Synopsis
Excerpt from The Great in Music: A Systematic Course of Study in the Music of Classical and Modern Composers
To this extremely powerful and virile work has been given the name of military polonaise. Certainly one could not march to it as to a strict march in common time, but the energy, ambition, determination and tri umph uttered in its stirring strophes can not be mistaken as to their significance, and they rouse the pulses like a fanfare of trumpets.

The Great in Music (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is arguably one of the first to thoroughly dissect and define the genius of Frederic Chopin. Published half a century after, this book beautifully articulates the career of a man who died at only 39. Within this text, Chopin is characterized as a complex man whose contrasting personal characteristics were mirrored in his compositions. The author provides poignant examples of this contrast, comparing his charming and spontaneous personality to his deeply melancholic musical compositions. The author also argues that Chopin, born to Polish and French parents, channeled this unique lineage into his musical compositions. This provided an unusual blend of contrasting qualities, characterized by rapid shifts between cheerfulness, whimsy, gloom, and anger. The author does a remarkable job of analyzing Chopin's works, providing insights into the mood and often contradictory emotions embedded within each piece. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781333605889_0
