| Zusammenfassung: | Robert Shaw is considered to be the most influential choral conductor in American history. This is the first collection of his letters and notes about music ever published - at another time, it is the book Shaw would have written himself. The letters are an invigorating mix of music history and analysis, philosophy, inspiration, and practical advice. Shaw examines technique, but only as a means to an end; he moves beyond this, delving into the essence of what music is and what it has to say to us. The heart of the book is composed of Shaw's previously unpublished notes on fifteen major choral works, ranging from Bach's B Minor Mass to Stravinsky's Symphony of Psalms. Often inspiring and sometime hilarious, these writings reveal the full breadth of Shaw's knowledge, intensity, and humour. |

The heart of the book is composed of Shaw's previously unpublished notes on fifteen major choral works, ranging from Bach's B Minor Mass to Stravinsky's Symphony of Psalms. Often inspiring and sometime hilarious, these writings reveal the full breadth of Shaw's knowledge, intensity, and humour.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="505" ind1="0" ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Contents -- preface -- introduction -- part i organizing and sustaining the chorus -- part ii thoughts on music, singing, rehearsal, and performance -- approach, analysis, preparation -- warm-up, rhythm and tempo, phrasing -- quiet singing and count-singing -- enunciation, language -- part iii conducting the masterpieces -- part iv preaching the gospel (of the arts) -- part v celebrating the rituals of life -- awards and citations -- eulogies -- letters -- verse -- index</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Choral conducting.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85030805</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Music</subfield><subfield code="x">History and criticism.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85088794</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Direction chorale.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Musique</subfield><subfield code="x">Histoire et critique.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">MUSIC</subfield><subfield code="x">Genres & Styles</subfield><subfield code="x">Choral.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">MUSIC</subfield><subfield code="x">General.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Choral conducting</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Music</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Chorleitung</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd</subfield><subfield code="0">http://d-nb.info/gnd/4147907-5</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="655" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Criticism, interpretation, etc.</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="700" ind1="1" ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Blocker, Robert.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="758" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="i">has work:</subfield><subfield code="a">The Robert Shaw reader (Text)</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PCGf47BMf6FcCmDPRwMTKtX</subfield><subfield code="4">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/ontology/hasWork</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="776" ind1="0" ind2="8"><subfield code="i">Print version:</subfield><subfield code="a">Shaw, Robert, 1916-1999.</subfield><subfield code="t">Robert Shaw reader.</subfield><subfield code="d">New Haven : Yale University Press, ©2004</subfield><subfield code="w">(DLC) 2004046538</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="856" ind1="1" ind2=" "><subfield code="l">FWS01</subfield><subfield code="p">ZDB-4-EBA</subfield><subfield code="q">FWS_PDA_EBA</subfield><subfield code="u">https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&AN=187689</subfield><subfield code="3">Volltext</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="856" ind1="1" ind2=" "><subfield code="l">CBO01</subfield><subfield code="p">ZDB-4-EBA</subfield><subfield code="q">FWS_PDA_EBA</subfield><subfield code="u">https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&AN=187689</subfield><subfield code="3">Volltext</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="936" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">BATCHLOAD</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">EBL -

Robert Shaw is considered to be the most influential choral conductor in American history. This is the first collection of his letters and notes about music ever published - at another time, it is the book Shaw would have written himself. The letters are an invigorating mix of music history and analysis, philosophy, inspiration, and practical advice. Shaw examines technique, but only as a means to an end; he moves beyond this, delving into the essence of what music is and what it has to say to us. The heart of the book is composed of Shaw's previously unpublished notes on fifteen major choral works, ranging from Bach's B Minor Mass to Stravinsky's Symphony of Psalms. Often inspiring and sometime hilarious, these writings reveal the full breadth of Shaw's knowledge, intensity, and humour. Contents -- preface -- introduction -- part i organizing and sustaining the chorus -- part ii thoughts on music, singing, rehearsal, and performance -- approach, analysis, preparation -- warm-up, rhythm and tempo, phrasing -- quiet singing and count-singing -- enunciation, language -- part iii conducting the masterpieces -- part iv preaching the gospel (of the arts) -- part v celebrating the rituals of life -- awards and citations -- eulogies -- letters -- verse -- index Choral conducting. http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85030805 Music History and criticism. http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85088794 Direction chorale.
