Описание: Liszt in Context explores the political, social, philosophical and professional currents that surrounded Franz Liszt and illuminates the competing forces that influenced his music. Liszt was immersed in the religious, political and cultural debates of his day, and moved between institutions, places, and social circles with ease. All of this makes for a rich contextual tapestry against which Liszt composed some of the most iconic, popular, and also contentious music of the nineteenth century. His significance and astonishing reach cannot be over-stated, and his presence in nineteenth-century European culture, and his continuing influence into the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, are overwhelming. The focus on context, reception, and legacy that this volume provides reveals the multifaceted nature of Liszt's impact during his lifetime and beyond.

Описание: In Dramaturgical Leaves: Essays about Musical Works for the Stage and Queries about the Stage, Its Composers and Performers, the third volume in Janita R. Hall-Swadley's The Collected Writings of Franz Liszt, Liszt heralds his admiration for early nineteenth-century opera and musical stage works. He honors Gluck, the musical prophet, as the cultivator of dramatic truth in the Romantic opera Orpheus, expounds on Beethoven's harmonic inventions and innovative treatment of form in Fidelio, and argues for the latter's incidental music to Goethe's Egmont as the epitome of music organicism, a complete unity of words and tone. He also comments on Weber's Euryanthe as offering the most progressive musical characterizations and declamation--even more so than his popular work Der Freisch tz--and on how both works prefigure Wagner's music dramas; awards Mendelssohn, whose genius Liszt ranks only slightly less than Beethoven's, top honors for creating in Midsummer's Night Dream the highest standards of music poetry; suggests how Scribe and Meyerbeer's Robert the Devil paints a mental image of art's eternal flames, where poet and musician share equal space in the development of music tragedy; reveals how the poetic deficiencies in the libretto to Schubert's Alfonso and Estrella are too easily overlooked because of the music's melodic and lyrical supremacy; and offers in contrast Auber's Mute from Portici, a remarkable text by many historically picturesque musical motives that are universal and nationalistic at the same time. Finally Liszt offers an early gender study in music in his essay about Bellini's Montague and Capulet (as well as its impact on nineteenth-century audiences), a look at Boieldieu's White Lady as a sublime depiction of literary music, and Donizetti's Favorite as colored with a special type of imagery, a laterna magica, in Liszt's hand. The beloved soprano Pauline Viardot-Garcia receives special attention in an essay devoted entirely to her, and Liszt proffers a critique of entr'acte music as a pointless tradition that dethrones music and insults the artist and composer by making music a "palate cleanser." This volume includes a detailed discussion about what it meant to be patronized by Liszt and how his support--financial, literary, and musical--helped shape many a music career. It also offers commentary on how gender in opera was sometimes obscured not only for dramatic interest but also as part of the process of outlining a nation's identity, as well as a thorough study of Liszt's concepts of Gestalt theory, the Archetype, and his musical Weltanschauung (his musical "world view"), all revealing his contribution to 19th-century music philosophy as it relates to opera. Finally, a historical review of entr'acte music is presented--how it began and how it developed--to clarify Liszt's stance against it, making this volume a necessary read for music historians, serious musicians, and music connoisseurs alike.

Описание: During his early years, Franz Liszt worked as a traveling piano virtuoso, his adventures highlighted by his entree into the literary world as a correspondent for the most popular French journals of his time. In this second volume of Janita Hall-Swadley s The Collected Writings of Franz Liszt, Liszt s work as a music essayist and journalist is on full display. In his essays, readers will see the influence of the revolutionary theories of Hugues-Felicite Robert de Lamennais, Victor Hugo, and Francois-Rene de Chateaubriand as Liszt boldly calls for social reforms on behalf of musicians and musical institutions, from demands for a repertoire of church music of divine praise to the timely publication of inexpensive music editions.In addition to Liszt s scandalous review of Sigismond Thalberg and the fiery exchange that ensued, the essays include his testimonies to living composers Giacomo Meyerbeer and Robert Schumann and the recently deceased Niccolo Paganini. Alongside the essay, this new translation of Liszt s letters opens a window onto the composer s immersion in the Italian countryside, where he paints a portrait of a rich musical landscape. Liszt regales his correspondents with amusing anecdotes at Sand s Italian country estate in Nohant, describes the beautiful landscape and artistic treasures of Italy from his residence on Lake Como, defends himself from Heinrich Heine s accusations of his ill-seated character, discusses the religious aesthetic of Raphael s painting, and offers his thoughts on the interconnectedness of all the arts. Including two complete facsimile reproductions of the existing manuscripts for De la situation des artistes and Sur Paganini a propos de sa mort, Essays and Letters of a Traveling Bachelor of Music is a must-read for student and scholars of 19th-century classical music.
