Provides an understanding and appreciation of Georg von Albrecht's musical art, and also links his compositional approach to historical and theoretical context. In this study, the significance lies in the discovery of a missing historical link in the evolution of principles that range from the pentatonic formations and modalities of folk music.
Bach and Tuning is strictly concerned with the identification of a historically accurate tuning paradigm that applies to the great majority of Johann Sebastian Bach's music. This fresh narrative reveals the great composer's intentions regarding intonation. A new intimate dimension of expression is the result.
The book investigates the spectrum of meaning inherent in six orchestral works by Leos Janacek. It codifies his compositional style, demonstrating its development from features of Moravian folk song. The analyses investigate the affective and programmatic association of the works, and employ semiologic code techniques to unveil extramusical meaning.
The book explores cellular pivots as a new means of progression, functional tonality having disappeared in much of contemporary music. Bela Bartok serves as a kind of father figure to Chen Yi and George Crumb - stylistically, technically, and even philosophically. These affinities provide insight into universal principles of the post-tonal era.
Bartok's 1907 Violin Concerto, expressing his love for Stefi Geyer, sounds various allusions to Wagner's paean to unrequited love. The work presents a musical crossroads contrasting Stefi's ideal world and peasant realism.
This enhanced edition of the life and works of the eclectic Breton polymath Jean Cras sustains his renaissance as one of France's most remarkable composers, scientists, inventors, admirals and ecumenists.
