Alfred Music #74-0143126067. Published by Alfred Music (AP.74-0143126067). ISBN 9780143126065. English. [Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart] By Paul Johnson. In this brilliant biography, acclaimed historian Paul Johnson draws upon his expert knowledge of the era and Mozart's own private letters to conjure Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's life and times in rich detail. Johnson charts Mozart's life from age three through to his later years. Along the way, Johnson challenges some of the popular myths that cloud Mozart's image: his allegedly tempestuous personal relationships and supposedly bitter rivalry with Salieri, as well as the notion that he was desperately impoverished when he died. The result---a bold, invigorating portrait of one of the most popular and influential composers of all time. $17.00 - See more - Buy onlinePre-shipment lead time: 1 to 2 weeks | | |

Alfred Music #74-1592406739. Published by Alfred Music (AP.74-1592406739). ISBN 9781592406739. English. [Led Zeppelin] By Stephen Davis. A revealing insider's account of Led Zeppelin's 1975 North American tour from the bestselling author of Hammer of the Gods. As a young music journalist in 1975, Stephen Davis got the opportunity of a lifetime: an invitation to cover the sold-out 1975 North American tour of Led Zeppelin for a national magazine. He received a backstage pass, was granted interviews with band members, and even got a prized seat on the band's luxurious tour jet, The Starship. While on duty, he chronicled the Zeppelin tour in three notebooks, but after writing his article in 1975 he misplaced them. Three decades later, he finally found the notebooks and unearthed a vivid account of the band members' extravagant, and often troubled, lives on tour. Tied together by Davis's entertaining narrative, and including more than forty never-before-published photographs, LZ-'75 is an unprecedented and comprehensive personal portrait of the greatest (and most notoriously press-shy) rock band in history at its apex. $16.00 - See more - Buy onlinePre-shipment lead time: 1 to 2 weeks | | |

Language: German. Preface: Erkens, Richard / Schickling, Dieter. Musikbuch des Jahres bei der Kritikerumfrage der Zeitschrift ,,Opernwelt
Die Opern Giacomo Puccinis rangieren seit mehr als hundert Jahren auf Spitzenpositionen des weltweiten Repertoires: Tosca, Butterfly oder Turandot faszinieren noch heute, ebenso wie die Genialitat der kantablen Erfindung Puccinis.
Das Handbuch bietet Artikel zu allen Werken und Beitrage zur Biografie, zur Politik-, Kultur- und Operngeschichte Italiens und zum transnationalen Einfluss von Puccinis Werk. Neben der Rezeptionsgeschichte bis hin zu gegenwartigen Inszenierungen liegen die Schwerpunkte auf Fragen der Werkentstehung, der Librettisten, der Vers-, Form-, Melodie- und Klangbildungen sowie der Besonderheiten von Musikdramaturgie und Szene. Erstmalig bundelt das Handbuch die Erkenntnisse der internationalen Forschung, die manch vertraut geglaubte Werkfassung und Lebensepisode revidiert.
So zeigt etwa ein wieder entdeckter Kurzfilm aus dem Jahr 1913 Puccini in hauslicher Idylle - und deckt zugleich auf, dass diese Idylle nur eine gespielte war: Der Selbstmord eines Dienstmadchens hatte ihn in die schwerste private Krise seines Ehelebens gesturzt. Wie Biographie, Werkbiographie und Musikdramaturgie zusammenhangen, erschliesst dieses Buch.
Richard Erkens war freier Musikjournalist und Leitender Musikdramaturg sowie Stellvertretender Operndirektor am Theater Lubeck. Zurzeit ist er Wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter an der Musikgeschichtlichen Abteilung des Deutschen Historischen Instituts in Rom. $107.95 - See more - Buy onlinePre-shipment lead time: 1 to 2 weeks | | |

Maria Callas was almost as famous for her personal life - her jet-setting her staggering weight loss her tigress-like temperament - as she was for her singing.Of Greek parentage the New York-born internationally famous Callas was the most influential soprano of the 20th century reviving a school of singing - bel canto - that had been forgotten for 75 years. Unlike most of her generation of sopranos she was a superb actress both vocally and physically: her voice encompassed many colours and she embodied each character she portrayed. After seeing or hearing her in a role it was said it was difficult to imagine another singer attempting it so fierce was herindividual stamp. 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. A final third of the book analyzes the tracks on the two CDs describing what made Callas unique what made Callas Callas. Listen for yourselves to La Divina ('the divine one') as the Italians dubbed her and be amazed.

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.

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.

Johann Sebastian Bach Volume I. This monumental study of Johann Sebastian Bach ...(+)
Johann Sebastian Bach Volume I. This monumental study of Johann Sebastian Bach ranks among the great classics of musicology. Since its first publication in 1873-80, it has remained the basic work on Bach and the foundation of later research and study. The three-part treatment describes in chronological sequence practically everything that is known of the composer's life: his ancestry, his immediate family, his associations, his employers, and the countless occasions on which his musical genius emerged. Author Philipp Spitta accompanies this biographical material with quotations from primary sources: correspondence, family records, diaries, official documents, and more. In addition to biographical data, Spitta reviews Bach's musical production, with analyses of more than 500 pieces, covering all the important works. More than 450 musical excerpts are included in the main text, and a 43-page musical supplement illustrates longer passages. Despite the scholarly nature of this work, it also has the rare distinction of being a study that can be read with considerable enjoyment and great profit by every serious music lover, with or without a substantial background in the history of music or musical theory.
