Excerpt: Felix August Bernhard Draeseke (October 7, 1835 February 26, 1913) was a composer of the "New German School" admiring Liszt and Richard Wagner. He wrote compositions in most forms including eight operas and stage works, four symphonies, and much vocal and chamber music. Felix Draeseke was born in the Franconian ducal town of Coburg, Germany. He was attracted to music early in life and wrote his first composition at age 8. He encountered no opposition from his family when, in his mid-teens, he declared his intention of becoming a professional musician. A few years at the Leipzig conservatory did not seem to benefit his development, but after one of the early performances of Wagner's Lohengrin he was won to the camp of the New German School centered around Franz Liszt at Weimar, where he stayed from 1856 (arriving just after Joachim Raff's departure) to 1861. In 1862 Draeseke left Germany and made his way to Switzerland, teaching in the Suisse Romande in the area around Lausanne. Upon his return to Germany in 1876, Draeseke chose Dresden as his place of residence. Though he continued having success in composition, it was only in 1884 that he received an official appointment to the Dresden conservatory and, with it, some financial security. In 1894, two years after his promotion to a professorship at the Royal Saxon Conservatory, at the age of 58, he married his former pupil Frida Neuhaus. In 1912 he completed his final orchestral work, the Fourth Symphony. On February 26, 1913, Draeseke suffered a stroke and died; he is buri...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=780180 ... Read more

Extrait : Hermann Scherchen, (Berlin 21 juin 1891) - (Florence 12 juin 1966) est un chef d'orchestre allemand Fils d'aubergiste, né dans un quartier ouvrier de Berlin, Hermann Scherchen, très vite passionné par la musique, connaîtra les chemins de traverse d'un autodidacte. Jeune, il apprend à jouer de l'alto et devient altiste dès l'âge de seize ans. De 1907 à 1910 il joue régulièrement avec l'Orchestre Blüthner et, temporairement, avec l'Orchestre Philharmonique de Berlin. C'est sa rencontre, en 1911 avec Arnold Schoenberg, dont il est assistant pour préparer la création du Pierrot Lunaire, qui change tout. L'œuvre intéresse Scherchen par bien des points. Écrite dans une atonalité libre, annonçant l'atonalité ordonnée du sérialisme, elle s'inscrit dans un nouveau monde musical, cassant avec les théories classiques. Grand érudit, ayant étudié pratiquement toutes les dernières recherches musicologiques, Hermann Scherchen se reconnaît pleinement dans ces audaces et devient alors l'un des plus fervents défenseurs des créateurs contemporains. Le "Pierrot lunaire" est créé à Berlin le 16 octobre 1912 par Schoen...http://booksllc.net/?l=fr ... Read more

Webster's bibliographic and event-based timelines are comprehensive in scope, covering virtually all topics, geographic locations and people. They do so from a linguistic point of view, and in the case of this book, the focus is on "Boris Blacher," including when used in literature (e.g. all authors that might have Boris Blacher in their name). As such, this book represents the largest compilation of timeline events associated with Boris Blacher when it is used in proper noun form. Webster's timelines cover bibliographic citations, patented inventions, as well as non-conventional and alternative meanings which capture ambiguities in usage. These furthermore cover all parts of speech (possessive, institutional usage, geographic usage) and contexts, including pop culture, the arts, social sciences (linguistics, history, geography, economics, sociology, political science), business, computer science, literature, law, medicine, psychology, mathematics, chemistry, physics, biology and other physical sciences. This "data dump" results in a comprehensive set of entries for a bibliographic and/or event-based timeline on the proper name Boris Blacher, since editorial decisions to include or exclude events is purely a linguistic process. The resulting entries are used under license or with permission, used under "fair use" conditions, used in agreement with the original authors, or are in the public domain. ... Read more
