Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Traditionally, it's the music that speaks from the stage, not themusicians themselves. By the beginning of the 20th century, theconcert hall and the music chamber were no longer regarded asappropriate venues for loud conversing, heavy drinking, recklessgambling, and high-society ogling. The concert, formerly regardedas a means of light if elegant entertainment, had become a sacredrite. Musicians and audience members alike were now expected tosit down, shut up, and focus solely and worshipfully on the music.If you were surprised or confused by the music, nobody couldhelp youexcept the person who had written the explanatorynotes in the printed program you clutched in your hands.Today, the atmosphere is a bit more casual, though thankfullynot the free-for-all it had been in the 18th century. Performers seemmore relaxed; their dress is often more laid-back, their body languagelooser.

When you'reseated in the concert hall, waiting for the downbeat, you don't havemuch time to read up on what you're about to hear. There's no wayyou could get through a chapter of cultural background on eachpiece, followed by a detailed technical analysis. You need notesthat, in a very few paragraphs, can set the scene for the composerand the composition, then provide just enough detail to help youfind your way through the music you are about to hear.Nancy's notes provide exactly that sort of guide. And now weare proud to present that guide in a format you can consult at yourleisure, and at your pleasure, particularly if you'd like on your ownto trace a composer's career more systematically than you can in asingle concert.
