Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - On any weekend in Texas, Czech polka music enlivens dance halls and drinking establishments as well as outdoor church picnics and festivals. The songs heard at these venues are the living music of an ethnic community created by immigrants who started arriving in Central Texas in the mid-nineteenth century from what is now the Czech Republic. Today, the members of this community speak English but their songs are still sung in Czech.Czech Songs in Texas includes sixty-one songs, mostly polkas and waltzes. The songs themselves are beloved heirlooms ranging from ceremonial music with origins in Moravian wedding traditions to exuberant polkas celebrating the pleasures of life. For each song, the book provides music notation, and the Czech lyrics are set side-by-side with English translation. Then, an essay explores the song's European roots, its American evolution, and the meaning of its lyrics and lists notable performances and recordings. In addition to the songs and essays, Frances Barton provides a chapter on the role of music in the Texas Czech ethnic community, and John K. Novok surveys Czech folk and popular music in its European home. The book both documents a specific musical inheritance and serves as a handbook for learning about a culture through its songs. As folklorist and polka historian James P. Leary writes in his foreword, "Barton and Novak take us on a poetic, historical, and ethnographic excursion deep into a community's expressive heartland. Their Czech Songs in Texas just might be the finest extant annotated anthology of any American immigrant/ethnic group's regional song tradition.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book investigates the spectrum of meaning inherent in six orchestral works by Leos Janácek. It codifies his compositional style, first through a thorough examination of its origins in folk music and speech-melody, then in discussions of the features of its melody and motivic techniques. His harmonic style and multiple organizations of tonality are examined in rich detail. The analysis section consists of the examination of each musical work's musical elements, its affective and programmatic associations, as well as four narrative codes through which the listener discovers further meaning in the work: the hermeneutic code (which governs enigmas), the semic code of musical motives, the proairetic (formal) code, and the referential code (which draws on analogous passages from other pieces of music). …

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - While minimally processed foods satisfy the increasing demand for foods with fewer preservatives, higher nutritive value, and fresh sensory attributes, they also carry a greater risk of diseases if they are improperly handled. This book explores novel food-borne disease prevention solutions from the perspectives of food producers, handlers, consumers, inspectors, and researchers. It reports on the latest research on assuring the microbial safety of meats, poultry, fish, vegetables, fruits, and bakery products that receive less than stringent sterilizing preparation. It also explores methods used for pathogen detection and preventing future pathogen occurrences and evaluates HACCP regulations and risk assessments.…
