EDRS Price tvw-s,ctso HC-$3.10 Descriptors-Charts, Educational Facilities, *Higher Education, *Music,*Music Techniques, Research A formal analytical approach was utilized to developchart analyses of all movements within 33 selected piano concertoscomposed in the twentieth century. The macroform, or overall structure, of each movement wasdetermined by the initial statement, frequency of use, andorder of each main thematic elementidentified. Theme groupings were then classified underformal classical prototypes of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries (ternary,sonata-allegro, 5-part or 7-part rondo, theme and variations, and others), modified versionsof these forms (three-part design), or a variety of free sectionalforms. The chart and thematic illustrations are followed by a commentary discussing each movement aswell as the entire concerto. No correlation exists between styles andforms of the 33 concertos--the 26 composers usetraditional,individualistic,classical,and dissonant formsina combination of ways. Almost all works contain commonunifying thematic elements, and cyclicism (identical theme occurring in more than1 movement) is used to a great degree. None of the movements in sonata-allegroform contain double expositions, but 22 concertos have 3 movements, and21 have cadenzas, suggesting that the composers havelargely respected standards established in theClassical-Romantic period. Appendix A is the complete form diagramof Samuel Barber's Piano Concerto, Appendix B has concentrated analyses of all the concertos,and Appendix C lists each movement accordog to its design.(WM) DE:802 FINAL REPORT Project No.

  • Rudolph Ganz Swiss Pianist, Conductor and Composer
    AMICA International Automatic Musical Instrument Collectors' Association Honor Roll Rudolph Ganz Swiss pianist, conductor and composer Zurich, 24.02.1877 - Chicago, 02.08.1972 RUDOLPH GANZ BY EMMETT M. FORD The AMICA, v.14, No 4, May 1977 Rudolph Ganz, distinguished pianist, composer, conductor,Duo-Art, Welte-Mignon and Ampico recording artist and phonograph recording artist was born in Zurich, Switzerland, February 24, 1877. His early studies were at the Zurich Conservatory with Robert Freund in piano and cello with John Hegar. Later he went to Lausanne to receive piano instruction from his uncle, Carl Eschmann-Dumur, and composition with Charles Blanchet. At the Conservatory in Strasburg, Alsatia, he was the pupil of Fritz Blumer. Going to Berlin, he studied piano with Ferruccio Busoni and composition with Heinrich Urban. At the age of ten he appeared in public for the first time as a cellist in his home town. He turned to the piano as a future choice in instruments and at the age of twelve made his pianistic debut in 1889 in Zurich. Many concerts were made after his Zurich debut. At his Berlin debut he performed the Beethoven Concerto in E Flat and the Chopin E Minor Concerto. His first appearance as an orchestral conductor was in May of 1900 conducting the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra in the performance of his first symphony. It was in this year when he composed a piano and orchestra composition entitled "Konzertstuck." In July, 1900 he married an American concert singer, Mary Forrest. The couple came to the United States where Mr. Ganz became head of the piano department of the Chicago Musical College, the post vacated by A.

  • The Chosen De Jeremy Kagan É Baseado Numa Novela De Chaim Potok, Com O Mesmo Nome, De Cariz Autobiográfico
    Índice 1. Introdução página 2 2. O realizador página 3 3. Ficha técnica página 4 4. Sinopse página 5 5. O hassidismo página 6 6. Enquadramento página 8 7. As personagens página 9 8. Comentário página 11 9. Bibliografia página 13 1 1. Introdução O filme The Chosen de Jeremy Kagan é baseado numa novela de Chaim Potok, com o mesmo nome, de cariz autobiográfico. Neste filme pode-se acompanhar o percurso de dois adolescentes judeus, de mundos muito diferentes, um ortodoxo e um laico, que apesar de tudo estabelecem entre si uma amizade muito forte. Existe um mútuo fascínio pelo mundo um do outro, que leva os dois jovens a empreender uma descoberta do mundo desconhecido para cada um deles. A obra apresenta alguns aspectos interessantes do ponto de vista da Educação, como sejam o papel da escola na mudança da forma de ver o mundo ou o papel da educação enquanto recepção dos novos num mundo velho, cuja continuidade devem assegurar. Apesar disto talvez não possua conteúdo suficiente para ser realizado um trabalho apenas sobre este filme, até porque não era esse o projecto inicial. Para uma melhor compreensão do mundo hassídico e um melhor entendimento da maneira de agir dos hassidim, achou-se por bem integrar uma nota histórica sobre este movimento religioso e sobre as condições da sua criação. 2 2. O Realizador Jeremy Paul Kagan nasceu a 14 de Dezembro de 1945 em Mount Vernon, no estado de Nova Iorque. Efectuou os seus estudos cinematográficos em Harvard e na Universidade de Nova Iorque. Posteriormente aperfeiçoou a sua técnica no American Film Institute.
