Inside the Ring: Essays on Wagner's Opera Cycle screenshot
English | 268 pages | McFarland (March 13, 2006) | 0786423307 | PDF | 15 MB
Once tainted by association with Hitler and Nazism, Richard Wagner's work has experienced an international cultural renaissance in the last 25 years. His magnum opus, Der Ring des Nibelungen, which took him over 20 years to finish, is a complex tale with themes of greed, corruption and loss, spun out in more than 16 hours of powerfully moving opera. This book, with provocative essays for both the uninitiated and the seasoned fan, examines Wagner's Ring cycle from a wide array of modern perspectives.

Making quality moving pictures has never been easier or more affordable, and the proliferation and ease of access to digital recording devices has prompted scores of amateurs to record and post videos to YouTube and its ilk. Paradoxically, however, scoring and arranging music for motion pictures is, in many ways, more complicated now than ever before, requiring extensive knowledge of notation, arranging, recording, and mixing software and multi-component DAW workstations.

The Art of Flamenco by Donn E. Pohren PDF [EN] screenshot
1967 | Society of Spanish Studies | ISBN: 9781499169058 | 17 MB | 312 Pages | PDF
Like The Lives And Legends Of Flamenco, also by Donn Pohren, this is an intensely fascinating account of the distinctive music of Andalusia, which in this case focuses much more on the culture, history and techniques of the art than on the biographies of individual artists.

In this sense, once again, this is a book that approaches its subject thoroughly and gives the impression of having been written by an initiate of sorts, although as Pohren hints, there are many layers of initiation in flamenco, and to be a true initiate one has to have been born into it: the land, the culture, and the music.

Music and Time: Psychology, Philosophy, Practice Edited by Michelle Phillips and Matthew Sergeant PDF/EPUB [EN] screenshot

How does music manifest through time and, simultaneously, how does time manifest through music?

For the experimental psychologist, the experience of time during music listening or performance is something that may be studied empirically. For philosophers, fundamental questions of time continue to be the subject of ongoing debate in philosophy: is time linear? What are past, present and future? What is duration and what makes a perceptual present, or moment? For the performer, musical time can exist as a subjective vehicle of expression. Although any of the three could be chosen as a starting point, the order presented in the text's structure offers a journey from empiricism to application, via contemplation.

Reading Time in Music: Temporally Vexed by Sarah Cash PDF/EPUB [EN] screenshot
2023 | Lexington Books | ISBN: 9781666903508 | PDF: 2.0 MB / EPUB: 1.6 MB | 192 Pages | PDF/EPUB
In this book, Sarah Cash examines the intersection of music and temporality in British literature of the long nineteenth century. The sound spaces created at these intersections function as antimimetic resistance to hegemonic structures. Through its temporal multiplicity, music resonates in excess of linear time, revealing a metaphoric soundedness in the text that subverts reader expectation and reveals how seemingly realist nineteenth-century novels transgress the limitations of their classic narratological structures.

English | 2024 | ISBN: 9780190672386 | 425 pages | True PDF EPUB | 22 MB
Itchycoo Park, 1964-1970--the second volume of Sixties British Pop, Outside In--explores how London songwriters, musicians, and production crews navigated the era's cultural upheavals by reimagining the pop-music envelope. As the generation born during the postwar years approached adulthood, they gravitated to music that resonated with their lives. Mainstream pop remained true to the basics, but some British artists conjured up sophisticated hybrid forms by recombining elements of jazz, folk, blues, Indian ragas, and western classical music while others returned to the raw essentials.

This expanded and updated edition, heavily illustrated, traces the development of Gypsy music during the long migration of professional Gypsy musicians from India to Spain and the decisive role of a small number of Gypsy families in Lower Andalusia in the development of flamenco music. The tragic history of the Gypsies’ forced settlement and repression is also covered.

Cultural Sustainabilities: Music, Media, Language, Advocacy Edited by Timothy J. Cooley PDF [EN] screenshot
2019 | University of Illinois Press | ISBN: 9780252051203 | 2.4 MB | 364 Pages | PDF
Environmental sustainability and human cultural sustainability are inextricably linked. Reversing damaging human impact on the global environment is ultimately a cultural question, and as with politics, the answers are often profoundly local. Timothy J. Cooley presents twenty-three essays by musicologists and ethnomusicologists, anthropologists, folklorists, ethnographers, documentary filmmakers, musicians, artists, and activists, each asking a particular question or presenting a specific local case study about cultural and environmental sustainability. Contributing to the environmental humanities, the authors embrace and even celebrate human engagement with ecosystems, though with a profound sense of collective responsibility created by the emergence of the Anthropocene.

How Language Speaks to Music: Prosody from a Cross-Domain Perspective Ed. by Mathias Scharinger and Richard Wiese EPUB [EN] screenshot
2022 | De Gruyter | ISBN: 9783110770186 | 3.5 MB | 274 Pages | EPUB
Prosody as a system of suprasegmental linguistic information such as rhythm and intonation is a prime candidate for looking at the relation between language and music in a principled way. This claim is based on several aspects:
First, prosody is concerned with acoustic correlates of language and music that are directly comparable with each other by their physical properties such as duration and pitch.
Second, prosodic accounts suggest a hierarchical organization of prosodic units that not only resembles a syntactic hierarchy, but is viewed as (part of) an interface to syntax.
Third, prosody provides a very promising ground for evolutionary accounts of language and music.
Fourth, bilateral transfer effects between language and music are best illustrated on the level of prosody.

This book summarizes the latest research on the origins of language, with a focus on the process of evolution and differentiation of language. It provides an update on the earlier successful book, “The Origins of Language” edited by Nobuo Masataka and published in 2008, with new content on emerging topics.
Drawing on the empirical evidence in each respective chapter, the editor presents a coherent account of how language evolved, how music differentiated from language, and how humans finally became neurodivergent as a species.
