Product Description
Attractive, authoritative editions of two great standards for cello and orchestra: "Kol Nidrei: Adagio on Hebrew Melodies," Op. 47 is wonderfully lyrical and musically straightforward; Bloch’s "Schelomo: Rhapsodie hebraique" is complex and passionate, reflecting the composer’s highly individual style. Instrumentation. Note.

BOO! Gotcha!
I've always enjoyed a little spooky stuff just before heading off to bed.
Leave the light on, and try not to think about that strange looking paw-like shadow over by the closet door.

Non illustré. Mises à jour gratuites en ligne. Extrait : Émile Jaques-Dalcroze est un compositeur, pédagogue et chansonnier suisse né le 6 juillet 1865 à Vienne et mort le 1 juillet 1950 à Genève. Créateur de la méthode de Rythmique qui porte son nom. Établi à Genève depuis 1875, Jaques-Dalcroze y accomplit sa scolarité et ses premières études musicales. Il se perfectionne ensuite à Paris avec Talbot pour l'art dramatique et Lavignac pour la musique, puis à Vienne avec Anton Bruckner, puis à nouveau à Paris avec Leo Delibes, Mathis Lussy et Gabriel Fauré. Déjà durant ses années d'études, il avait révélé des dons certains de créateur, produisant de nombreuses compositions. Entre 1892 et 1910, il enseigne au Conservatoire de Genève. La pédagogie prend alors peu à peu une place prépondérante dans ses préoccupations. Constatant les lacunes de ses élèves dans le domaine du rythme, il imagine un mode d'enseignement par la musique et pour la musique, prenant en compte la perception physique de la musique : la rythmique, fondée sur la musicalité du mouvement. Il questionne les rapports entre musique et mouvement, notamment à travers les interactions « temps - espace - énergie ». Sa démarche est au cœur de nombreuses démarches artistiques (musique, danse, théâtre...) mais aussi thérapeutiques (psychomotricité, handicap). Grâce à Mary Wigman, élève de Jaques-Dalcroze et initiatrice de la « danse...http://booksllc.net/?l=fr ... Read more

Excerpt: Ernest Bloch (July 24, 1880 July 15, 1959) was a Swiss-born American composer. Bloch was born in Geneva and began playing the violin at age 9. He began composing soon afterwards. He studied music at the conservatory in Brussels, where his teachers included the celebrated Belgian violinist Eugène Ysaÿe. He then travelled around Europe, moving to Germany (where he studied composition from 1900-1901 with Iwan Knorr at the Hoch Conservatory in Frankfurt), on to Paris in 1903 and back to Geneva before settling in the United States in 1916, taking American citizenship in 1924. He held several teaching appointments in the U.S., with George Antheil, Frederick Jacobi, Bernard Rogers, and Roger Sessions among his pupils. In December 1920 he was appointed the first Musical Director of the newly formed Cleveland Institute of Music, a post he held until 1925. Following this he was director of the San Francisco Conservatory of Music until 1930. In 1941 Bloch moved to the small coastal community of Agate Beach, Oregon and lived there the rest of his life. He died in 1959 in Portland, Oregon, of cancer at the age of 78. The Bloch Memorial has been moved from near his house in Agate Beach to a more prominent location at the Newport Performing Arts Center in Newport, Oregon. Bloch's early works, including his opera Macbeth (1910) show the influence of both the Germanic school of Richard Strauss and the impressionism of Claude Debussy. Mature works, including his best-known pieces, often draw on Jewish liturgical and folk music. These works include Schelomo (1916) for cello and orchestra, which he dedicated to the cellist Alexandre Barjansky (of Barjansky Stradivarius fame), the Israel Symphony (1916), Baal Shem for violin and piano (1923, later version for vio...

Excerpt:Coquelle Thompson (ca. 1848-1946) was a Coquille Indian from the U.S. state of Oregon who was a cultural and linguistic consultant to at least six important anthropologists over the course of his long life. Born the son of a chief of the Upper Coquille Indians, he was among the several hundred Indians from southwestern Oregon who were removed by ship from Port Orford to the Coastal Indian Reservation in June 1856. His is the only Indian eye-witness account of that removal. He grew up and lived on the Siletz Reservation , serving for decades as a member of the tribal police force. In 1873, Coquelle Thompson attended a version of the Ghost Dance of 1870 held at Corvallis, Oregon , and later he attended a dance of the California Earth Lodge at Upper Farm, Siletz Reservation. He soon became a convert to a version of the Ghost Dance known at Siletz as the Warm House Dance, and proselytized along the Oregon Coast as far south as Coos Bay . His version became known as the Thompson Warm House Dance. He was married three times and had eleven children, all of whom died before adulthood except two, who married and have descendants to the present day.

Fils de Francisca et de François Vibert (avocat puis chef de la police genevoise), Mathieu Vibert naît à Carouge le 15 décembre 1920. Il aura une soeur cadette, Claudine. Il reçoit son premier violon à l'âge de 5 ans et en jouera jusqu'à 26 ans, date de la création de son Concerto pour violon. C'est dans l'atelier de sculpteur de son oncle James Vibert que Mathieu, enfant puis adolescent, est conforté dans son désir de devenir artiste. Après quelques années à l'école Jacques-Dalphin de Carouge, il entre au collège Calvin de Genève. Ses études lui donneront le goût de la littérature. Il écrit des poèmes, des romans et hésite à devenir écrivain. Mais Mathieu Vibert veut dire l'indicible, décide de se diriger vers la musique et brûle tout ce qu'il a écrit.
