The Ninth: Beethoven and the World in 1824 by Harvey Sachs EPUB screenshot
English | June 15, 2010 | Random House | ISBN: 9781588369819 | 3.76 MB | 240 Pages | EPUB
The premier of Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony in Vienna on May 7, 1824, was the most significant artistic event of the year—and the work remains one of the most precedent-shattering and influential compositions in the history of music. Described in vibrant detail by eminent musicologist Harvey Sachs, this symbol of freedom and joy was so unorthodox that it amazed and confused listeners at its unveiling—yet it became a standard for subsequent generations of creative artists, and its composer came to embody the Romantic cult of genius.

Boring Formless Nonsense: Experimental Music and the Aesthetics of Failure by Eldritch Priest EPUB screenshot
English | 14 Mar 2013 | Bloomsbury Publishing | ISBN: 9781441146168 | 960 KB | 336 Pages | EPUB
Boring Formless Nonsense intervenes in an aesthetics of failure that has largely been delimited by the visual arts and its avant-garde legacies. It focuses on contemporary experimental composition in which failure rubs elbows with the categories of chance, noise, and obscurity. In these works we hear failure anew. We hear boredom, formlessness, and nonsense in a way that gives new purchase to aesthetic, philosophical, and ethical questions that falter in their negative capability.

Men, Women and Pianos: A Social History by Arthur Loesser MOBI screenshot
English | 30th March 2012 | Dover Publications | ISBN: 9780486171616 | 1.55 MB | 672 Pages | MOBI
As the "social anchor" in middle-class homes of the nineteenth century, the piano was simultaneously an elegant piece of drawing-room furniture, a sign of bourgeois prosperity, and a means of introducing the young to music. In this admirably balanced and leisurely account of the popular instrument, the late, internationally known concert pianist Arthur Loesser takes a "piano's-eye view" of the recent social history of Western Europe and the United States.

Sampling, Biting, and the Postmodern Subversion of Hip Hop by Jim Vernon EPUB screenshot
English | 21 June 2021 | Palgrave Macmillan Cham | ISBN: 9783030749033 | 388 KB | 133 Pages | EPUB
Drawing on the culture’s history before and after the birth of rap music, this book argues that the values attributed to Hip Hop by ‘postmodern’ scholars stand in stark contrast with those that not only implicitly guided its aesthetic elements, but are explicitly voiced by Hip Hop’s pioneers and rap music’s most consequential artists. It argues that the structural evacuation of the voices of its founders and organic intellectuals in the postmodern theorization of Hip Hop has foreclosed the culture’s ethical values and political goals from scholarly view, undermining its unity and progress.

Throughout his career as composer, conductor, and pianist, Sergei Rachmaninoff (1873–1943) was an intensely private individual.

It also focuses on E-mu Systems and the use of its keyboards and drum machines in hip-hop.

Music and Human Flourishing - Edited by Anna Harwell Celenza EPUB screenshot
English | 19 May 2023 | Oxford University Press | ISBN: 9780197646779 | 2.05 MB | 249 Pages | EPUB
It has long been accepted that participating in music, either as a performer, listener, or composer, can contribute to human happiness and well-being. This volume, part of The Humanities and Human Flourishing series, explores a fourth musical activity--the act of music scholarship--and reveals how engagement with the cultural, social, and political practices surrounding music contributes to human flourishing in a way that listening, performing, and even composing alone cannot.

Modes of Communication in Stravinsky’s Works: Sign and Expression EPUB screenshot
English | December 16, 2021 | Routledge | ISBN: 9781003218463 | 2.56 MB | 240 Pages | EPUB
Igor Stravinsky left behind a complex heritage of music and ideas. There are many examples of discrepancies between his literate statements about music and musicians and his musical compositions and activity. Per Dahl presents a model of communication that unveils a clear and logical understanding of Stravinsky's heritage, based on the extant material available. From this, Dahl argues the case for Stravinsky’s music and his ideas as separate entities, representing different modes of communication.

Miles on Miles: Interviews and Encounters with Miles Davis - Edited by Paul Maher and Michael Dorr EPUB screenshot
English | Jun 2021 | Chicago Review Press | ISBN: 9781641606011 | 1.65 MB | 352 Pages | EPUB
Up close and personal, words and thoughts from the man himself
Gathering the 30 most vital Miles Davis interviews—on his music, his life, and his philosophy—this collection reveals the jazz icon as a complex and contradictory man, secretive at times but extraordinarily revealing at others. Miles was not only a musical genius, but an enigma, and nowhere else was he so compelling, exasperating, and entertaining as he was in his interviews, which vary from polite to outrageous, from straight-ahead to contrarian.

Bowie, Beckett, and Being: The Art of Alienation by Rodney Sharkey EPUB screenshot
English | 11 Jan 2024 | Bloomsbury Publishing | ISBN: 9781501391255 | 15.3 MB | 256 Pages | EPUB
Addressing their shared passion for literature, art, and music, this book documents how Samuel Beckett and David Bowie produce extraordinarily empathetic creative outputs that reflect the experience and the effect of alienation. Through an exploration of their artistic practices, the study also illustrates how both artists articulate shared forms of human experience otherwise silenced by normative modes of representation. To liberate these experiences, Bowie and Beckett create alternative theatrical, musical, and philosophical spaces, which help frame the power relations of the psychological, verbal, and material places we inhabit.
