A propos de cet article

Pale yellow cloth boards with black lettering; yellow and black illustrated dj, mylar cover; x, 289 pp; bw illustrations and music. "This first English-language volume of musicological essays on Richard Strauss places the German composer in the musical mainstream and situates him among the most influential composers of the late-nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries. Comprehensive and interdisciplinary in approach, this volume examines Strauss's life and work from a number of approaches and during various periods of his eighty-five-year creative life, a career that spanned one of the most remarkable stretches of modern German cultural and political history. The contributors discuss Strauss as a young composer steeped in a conservative instrumental tradition; as a brash young modernist tone poet of the 1890s; as an important composer of twentieth-century German opera; and as a cultural icon manipulated by the national socialists during the 1930s and early 1940s. Other essays compare Strauss and such contemporaries as Mahler and discuss recently discovered sources that shed important light on Strauss's late period of composition. Using Strauss's creative works as a framework for posing larger musicological questions, various themes recur throughout these essays: the tension between narrative and structure in program music and how that problem is reflected in musical analysis; the problem of extended tonality at the turn of the century; the issue of stylistic choice versus stylistic obligation; and new perspectives on progressive versus conservative from the standpoint of postmodernism."-dust jacket. Contents include: Strauss before Liszt and Wagner : some observations / R. Larry Todd -- Miners digging from opposite sides : Mahler, Strauss, and the problem of program music / Stephen E. Hefling -- Extended tonality in Mahler and Strauss / Kofi Agawu -- Ironic allusions to Italian opera in the musical comedies of Richard Strauss / Reinhold Schlötterer -- Strauss and the National Socialists : the debate and its relevance / Pamela M.
