{"product_id":"music-of-stravinsky-hardback","title":"Music of Stravinsky - Hardback","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe most celebrated of Western composers in the twentieth century, Igor Stravinsky may have been the greatest as well. Stretching across forty or so years, the essays in this volume address the dynamics of Igor Stravinsky’s music from a variety of analytical, critical, and aesthetic angles. Underscored are the features of melody, harmony, rhythm, and form that would remain consistently a part of Stravinsky’s oeuvre regardless of the changes in orientation from the Russian period to the neoclassical and the early serial. \u003cem\u003eThe Rite of Spring (1913), Les Noces\u003c\/em\u003e (1917–23), the \u003cem\u003eSymphony of Psalms\u003c\/em\u003e (1930), and the\u003cem\u003e Symphony in Three Movements\u003c\/em\u003e (1945) are discussed in detail, as are many of the circumstances attending their conception. Other concerns include the composer’s \"formalist\" aesthetics and the strict performing style he pursued as an interpreter and conductor of his music.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45601105510638,"sku":"9789814968621","price":91.2,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/bookland.com.au\/products\/music-of-stravinsky-hardback","provider":"Book Land AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
