East Meets West
The waning years of the Russian Empire witnessed the development of a rich tradition of trumpet playing. Noted trumpet scholar and performer Edward Tarr's latest book illuminates this tradition, which is little known in the West. Tarr's extensive research in hitherto inaccessible Russian archives has uncovered many documents that illuminate the careers of noted performers. These documents are reproduced here for the first time. A concise chronological summary of Russian political and musical developments provides an effective backdrop for this inventory of trumpeters. The author ably demonstrates how profoundly Russian trumpet-playing and pedagogy were influenced by emigrées, particularly f...
The Trumpet
In the first major book devoted to the trumpet in more than two decades, John Wallace and Alexander McGrattan trace the surprising evolution and colorful performance history of one of the world's oldest instruments. They chart the introduction of the trumpet and its family into art music, and its rise to prominence as a solo instrument, from the Baroque "golden age," through the advent of valved brass instruments in the nineteenth century, and the trumpet's renaissance in the jazz age. The authors offer abundant insights into the trumpet's repertoire, with detailed analyses of works by Haydn, Handel, and Bach, and fresh material on the importance of jazz and influential jazz trumpeters for the reemergence of the trumpet as a solo instrument in classical music today. Wallace and McGrattan draw on deep research, lifetimes of experience in performing and teaching the trumpet in its various forms, and numerous interviews to illuminate the trumpet's history, music, and players. Copiously illustrated with photographs, facsimiles, and music examples throughout, The Trumpet will enlighten and fascinate all performers and enthusiasts [Publisher description].
Music of the past, instruments and imagination
Ce volume présente les délibérations des Deuxièmes Rencontres Internationales harmoniques du printemps 2004. Les conférences ont été données par des experts des instruments à claviers et des cuivres. L'accent a été mis sur une variété de traditions historiques de facture instrumentale et sur l'histoire du renouveau de l'utilisation d'instruments anciens. Les contributions traitent non seulement des paramètres des pratiques instrumentales, mais encore de l'inspiration donnée dans ces domaines par quelques pionniers du renouveau de la musique ancienne. Dans bien des cas, les auteurs se sont penchés plus spécialement sur l'interprétation de la musique de Johann Sebastian Bach....

Mirabelle
Was ist, wenn man sich durch einen einzigen Anruf einer Frau die Pläne für den Sommer durcheinanderbringen lässt? Torben Kühne, Protagonist dieses Romans, Student an der hiesigen Musikhochschule, kurz vor dem Diplom, lässt sich breitschlagen und sitzt wochenlang als Aushilfe an einem PC, muss den Straßenlärm ertragen und manchmal auch eine Abgaswolke, die durch die Tür in den Laden zieht. An der gegenüberliegenden Bushaltestelle lernt er Chantal kennen. Chantal versteht es, Torben Kühne zu dirigieren. Er wehrt sich, beendet die Beziehung, die ohnehin keine war und versucht es mit Mirabelle. Mirabelle, die Wunderbare. Es passieren Dinge, womit Torben Kühne nicht gerechnet hat, sein Leben als Student gerät durcheinander, dabei will er sich eigentlich auf die Musik konzentrieren.
Fanfares and Finesse
“A concise guide linking the history of trumpet to performance . . . includes information on band music, bugle calls, orchestral repertoire, and jazz.” —American Reference Books Annual Unlike the violin, which has flourished largely unchanged for close to four centuries, the trumpet has endured numerous changes in design and social status from the battlefield to the bandstand and ultimately to the concert hall. This colorful past is reflected in the arsenal of instruments a classical trumpeter employs during a performance, sometimes using no fewer than five in different keys and configurations to accurately reproduce music from the past. With the rise in historically inspired performan...
