Opera in the Age of Rousseau
Author: David Charlton
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1139789066
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 437
Book Description
Historians of French politics, art, philosophy and literature have long known the tensions and fascinations of Louis XV's reign, the 1750s in particular. David Charlton's study comprehensively re-examines this period, from Rameau to Gluck and elucidates the long-term issues surrounding opera. Taking Rousseau's Le Devin du Village as one narrative centrepiece, Charlton investigates this opera's origins and influences in the 1740s and goes on to use past and present research to create a new structural model that explains the elements of reform in Gluck's tragédies for Paris. Charlton's book opens many new perspectives on the musical practices and politics of the period, including the Querelle des Bouffons. It gives the first detailed account of intermezzi and opere buffe performed by Eustachio Bambini's troupe at the Paris Opéra from August 1752 to February 1754 and discusses Rameau's comedies Platée and Les Paladins and their origins.

Tanz und Musik
Author: Christelle Cazaux
Publisher: Schwabe Verlag (Basel)
ISBN: 379654973X
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 442
Book Description
Wie beeinflussen Tanzbewegungen die musikalische Spielweise? Und umgekehrt: Welche Wirkung hat die musikalische Interpretation auf die Ausführung einer Choreografie? Wie stehen tänzerische und melodische Phrasierung zueinander? Derlei Fragen zum Verhältnis von Tanz und Musik ergeben sich sowohl bei der praktischen Ausführung als auch bei der Erforschung historischer ‹Tanzmusik›. Entsprechend vielseitig sind die Zugänge, mit denen dieser interdisziplinäre Band ‹Tanzmusik› vom Mittelalter bis zur Romantik untersucht, kontextualisiert und im Sinne historischer Musikpraxis erschließt. Im Mittelpunkt steht die Wechselbeziehung zwischen Klang und Bewegung in verschiedenen historischen Repertoires, Gattungen und Formen.

Essay on the Origin of Languages and Writings Related to Music
Author: Jean-Jacques Rousseau
Publisher: UPNE
ISBN: 1611681278
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 658
Book Description
Jean-Jacques Rousseau the writer-philosopher was a practicing musician and theorist for years before publication of his first Discourse, but scholars have neglected these fertile, inexhaustible ideas because they were either unavailable in a critical edition or viewed as standing outside the aegis of his system of thought. This graceful translation remedies both those failings by bringing together the Essay with a comprehensive selection of the musical writings. Many of the latter are responses to authors like Rameau, Grimm, and Raynal, and a unique feature of this edition is the inclusion of writings by these authors to help establish the historical and ideological context of Rousseau's writings and the intellectual exchanges of which they are a part.
