The Classical Guitar Companion

The Classical Guitar Companion

Autor: Christopher Berg

Número de Páginas: 247

The Classical Guitar Companion is an anthology of guitar exercises, etudes, and pieces organized according to technique or musical texture. Expert author Christopher Berg, a veteran guitar instructor, bring together perspectives as an active performing artist and as a teacher who has trained hundreds of guitarists to encourages students to work based on their own strengths and weaknesses. The book opens with "Learning the Fingerboard", a large section devoted to establishing a thorough knowledge of the guitar fingerboard through a systematic and rigorous study of scales and fingerboard harmony, which will lead to ease and fluency in sight-reading and will reduce the time needed to learn a repertoire piece. The following sections "Scales and Scale Studies", "Repeated Notes", "Slurs", "Harmony", "Arpeggios", "Melody with Accompaniment", "Counterpoint" and "Florid or Virtuoso Studies" each contain text and examples that connect material to fingering practices of composers and practice strategies to open a path to interpretive freedom in performance. The Classical Guitar Companion will serve as a helpful companion for many years of guitar study.

The Silent Symphony

The Silent Symphony

Autor: Katelyn Jonsen

Número de Páginas: 475

In Veritas City, silence is survival. Decades after the Resonance, a catastrophic wave of sonic energy, silenced the city, music became a ghost, a forbidden memory. The Council of Sonic Purity rose from the ashes, promising order by eradicating all sound, leaving only the sterile hum of machinery and the chilling whispers of enforced quiet. Elias Vance, a former acoustic engineer haunted by phantom frequencies, lives a double life. By day, he conforms. By night, he rebels, composing illicit melodies in hidden echo chambers, acts of defiance against the suffocating silence. But when his friend and fellow composer, Teresa, is found dead, her bones vibrating with a final, fatal composition, Elias knows it’s more than a lament—it’s a map to a conspiracy far deeper than he could have imagined. Teresa’s last piece leads him to Michelle Lowe, a disgraced Council archivist silenced by the regime. Michelle hears the city differently, the hushed whispers and mechanical hums weaving a tapestry of vibrations only she can decipher. Together, they delve into Veritas City’s clandestine music scene, a vibrant counterpoint to the Council’s sterile control, encountering sonic smugglers, ...

John Gay and the London Theatre

John Gay and the London Theatre

Autor: Calhoun Winton

Número de Páginas: 232

The Beggar's Opera, often referred to today as the first musical comedy, was the most popular dramatic piece of the eighteenth century—and is the work that John Gay (1685-1732) is best remembered for having written. That association of popular music and satiric lyrics has proved to be continuingly attractive, and variations on the Opera have flourished in this century: by Kurt Weill and Bertolt Brecht, by Duke Ellington, and most recently by Vaclav Havel. The original opera itself is played all over the world in amateur and professional productions. But John Gay's place in all this has not been well defined. His Opera is often regarded as some sort of chance event. In John Gay and the London Theatre, the first book-length study of John Gay as dramatic author, Calhoun Winton recognized the Opera as part of an entirely self-conscious career in the theatre, a career that Gay pursued from his earliest days as a writer in London and continued to follow to his death. Winton emphasizes Gay's knowledge of and affection for music, acquired, he argues, by way of his association with Handel. Although concentrating on Gay and his theatrical career, Winton also limns a vivid portrait of...

Writing and Censorship in Britain

Writing and Censorship in Britain

Autor: Paul Hyland , Neil Sammells

Número de Páginas: 186

First published in 1992, Writing and Censorship in Britain explores the issue of censorship, from a range of cultural and literary perspectives, from the Tudor period to the 1990s. Written by some of the leading experts in the field, this collection charts the struggles for artistic expression, reveals how censorship is appropriated as a legitimate tactic in the defence of oppressed and marginalised groups, and analyses the struggles writers have employed in the face of its complex dynamics. Here variously defined, defended and deplored, censorship emerges as both an unstable and a potent concept. Through it we define ourselves: as readers, as writers and as citizens. This book will be of interest to students of literature, history and law.

Musik - und die Geschichte der Philosophie und Naturwissenschaften im Mittelalter

Musik - und die Geschichte der Philosophie und Naturwissenschaften im Mittelalter

Autor: Hentschel

Número de Páginas: 440

The medieval term musica was used in a broader sense than the modern term music. As a subject of the Quadrivium, musica was a mathematical subject in its own right, which is foreign to modern musical thinking. As part of philosophy, musica figured within a manifold network of sciences (e.g. Astronomy, Natural Philosophy) which since ca. 1200 were taught properly in the Faculty of Arts. Containing articles by specialists in medieval music and philosophy, this volume highlights aspects of the emergence and theory of knowledge, and the appearance of more aesthetic conceptions of music.

Hellenistic and Roman Sparta

Hellenistic and Roman Sparta

Autor: Paul Cartledge , Antony Spawforth

Número de Páginas: 318

In this new edition, Paul Cartledge and Antony Spawforth have taken account of recent finds and scholarship to revise and update their authoritative overview of later Spartan history, and of the social, political, economic and cultural changes in the Spartan community. This original and compelling account is especially significant in challenging the conventional misperception of Spartan 'decline' after the loss of her status as a great power on the battlefield in 371 BC. The book's focus on a frequently overlooked period makes it important not only for those interested specifically in Sparta, but also for all those concerned with Hellenistic Greece, and with the life of Greece and other Greek-speaking provinces under non-Roman rule.

Olof Rudbeck der Jüngere und die Sprachen des Nordens

Olof Rudbeck der Jüngere und die Sprachen des Nordens

Autor: Stefan Heinrich Bauhaus

Número de Páginas: 298

Olof Rudbeck der Jüngere (1660–1740) führt die Vision seines Vaters auf sprachlicher Ebene fort. Seine etymologischen Spekulationen nehmen eine Eigendynamik an, die letztlich zu einer Synthese aus gotizistischem und orthodoxem Sprachverständnis führt. Die Etymologie wird von einem bloßen Werkzeug häufig selbst zum Objekt der Fragestellungen. Untersucht werden die genauen Verfahren, die Rudbeck zur Begründung der von ihm postulierten sprachlichen Verwandtschaftsverhältnisse anwendet. So zieht er in seinen Etymologien phonologische, aber auch morphologische Argumente heran. Im Bereich der Phonologie etwa gibt es eine Systematik von Lautpermutationen. Durch seine spezifische Methodik gelingt Rudbeck dem Jüngeren eine sprachliche Transformation nicht nur der biblischen Antike, sondern auch des Schwedischen selbst, das als Hilfssprache eine Schlüsselstellung für die Bibelexegese einnehmen konnte.

The Etymologies of Isidore of Seville

The Etymologies of Isidore of Seville

Número de Páginas: 488

This work is a complete English translation of the Latin Etymologies of Isidore, Bishop of Seville (c.560–636). Isidore compiled the work between c.615 and the early 630s and it takes the form of an encyclopedia, arranged by subject matter. It contains much lore of the late classical world beginning with the Seven Liberal Arts, including Rhetoric, and touches on thousands of topics ranging from the names of God, the terminology of the Law, the technologies of fabrics, ships and agriculture to the names of cities and rivers, the theatrical arts, and cooking utensils. Isidore provides etymologies for most of the terms he explains, finding in the causes of words the underlying key to their meaning. This book offers a highly readable translation of the twenty books of the Etymologies, one of the most widely known texts for a thousand years from Isidore's time.

The Lute in the Netherlands in the Seventeenth Century

The Lute in the Netherlands in the Seventeenth Century

Autor: Jan W.j. Burgers , Tim Crawford , Matthew Spring

Número de Páginas: 364

The lute played a central role in the rich musical culture of the seventeenth-century ‘Golden Age’ of the Dutch Republic. Like the piano in the nineteenth century, the lute was not just a popular instrument for solo music making, but was also used widely in ensembles and to accompany singers. Though mainly an instrument of the social elite and the aristocracy, it was also played by the numerous and prosperous burgher class. The first part of the book deals with psalm settings for the lute; the way professional lutenists coped with the harsh rules of the free market; Leiden as a veritable international lute centre; and the different types of lutes that can be reconstructed on the basis of the Dutch paintings of the period. The second part of the book is dedicated to Constantijn Huygens (1596–1687), the well-known poet and statesman, and avid player of, and composer for, the lute. The third and final section deals with Dutch sources of lute music, printed as well as those in manuscript. Taken together, this volume provides a broad and many-layered overview of the lute in the seventeenth century. Collectively, the articles will further the reader’s understanding of the lute...
