[ePub] Cowboy Songs Songbook: Guitar Chord Songbook (Guitar Chord Songbooks) by Hal Leonard Corp. in Arts-Photography

Description

Audiences as well as other artists have responded to Franz Schuberts music with passion; both during his time and in the past two centuries. Musicians; painters; writers; and filmmakers have all found a connection with him; integrating his music into their own works in ways that have given their works greater depth. Our Schubert: His Enduring Legacy examines Schubert and the ways audiences and artists―both his contemporaries and their descendents―relate to him; analyzing some of the uses of Schuberts music and providing an intimate portrait of the man.Divided into two parts; part one focuses on Schuberts own time; discussing many aspects of Schuberts life and the effects they had on his compositions; such as the special importance and personal function Schuberts songs held for the composer and their effect on his other works; his association with his contemporaries; and the subtleties of his political activism. Part two considers Schuberts legacy; investigating the composers ability to arouse passion in other artists through the intervening years to the present. This fascinating study includes several photos as well as a select bibliography and discography that include the works discussed.
