Puccinis Soundscapes (Paperback)
Language: English
Published by Casa Editrice Leo S.Olschki, Firenze, 2018
ISBN 10: 8822264479 ISBN 13: 9788822264473
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. From the bells in Tosca and the birdcalls in Madame Butterfly to the horns and sirens in Il tabarro and the music box melodies that inspired Turandot, Puccini's operas rely to an unprecedented degree on realistic and seemingly unmediated acoustic objects. Focusing on this pervasive if little discussed aspect of the composer's art, Puccini's Soundscapes uses the twin categories of sound and realism to rethink the shape of Puccini's career, and to offer new interpretations of many of his major works, as well as those of his contemporaries. It asks how Italian composers responded to some of the fundamental transformations of auditory culture during the fin-de-siecle, and resituates their works within the discourses (aesthetic, political, and technological) of Italian modernity. Proposing a dialogue between musicology and sound studies, Puccini's Soundscapes offers new ways of listening to major artistic movements from Naturalism to Futurism, and asks how late Romantic opera might contribute to a broader statement of the values of musical modernism. Puccinis operas rely to an unprecedented degree on unmediated sounds of theeveryday world (birdcalls, musical boxes and so on). By exploring the originsand limits of the composers realist acoustics Puccinis Soundscapes aims to rethinkthe shape of Puccinis career and reinterpret many of his major works.

Giacomo Puccini and His World
Book 15 of 26: The Bard Music FestivalLanguage: English
Published by Princeton University Press, US, 2016
ISBN 10: 0691172862 ISBN 13: 9780691172866
Paperback. Condition: New. Giacomo Puccini (1858-1924) is the world's most frequently performed operatic composer, yet he is only beginning to receive serious scholarly attention. In Giacomo Puccini and His World, an international roster of music specialists, several writing on Puccini for the first time, offers a variety of new critical perspectives on the composer and his works. Containing discussions of all of Puccini's operas from Manon Lescaut (1893) to Turandot (1926), this volume aims to move beyond cliches of the composer as a Romantic epigone and to resituate him at the heart of early twentieth-century musical modernity. This collection's essays explore Puccini's engagement with spoken theater and operetta, and with new technologies like photography and cinema. Other essays consider the philosophical problems raised by "realist" opera, discuss the composer's place in a variety of cosmopolitan formations, and reevaluate Puccini's orientalism and his complex interactions with the Italian fascist state.A rich array of primary source material, including previously unpublished letters and documents, provides vital information on Puccini's interactions with singers, conductors, and stage directors, and on the early reception of the verismo movement. Excerpts from Fausto Torrefranca's notorious Giacomo Puccini and International Opera, perhaps the most vicious diatribe ever directed against the composer, appear here in English for the first time. The contributors are Micaela Baranello, Leon Botstein, Alessandra Campana, Delia Casadei, Ben Earle, Elaine Fitz Gibbon, Walter Frisch, Michele Girardi, Arthur Groos, Steven Huebner, Ellen Lockhart, Christopher Morris, Arman Schwartz, Emanuele Senici, and Alexandra Wilson.

Puccini soundscapes: realism and modernity in italian opera.
Language: English
Published by Olschki Ed., Firenze,, 2016
ISBN 10: 8822264479 ISBN 13: 9788822264473
Condition: NUOVO. Firenze, Olschki Ed. cm.17x24, pp.X,180, brossura Collana Premio Rotary Giacomo Puccini Ricerca,2. Le opere di Puccini si basano sull'invenzione, senza precedenti, di oggetti sonori che sembrano tratti in modo immediato dalla realtà. Puccini's Soundscapes intende ripensare la carriera del compositore e reinterpretare molte delle sue opere maggiori attraverso l'esplorazione delle origini e dei confini del realismo sonoro. Più in generale, s'interroga sulle risposte dei compositori italiani ai mutamenti culturali dell'ascolto, propone un nuovo dialogo tra musicologia e studi sul suono, e un nuovo approccio alla modernità musicale.
