Synopsis

Style in Musical Art is a book written by Charles Hubert Hastings Parry in 1900. The book explores the different styles of music in the Western classical tradition, including the Baroque, Classical, and Romantic periods. Parry discusses the characteristics of each style, as well as the historical and cultural context in which they emerged. He also analyzes the works of notable composers such as Bach, Mozart, and Beethoven, and provides examples of their music to illustrate his points. Throughout the book, Parry emphasizes the importance of understanding musical style in order to fully appreciate and interpret classical music. Style in Musical Art is a valuable resource for music students, scholars, and enthusiasts who wish to deepen their understanding of the evolution of Western classical music.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Chapters are for the most part founded on Lectures delivered in accordance with the regulations which prescribe the duties of the Professor of Music ofO xford University. The scheme was devised at the beginning of the tenure of the Professorship in order to give continuity and coherence to a series extending over many years. But a breakdown in health, which was the result of trying to keep too many lines of work in hand at once, entailed the resignation of the Professorship before the series was completed. The present volume is intended to represent the scheme in its entirety. In recognition of the fact that the style that is fit for a lecture is not fit to be read, the originals have been for the most part rewritten, several lectures have been omitted as unnecessary in the changed conditions, and chapters which cover the ground originally planned have been added.
