Stokowski and the Organ
Author: Rollin Smith
Publisher: Pendragon Press
ISBN: 9781576471036
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 300
Book Description
Leopold Stokowski began his career in England as an organist and choirmaster. This first major study of Stokowski's early years covers his education at the Royal College of Music, his church posts in London, and his three years spent as director of music at New York's prestigious St. Bartholomew's Church. An examination of the programs of his organ recitals (played on the third largest organ in America), a list of his repertoire, facsimiles of his original choral works, an analysis of his Aeolian player organ roll of Bach's Passacaglia, and a detailed study of his famous orchestral transcriptions of Bach's organ works, reveals a new and unique insight into Stokowski's unparalleled career in music.

Stokowski
Author: Oliver Daniel

ISBN:
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 1124
Book Description
Daniel, long time associate and friend unfolds "Stoki's" extraordinary career, spanning more than 75 years of music-making. The story of this conductor's involvement with the musical institutions of this century, his vigor, productivity and vision, is closely entwined with the history of music in America. Though there were many facets to Stokowski's personality, including his vanity, showmanship, and love of publicity, Daniel reminds us that behind the glamour and headlines, Stokowski's contribution to music was profound and of lasting importance. The author's style is anecdotal, relying on extensive quotations from memoirs, correspondence and especially personal interviews. ISBN 0-396-07936-9.
