Contributions from a number of leading authorities include Malcolm MacDonald (writing on orchestral music), Ates Orga (writing on piano works), Alistair Chisholm (writing on chamber music), and James Reid Baxter (writing on Stevenson's position in Scottish culture). Reproductions of a selection of Stevenson's exquisite piano miniatures, in facsimiles of the composer's calligraphic script, are included. ... Read more

Product Description
In 1957 the Australian-American composer Percy Grainger, then 75 and in failing health, received a letter from another pianist-composer, the young Ronald Stevenson, writing from his home in West Linton, below Edinburgh. That first contact - requesting Grainger's reminiscences of Ferruccio Busoni, with whom he had studied - led to an exchange of 32 letters over the four years before Grainger's death in February 1961. The two men soon found that, despite their 46-year age-difference, they had many affinities. Both were pianists of staggering abilities and composers who combined a love for folk-music and working-class art with an aesthetic that proposed a `world music' to include the farthest reaches of humanity. Both made an art of piano transcription of a wide variety of works and were champions of little-known music and composers. And both revered the work of Walt Whitman, that great poet of inclusivity, the pioneering spirit and the open road. This book presents both the complete Grainger-Stevenson correspondence and Ronald Stevenson's many articles and lectures on Grainger and his music, edited by Teresa Balough, whose two interviews with Stevenson open and close the volume - which includes a CD of a lecture-recital on Grainger that Stevenson presented in Grainger's home in White Plains, New York, in 1976. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars Bernhard Ziehn - the forgotten contrpuntalist
I have been looking for this book, now reprinted, for literally years. In it Ziehn (1845-1912) develops his theory of counterpoint. Key notions are:
(i) inversion, in a 'real' rather than tonal, procedure, which often requires all twelve semitones and is not fixed to any particular key
(ii) canon - Ziehn saw imitation as a primary source of musical ideas.

Ziehn was greatly influenced by Ferrucio Busoni, another sadly underappreciated composer and contrapuntalist.

It remains to be seen how much of Schoenberg's thinking may have been influenced by Ziehn.

Excerpt: Professor Erik William Chisholm (4 January 1904 8 June 1965) was a Scottish composer and conductor often known as "Scotlands forgotten composer". According to his biographer, Chisholm "was the first composer to absorb Celtic idioms into his music in form as well as content, his achievement paralleling that of Bartók in its depth of understanding and its daring", which led to his nickname of "MacBartók". He was also a founder of the Celtic Ballet and, together with Margaret Morris, created the first full-length Scottish ballet, The Forsaken Mermaid.

Excerpt: Joyce Hatto (5 September 1928, London, England 29 June 2006, Cambridge, England) was a British pianist and piano teacher. She became famous late in life, when unauthorized copies of commercial recordings made by other pianists were released under her name, earning her high praise from critics. The fraud did not come to light until a few months after her death. As a promising young professional Hatto played at a large number of concerts in London and throughout Britain and Europe beginning in the 1950s. There were concertos (accompanied by the Boyd Neel, Haydn and London Symphony Orchestras and many others), solo recitals at the Wigmore and Queen Elizabeth Halls and elsewhere, as well as (in the late 1960s and early 1970s) concerts by "pupils of Joyce Hatto": she supplemented her earnings with work as a repetiteur for the London Philharmonic Choir, working under such conductors as Sir Thomas Beecham and Victor de Sabata; and as a piano t...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=4173231 ...

Chapters: Ronald Stevenson, Eric Woolfson, Francis Healy, Junior Campbell, Bill Wells, Neil Mackie, Pat Smythe, Marina Nadiradze, Joe "Mr Piano" Henderson, Sophia Dussek, Irvin Duguid, Robin Douglas-Home, Gordon Cree, Stuart Robertson,. Source: Wikipedia. Pages: 53. Not illustrated. Free updates online. Purchase includes a free trial membership in the publisher's book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Excerpt: Ronald Stevenson (born March 6, 1928 in Blackburn, Lancashire) is a British composer, pianist, and writer about music. The son of a Scottish father and English mother, Stevenson studied at the Royal Manchester College of Music (now incorporated in the Royal Northern College of Music), studying composition with Richard Hall and piano with Iso Ellinson, graduating with distinction in 1948. He moved to Scotland in the mid-1950s. As author and performer he was instrumental in reviving the works of Ferruccio Busoni, and corresponded with Percy Grainger. Among his many compositions, the largest (in terms of duration) and most famous is his Passacaglia on DSCH for solo piano, written between 1960 and 1962, based on a 13-note ground bass derived from the musical motif D, E-flat, C, B: the German transliteration of Dmitri Shostakovich's initials ("D. Sch."). (Shostakovich used these four notes as a musical 'signature', for example in his Eighth String Quartet). Stevenson's work takes more than an hour and a quarter to perform and may be the longest unbroken single movement composed for piano, though the first movement of Sorabji's Fourth Piano Symphony exceeds it by over 10 minutes. Stevenson's other works include two piano concertos, the second of which was first performed at a Prom in 1972, a violin concerto commissioned by Yehudi Menuhin, and a cello concerto in memoriam Jacqueline du Pré. He has also written several chamber works including a String Quartet and Piano Quartet, numerous ...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=1938788 ... Read more
