Book Synopsis The Lambach Thematic Catalogue (1768). by : Anton Obermayr
Download or read book The Lambach Thematic Catalogue (1768). written by Anton Obermayr and published by Hillsdale, NY : Pendragon Press. This book was released on 2001 with total page 546 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Benedictine Abbey of Lambach in Upper Austria boasts a long and distinguished history as a center of musical life in Central Europe. The monastery's music tradition flourished most actively and significantly in the 18th century, but especially during the reign (1746 to 1794)of Abbot Amandus Schickmayr. Schickmayr, described by one contemporary as excessivus amator musicae, was an astute patron who maintained close personal ties with leading musicians of the day-in particular, the Mozarts, father and son, and Michael Haydn-as well as an avid collector who no doubt encouraged the acquisition of the greater number of works among the holdings of the abbey's music archive today.The collection at Lambach became in time, and remains to the present day, one of the most extensive repositories of music manuscripts at any of the Austrian monasteries. Its holdings are understandably rich in sacred, theatrical and symphonic works by Michael Haydn, the two Mozarts and others in the Salzburg Kapelle.Equally important, however, are its manuscripts of early symphonies by Joseph Haydn and ofworks in various instrumental genres by Carl Ditters von Dittersdorf; Carlos d'Ordonez, AntonNeumann, Georg Christoph Wagenseil and Johann Baptist Wanhal.In 1768, abbey organist Anton Obermayr compied a351-page inventory of the music manuscripts on hand at Lambach in that year. The importance of Obermayr's catalog rests in its provision of terminus post quem dating for more than1300 works which are cited not only with bass incipit and particulars of scoring, but in nearly all cases also with composers' names. Our edition presents the Lambach thematic catalog in facsimile, with annotations identifying its entries with melody incipits where possible and indicating (1 whether the corresponding music manuscript is extant or missing; and (2 if extant, describing the source in full-its present-day shelf number whether compete or incomplete, papera nd water-marks, and identification of copyists by name or by internally coherent system (i.e., Copyist 39). An appendix provides similar bibliographical citations for more than 1000 additional manuscripts in the music archive at Lambach but which came to the collection after the thematic catalog had been drawn up

Book Synopsis Schubert, Müller, and Die Schöne Müllerin by : Susan Youens
Download or read book Schubert, Müller, and Die Schöne Müllerin written by Susan Youens and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1997-02-06 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The collaboration of Schubert and the poet Wilhelm Müller produced some of the best loved of nineteenth-century lieder - in particular the song cycle Die schöne Müllerin. Professor Youens shows us how this archetypal tale of love and rejection, which has its origins in medieval romance, Minnesong and popular German legend, is reflected in the poet's own experience, the realms of art and life intertwining. Professor Youens considers other poets' explorations of the theme of a miller maid and her suitors, and looks at other musical settings of Müller's mill poems. But above all she examines Müller's permutation of the literary legends as an exploration of erotic obsession, delusion, frenzy, disillusionment and death and the way in which Schubert crucially altered Müller's vision when the poetic cycle became a musical text.

Book Synopsis A History of the Trombone by : David M. Guion
Download or read book A History of the Trombone written by David M. Guion and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2010-06-21 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A History of the Trombone, the first title in the new series American Wind Band, is a comprehensive account of the development of the trombone from its initial form as a 14th-century Medieval trumpet to its alterations in the 15th century; from its marginalized use in a particular Renaissance ensemble to its acceptance in various kinds of artistic and popular music in the 19th and 20th centuries. David M. Guion accesses new and important primary source materials to present the full sweep of the instrument's history, placing particular emphasis on the people who played the instrument, the music they performed, and the relevant cultural contexts. After a general overview, the material is presented in two main sections: the first traces the development of the trombone itself and examines the literature written about it, and the second investigates the history of performance on the instrument—the ensembles it participated in, the occasions in which it took part, the people who played it, and the social, intellectual, political, economic, and technological forces that impinged on that history. Guion analyzes the trombone's place in countries all over the world and in many styles of music, such as art, opera, popular, and world music. An appendix of transcriptions of selected primary source documents, including translations, and a comprehensive bibliography round out this important reference. Fully illustrated with more than 80 images, A History of the Trombone appeals not just to trombonists but to students, scholars, and fans of all musical instruments.
Book Synopsis Valentin Haussmann (1565/70-ca. 1614) by : Robert Burgess Lynn
Download or read book Valentin Haussmann (1565/70-ca. 1614) written by Robert Burgess Lynn and published by Stuyvesant, NY : Pendragon Press. This book was released on 1997 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Valentin Haussmann was a highly regarded composer in his time whose works had great popular appeal and were frequently reprinted, anthologized, and copied in lute or keyboard arrangements. His extensive travels and pioneering spirit led him to search out interesting repertories, such as Italian villanellas, canzonettas, and balletti which he published with his own German texts, as well as Polish dances which he heard in East Prussia. The main body of this catalogue is organized by musical sources, expanded to include manuscript sources, lost works, works in seventeenth-century collections, works edited by Haussmann with his own German texts, modern manuscript copies, and works by other composers using Haussmann's melodies or texts. Many sources, listed as lost in recent bibliographies, have been located and are included here. Title pages, dedications, laudatory poems, and letters are transcribed in full, and Cantus incipits are provided in musical notation. Additional sections include an Index of First Lines, two indexes of Cantus incipits (one indicating pitches and rhythms, the other interval progression), a listing of works in modern editions, and an extensive bibliography. This catalogue will be a basic research tool for anyone investigating the history of German music at the beginning of the seventeenth century.

Book Synopsis Ancient Drama in Music for the Modern Stage by : Peter Brown
Download or read book Ancient Drama in Music for the Modern Stage written by Peter Brown and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2010-09-02 with total page 1755 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Opera was invented at the end of the sixteenth century in imitation of the supposed style of delivery of ancient Greek tragedy, and, since then, operas based on Greek drama have been among the most important in the repertoire. This collection of essays by leading authorities in the fields of Classics, Musicology, Dance Studies, English Literature, Modern Languages, and Theatre Studies provides an exceptionally wide-ranging and detailed overview of the relationship between the two genres. Since tragedies have played a much larger part than comedies in this branch of operatic history, the volume mostly concentrates on the tragic repertoire, but a chapter on musical versions of Aristophanes' Lysistrata is included, as well as discussions of incidental music, a very important part of the musical reception of ancient drama, from Andrea Gabrieli in 1585 to Harrison Birtwistle and Judith Weir in the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries.
