Download or read book Imperfect Harmony written by Stacy Horn and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2013-07-02 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “In this one-of-a-kind celebration of singing with others, I’d call her pitch nearly perfect.”—The Atlantic For Stacy Horn, regardless of what is going on in the world or her life, singing in an amateur choir—the Choral Society of Grace Church in New York—never fails to take her to a place where hope reigns and everything good is possible. She’s not particularly religious, and her voice is not exceptional (so she says), but like the 32.5 million other chorus members throughout this country, singing makes her happy. Horn brings us along as she sings some of the greatest music humanity has ever produced, delves into the dramatic stories of conductors and composers, unearths the fascinating history of group singing, and explores remarkable discoveries from the new science of singing, including all the unexpected health benefits. Imperfect Harmony is the story of one woman who has found joy and strength in the weekly ritual of singing and in the irresistible power of song.
Book Synopsis Bach's Authentic Chorale Harmony - Workbook by : Christopher Mabley
Download or read book Bach's Authentic Chorale Harmony - Workbook written by Christopher Mabley and published by Christopher Mabley. This book was released on 2021-08-28 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Johann Sebastian Bach’s chorale settings have been vital to the teaching of music ever since they were composed, and this comprehensive Course provides a thorough re-appraisal of this inspiring music. In matching HARMONY closely to TEXTURE, it is founded entirely on the composer's own procedures. Each Chapter builds on the work of previous ones, so that the student is taken from the simplest harmonizations of single phrases through to the most complex settings of complete chorale melodies employing the full range of Bach’s harmonic resources. The materials are complemented at every stage by focused exercises using Bach's music as relevant exemplars. This book provides the keen student with practical working insights into the basics of harmony and counterpoint, and these insights can then be adapted and applied to music in other styles and genres. This edition is presented in American English and American musical terminology. It complements the printed edition which uses British English and British musical terminology.

Book Synopsis The Music of Hugh Wood by : Edward Venn
Download or read book The Music of Hugh Wood written by Edward Venn and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Music of Hugh Wood provides the first ever in-depth study of this well-known, yet only briefly documented composer. Over the years, Wood (b. 1932) has produced a sizeable oeuvre that explores the established genres of symphony, concerto, and quartet on the one hand, and songs and choruses on the other. Underpinned by an awareness of recent philosophical, theoretical and analytical concepts, Dr Edward Venn highlights both the technical basis of Wood's music and the expressive force of his work. In doing so, a picture emerges of Wood as an artist of considerable merit and power. The eclectic blend of national and international influences in the music of Hugh Wood combine to create an individual and distinctive musical language all his own. The book provides an overview of Wood's style, focussing on his engagement with modernism and the melodic, rhythmic, harmonic and formal characteristics of his musical language. From here a more detailed consideration of Wood's development as a composer is advanced, in which his technical development is illustrated alongside an exploration of various aspects of musical meaning embodied in his works. In the process, numerous analytical strategies ranging from formalist to narrative structures are utilized, demonstrating the fecundity and expressivity of Wood's music.

Book Synopsis Trends in Music Information Seeking, Behavior, and Retrieval for Creativity by : Kostagiolas, Petros

This book was released on 2016-06-01 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the literature of information science, a number of studies have been carried out attempting to model cognitive, affective, behavioral, and contextual factors associated with human information seeking and retrieval. On the other hand, only a few studies have addressed the exploration of creative thinking in music, focusing on understanding and describing individuals’ information seeking behavior during the creative process. Trends in Music Information Seeking, Behavior, and Retrieval for Creativity connects theoretical concepts in information seeking and behavior to the music creative process. This publication presents new research, case studies, surveys, and theories related to various aspects of information retrieval and the information seeking behavior of diverse scholarly and professional music communities. Music professionals, theorists, researchers, and students will find this publication an essential resource for their professional and research needs.

Book Synopsis Albert Schweitzer's Ethical Vision A Sourcebook by : Predrag Cicovacki
Download or read book Albert Schweitzer's Ethical Vision A Sourcebook written by Predrag Cicovacki and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2009-02-02 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The philosophy of Albert Schweitzer has proved widely influential in modern thinking, especially in the field of ethics. His leading ethical idea can be summarized in the phrase "reverence for life" - namely, that good consists in maintaining and perfecting life, and evil consists in destroying and obstructing life. For Schweitzer, all life is sacred. Ethics thus deals with human attitudes and behavior toward all living beings. Unlike many moral philosophers, Schweitzer argues that knowledge of human nature does not provide a sufficient foundation for any adequate moral theory. That is why he bases his ethics on much broader foundations, articulated in his philosophy of civilization and the philosophy of religion. Schweitzer argues that the material aspect of our civilization has become far more important than its spiritual counterpart. Even organized religion has put itself in the service of politics and economy, thereby losing its vitality and moral authority. Schweitzer's ethics of reverence for life, argues Predrag Cicovacki, offers a viable alternative at a time when traditional ethical theories are found inadequate. Schweitzer's robust and un-dogmatic idealism may offer the best antidote to the prevailing relativism and nihilism of the postmodern epoch. His ethical vision directs us toward a new way of building a more just and more peaceful world. Collecting sixteen of Schweitzer's most effective essays, this volume serves as a compelling introduction to this remarkable thinker and humanist.
