A History of the Music for Wind Band

  • Publisher: LIT Verlag

The book provides a historical survey of the wind band’s music and denotes how historical and cultural developments have influenced it over the course of time. Although the modern wind band developed first in the 19th century, it has its roots in the wind music of ancient times, and music survives that has been composed since the Middle Ages. Therefore, this book covers the music from that time to the present, including the dance music of the Renaissance, the Harmoniemusik of the Classical Period, and the nationalistic music of the Romantic Period, as well as the major wind band repertoire developed after 1900.

Digital Humanities for Librarians

Digital Humanities For Librarians. Some librarians are born to digital humanities; some aspire to digital humanities; and some have digital humanities thrust upon them. Digital Humanities For Librarians is a one-stop resource for librarians and LIS students working in this growing new area of academic librarianship. The book begins by introducing digital humanities, addressing key questions such as, “What is it?”, “Who does it?”, “How do they do it?”, “Why do they do it?”, and “How can I do it?”. This broad overview is followed by a series of practical chapters answering those questions with step-by-step approaches to both the digital and the human elements of digital hum...

Carl Nielsen

Aldrig tilfreds, altid fremad! En af de allerstørste skikkelser i dansk musikliv var egensindig og nysgerrig, og så var han lige så engageret i at forny den folkelige sang som i at udvikle den store koncertmusik. Samtidig var han dybt optaget af en europæisk musiktradition og dens fornyelse. Carl Nielsen stræbte livet igennem efter at skabe musik med en umiddelbar evne til at kommunikere, og som passede til sit formål. Den største skønhed opstår, når tingen fuldstændig passer til sin funktion, mente han. "Carl Nielsen. En kulturhistorisk biografi" skildrer de mange områder, hvor Carl Nielsen var aktiv som musiker, komponist og kulturpersonlighed. Bogen er samtidig en indføring i den europæiske musikkultur og det københavnske kulturliv, som han var en del af og tog aktivt del i.

A team of experts view the relationship between rulers and their leading subjects across Europe and further afield. If God-derived authority legitimized a monarch’s rule, it did not necessarily prevent opposition to perceived arbitrary government as subjects put forward the counter-concept of consensual rule. The provincial elite might serve the ruler as advisors and officers at court but they also possessed an independent source of power based on their extensive estates. While monarchs wanted to perpetuate a system in which they could watch over members of the regional elite at court and keep them busy, they sought to make use of them as local and provincial administrators, that is, as long as they remained loyal: a fraught balancing act. Contributors include: Hélder Carvalhal, Peter Edwards, Jemma Field, Cailean Gallagher, Pedro José Herades-Ruiz, Graeme S. Millen, Vita Malašinskiené, Tibor Monostori, Steve Murdoch, David Potter, Peter S. Roberts, Irene Maria Vicente-Martin, and Matthias Wong.

Anna of Denmark

Approaching the Stuart courts through the lens of the queen consort, Anna of Denmark, this study is underpinned by three key themes: translating cultures, female agency and the role of kinship networks and genealogical identity for early modern royal women. Illustrated with a fascinating array of objects and artworks, the book follows a trajectory that begins with Anna’s exterior spaces before moving to the interior furnishings of her palaces, the material adornment of the royal body, an examination of Anna’s visual persona and a discussion of Anna’s performance of extraordinary rituals that follow her life cycle. Underpinned by a wealth of new archival research, the book provides a richer understanding of the breadth of Anna’s interests and the meanings generated by her actions, associations and possessions.

Musikedition im Zeichen neuer Medien

Die Keimzelle der Musikwissenschaft als geisteswissenschaftlicher Disziplin liegt in den Bemühungen des 19. Jahrhunderts, die Werke herausragender Komponisten zu konservieren und einer breiteren Öffentlichkeit zu erschließen. In diesem Umfeld erschien im Jahr 1851 der erste Band der Bach-Gesamtausgabe, herausgegeben von der Leipziger Bachgesellschaft. Alle nachfolgenden Musiker-Ausgaben entwickelten sich auf dieser Basis und reizten die Möglichkeiten des Buchmediums in zunehmenden Maße aus. Seit etwa zehn Jahren wird versucht, das Potential digitaler Medien für die Musikphilologie zu erschließen. Ausgehend von der Geschichte musikwissenschaftlicher Ausgaben und einer kritischen Reflektion des bisher Geleisteten, weist dieser Band mögliche neue Perspektiven für zukünftige, dem neuen Medium angemessene Editionsformen auf.
