Excerpt: Éric Alfred Leslie Satie (Honfleur, 17 May 1866 Paris, 1 July 1925) was a French composer and pianist. Starting with his first composition in 1884, he signed his name as Erik Satie. Satie was introduced as a "gymnopedist" in 1887, shortly before writing his most famous compositions, the Gymnopédies. Later, he also referred to himself as a "phonometrician" (meaning "someone who measures sounds") preferring this designation to that of "musician", after having been called "a clumsy but subtle technician" in a book on contemporary French composers published in 1911. In addition to his body of music, Satie also left a remarkable set of writings, having contributed work for a range of publications, from the dadaist 391 to the American top culture chronicle Vanity Fair. Although in later life he prided himself on always publishing his work under his own name, in the late nineteenth century he appears to have used pseudonyms such as Virginie Lebeau and François de Paule in some of his published writings. Satie was a colourful figure in the early 20th century Parisian avant-garde. His work was a precursor to later artistic movements such as minimalism, repetitive music, and the Theatre of the Absurd. Erik Satie's youth was spent alternating between living in Honfleur, Basse-Normandie, and Paris. When he was four years old, his family moved to Paris, his father (Alfred), having been offered a translator's job in the capital. After his mother (born Jane Leslie Anton, who was born in London to Scottish parents) died in 1872, he was sent, together with his younger brother Conrad, ...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=9956 ...

Excerpt: Le pauvre matelot (The Poor Sailor) is a three act opera (described as a 'complainte') composed by Darius Milhaud with libretto by Jean Cocteau. Its first performance was at the Opéra-Comique on December 16, 1927. Le pauvre matelot is short, lasting about 35 minutes when performed, and is dedicated to Henri Sauguet. The composer conducted a complete recording with forces of the Paris Opera in 1956. The United States premiere of the opera, produced by the Curtis Institute of Music, took place on 1 April 1937 at the Philadelphia Academy of Music in a production directed by Austrian composer, librettist, and stage director Ernst Lert and using set and costume designs by Tony Award winning designer Donald Oenslager. The opera was presented in a double bill with the world premiere of Gian Carlo Menotti's Amelia Goes to the Ball. Both operas were conducted by Fritz Reiner with Sylvan Levin serving as chorus master and a young Boris Goldovsky working as Assistant Conductor. The Milhaud/Menotti double bill played later that month in Baltimore at the city's Lyric Theatre and at the New Amsterdam Theatre in New York City. The setting of the opera is in the present at a seaport. The wife keeps a bar where most of the action takes place, and the opera opens with her dancing with the friend, who owns a wineshop across the street. The sailor has been gone for 15 years, with the Wife waiting faithfully for him to return. The friend encourages her chastity, and he admires her ability to do so despite living at a port. The wife responds that she would possibly have cheated were her husband present, but since he is gone, she feels it would not ...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=13382961 ... Read more

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Art music (or serious music or erudite music) is anumbrella term used to refer to musical traditions implyingadvanced structural and theoretical considerations and awritten musical tradition. The notion of art music is afrequent musicological distinction, referred to bymusicologist Philip Tagg as an "axiomatic triangleconsisting of 'folk', 'art' and 'popular' musics."Heexplains that each of these three is distinguishable fromthe others according to certain criteria. In this regard,it is frequently used as a contrasting term to popularmusic and traditional or folk music. The term is mostlyused to refer to music descending from classical tradition.This is the common definition of musicologists and scholarsincluding Theodor Adorno, Deryck Cooke, Joseph Swain,Nicolas Cook, Nicola Dibbens, and Philip Tagg. However,some other authors interested in music theory may define itdifferently. Musician Catherine Schmidt-Jones for exampledefines art music as "a music which requires significantlymore work by the listener to fully appreciate than istypical of popular music." In her view, "This can includethe more challenging types of jazz and rock music, as wellas Classical." ... Read more
