A propos de ce titre

Synopsis

This stunning publication unearths the priceless scores at the heart of The Juilliard School’s unparalleled collection that has supported the education of performing artists for more than a century. Famed soprano Renée Fleming describes Juilliard School Library Music Manuscripts as a "map to the treasure” of one of the world’s finest collections of musical manuscripts.

This richly illustrated and elegantly designed book features masterpieces including the final manuscript of Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony, with revisions, corrections and alterations by the composer; the autographed manuscript of the final scene of Mozart’s The Marriage of Figaro; an extensively worked and autographed manuscript of the first movement of Mahler’s Ninth Symphony; Stravinsky's published scores with his own annotations; and holographs of Ysaÿe’s violin sonatas.

Delve into the amazing stories behind these unique manuscripts, sketches, engravers proofs and first editions by Bach, Brahms, Schumann and others. The accompanying texts are written by scholars and performers who convey the manuscripts' importance to music scholarship and the history of the performing arts.
