MSN Encarta - Popular Music The most popular songs in America during the late 18th century, as judged by reported sales of printed music, were written by professional English composers for performance in London parks (known as pleasure gardens) or for performance in English ballad and comic opera. A new youth-oriented popular market was defined by a broad category of rock music that included the influential studio experiments of the Beatles, San Francisco psychedelia, guitar heroes such as Jimi Hendrix and Eric Clapton, Southern rock, hard rock, jazz rock, folk rock, and other styles. Composers were hired to rapidly produce popular songs by the dozens, and the techniques of Foster and the pleasure-garden composers were further developed. encarta.msn.com /encyclopedia_761551614/Popular_Music.html   (1519 words)

Introduction to E.T.A Hoffmann Only a few of Hoffmann's later works and major novels which belong to the category of fantastic satirical novels, such as Kater Murr, Prinzessin Brambilla, Klein Zaches and Meister Floh, were translated into English. Whilst Hoffmann's complete works have been translated many times in France and proved strongly influential on French writers, particularly in the 1830s and 1840s, Hoffmann is only known in extracts in the English speaking world. There is also an absence of his wide range of musical writings, which include musical criticism, short stories about composers and musicians, and about art and music in general. www.petra.demon.co.uk /Hoffmann/introduction.html   (39 words)

Newberry Library English Manuscripts The parameters for this inventory are fairly wide: included are all manuscripts in the Case, Wing and Graff collections which are either in English of by English or American authors (a category that here includes composers, writing-masters, translations, and even, in some cases, subjects of legal documents). The aim of this Checklist is to provide an introduction to those manuscripts in English in the Newberry Library produced between 1500 and 1865. Pre-1500 or “medieval” manuscripts are listed by Saenger and are on the on-line catalogue (available only at the Newberry Library); post-1865 manuscripts largely form part of the Modern Manuscripts collection and so are separately inventoried; for manuscripts in the Ayer collection, the reader should consult Butler and the on-line catalogue. www.newberry.org /nl/collections/engmss.html   (1527 words)

Michael Carter on Apt.Org... The Story of Joseph Boulogne Dawson -- along with José White, William Grant Still, George Theophilus Walker, and many others -- forms part of a long line of African-American composers and performers whose classical music heritage and artistic ancestors included an African-English composer and conductor named Samuel Coleridge-Taylor. Some of these compositions were written by jazz artists like Duke Ellington, whose suite entitled The River, falls into a category that the music industry refers to as "crossover". But the name that first comes to mind when one thinks of a purely classical African-American composer is that of William Levi Dawson (1899-1990), the former head of the Department of Music at Tuskegee Institute (now Tuskegee University) in Alabama. www.wual.ua.edu /carter_page_01.asp   (1527 words)

Amazon.co.uk: Seven [a Suite for Orchestra]: Music These seven suites puts him in a category with all of them. The music is for people who can paint their own pictures in their minds and apply it to their own dramas in their lives and develop their own stories and end their stories the way they want to: Profoundly different from a movie/film score and in keeping with the great classical composers. The piece lies firmly within the pastoral English tradition of Elgar, Vaughan Williams and Gerald Finzi, the lush orchestration (by Simon Hale) often infused with melancholy and soaring with a haunted intensity. www.amazon.co.uk /exec/obidos/ASIN/B0001M0A4I   (1537 words)
