Tracktion Software Dawesome Myth v1.51 U2B Mac [MORiA] screenshot
MORiA | AUi | VST3i | 918.8 MB
MYTH was built to create the joy and inspiration we feel when playing with hardware. Instead of “programming” sounds you create sounds by exploration and tweaking. The sound is rich and organic, and the entire system acts like one organism. Re-synthesis. In classical synthesis, oscillator waves are mostly static and you add filters and modulators to "program" all the variations to make the sound organic and interesting. MYTH offers a paradigm shift: drag and drop audio and it will be re-synthesised as an IRIS. The inherent variations and richness of the sample can now be exploited with the TRANSFORMER dials. Of course - you can also add classical LFOs, envelopes or filters as much as you want. Just...you will rarely feel the need!

Music, Cosmology, and the Politics of Harmony in Early China-State by Erica Brindley EPUB screenshot
2012 | SUNY Press | ISBN: 9781438443140 | 700 KB | 237 Pages | EPUB
Explores the religious, political, and cultural significance attributed to music in early China.
In early China, conceptions of music became important culturally and politically. This fascinating book examines a wide range of texts and discourse on music during this period (ca. 500 100 BCE) in light of the rise of religious, protoscientific beliefs on the intrinsic harmony of the cosmos. By tracking how music began to take on cosmic and religious significance, Erica Fox Brindley shows how music was used as a tool for such enterprises as state unification and cultural imperialism.

Chinese and Japanese Music-Dramas by J. I. Crump EPUB screenshot
1975 | University of Michigan Center for Chinese Studies | ISBN: 9780472901371 | 7.5 MB | 255 Pages | EPUB
Chinese and Japanese Music-Dramas is the result of a conference on the relations between Chinese and Japanese music-drama held at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, on October 1–4, 1971. In addition to the Association for Asian Studies, four U-M departments participated in the conference: the Center for Japanese Studies, the Center for Chinese Studies, the School of Music, and the Speech Department. One important inspiration for the creation of such an interdisciplinary conference was the fact that each participant had found, after years of individual research on music-drama in East Asia, consistent frustration caused by attempts to deal on their own with multiple cultural and technical problems. Another motivating force was an awareness among many members of the four disciplines involved that the topic is in fact one of the largest untouched fields of scholarly endeavor in both Asian and theatrical studies.

Bad Vibrations. The History of the Idea of Music as a Cause of Disease by James Kennaway PDF screenshot
2016 | Routledge | ISBN: 9781315568621 | 1.85 MB | 226 Pages | PDF
Music has been used as a cure for disease since as far back as King David's lyre, but the notion that it might be a serious cause of mental and physical illness was rare until the late eighteenth century. At that time, physicians started to argue that excessive music, or the wrong kind of music, could over-stimulate a vulnerable nervous system, leading to illness, immorality and even death. Since then there have been successive waves of moral panics about supposed epidemics of musical nervousness, caused by everything from Wagner to jazz and rock 'n' roll.

Music as Medicine: The History of Music Therapy Since Antiquity by Peregrine Horden PDF screenshot
2000 | Ashgate/Routledge | ISBN: 9781315090894 | 15.7 MB | 416 Pages | PDF
Music, whether performed or heard, has been seen as therapeutic in the history of many cultures. How have its therapeutic properties been conceptualized and explained? Which cultures have used music therapy? What were their aims and techniques, and how much continuity is there between ancient, medieval and modern practice? These are the questions addressed by the essays in this volume. They focus on the place of music therapy in European intellectual, medical and musical traditions, from their classical roots to the development of the music therapy profession since the Second World War.

A Musicology of Performance: Theory and Method Based On Bach's Solos for Violin by Dorottya Fabian EPUB screenshot
2015 | Open Book Publishers | ISBN: 9781783741557 | 4.49 MB | 342 Pages | EPUB
This book examines the nature of musical performance. In it, Dorottya Fabian explores the contributions and limitations of some of these approaches to performance, be they theoretical, cultural, historical, perceptual, or analytical. Through a detailed investigation of recent recordings of J. S. Bach’s Six Sonatas and Partitas for Solo Violin, she demonstrates that music performance functions as a complex dynamical system. Only by crossing disciplinary boundaries, therefore, can we put the aural experience into words. A Musicology of Performance provides a model for such a method by adopting Deleuzian concepts and various empirical and interdisciplinary procedures.

Music and the Making of Modern Science by Peter Pesic PDF screenshot
2014 | MIT Press | ISBN: 9780262543903 | 7.20 MB | 360 Pages | PDF
A wide-ranging exploration of how music has influenced science through the ages, from fifteenth-century cosmology to twentieth-century string theory.
In the natural science of ancient Greece, music formed the meeting place between numbers and perception; for the next two millennia, Peter Pesic tells us in Music and the Making of Modern Science, “liberal education” connected music with arithmetic, geometry, and astronomy within a fourfold study, the quadrivium. Pesic argues provocatively that music has had a formative effect on the development of modern science—that music has been not just a charming accompaniment to thought but a conceptual force in its own right.

Animal Musicalities: Birds, Beasts, and Evolutionary Listening by Rachel Mundy EPUB screenshot
2018 | Wesleyan University Press | ISBN: 9780819578082 | 6.78 MB | 264 Pages | EPUB
How conflicts between science and the humanities have shaped our understanding of the line between art and animal behavior
Over the past century and a half, the voices and bodies of animals have been used by scientists and music experts as a benchmark for measures of natural difference. Animal Musicalities traces music's taxonomies from Darwin to digital bird guides to show how animal song has become the starting point for enduring evaluations of species, races, and cultures. By examining the influential efforts made by a small group of men and women to define human diversity in relation to animal voices, this book raises profound questions about the creation of modern human identity, and the foundations of modern humanism.
