Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. BERKSHIRE MUSIC FESTIVALS THE TALE OF TANGLEWOOD BY M.A. DEWOLFE HOWE 1946. Quoting from the flap of the dust jacket: The word Tanglewood has two vivid associations in the mind of the American public. The first is with Hawthorne s Tanglewood Tales; the second with a series of Music Festivals conducted in recent summers by Serge Koussevitzky at the country place that bears the same name. I am pleased to offer a post-WWII celebration of Tanglewood; please find: The Tale of Tanglewood Scene of the Berkshire Music Festivals by M.A. DeWolfe Howe and with an Introduction by Serge Koussevitzky. This small hard cover book (6 ½ x 9 ¼ inches 99 pages) was published by The Vanguard Press of New York dated 1946 and I believe it is the First Edition. The book includes a series of photographic illustrations. It is bound in decorative boards with a blueish gray spine with gilt titles and protected by a printed paper dust jacket. There are some things laid-in at the rear endpaper including a 1949 New York Times clipping about the upcoming year s festivals. Condition: This book is in very good condition. The dust jacket shows some light edge wear and bumping at the corners and spine tips. The hard covers are clean but perhaps a bit dust-dulled but with just faint bumping. Inside a former owner has left her name on the front endpaper and the clipping at the rear has left a shadow. The interior pages are clean and bright without toning or foxing. Both hinges are intact, and the binding is tight and sound. This book is not ex-library or a remainder.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware -Dank der geschickten Verbindung von romantischer Melodik und sprühender Virtuosität gehört Koussevitzkys Kontrabasskonzert op. 3 seit der Moskauer Uraufführung 1905 zu den populärsten Werken seiner Gattung. Kein Wunder, denn der virtuose Bassist Koussevitzky hatte es seinem Instrument geradezu auf den Leib geschrieben. Bereits 1906/07 erschien in Moskau ein erster Klavierauszug, dem 1910 ein zweiter in Leipzig folgte. Beide sind jedoch in der Solostimme so fehlerhaft, dass bis heute an vielen Stellen Unsicherheit über den korrekten Notentext besteht. Kontrabassist Tobias Glöckler stellt seine Urtextausgabe daher auf eine breite Basis: Neben dem handschriftlichen Aufführungsmaterial und den zu Lebzeiten des Komponisten erschienenen Klavierauszügen zieht er auch Tonaufnahmen mit Koussevitzky als Solisten heran - und liefert damit endlich eine fundierte Urtextausgabe von Orchesterpartitur und Klavierauszug dieses Klassikers der Kontrabass-Literatur. Wie bei allen Kontrabasskonzerten im Henle-Verlag bietet auch diese Ausgabe den Klavierauszug von Christoph Sobanski in zwei Tonarten (e-moll und fis-moll), für die Ausführung in Solo- oder Orchesterstimmung. 92 pp. Englisch, Französisch, Deutsch.…
