César Franck by Robert James Stove Pdf

C sar Franck (1822-1890), Belgian born and French domiciled, was one of the most remarkable composers of the 19th century. A number of his works are commonly recorded--such as his Symphony in D Minor, Symphonic Variations, Violin Sonata, and the ever-popular Panis Angelicus--and yet 38 years have elapsed since a biography of him appeared in English. Now with C sar Franck: His Life and Times, R. J. Stove fills this gap in the history of late 19th-century classical music with a full-length study of the man and his music. Drawing on sources never before cited in English, Stove paints a far more detailed picture of this great musician and deeply loved man, whose influence in both his native and adopted lands was exceptional. Stove carefully delves into intimate matters of Franck's life, including his resilience in the face of his exploitation as a child prodigy at the piano, his development from a shy and harassed piano teacher into one of the most sought-after luminaries of Paris's Conservatoire, and the truth behind Franck's alleged affair with one of his students. Throughout his study, Stove interweaves panoramic surveys of the political and social scene in Belgium and France, contextualizing Franck's achievements in his historical milieu, from his rise as a recognized master of the organ to his dealings with significant composers such as Liszt, Gounod, Saint-Sa ns, Massenet, Chabrier, and others. C sar Franck: His Life and Times is an engagingly written biography sure to interest classical music listeners of all stripes.

Cesar Franck Selected Piano Compositions by Gail Smith Pdf

To describe the music of César Franck is like trying to describe a delicious dessert; you must experience it for yourself! Although everyone has their own preference, the music of César Franck is continually inspiring for the listener or performer. Most of the selections in this book are unknown, preserved by Frank's biographer and former student, Vincent D’Indy, and are best suited for intermediate to advanced students. For composers, finding the recipe for each of the ten pieces is a musical treasure hunt. Composed by Frank at the age of twelve, the "Earliest Composition" is a wonderful example of counterpoint. “Canon” moves from the left to the right hand while the harmonizing melody becomes its own canon with respect to the original melody. Readers may also be familiar with “Les Plaintes d’Une Poupee” (or “The Puppets Complaint”); one of Franck's more well-known compositions. “Danse Lente” has a lovely melody that changes hands, culminating with the two melodies uniting in a dreamy, dramatic sense. These piano selections are presented as examples of César Franck’s legacy for piano teachers and students of all ages. This collection will be valuable for recitals, programs, and your own enjoyment. Includes access to online audio of the author performing each piece.

The French Symphony at the Fin de Siècle by Andrew Deruchie Pdf

In this first full-length study of the symphony in late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century France, Andrew Deruchie provides extended critical discussion of seven of the most influential and frequently performed works of the era, by Camille Saint-Sa ns, C sar Franck, douard Lalo, Vincent d'Indy, and Paul Dukas. The volume explores how these symphonists modernized the art form yet preserved many of the formal and rhetorical conventions of the canon, reconciling, in particular, Beethoven's symphonic legacy with the musical culture, intellectual environment, and political milieu of fin-de-si cle France. Drawing on contemporary criticism, music histories, composers' prose, and unpublished sketches, Deruchie's readings offer fresh insights on issues of musical form and technique, and also move beyond the notes to consider questions of meaning. Andrew Deruchie is a lecturer in musicology at the University of Otago (New Zealand).
