione del pensiero come attività. zIl XVII secolo, in cui forti sono ancora la coscienza e la cultura medievali, è un periodo nevralgico per la storia della civiltà inglese: il passaggio all’età moderna non è più procrastinabile. Nel campo della poesia è, appunto, John Donne che rompe, definitivamente, gli argini, accostando la Fede a certe verità obiettive, ad esempio, all’amore. Tale scelta fa emergere il conflitto tra passione e ragione, certamente, motivo di turbamento della coscienza dell’individuo; ma, d’altro canto, come si fa a pensare alla vita, prescindendo dall’amore e dalla passione, che sono verità connaturali all’essere? E John Donne, esaltando e valorizzando quest’ultima connotazione, risolve il dissidio a suo modo e, perciò, intreccia i temi dello spirito e dei sensi, e lo fa con assoluta naturalezza e senza reticenze. Lo spirito del Medioevo non si è, però, ancora spento, e il poeta si rende conto che certe questioni possono toccare la suscettibilità dell’individuo e, perciò, egli affronta tali argomenti con sincerità e chiarezza, ma da poeta autentico ed esperto, ricorre, con grande perizia, ad una pedagogia molto efficace, che non disdegna l’uso di strumenti di notevole effetto e suggestione, consolidati, ormai, nella poesia, come l’emblematismo, la similitudine, l’allegoria, la metafora. E l’esito è, in molti casi, straordinario, tale da garantire a John Donne un posto di assoluto preminenza nella letteratura non solo inglese.
