Musical paradoxes
14.99 €
The new book by renowned lecturer, musician, and educator Mikhail Kazinik continues to fight the stereotype that listening to classical music is difficult and boring if you have no special education, and includes three main components - paradoxes, humor, and music. In this book, Mikhail Kazinik recounts important episodes in the biographies of composers of three centuries, from Heinrich von Biber to Alfred Schnittke. He draws attention to little-known facts and analyzes musical works, which you can immediately listen to by using the QR codes given in the book. How many people know that one of the most famous romances of Russian music was written in prison by its author, Alexander Alyabiev? And that Saint-Saëns was a prodigy, the Mozart of the XIX century, and also a passionate traveler? The whole history of music is a history of paradoxes. Not only because each genius is unique and inimitable. Their very existence is already paradoxical. Mikhail Kazinik is convinced that the future of mankind is not in evil, hatred and bile, but in music and knowledge, goodness and love.
