2024MUSIQUEEE97800725Lyon, Symétrie, 2024, 17 x 24, 460 pages sous couverture souple illustrée. Quelques illustrations noir & blanc et couleurs. "Après un premier volume, Hélène de Montgeroult, la Marquise et la Marseillaise, publié en 2006, l'apparition de nouveaux documents ainsi que l'accueil chaleureux et enthousiaste que la critique musicale et le grand public ont réservé aux études pour piano d'Hélène de Montgeroult … Après un premier volume, Hélène de Montgeroult, la Marquise et la Marseillaise, publié en 2006, l'apparition de nouveaux documents ainsi que l'accueil chaleureux et enthousiaste que la critique musicale et le grand public ont réservé aux études pour piano d'Hélène de Montgeroult rendaient nécessaire l'écriture d'un nouvel ouvrage sur cette compositrice. Notre premier livre avait juste esquissé l'analyse de l'oeuvre d'Hélène de Montgeroult pour se consacrer principalement à l'aspect biographique. Aujourd'hui, il s'agit bien de remettre au premier plan sa musique en mêlant l'analyse musicale réservée aux spécialistes, et le simple commentaire, plus abordable pour les mélomanes, tout en reliant cette musique à la personnalité de son autrice, dans son temps et dans ses écrits "? littéraires ?". Hélène de Montgeroult était profondément libre, tant dans sa vie que dans sa création artistique. Elle n'obéissait pas aux canons artistiques habituels et n'a jamais exprimé le moindre doute quant à sa légitimité à composer de la musique. Osons affirmer que cette musicienne est un génie, par son côté visionnaire, par l'expressivité de sa musique et par la rigueur de sa pensée compositionnelle et pédagogique. Elle est désormais présentée comme la première romantique par ses admirateurs, dans des pays comme la France, l'Angleterre, l'Allemagne, l'Espagne, l'Italie, les Etats-Unis et le Canada, le Brésil et le Chili, le Japon, la Corée, la Chine et l'Australie. Son art résidait dans la volonté de faire chanter le piano, l'expression étant pour elle le but essentiel de la musique. Elle a laissé pour illustrer cette idée un Cours complet pour l'enseignement du fortepiano qui est un monument musical et pédagogique. Dans ce Cours complet, l'élève devient sans effort et presque sans s'en apercevoir lecteur, pianiste et musicien."

1915List3685Chicago Illinois: Axel Christensen School of Popular Music 1915. Six issues from the inaugural volume of Christensen’s ragtime periodical. Original wrappers; expected wear from use; overall very good. A rare group of early issues from Christensen’s Ragtime Review a short-lived publication emerging from the Chicago-based pedagogical enterprise of Danish-American pianist and educator Axel Christensen 1883–1976. Founded in late 1914 at the height of ragtime’s popular ascendancy the magazine functioned simultaneously as promotional organ instructional forum and cultural manifesto for Christensen’s method of popular piano playing which emphasized chord-based accompaniment improvisation and practical musicianship over traditional conservatory training. <br /> <br /> Issues typically include instructional essays commentary on performers and repertoire advertisements for correspondence courses and reflections on the evolving aesthetics of popular piano performance. Christensen’s rhetoric positioned him prominently within the ragtime movement—styled in promotional literature as the “Czar of Ragtimeâ€â€”while acknowledging figures such as Scott Joplin as foundational to the genre’s development.1 Produced during the period when ragtime intersected with emerging jazz practices the Review offers insight to the genre in a transitional phase. Some of the specific articles include a course in vaudeville and picture piano playing several compositions and articles on left hand technique. Early loose issues are seldom encountered outside institutional bound runs; we find none in commerce or auction records.<br /> <br /> 1 Edward A.
