cm. 17 x 24, 590 pp. con 8 tavv. f.t. e CD-ROM. Fondazione Giorgio Cini - Studi di musica veneta - Quaderni vivaldiani Il libro giunge a colmare una lacuna vistosa nella letteratura storico-musicale. Lacuna quasi inspiegabile, considerata la fama conquistata nel Settecento dai quattro ?cori? femminili degli ospedali veneziani, per l?eccellenza delle esecuzioni e per la collaborazione artistica di tanti compositori celebri. Frutto di un sistematico lavoro di ricerca, la monografia ricostruisce con dovizia di dettagli inediti la storia delle istituzioni, il contesto dell?offerta musicale, le fisionomie dei cori e dei repertori. This book fills a major gap in historical music literature. An almost inexplicable gap, considering the fame the four female ?choirs? of Venice?s hospitals gained for their excellent performances and artistic cooperation with many famous composers in the 18th century. With many previously unpublished details, this monograph, the fruit of systematic research work, traces the history of the institutions, the context of the supply of music, the characteristics of the choirs and their repertoires. 1137 gr. 590 p.

New English Paperback. 4to. (32 x 24 cm). In English and Turkish. 176 p., musical scores. Compositions for baglama: In baglama Bozuk, Misket and Müstezat tunings.= Baglama için besteler: Baglama, Bozuk, Misket ve Müstezat düzenlerinde. The instrument of Baglama, which has been shaped within many years in the rural areas and has a rich and profound history, began to create its tradition in the urban areas after the establishment of the Turkish Republic. In the past, this instrument mostly passed down the vocal melodies; however, now it is agreed by many music authorities that it is about time it must be a part of instrumental music on its own as well. The primary purpose of this book is to contribute to Baglama new tradition without ignoring its richness dating back to old times. This book involves twenty works composed in the tunings of baglama, of bozuk, of misket and of müstezat. Those compositions, prepared to be played in both picked and pickless (selpe) styles, are thought to be beneficial for baglama education as well, and thus it is agreed that methodical symbols should be used in the notation.

214pp VG/none First edition in English, printed at the request of the Ministry of Munitions. Editorial sturdy green cloth with bright gilt lettering on front board and spine, spine slightly faded and light foxing on pastedowns and endpapers otherwise a very good, nice copy, crisp and clean. Important work by the Italian scientist Galileo Ferraris, originally published in Italian as The Fundamental Properties of Dioptric Instruments, here translated into English by Oscar Faber. From the review which apperared in Nature, the scientific journal: "The original of this translation was published by Prof. Galileo Ferraris, of Turin, in 1876. As a copy of this original could apparently not be procured, the English translation was made from a German one by Lippich, which appeared in 1879. At the time of its appearance the book unquestionably marked a great advance in the treatment of its subject, and well deserved the extremely favourable review with which Abbe honoured the German translation in the first volume of the Zeitschrift für Instrumentenkunde."
