| Summary: | "On March 10, 1948, world-renowned composer and pianist Ernst von Dohnányi (1877-1960) embarked for the Americas, leaving Europe for good. The Hungarian musician was seventy years old, and only a few years earlier he had been a triumphant, internationally admired pianist and leading figure in Hungarian musical life. Fleeing a political smear campaign that sought to implicate him in intellectual collaboration with fascism, he reached American shores without a job or a home. Based on a range of previously unavailable material, A Wayfaring Stranger presents the final period in Dohnányi's exceptional career and reexamines commonly held beliefs about the composer and his unique musical oeuvre. Offering insights into his life as a teacher, pianist, and composer, the book also considers the difficulties of émigré life, the political charges made against him, and the compositional and aesthetic dilemmas faced by a conservative artist. To this rich biographical account, the author adds detailed analyses of Dohnányi's late works-in most cases the first to appear in musicological literature. This corrective history provides never-before-seen photographs of the musician's life in the United States and skillfully illustrates Dohnányi's impact on European and American music and the culture of the time"-- |

Dohnányi's concert repertoire in the United States "On March 10, 1948, world-renowned composer and pianist Ernst von Dohnányi (1877-1960) embarked for the Americas, leaving Europe for good. The Hungarian musician was seventy years old, and only a few years earlier he had been a triumphant, internationally admired pianist and leading figure in Hungarian musical life. Fleeing a political smear campaign that sought to implicate him in intellectual collaboration with fascism, he reached American shores without a job or a home. Based on a range of previously unavailable material, A Wayfaring Stranger presents the final period in Dohnányi's exceptional career and reexamines commonly held beliefs about the composer and his unique musical oeuvre. Offering insights into his life as a teacher, pianist, and composer, the book also considers the difficulties of émigré life, the political charges made against him, and the compositional and aesthetic dilemmas faced by a conservative artist. To this rich biographical account, the author adds detailed analyses of Dohnányi's late works-in most cases the first to appear in musicological literature. This corrective history provides never-before-seen photographs of the musician's life in the United States and skillfully illustrates Dohnányi's impact on European and American music and the culture of the time"-- Dohnányi, Ernst von 1877-1960 (DE-588)119110016 gnd rswk-swf Geschichte 1949-1960 gnd rswk-swf Pianist (DE-588)4131406-2 gnd rswk-swf Exil (DE-588)4015959-0 gnd rswk-swf Komponist (DE-588)4032009-1 gnd rswk-swf Ungarn (DE-588)4078541-5 gnd rswk-swf USA (DE-588)4078704-7 gnd rswk-swf Dohnányi, Ernő / 1877-1960 Dohnányi, Ernő / 1877-1960 / Criticism and interpretation Expatriate composers / United States / Biography Composers / Hungary / Biography Hungarians / United States / Biography Composers Expatriate composers Hungarians Hungary United States Biographies Criticism, interpretation, etc (DE-588)4113937-9 Hochschulschrift gnd-content (DE-588)4006804-3 Biografie gnd-content Dohnányi, Ernst von 1877-1960 (DE-588)119110016 p Exil (DE-588)4015959-0 s USA (DE-588)4078704-7 g Geschichte 1949-1960 z DE-604 Ungarn (DE-588)4078541-5 g Komponist (DE-588)4032009-1 s Pianist (DE-588)4131406-2 s Kusz, Viktória trl McLean, Brian 1944- trl Erscheint auch als Online-Ausgabe, ebk 978-0-520-97226-1 |
