Book Synopsis Histories of Heinrich Schütz by : Bettina Varwig
Download or read book Histories of Heinrich Schütz written by Bettina Varwig and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2011-11-03 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bettina Varwig places the music of the celebrated Dresden composer Heinrich Schütz in a richly detailed tapestry of cultural, political, religious and intellectual contexts. Four key events in Schütz's career - the 1617 Reformation centenary, the performance of his Dafne in 1627, the 1636 funeral composition Musikalische Exequien and the publication of his motet collection Geistliche Chormusik (1648) - are used to explore his music's resonances with broader historical themes, including the effects of the Thirty Years' War, contemporary meanings of classical mythology, Lutheran attitudes to death and the afterlife as well as shifting conceptions of time and history in light of early modern scientific advances. These original seventeenth-century circumstances are treated in counterpoint with Schütz's fascinating later reinvention in nineteenth- and twentieth-century German musical culture, providing a new kind of musicological writing that interweaves layers of historical inquiry from the seventeenth century to the present day.
Book Synopsis The Voices of Wittgenstein by : Ludwig Waismann
Download or read book The Voices of Wittgenstein written by Ludwig Waismann and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2003 with total page 609 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Voices of Wittgenstein brings together for the first time in both the original German and English translation over one hundred short essays in philosophical logic and the philosophy of mind of historical importance to understanding Wittgenstein's philosophical thought and development in the 1930s. It is the only substantial corpus of Wittgenstein's work that has remained relatively unknown and unavailable until now. Transcribed from the papers of Friedrich Waismann and dating from 1932-1935, the majority are highly important dictations by Wittgenstein to Waismann. The volume also includes texts of redrafted material by Waismann closely based on the dictations." --Book Jacket.

Book Synopsis The Creative Process in Music from Mozart to Kurtag by : William Kinderman
Download or read book The Creative Process in Music from Mozart to Kurtag written by William Kinderman and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2012-09-16 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Great music arouses wonder: how did the composer create such an original work of art? What was the artist's inspiration, and how did that idea become a reality? Cultural products inevitably arise from a context, a submerged landscape that is often not easily accessible. To bring such things to light, studies of the creative process find their cutting edge by probing beyond the surface, opening new perspectives on the apparently familiar. In this intriguing study, William Kinderman opens the door to the composer's workshop, investigating not just the final outcome but the process of creative endeavor in music. Focusing on the stages of composition, Kinderman maintains that the most rigorous basis for the study of artistic creativity comes not from anecdotal or autobiographical reports, but from original handwritten sketches, drafts, revised manuscripts, and corrected proof sheets. He explores works of major composers from the eighteenth century to the present, from Mozart's piano music and Beethoven's Piano Trio in F to Kurtág's Kafka Fragments and Hommage à R. Sch. Other chapters examine Robert Schumann's Fantasie in C, Mahler's Fifth Symphony, and Bartók's Dance Suite. Kinderman's analysis takes the form of "genetic criticism," tracing the genesis of these cultural works, exploring their aesthetic meaning, and mapping the continuity of a central European tradition that has displayed remarkable vitality for over two centuries, as accumulated legacies assumed importance for later generations. Revealing the diversity of sources, rejected passages and movements, fragmentary unfinished works, and aborted projects that were absorbed into finished compositions, The Creative Process in Music from Mozart to Kurtág illustrates the wealth of insight that can be gained through studying the creative process.
Book Synopsis Serial Music, Serial Aesthetics by : M. J. Grant
Download or read book Serial Music, Serial Aesthetics written by M. J. Grant and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2005-06-08 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Serial music was one of the most important aesthetic movements to emerge in post-war Europe, but its uncompromising music and modernist aesthetic has often been misunderstood. This book focuses on the controversial journal die Reihe, whose major contributors included Stockhausen, Eimert, Pousseur, Dieter Schnebel and G. M. Koenig, and discusses it in connection with many lesser-known sources in German musicology. It traces serialism's debt to the theories of Klee and Mondrian, and its relationship to developments in concrete art, modern poetry and the information aesthetics and semiotics of Max Bense and Umberto Eco. M. J. Grant sketches an aesthetic theory of serialism as experimental music, arguing that serial theory's embrace of both rigorous intellectualism and aleatoric processes is not, as many have suggested, a paradox, but the key to serial thought and to its relevance for contemporary theory.

Book Synopsis Perspectives on German Popular Music by : Michael Ahlers
Download or read book Perspectives on German Popular Music written by Michael Ahlers and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2016-11-25 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, native popular musicologists focus on their own popular music cultures from Germany, Austria and Switzerland for the first time: from subcultural to mainstream phenomena; from the 1950s to contemporary acts. Starting with an introduction and two chapters on the histories of German popular music and its study, the volume then concentrates on focused, detailed and yet concise close readings from different perspectives (including particular historical East and West German perspectives), mostly focusing on the music and its protagonists. Moreover, these analyses deal with very original specific genres such as Schlager and Krautrock as well as transcultural genres such as Punk or Hip Hop. There are additional chapters on characteristically German developments within music media, journalism and the music industry. The book will contribute to a better understanding of German, Austrian and Swiss popular music, and will interconnect international and especially Anglo-American studies with German approaches. The book, as a consequence, will show close connections between global and local popular music cultures and diverse traditions of study.
Book Synopsis Key Texts of Johann Wilhelm Ritter (1776-1810) on the Science and Art of Nature by : Jocelyn Holland
Download or read book Key Texts of Johann Wilhelm Ritter (1776-1810) on the Science and Art of Nature written by Jocelyn Holland and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2010-05-31 with total page 727 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Johann Wilhelm Ritter (1776-1810) was an influential scientist of the Romantic era, acquainted with the greatest minds of his day. He made significant contributions in the fields of chemistry and galvanism, but also tested the boundaries of the sciences and the arts through a speculative thinking which placed human intellectual activity within far-reaching historical narratives. Until now, Ritter’s work has remained largely unknown to an Anglophone audience. For the first time, this bilingual edition offers English translations of Ritter's work and explanatory essays of three texts - including the complete fragment project - which testify to the confluence of the scientific and aesthetic inquiry around 1800.

Book Synopsis Essays on Literature and Music (1967-2004) by : Steven Paul Scher
Download or read book Essays on Literature and Music (1967-2004) written by Steven Paul Scher and published by Rodopi. This book was released on 2004 with total page 552 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present volume meets a frequently expressed demand as it is the first collection of all the relevant essays and articles which Steven Paul Scher has written on Literature and Music over a period of almost forty years in the field of Word and Music Studies. Scher, The Daniel Webster Professor of German and Comparative Literature at Dartmouth College, Hanover, NH, USA, is one of the founding fathers of Word and Music Studies and a leading authority in what is in the meantime a well-established intermedial field. He has published very widely in a variety of journals and collections of essays, which until now have not always been easy to lay one's hands on. His work covers a wide range of subjects and comprises theoretical, methodological and historical studies, which include discussions of Ferruccio Busoni, Thomas Mann, Bertolt Brecht, Judith Weir, the Talking Heads and many others and which pay special attention to E. T. A. Hoffmann and German Romanticism. The range and depth of these studies have made him the 'mastermind' of Word and Music Studies who has defined the basic aims and objectives of the discipline. This volume is of interest to literary scholars and musicologists as well as comparatists and all those concerned about the rapidly expanding field of Intermedia Studies.
Book Synopsis Weltsprache Musik by : Hans-Georg Nicklaus
Download or read book Weltsprache Musik written by Hans-Georg Nicklaus and published by Brill Fink. This book was released on 2015 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Warum stritten Philosophen, Literaten, Musiker und Musiktheoretiker im 18. Jahrhundert heftig um die Frage, ob die Melodie oder die Harmonie in der Musik wichtiger und wesentlicher sei? Wie kam es dazu, dass diese Frage in Frankreich eine gesellschaftspolitische Dimension annahm? Seit der Antike wurde Musik mit göttlichen Prinzipien, religiösen Botschaften, Weltordnung oder Sphärenharmonie in Verbindung gebracht. Auf diese Wiese sollte sie zu einer "universellen" Kunst oder Disziplin erhoben werden. Aber erst als man das Wesen der Musik in der zweiten Hälfte des 18. Jahrhunderts von aller Mathematik und Berechnung trennt und sie als eine ursprüngliche Sprache bezeichnet, eine Sprache, die jeder versteht, über kulturelle, soziale und zeitliche Grenzen hinweg, gelingt es, ihren universellen Anspruch gegenüber allen anderen Künsten nachhaltig zu verbreiten; bis heute ist die Rede von der "Weltsprache Musik".
