Le livre consiste d'articles Wikipedia sur : Symphonie En Ré Mineur de César Franck, Prélude, Fugue et Variation, Prélude, Choral et Fugue, le Chasseur Maudit, Trois Chorals, Les Djinns, Sonate Pour Violon et Piano de César Franck, Final. Non illustré. Mises à jour gratuites en ligne. Extrait : La Symphonie en ré mineur est l'œuvre orchestrale la plus connue de César Franck, compositeur belge du siècle. Il s'agit de son unique symphonie, composée entre 1886 et 1888 (elle a été terminée le 22 août 1888). La première a été donnée au Conservatoire de Paris le 17 février 1889. César Franck a dédié cette symphonie à son élève Henri Duparc. La renommée et la réputation de César Franck reposent essentiellement sur quelques compositions, toutes composées vers la fin de sa vie et dont la symphonie en ré mineur fait partie ; la première a eu lieu un an seulement avant la mort du compositeur en 1890. Le fait que Franck ait choisi d'écrire une symphonie est en lui-même peu commun étant donné la rareté de cette forme de composition musicale dans la tradition classique française du siècle, qui considérait la symphonie comme une spécificité allemande. Il est probable que la genèse de cette œuvre soit consécutive au succès de ses influentes "Variations symphoniques pour piano et orchestre" composées en 1885. De plus, le succès de plusieurs œuvres d'autres compositeurs français a favorisé un regain de la forme symphonique dans la faveur du public français. La Symphonie n° 3 de Camille Saint-Saëns et la Symphonie sur un chant montagnard français de Vincent d'Indy, toutes deux écrites en 1886 avaient reçu un bon accueil de la part du public et avaient favorisé le retour de la symphonie comme morceau de concert, ce qui n'était plus le cas depuis la Symphonie fantastique d'Hector Ber...http://booksllc.net/?l=fr ...

Excerpt: Leopold II (French: , Dutch: ) (9 April 1835 17 December 1909) was King of the Belgians. Born in Brussels the second (but eldest surviving) son of Leopold I and Louise-Marie of Orléans, he succeeded his father to the throne in 1865 and remained king until his death. He was the brother of Empress Carlota of Mexico and first cousin to Queen Victoria of the United Kingdom. Leopold is chiefly remembered as the founder and sole owner of the Congo Free State, a private project undertaken by the King. He used Henry Morton Stanley to help him lay claim to the Congo, an area now known as the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The Powers at Berlin Conference agreed to set up the Free State in 1885, on condition that the inhabitants were to be brought into the modern world and that all nations be allowed to trade freely. From the beginning, however, Leopold essentially ignored these conditions and ran the Congo brutally, by proxy through a mercenary force, for his own personal gain. He extracted a personal fortune from the Congo, initially by the collection of ivory, and after a rise in the price of rubber in the 1890s by forcing the native population to collect sap from rubber plants. His harsh regime was directly or indirectly responsible for the death of millions of people. The Congo became one of the most infamous international scandals of the early 20th century, and Leopold was ultimately forc...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=57731 ... Read more

The company primarily produces operas at its modern theatre Opéra Bastille which opened in 1989, and ballets at the older Palais Garnier which opened in 1875. Front of the Palais Garnier illuminated at night Pierre PerrinOn 28 June 1669 Louis XIV granted a 12-year privilege to Pierre Perrin to set up the Académie dOpéra for the performance of operas in French. He was charged with making opera better known to the public not only in Paris but in the other towns and cities of the kingdom of France. Since its only financial resources came from box-office receipts without a royal subsidy, the Opéra was granted the privilege of putting on "pièces de théâtre en musique", with a ban on anyone else doing the same without gaining authorization from its owners.

Er hatte einen jüngeren Bruder, Alain. Sein Vater Pierre Messiaen war Englischprofessor und arbeitete ab 1919 über drei Jahrzehnte lang an einer Übersetzung der Werke von William Shakespeare, ein Umstand, der den jungen Olivier maßgeblich beeinflusste. Als Jugendlicher las er Shakespeare in der Übersetzung von Jean-Baptiste Joseph Émile Montégut. Die Schilderung menschlicher Leidenschaften sowie die von Fabelwesen, Hexen und Gespenstern bevölkerte märchenhaft magische Welt Shakespeares faszinierten ihn. „Ich orientierte mich an Märchen, und Shakespeare ist manchma...http://booksllc.net/?l=de&id=50752 ...

L'hôtel Grady (à gauche sur la photo), maison natale de César-Auguste Franck, construite de 1780 à 1785, située rue Sainte-Croix à Liège.Sa mère est née à Aix-la-Chapelle, son père, Nicolas-Joseph, au village de Gemmenich au duché de Limbourg (actuellement en Belgique, près de la frontière allemande et néerlandaise). En 1830, son père l'inscrit au Conservatoire de Liège où il remporte, en 1834, les grands prix de solfège et de piano. De 1833 à 1835, il fait des études d'harmonie chez Joseph Daussoigne, un neveu d'Étienne Nicolas Méhul (1763-1817), qui a enseigné au Conservatoire de Paris. Encouragé par ses succès musicaux, son père organise, au printemps 1835, une série de concerts à Liège, à Bruxelles et à Aix-la-Chapelle. La même année, la famille déménage à Paris. César devient à cette occasion l'élève d'Antoine Reicha (le professeur de Berlioz, Liszt et Gounod). Entré au conservatoire de Paris en 1837, il remporte d'abord, en 1838, le premier prix de piano de manière extraordinaire, comme le relate la presse de l'époque : « Après avoir décerné tout d'une voix le premier prix à M. Franck, le jury est de nouveau entré en délibération, et M. Cherubini est venu dire : "Le jury ayant décidé que M.

Excerpt: César Franck -House Grady in Liège, where César Franck was bornFranck was born in Liège, then part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands (today Belgium) to a father from the German-Belgian border and a German mother. His father had ambitions for him to become a concert pianist, and he studied at the conservatoire in Liège before going to the Paris Conservatoire in 1838 after private studies with Anton Reicha for a year. Upon leaving in 1842 he briefly returned to Belgium, but went back to Paris in 1844 and remained there for the rest of his life. His decision to give up a career as a virtuoso led to strained relations with his father during this time. During his first years in Paris, Franck made his living by teaching, both privately and institutionally. He also held various posts as organist: from 1847 to 1851 he was organist at Notre-Dame-de-Lorette, and from 1851 to 1858 he was organist at Saint-Jean-Saint-François-au-Marais. During this time he became familiar with the French romantic organs being built by the famous builder Aristide Cavaillé-Coll, as well as the fingering and pedal performance techniques taught by the Belgian organist Jacques-Nicholas Lemmons. Inspired by the performance and compositional possibilities opened by these innovations, he worked on expanding his own technique as an organist and improviser.
