| Chopin: The Man and His
Music: Biography Biography [Book] Dover Publications
James Gibbon Huneker (1857-1921) was a distinguished American newspaper critic, ...(+)
James Gibbon Huneker (1857-1921) was a distinguished American newspaper critic, an essayist, and a prolific author. His writing style is remarkable ? unrestrained, informal, full of brilliant insight ? and this style plus Huneker's wide knowledge of art and literature as well as music has kept his literacy work alive. Chopin: The Man and His Music reflects the intimate, thorough knowledge of Chopin's music that Huneker acquired while studying to be a concert pianist and his unusually keen insight into the character of the great Polish composer whose music he adored. The book is divided into two parts. The first treats Chopin's life ? his youth in Poland, his emigration to Paris, the famous George Sand episode, his sickness and death ? and comments on Chopin as a teacher and as a pianist and performer. The second part discusses the entire body of Chopin's music, piece by piece. Huneker notes his own overall impression of the individual compositions as well as the impressions of Schumann, George Sand, Chopin's biographer Frederick Niecks, many of the great pianists, and others. He directly compares differing editions of Chopin's Études, Preludes, Nocturnes, Mazurkas, Polonaises, Sonatas, and other works edited by von Bülow, Kullak, Riemann, Mikuli, and Godowsky in their detailed treatment of fingering, phrasing, pedaling, tempo indication, and so forth. Huneker's entire work is reprinted here unchanged, thoroughly edited in running footnotes by Herbert Weinstock to correct the exuberant Huneker's inaccuracies and to add information that modern musical scholarship has unearthed. Weinstock has also provided an engrossing introductory essay on Huneker, and has amplified the bibliography to include modern books and articles on Chopin. A classic in musical biography and commentary, this work is unsurpassed for sympathetic understanding and insight into Chopin's life and music. It will interest equally music students, pianists, and music lovers.

Préface par Alexis Galpérine Avant-propos d'Henri DutilleuxIntroduction de Philippe Hersant ' We are the words- we are the music- we are the thing itself ', En reprenant cette pensée de Virginia Woolf dans son chef d'oeuvre Chants de l'Âme, Olivier Greif (1950-2000) posait la question du lien unissant l'homme au monde et à la création artistique, À leur tour, les mots et la musique lui rendent hommage par l'intermédiaire de ses amis et de ses proches qui, dans cet ouvrage, dessinent le portrait de ce génie musical du XXe siècle,Plus de dix années après la disparition soudaine de ce créateur exceptionnel, We are the words collecte pensées, récits et anecdotes nous permettant de découvrir ou de se souvenir d'Olivier Greif, au travers des mots de grands noms de la musique contemporaine français comme Henri Dutilleux, Marc Minkowski, Jean-Claude Casadesus, Emmanuelle Bertrand et Pascal Amoyel,We are the words, le premier ouvrage consacré à la production musicale et la vie d'Olivier Greif, transcrit les entretiens effectués dans le cadre du coffret de douze DVD de la collection ' Les Incontournables ', écrite et réalisée par Anne-Bramard Blagny et Julia Blagny : une série de documentaires mettant en lumière l'oeuvre d'un compositeur incompris de son époque, mais dont les spécialistes savent que l'histoire retiendra Olivier Greif comme un des grands maîtres de la musique française de la deuxième moitié du XXe siècle,Fougueuse, impulsive, enivrante, profonde et libre de contraintes, la musique singulière d'Olivier nous plonge dans la sensibilité exacerbée d'un homme à l'apparente candeur, mais hautement préoccupé par la mort, À l'image de ses oeuvres, ces entretiens se veulent le reflet des différentes facettes de la vie d'un compositeur à la fois mystique et friand de sucreries,,,Il aura suffi d'un concert hommage à l'Abbaye de La Prée pour qu'Anne Bramard-Blagny, réalisatrice de documentaires dijonnaise, se prenne d'une affection passionnée pour la musique d'Olivier Greif et choisisse de lui rendre hommage, Avec plus de 150 documentaires à leur actif, les productions ABB Reportages mettent en lumière la production culturelle et scientifique de personnalités bourguignonnes dont, l'oeuvre, trop souvent méconnue, est digne de plus grand intérêt, Ont contribué à l'ouvrage : Anne Bramard-Blagny, Marie-Claude Pascal, Laure Broulard, Etienne Yver, Alexis Galpérine, Paul Blagny, Thibaut Lily, Olivier Haquette Ainsi que : Pascal Amoyel, Patricia Aubertin, Henri Barda, Emmanuelle Bertrand, René Bosc, Brigitte François-Sappey, Jean-Jacques Greif, Andréa Hill, Patrick Langot, Benoît Menut, Stéphanie Moraly, Yves Petit de Voize, Gaëtane Prouvost, Marylis et François Raoul-Duval et Etienne Yver Le livre d'entretiens en DVD de la collection 'Les incontournables', Olivier Greif, (Diapason d'Or), est disponible sur le site internet de ABB Reportages à l'adresse suivante : http://www,abbreportages,fr / Livre

Written by Brett Morgen with Richard Bienstock, Cobain: Montage Of Heck is a true goldmine of exclusive material collected and created for the acclaimed documentary. Delving further into the interviews, art and photography used in the film, this book is the perfect companion piece to the definitive film on this genuine legend's life.Even if you haven't yet seen the film, or you've loved it and have been left wanting more, Cobain: Montage Of Heck will definitely quench your thirst for all things Kurt Cobain and Nirvana. The legendary singer, songwriter and guitarist has gone down in history as almost a mythically brilliant voice of a generation, turning late 20th century angst into electrifying rock music. Brett Morgen's Montage Of Heck documentary was fully authorised by the Cobain family, after his widow Courtney Love approached him with the idea for the film.Getting exclusive access to Cobain's personal and family archives was an unprecedented achievement, allowing Morgen to delve deeply into home movies, recordings, artwork, photography, demos and journals, presenting an intimate portrait of Cobain's personal life as well as his astonishing artistry. The exclusive interviews in the film have provided fans with incredible insight into Cobain's life, featuring words from all the key figures like Courtney Love, Krist Novoselic, and his parents. Included in this book are extended versions of these interviews, giving unbridled vision into his life and work, told by the people who knew him best.Accompanying these interviews are some incredible and often never-before-seen visuals including animation stills from the films, personal art, candid photography and other treasures from his personal archive. Looking at these visuals, readers will find a true sense of the tortured genius, the artist who achieved enormous success and almost demi-god status yet still struggled with his personal, all-too-human demons. Since Cobain's tragic death, fans have been left with nothing but his music and an overwhelming amount of press rumours and cinema speculation. Now, Cobain: Montage Of Heck and the accompanying documentary provides the most definitive insight into the real man behind the musical legend.For nearly everyone who is interested in popular music, this book is absolutely fascinating. Cobain's boundary-pushing art has almost been overshadowed by rumour, but this book thankfully restores both to their rightful place, setting examples of his boundless creativity alongside authorised truths from the people who knew him intimately. Cobain: Montage Of Heck is sure to be seen as a true classic of rock biography. / Livre

Updated Edition-If you ever needed proof that a magazine can have a love affair with a musician you're holding it in your hands. For DownBeat the preeminent publication of the jazz world Miles Dewey Davis was one of its most cherished subjects. Since it began covering the jazz scene in 1939 no other artist has been more diligently chronicled in its pages than Davis.The beauty of this collection is seeing the development of an artist over time. The reviews of his music go from quietly introducing a new talent to revering perhaps the greatest jazz artist of his generation. The feature articles begin with a very young very polite Davis lamenting I've worked so little. Icould probably tell you where I was playing any night in the last three years. As he develops the interviews show Davis gaining confidence and stature showing swagger and becoming the over-the-top say-it-like-it-is showman that made every interview an event.The Miles Davis Reader compiles more than 200 news stories feature articles and reviews by some of the greatest writers in jazz into one volume. It delivers a patchwork of his words and music - in the moment as they happened. With several lengthy features added along with a dozen new photographs this new edition is a beautiful series of snapshots a year-by-year ride through the many phases of Davis as an artist and as a man.

Few composers since the mid-twentieth century have escaped Mahler's influence. This book is the first discussion of Mahler's ten completed symphonies to offer music lovers a comprehensive overview of the music as it strikes today's listeners. The book caters to the novice as well as the expert as David Hurwitz describes what the listener will hear section by section. He explains how each work is arranged how the various parts relate to one another and how one work leads to the next. The emphasis throughout is on the experience of listening and how each symphony embodies Mahler's dictum that the symphony 'must embrace the world. It must contain everything'. Hurwitz describes the emotional extravagance that lies at the root of Mahler's popularity the consistency of his symphonic thinking and his dazzling and revolutionary use of orchestral instruments to create an expressive musical language that is varied in content and immediate in impact.

Her status went beyond cult; her triumphs and failures appeared on the front page of newspapers all over the world.This profusely illustrated musical biography covers Callas's life and career.

l'Autre Biography [Textbook] Le Bord de l'Eau

Road book. Rencontre réjouissante entre deux chanteurs, deux amis, qui se livrent sans tabous.
Ils parlent de tout. Sans tabous. Avec humour ou gravité. De leur enfance, leurs débuts dans le métier, leur carrière, leurs influences, leurs projets? Ils parlent de femmes, de politique, de littérature, de musique, de cinéma, de sport, d'écriture, de galères et de succès. C'est une discussion à bâtons rompus, commencée à Ouessant, au bistrot de Phiphi la boulange, président du fan-club mondial de Christophe Miossec, poursuivie à Perpignan, chez Bruno Caliciuri, le Catalan, puis à Bruxelles, ville d'adoption de Miossec le Brestois. Une conversation pleine de spontanéité entre deux figures de la scène française, deux ` frères de chanson liés par la même façon d'oser tout dire `.
Leur complicité est rare. Elle s'impose au lecteur dès les premières lignes de cet ouvrage que l'on parcourt comme un road book. Car il y a davantage que de l'estime entre eux. Il y a de la tendresse. Il y a de l'amitié, de l'amour. Une relation privilégiée que le photographe Claude Gassian a magnifiquement su saisir. ` Echanger un tas de conneries avec une personne que l'on aime profondément est un luxe délicieux, souligne Cali. Du temps gagné sur la vie. `
Au fil de cette ` rencontre au fil de l'autre `, ils rient, se taquinent, s'agacent, s'enflamment. Le Catalan se raconte sans fausse pudeur. Il parle comme il est sur scène : généreux et entier. Sa sensibilité transpire à chaque phrase, notamment lorsqu'il évoque son enfance , sa famille, ce père disparu trop tôt qui lui répétait sans cesse : ` Tu fais ce que tu veux, mais tu dois savoir une seule chose, c'est que je te fais confiance. `
Le Breton est plus insaisissable. Dans la préface, le producteur Laurent Lavige écrit avec justesse : ` A travers ces entretiens, l'animal se laisse approcher et donne de sa personne mais il n'est jamais docile. ` Miossec ne se livre que par petites touches. Parfois, il se lâche, parle de sa vie, de ses vies - lorsqu'il fut journaliste à la Réunion, ` roadie ` pour Miles David ou rédacteur pour TF1 - , de son rapport à l'argent, de son caractère ombrageux, de son père fan de BB King? Imprévisible, il laisse à voir, un peu, entrouvre une porte, puis la referme, brusquement, et se réfugie dans l'ironie et la ` provoc `.
Tous deux adorent la littérature américaine, Johnny Cash et Dominique A. Tous les deux sont de grands mélancoliques, de ` joyeux désespérés `, qui chantent les blessures de l'amour plutôt que ses bonheurs. A la fois si proches et tellement différents, ils sont, dans ce livre, tels qu'on les aime. Tels qu'on les attendait. / Variété / Livre /

Par CANTAGREL GILLES. «Ce livre est né de toutes les curiosités que suscitent Bach et sa musique. Combien de fois ne m'a-t-on posé les mêmes questions, révélant les incompréhensions qui persistent autour du cantor de Leipzig ?
Un compositeur très peu connu de son vivant ? Faux, on l'appelait alors le 'mondialement célêbre Bach'.
Oublié aprês sa mort en 1750 ? Pas du tout, Beethoven et Mozart jouaient ses oeuvres et les admiraient.
Anna Magdalena, sa veuve, réduite à la mendicité ? Erreur, encore, puisqu'elle a bénéficié jusqu'à la fin de ses jours de pensions modestes.
Sans descendants aujourd'hui ? Allons donc, il en existe d'assez nombreux qui honorent sa mémoire.
Preuves à l'appui, la réalité se révêle beaucoup plus diverse et riche. Beaucoup plus intéressante, aussi.»
Il fallait l'érudition et les talents de passeur de Gilles Cantagrel pour redonner à Bach son épaisseur et, à son oeuvre, sa portée.
En détaillant chaque aspect de sa vie et de son héritage, il nous donne les clés pour mesurer l'importance de son apport et, se faisant, dresse un véritable monument de papier à ce pilier de la musique occidentale.
Livre de passionné riche de mille découvertes, Sur les traces de Jean-Sébastien Bach dévoile un familier méconnu, une musique tant de fois entendue, si révérée mais jamais tout à fait comprise. / Broché / Livre / Livres

He lived in the shadow of death painfully aware of the tuberculosis that would kill him prematurely. But Frédéric Chopin attained immortality with his Piano works which endure as pinnacles of the instrument's repertoire. This biography by one of the nineteenth century's foremost pianists--Chopin's friend and fellow artist Franz Liszt--offers a highly informed assessment of the Polish composer's musical legacy. It is further enlivened by the author's personal acquaintance with Chopin's other friends who constituted the very cream of Parisian intellectual and artistic society.Born a year apart Chopin andLiszt came of age in an era favorable to musical change when audiences as well as performers were receptive to Romanticism's innovations. Liszt surveys the technical brilliance as well as the poetry of Chopin's masterpieces including the 'Adagio' from Piano Concerto No. 2 and Polonaise in F-sharp Minor. He also chronicles Chopin's progress from child prodigy to the darling of Parisian salons. A source of rare and unparalleled insights into Chopin's world of private anguish and public triumph this memoir recounts the composer's loneliness as a Polish emigré his tempestuous romance with George Sand and his life among a glittering social set that included Balzac Hugo Berlioz Delacroix and Schumann.Reprint of the Oliver Ditson Company Boston 1880 edition.

Qui est Jacques Douai ?
Jacques Douai est un chanteur français. De son vrai nom Gaston Tanchon, il est né le 20 décembre 1920 à Douai (d?où il tirera son nom de scène). Il est mort le 7 août 2004 à Paris. Il était surnommé « le troubadour des temps modernes ». Il a chanté Prévert, Aragon, Ferré, Trenet, Max Jacob, Georges Brassens, Jacques Brel... mais aussi des poètes du Moyen Âge comme Chrétien de Troyes, Rutebeuf ou François Villon. Il a été le premier interprète masculin de la chanson Les Feuilles mortes de Prévert et Kosma en 1947. Il a reçu le grand prix de l?Académie Charles-Cros à plusieurs reprises : 1955, 1962, 1968.
Le Livre - Une biographie - toute une époque
Jacques Douai a été un artiste prestigieux à l?écart du grand public et des médias. Son immense talent d?interprète de la chanson poétique n?a d?égal que la détermination tenace du militant culturel. Sa carrière, étalée sur la seconde partie du siècle écoulé, a commencé au cabaret : Chez Pomme, au Quod Libet, à La Rose Rouge, à L?Échelle de Jacob, Chez Solange, à La Reine Blanche, au Club du Vieux-Colombier... et dans de nombreux autres lieux dont les plus connus préfigurent l?âge d?or de la chanson. Puis la scène, le disque et la culture populaire se succèdent pour cet animateur inlassable d?une prophétique civilisation des loisirs. Inspiré de Jules Ferry et des grands humanistes de son parcours, il a porté le chant des poètes à toutes les sensibilités. Il a été l?ambassadeur de la chanson francophone sous toutes les latitudes avant de créer, avec Thérèse Palau, le Ballet national populaire de danses françaises puis le Théâtre populaire de la chanson, enfin, avec Ethery Pagava, l?admirable et généreux théâtre du Jardin. Cet ouvrage veut ainsi répondre à un devoir de mémoire et d?amitié. L?aventure humaine et artistique de Jacques Douai doit échapper à l?indifférence et à l?oubli. Elle témoigne de grandes et belles heures de notre patrimoine.

Par DUPRE / BIOJOUT. Ayant toujours vécu à Londres, Henry Purcell (1659-1698) servit les monarques anglais à la Chapelle Royale de Westminster comme copiste puis comme organiste et compositeur. Son nom est notamment rattaché à celui de la Reine Mary II, dont il célébra en musique le couronnement mais aussi les tristes funérailles. Outre ses Odes, Antiennes, Songs, Catches et autres à??uvres intrumentales, on lui doit de nombreuses musiques de scênes, qu'il s'agisse de Masques (King Arthur, The Fairy Queen, entre autres) mais aussi un opéra, Didon et énée, qui a traversé les ges et continue fréquemment d'être interprété. Bien que mort prématurément, la contribution de cet Orpheus Britannicus? à la musique anglaise est majeure, et Purcell influença durablement plusieurs générations de compositeurs, parmi lesquels on compte Georg Friedrich Haendel ou encore Johann Sebastian Bach. Ouvrage entiêrement révisé et complété, avec un chapitre additionnel et des annexes inédites. / Broché / Livre / Livres

Par SCHUMANN. Préface de Michel Schneider C'est à l'âge de dix-neuf ans que Robert Schumann fit la connaissance de Clara, enfant prodige du piano. Ils jouaient ensemble à quatre mains, il improvisait pour elle. Leur amitié passionnée se transmua bientôt en un amour conscient de lui-même, auquel s'opposa vigoureusement le père de Clara. Aprês trois années de souffrance et de clandestinité, ils passêrent outre le refus paternel et se mariêrent le 15 septembre 1840. Les lettres publiées dans ce volume s'arrêtent à cette époque. Unique de simplicité et d'émotion romanesque, cette correspondance nous donne à voir deux existences pour lesquelles l'amour et la musique ne sont qu'une seule et même chose. Chez Clara, l'on découvre aussi un amour filial torturé, et ce que la vie de virtuose comporte, même dans le succês et la gloire, de travail forcené et de solitude. Chez Robert, se dévoilent les souffrances et exaltations de la création. Un duo extraordinaire, où l'enthousiasme et la sagesse, la fierté et l'humilité, l'ardeur, et surtout l'appel constant de la musique, se font entendre dans la joie et la douleur d'une adoration réciproque. / Broché / Livre / Livres
