Описание: Mozart, the Salzburg Years, 1756-1781, Insights and Images encompasses the composer’s early years of travel throughout Europe as a child prodigy, his so-called ‘years of servitude’ in Salzburg as court composer, his subsequent search for a suitable position, and his return to his native city. Though there is no shortage of books about the life and work of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, this volume offers the reader new details and insights into the composer, accompanied by new and startling images never before seen in the Mozart literature.
The authors' research, spanning an eight-year period, was done in city archives across Europe and in other hitherto unknown repositories. The 400 images, of which 100 are newly discovered, directly relate to the composer’s life and his activities. Included are his friends and patrons, numerous performance sites, musicians and composers who interfaced with Mozart, and new maps and diagrams.
A chronology combines the life events of the composer with his compositions, year by year, employing the most current discoveries in this important area of Mozart studies. Several essays covering the second half of the eighteenth century help the reader place the book’s discoveries and content in its historical context. The authors are Catherine Sprague, pianist and independent researcher, and Dr. William Cowdery of Cornell University, (spurred on by Neal Zaslaw, author of Mozart books and countless publications in musicology).

Описание: Peaking in the 1960s, Pop Art began as a revolt against mainstream approaches to art and culture and evolved into a wholesale interrogation of modern society, consumerism, the role of the artist, and of what constituted an artwork. Epitomized by Warhol`s Campbell`s soup cans, Pop Art drew on mass-market sources and products as well as the banal...

Описание: When Joseph II placed his opera buffa troupe in competition with the re-formed Singspiel, he provoked an intense struggle between supporters of the rival national genres, who organized claques to cheer or hiss at performances, and encouraged press correspondents to write slanted notices. It was in this fraught atmosphere that Mozart collaborated with librettist Lorenzo da Ponte on his three mature Italian comedies--Figaro, Don Giovanni, and Cosм fan tutte. In Cabals and Satires: Mozart's Comic Operas in Vienna, Ian Woodfield brings the fascinating dynamics of this inter-troupe contest into focus. He reveals how Mozart, while not immune from the infighting, was able to weather satirical attacks, successfully negotiate the unpredictable twists and turns of theatre politics during the lean years of the Austro-Turkish War, and seal his reputation with a revival of Figaro in 1789 as a Habsburg festive work. Mozart's deft navigation of the turbulent political waters of this period left him well placed to benefit from the revival of the commercial stage in Vienna--the most enduring musical consequence of the war years.

Описание:
In Mozart's Pigtail, Townley offers an evocative series of poem-portraits of musicians, writers, and intimate friends. Townley honors these meaningful connections in his life, and readers experience how these subjects can ignite a poet's creative power.
"There is a delicacy that finds meaning in the small things that happen to great beings, in the great things that rise within our familiar friendships--or are they always somehow strange, as his poems discern. Townley's sure grasp of the telling detail, the precise word often shocking in its simplicity, gives power to these threnodies and serenades and downright love songs. His is a voice like no one else's I hear these days." --Robert Kelly
"Gentle but piercing, Roderick Townley's poems ring elegant and subtle changes on the themes of art and love: elegy and eros overlap in longing. A poet on whom, apparently, nothing is lost, Townley generously repays the debts that, as student and artist and son, he has incurred. If only every poet, musician, and teacher had a Townley to celebrate them. If only every mother, wife, or infant on the changing table inspired work like this." --Rachel Hadas
