Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the life, career, and legacy of Luigi Cherubini, a paramount figure in the development of Italian opera during the late 18th century. Cherubini made significant contributions to the field, transitioning from the lyrical style of the Neapolitan school to the more dramatic approach of French and German opera. His works, such as "Medea" and "Les Deux Journà es," became landmarks in the genre, praised for their grandeur, dramatic intensity, and innovative use of harmony and orchestration. The author explores the influence of Cherubini's music on subsequent composers, including Wagner, Berlioz, and Verdi, and argues that his theoretical treatises and teaching methods laid the foundation for modern music education. This book sheds light on the pivotal role Cherubini played in shaping the course of opera and music pedagogy.
