C U RT I SS P FAC R E E . “ HE present volume , The Standard Light ” h as Operas , been prepared not only with the hope that it may supply a popular want in these days when the light opera is so much in vogue, but also with the purpose of completing the series which the author has already compiled , including and the opera, oratorio , cantata, symphony . It has been somewhat difficult to select from the “ em ” barrassment of riches in the material offered by the profusion of operettas, musical comedies , and legitimate light operas which have been produced s h during the la t few years, and w ich are still turned a out with lmost bewildering rapidity . Still more difficult is it to determine accurately those among them which are standard . A few of the lighter works which are contained in the original edition of “ ” a a h as the St nd rd Operas ave been rec t , as they properly belong in a work of this kind , and as they may answer the needs of those who have not the former volume . The opera comique and the opera bouffe are also represented by the best of their l a c ass, those whose text is clearly objection ble being PREFA CE . l a omitted . The entire ist of the ch racteristic and de lightful Operettas by the late Sir Alexander Sullivan is and s e included, some of the mu ical comedi s a a a which h ve strong hold upon popul r admiration . The operas have not been analyzed with that close ness of d etail which characterizes the Standard e as as do n Of a Op r , they not call for treatme t th t a a s ea n e kind , and in m ny c se the l ding umb rs are e only suggested . They are describ d rather than and as e for criticised , they have been compiled sol ly the use of the general public they have been pre sented as untechnicall y as possible . They are in tended to h eighten popular enjoyment rather than o a s a s and wade to supply inf rm tion for mu ici n , as a mecum for the op era- goer rather than a reference for the musical student .

  • TEXTOS PRELIMINARES Nota Preambular Resumo Abstract 1
    TEXTOS PRELIMINARES Nota preambular Resumo Abstract 1. ÍNDICES 1.1. Índice de quadros 1.2. Índice de figuras TEXTOS PRELIMINARES Nota preambular Há duas considerações que, antecipadamente, ajudarão a entender a razão desta nota: - A primeira, começa no dito popular que afirma ‘nunca é tarde para aprender’ e por isso se julga motivo de desencanto o desperdício de oportunidades, não só pela fatia que se deixa de saborear, daí o entorpecimento, mas ainda pela implícita falta de reconhecimento a quem partilha momentos de escalada, viabilizando novos horizontes. - A segunda, parte da ideia de que uma obra, quando se faz, inclui em si contributos vivos, nem sempre visíveis, sem os quais pode ficar logo em causa uma realização. A validade de tal contributo está na medida de quem o sente, não sendo, por vezes, proporcional à quantidade ou ao visível. Nestas premissas enquadra-se a minha atitude passada, porque abracei a tarefa que me apresentaram como opção, a realização do mestrado em Estudos da Criança - Educação Musical, e a minha atitude presente, porque, tendo-me apercebido de muitas forças positivas ao longo desse percurso que assumi, sem quantificar importâncias, faço perpetuar nestas linhas, a única razão desta nota, o meu sincero agradecimento. Respeitosamente, dirijo-o: Ao Instituto de Estudos da Criança, da Universidade do Minho, e à equipa docente da Área Disciplinar de Educação Musical, em especial à Senhora Prof. Doutora Elisa Maria Maia Silva Lessa, por quem se abriram as pistas de trabalho conducentes à tese que apresento; A todos os agentes culturais que cooperaram, de forma diferenciada, como em Arquivos e Bibliotecas, e a família do autor estudado, que me confiou o seu espólio.

  • Lili Boulanger (1893–1918) and World War I France: Mobilizing Motherhood and the Good Suffering
    Lili Boulanger (1893–1918) and World War I France: Mobilizing Motherhood and the Good Suffering By Anya B. Holland-Barry A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Music) at the UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN-MADISON 2012 Date of final oral examination: 08/24/2012 This dissertation is approved by the following members of the Final Oral Committee: Susan C. Cook, Professor, Music Charles Dill, Professor, Music Lawrence Earp, Professor, Music Nan Enstad, Professor, History Pamela Potter, Professor, Music i Dedication This dissertation is dedicated to my best creations—my son, Owen Frederick and my unborn daughter, Clara Grace. I hope this dissertation and my musicological career inspires them to always pursue their education and maintain a love for music. ii Acknowledgements This dissertation grew out of a seminar I took with Susan C. Cook during my first semester at the University of Wisconsin. Her enthusiasm for music written during the First World War and her passion for research on gender and music were contagious and inspired me to continue in a similar direction. I thank my dissertation advisor, Susan C. Cook, for her endless inspiration, encouragement, editing, patience, and humor throughout my graduate career and the dissertation process. In addition, I thank my dissertation committee—Charles Dill, Lawrence Earp, Nan Enstad, and Pamela Potter—for their guidance, editing, and conversations that also helped produce this dissertation over the years. My undergraduate advisor, Susan Pickett, originally inspired me to pursue research on women composers and if it were not for her, I would not have continued on to my PhD in musicology.

  • Sound Films of Alice Guy Blaché
    SOUND FILMS DIRECTED BY ALICE GUY Compiled by Victor Bachy 1, updated by Alison McMahan In 1905, 1906 and early 1907 Guy directed synchronized sound films, called phonoscènes , for the Gaumont Chronophone. Gaumont listed them separately, with a separate numbering system, so they are listed in the same way here. This list is put together from two sources: Bachy’s list is based on the July 1906 catalogue, the first chronophone catalogue, which included disc sizes given in mm. McMahan only had access to the July 1908 catalogue. 2 When a film descriptor, such as length in meters, differed between the two, the 1908 catalogue was adhered to. If a film appears in one source but not the other (for example, Bachy does not list films numbered 175 to 199 or 303 to 339) it is included. Because Bachy used a catalogue that ends eights months before Alice Guy left Gaumont, McMahan has extended the list to include all the phonoscènes up to Viens , which Bachy attributes to Alice Guy. 2 Ave Maria, de Gounod. 47m. Diamètre du disque: 300mm. 4 Le Couteau, de Théodore Botrel, chanté par M. Ribière, 63m. Diamètre du disque: 300mm 5 Celle que jáime, par M. Morton. 63m.

  • A Global Context for the Weapons of Storytelling
    130 Literary Journalism Studies, Vol. 9, No. 2, Fall 2017 BOOK REVIEWS 131 A Global Context for the Weapons of Storytelling Periodismo narrativo: cómo contar la realidad con las armas de la literatura by Roberto Herrscher. Providencia, Chile: Ediciones Universidad Finis Terrae, 2016. Paperback, 636 pp., $27.99. Reviewed by Isabel Soares, CAPP, ISCSP, Universidade de Lisboa, Portugal elling real stories. This is how Roberto Herrscher Tsummarizes literary journalism in his book Peri- odismo narrativo: cómo contar la realidad con las armas de la literatura (2016), literally meaning Narrative Journalism: How to Tell the Truth with the Weapons of Literature, a Chilean edition of a book he first pub- lished with the University of Barcelona in 2009. It is also through storytelling, his own personal life stories, that Herrscher, both a journalist and a journalism educator, starts positing a theory of literary journalism. His life stories, whether as a soldier during the Falklands War in 1982 or as a traveller crossing the border from his native Argentina to Chile with his fiancée, are examples of an “I” that writes about per- sonal experience as a way towards both self-discovery and the discovery of the “Oth- er” with whom the “I” engages. Such is also, according to Herrscher, the purpose of literary journalism, here called “narrative journalism,” the favored expression in the Spanish-speaking world. To Herrscher, literary journalism is the “theatre of reality” (48). It is the crossing of a threshold separating a source-only based journalism from a journalism of scenes and characters. As he writes: “To go from the sources to the char- acters and from the statements to the almost theatrical scenes where people tell things is to step into the world of literary journalism” (49).

  • The Cambridge Companion to Operetta Edited by Anastasia Belina , Derek B
    Cambridge University Press 978-1-107-18216-5 — The Cambridge Companion to Operetta Edited by Anastasia Belina , Derek B. Scott Frontmatter More Information The Cambridge Companion to Operetta Those whose thoughts of musical theatre are dominated by the Broadway musical will find this book a revelation. From the 1850s to the early 1930s, when urban theatres sought to mount glamorous musical entertainment, it was to operetta that they turned. It was a form of musical theatre that crossed national borders with ease and was adored by audiences around the world. This collection of essays by an array of international scholars examines the key figures in operetta in many different countries. It offers a critical and historical study of the widespread production of operetta and of the enthusiasm with which it was welcomed. Furthermore, it challenges nationalistic views of music and approaches operetta as a compositional genre. This Cambridge Companion contributes to a widening appreciation of the music of operetta and a deepening knowledge of the cultural importance of operetta around the world. anastasia belina is Senior Research Fellow at the University of Leeds. She is author and editor of A Musician Divided (2013), Die tägliche Mühe ein Mensch zu sein (2013), Wagner in Russia, Poland and the Czech Lands (2013, co-edited edition) and The Business of Opera (2015, co-edited with Derek B. Scott). Between 2014 and 2019 she researched the reception of German operetta in Warsaw as part of an ERC-funded project. She is currently working on the BBC and AHRC project Forgotten Female Composers for which she is researching the life and work of Augusta Holmès.
