In this wide-ranging book, Arnold Whittall considers a group of important composers of the twentieth century, including Debussy, Webern, Schoenberg, Stravinsky, Bartók, Janácek, Britten, Carter, Birtwistle, Andriessen and Adams. He moves skilfully between the cultural and the technical, the general and the particular, to explore the various contexts and critical perspectives which illuminate certain works by these composers. Considering the extent to which place and nationality contribute to the definition of musical character, he investigates the relevance of such images as mirroring and symmetry, the function of genre and the way types of identity may be suggested by such labels as classical, modernist, secular, sacred radical, traditional. These categories are considered as flexible and interactive and they generate a wide-ranging series of narratives delineating some of the most fundamental forces which affected composers and their works within the complex and challenging world of the twentieth century.

The vocal repertoire of the twentieth century--including works by Schoenberg, Boulez, Berio, Larsen, and Vercoe--presents exciting opportunities for singers to stretch their talents and demonstrate their vocal flexibility. Contemporary composers can be very demanding of vocalists, requiring them to recite, trill, and whisper, or to read non-traditional scores. For singers just beginning to explore the novelties of the contemporary repertoire, Exploring Twentieth-Century Vocal Music is an ideal guide. Drawing on over thirty years of experience teaching and performing the twentieth century repertoire, Sharon Mabry has written a cogent and insightful book for singers and voice teachers who are just discovering the innovative music of the twentieth century. The book familiarizes readers with the new and unusual notation systems employed by some contemporary composers. It suggests rehearsal techniques and vocal exercises that help singers prepare to tackle the repertoire. And the book offers a list of the most important and interesting works to emerge in the twentieth century, along with suggested recital programs that will introduce audiences as well as singers to this under-explored body of music.

This rich anthology of 50 first-rate musical compositions documents the development of musical style from the early Middle Ages to the middle of the 18th century. Each piece has been carefully selected by noted musicologist Carl Parrish as an exemplar of an important step in the evolution of musical style, as well as for its intrinsic interest and beauty. Selections include a Gregorian hymn, an English lute piece, a German organ chorale prelude, operatic arias, instrumental and vocal motets, a French ballad, and works by Vivaldi, Telemann, Pergolesi, Alessandro Scarlatti, Buxtehude, and other masters. Dr. Parrish has also provided an interesting commentary on each composition, evaluating its style, form and historical setting. Complete compositions or sections of compositions are supplied whenever possible, and to facilitate study, each example is presented so that it can be performed either vocally or at the piano.
