As some of you may know, this is not the first book I have written on the world of the Bass Guitar, in fact I think it is the thirteenth (or something like that). But I felt that I had not created something really and totally (not that previous teaching methods are not!) useful, for those whose goal is to make music their profession, or, at the very least, for those who want to be able to play to the best of their ability, in as many musical contexts as possible. So I'm going to try, premising that I am a bass player by profession, but I do not consider myself a professional bass player. I have only gained about 20 years of experience, gigging, studying, and more.To recap, I will try, with all my might, to give you as much advice as I can, and I will also try to get you to avoid the mistakes (many) that I have made over time!!! So guys, this, rather than a real teaching method, we could define it as a kind of "manual" for optimizing various studies, based, as I said, on my experiences, both as a musician and as a teacher.

Klang und Musik bieten vielfältiges Material, um die Anwendbarkeit von Mathematik darzulegen. Im vorliegenden Buch haben wir die Mathematik auf dem Niveau eines Bachelorstudiums vor Augen. Die Themen auf Seite von Klang und Musik betreffen u.a. Tonleitern, Schallwellen in Streich- und Blasinstrumenten, Kugelwellen, Töne und Obertöne, schwingende Membrane, Impedanz und gekoppelte schwingende (Klavier)saiten. Die Akustik bietet Anlass und viel Stoff, um auf ganz unterschiedliche Themen aus der Mathematik einzugehen und exemplarisch die Anwendbarkeit von elementarer wie fortgeschrittener Mathematik darzulegen. Themen aus der Mathematik sind u.a. Kettenbrücke, die Wellengleichung in verschiedenen Dimensionen, Fourieranalyse, Besselfunktionen und Besselgleichung, das Verfahren der stationären Phase, die Diskriminante von Polynomen. Das Konzept ist in mehreren Vorlesungen erprobt: Stoff aus Analysisvorlesungen wird durch die anschaulichen Themen dieses Buches lebendig gemacht, wasinsbesondere für Lehramtstudierende hilfreich sein kann.

"Spielen als Andacht" ist unmittelbar aus dem Hören der Streichquartette Joseph Haydns anhand von CD-Einspielungen (vor allem des Kodály-Quartetts) formuliert. Hat Haydn das Streichquartett "erfunden"? Sicher nicht! Und doch: wenn auch andere Komponisten, voran Luigi Boccherini, seinerzeit entsprechende Entwürfe für zwei Violinen, Viola und Violoncello vorlegten, so war es eben Haydn, der solches instrumentale Spielen in, ja als "Andacht" in einem quasi-religiösen Sinn entwarf und es damit in eine Ernsthaftigkeit hob, die, von Mozart angefangen, allen folgenden Komponisten zum Maßstab wurde. In Haydns Quartetten wendet sich instrumentales Spielen sozusagen (zuerst) dem Spielenden und dann auch dem Mit-Spielenden (= Hörenden) zu. Es versetzt diese in eine Art hingegebene Konzentration, die sich, wenn auch zugegeben spekulativ, als wohl noch unmittelbar aus einer selbstverständlichen Religiosität des Komponisten herleiten lässt. Die "Quadros" Haydns, als ein Selberspielen "entre nous" entworfen, erscheinen uns so zumindest ab dem sog. Op. 9 als eine abschließende Etappe religiöser Emanzipation innerhalb einer spezifisch katholischen Welt am Ende der Frühen Neuzeit. Indem wir ihnen als einer Art Andacht begegnen, in der persönliche Religiosität bzw. religiöse Ausgangssujets in ein emanzipiert-meditatives Spielen und vor allem Mitspielen (= Hören) übertragen und verallgemeinert erscheinen, lassen sie uns die alte Kontroverse zwischen einem angeblichen "Vergnügen des Verstandes" (Haydn) und einem "emotionalen Wert" (Boccherini) obsolet werden.

Kevin Korsyn is a renowned music theorist, musicologist, and pedagogue who has taught at the University of Michigan since 1992. He has published widely and influentially in areas as diverse as Beethoven and Brahms studies, chromatic tonality, disciplinarity and metatheory, history of theory, musical meaning and hermeneutics, poststructuralism (deconstruction, intertextuality, etc.), and Schenkerian theory and analysis. Because of the scope and caliber of his published work, and also his legacy as a pedagogue, Korsyn has had a profound impact on the field of music theory, along with the related fields of historical musicology and aesthetics.This book, a festschrift for Korsyn, comprises essays that constellate around his numerous scholarly foci. Represented in the volume are not only familiar music-theoretical topics such as chromaticism, form, Schenker, and text-music relations, but also various interdisciplinary topics such as deconstruction, disability studies, German Idealism, posthumanism, and psychoanalysis. The book thus reflects the increasingly multifaceted intellectual landscape of contemporary music theory.

Die Einwanderungsbewegung, in der fast eine Million Syrer:innen innerhalb des letzten Jahrzehnts vor dem Krieg in ihrem Land geflohen und nach Deutschland immigriert sind, hat die Soundscapes deutscher Städte verändert. Auch Würzburg wird schon länger durch neue Klänge belebt. Im Stadtteil Frauenland hört man aus den Lautsprechern des syrischen Bistros Firas Feinekost den Aleppinischen Sänger Adeeb al-Dayekh. Am Mainufer erschallen aus vorbeifahrenden Autos Dabke-Rhythmen. Und wer im Hofgarten der Residenz an den Fenstern des Instituts für Musikforschung vorbeispaziert, kann den Klängen der Oud lauschen, deren Spiel der aus as-Suwayda stammende Musiker Akhtam Abou Fakher seine Studierenden lehrt."Syrische Tonspuren in Würzburg", eine Kooperation des Lehrstuhls für Ethnomusikologie und der Studiensammlung Musikinstrumente & Medien an der Universität Würzburg, möchte diese Klänge dokumentieren und weiterführen. In seinem Zentrum stand eine Ausstellung, in der Objekte erkundet werden konnten - etwa Instrumente aus der Sammlung, ein Foto von Aleppos Umayyaden-Moschee aus dem Jahr 2009 oder ein Bild des Grafikdesigners Omar Shammah, das einen Liedtext der ägyptischen Sängerin Um Kulthum zu einer Erinnerung an seine Heimat umdeutet. Diese Objekte erzählen Geschichten, die zum einen nach Syrien, zum anderen an verschiedene Orte im heutigen Würzburg führen. Die Fäden dieser Geschichten verfolgt der vorliegende Band in einer Reihe von Spurensuchen, Reflexionen und Interviews.

This book aims to explore the anthology of Gospel Music as the primary resource, the songs which determined the factors behind building the identities of the natives of Zimbabwe. And they are as follows: Mali Music - Glory to the Lamb, Zimbabwe Lyrics by Bob Marley, We Are Family Lyrics by Spirit of Praise, Namata (Pray) by Mkhululi Bhebhe etc. Limpopo River song, Tomurumidza (We praise Him) Tembarami ft Wellington, Bayate lyrics by Tembalami ft zowie mutangadura and Primrose Njewa, Zulu song, Senzeni na? Song and Wasara Wasara (Delay and you will be left behind) lyrics by Mkhululi Bhebhe. Like other forms of Christian music, the creation, performance, significance, and even the definition of Gospel music varies according to culture and social context. Gospel music is composed and performed for many purposes, including aesthetic pleasure, religious or ceremonial purposes, and as an entertainment product for the marketplace.

This investigation of Polish, Jewish, and German sources demonstrates the roles of music in occupied Poland. Its former citizens had their access to music controlled by the Nazi Ministry of Propaganda. It was rationed as other goods, depending on racial (i.e. also legal) status. Official music performances served as a propagandistic tool to further divide the Nazi-segregated population. Music played clandestinely embodied resistance. It restored the sense of community and helped save musicians persecuted as Jews, like W¿adys¿aw Szpilman. The documents analyzed in the monograph confirm the dehumanization of prospective victims, mixed with a narcissistic self-righteous view of Nazi songs and propaganda ultimately led to the organized presence of music in the Holocaust sites.

Der Zweck der von dem bedeutenden Musikwissenschaftler Hugo Riemann neu entwickelten Lehrmethode beschreibt der Autor folgendermaßen: "Eine vernünftige Kunstlehre kann nur anstreben, die bequemste und nutzbringendste Form der Mitteilung dessen zu finden, was technisches Gemeingut der Künstler ist, das Verständnis des Faktur der Meisterwerke zu erschließen, den Prozess der Assimilation, der Aufnahme des von andern geleisteten in das eigene Vorstellungsvermögen zu erleichtern, überhaupt die Phantasie zu üben und vor Ein­seitigkeit zu bewahren." (Vorwort) Dies gilt auch für die hier vorliegende kleinere Schrift zur Modulationslehre. Nachdruck der Originalausgabe aus dem Jahr 1887.

Focusing on runyege, the main traditional performance genre of the Banyoro and Batooro people, this book explores the entanglement of traditional music, dance, and theater with gender and postcolonialism in Western Uganda.

Für den Musiktheoretiker Heinrich Schenker (1868 - 1935) stand "das 'Meisterwerk in der Musik' (so der Titel einer seiner Zeitschriften) im Zentrum. In zahlreichen Analysen von Werken großer Komponisten (Bach bis Brahms) legte er die tragende Struktur tonaler Musik nach seinen Schemata von 'Urlinie' und 'Ursatz' dar. So legte Schenker mit dem hier vorliegenden Werk eine profunde "Darstellung des Inhaltes unter fortlaufender Berücksichtigung auch des Vortrages und der Literatur" vor: "So musste naturgemäß mein erstes Ziel sein, den musikalischen Inhalt des Werkes darzustellen. Als nicht minder naturgemäß schloss sich dann das nächste zweite Ziel an, auf Grund der durch die Analyse gewonnenen neuen Ergebnisse die entsprechend veränderte Vortrags­art mindestens soweit festzulegen, als es Worte in solchem Falle immerhin auszudrücken gestatten. Nun aber galt es drittens, das Resultat der Analyse sicher zu stellen und vor Missverständnissen zu bewahren ... (Untertitel und Vorrede) Nachdruck der Originalausgabe aus dem Jahr 1912.

In the third and final book of his iconic piano etudes György Ligeti charts a new path relative to the rest of his musical output, representing a significant arrival in a composer¿s oeuvre known for its stylistic transformations. This monograph is the first dedicated study of these capstone works, investigating them through a novel lens of statistical-graphical analysis that illuminates their compositional uniqueness as well as broader questions regarding the perception of stability in musical texture.With nearly 200 graphical illustrations and a detailed commentary, this examination reveals the unique manner in which Ligeti treads between tonality and atonality¿a key idea in his late style¿and the centrality of processes related to broader scale areas (or ¿macroharmony¿) in articulating structures and narratives. The analytical techniques developed here are a powerful tool for investigating macroharmonic stability that can be applied to a wide range of repertoire beyond these works.This book is intended for graduate-level and professional music theorists, musicologists, performers and mathematicians.

Guido Adler (1855 - 1941), Musikwissenschaftler und Begründer der "Wiener Musikwissenschaft", nennt als Ziel des hier vorliegenden Werkes: "Mit den vorliegenden Erörterungen sollen Beiträge gegeben werden zur Untersuchung über die Prinzipien der Stilbehand­lung, die Arten musikalischen Stiles und in weiterer Folge über die geschichtlichen Etappen der stilistischen Entwicklung der Tonkunst." Nachdruck der Originalausgabe aus dem Jahr 1911.

From rock’n’roll to contemporary pop, Mixing Pop and Politics is a provocative and entertaining mash-up of music and Marxist theory.A radical history of the political and social upheavals of the last 70 years, told through the period's most popular music.Mixing Pop and Politics is not a history of political music, but a political history of popular music. Spanning the early 50s to the present, it shows how, from doo-wop to hip-hop, punk to crunk and grunge to grime, music has both reflected and resisted the political events of its era.Mixing Pop and Politics explores the connections between popular music and political ideology, whether that’s the liberation of rock’n’roll or the containment of girl groups, the refusal of glam or the resignation of soft rock, the solidarity of disco or the individualism of 80s pop.At a time when reactionary forces are waging political war in the realm of culture, and we’re being told to keep politics out of music, Mixing Pop and Politics is a timely, original and joyful exploration of popular music’s role in our society.

Dem Musikwissenschaftler, Musiktheoretiker und Komponisten Adolf Bernhard Marx (1795 - 1866) ging es in dem hier vorliegenden Werk um "... die Fragen von Bedeutung und Wert der Tonkunst und ihrer Verbreitung , von der Bedeutung ihrer frühem Schöpfungen, die Frage nach der ihr vielleicht beschiedenen Zukunft ... Als Lehrer und für Lehrer fasse ich diese Fragen, und suche sie fruchtbar zu machen nicht bloß für Erkenntnis im Allgemeinen, sondern tatsächlich für Bestand und Pflege der Kunst."
