Far... Beyond the Starry Sky

This book has several purposes. First, I intend to illustrate that Christianity can be a good foundation for a career in music. Second, I would like to mention and thank as many people as possible who have made positive contributions to my career. Third, I would like to provide a collection of stories (perhaps proverbs or parables) that could be useful to teachers. Fourth, I recognize now that my lifetime has seen historical revolution in the arts, finance, sex, marriage, military, politics, transportation, entertainment: practically every value we took for granted when I was a child has either been discarded or modified to the point where it is hardly recognizable. However, humanity still exists and with all its faults it is lovable and worth preserving. Oh, yes, I would also like this book to be enjoyable reading! Vernal E. Richardson

Wartime Journalism, 1939-1943

In occupied Belgium during World War II, Paul de Man (1919-1983) wrote music, lecture, and exhibition reviews, a regular book column, interviews, and articles on cultural politics for the Brussels daily newspaper Le Soir. From December 1940 until he resigned in November 1942, de Man contributed almost 200 articles to this and another newspaper, both then controlled by Nazi sympathizers and vocal advocates of the "new order." Later to become one of the most respected and influential literary theorists in America, de Man, then 21 and 22 years old, wrote primarily as the chief literary critic for Le Soir. His weekly column reviewed the latest novels and poetry from Belgium, France, Germany, and...

Sound Diplomacy

The German-American relationship was special long before the Cold War; it was rooted not simply in political actions, but also long-term traditions of cultural exchange that date back to the nineteenth century. Between 1850 and 1910, the United States was a rising star in the international arena, and several European nations sought to strengthen their ties to the republic by championing their own cultures in America. While France capitalized on its art and Britain on its social ties and literature, Germany promoted its particular breed of classical music. Delving into a treasure trove of archives that document cross-cultural interactions between America and Germany, Jessica Gienow-Hecht retr...

Joseph Jongen and His Organ Music

Joseph Jongen was Director of the Brussels Conservatoire from 1925 to 1939. He was first and foremost a composer and yet his career as an organist and composer of organ music was remarkable. His Sonata Ero�ca has become one of the enduring works of the repertory, and the Symphonie Concertante, commissioned by Rodman Wanamaker for the organ of the Philadelphia store, has been considered the finest of all twentieth-century organ concertos. This is the first book ever to appear about Joseph Jongen in any language. It is based on twenty years of research by its author, John Scott Whiteley. Part I traces Jongen's life and achievements as an organist,from his earliest training in Franck's birthp...
