It establishes a background on the time span-1725 to 1815-offering a context for the music made during one of the more vibrant periods of achievement in history. Outlining how music interacted with society, politics, and the arts of that time, this kaleidescopic approach presents an overview of how the various genres expanded during the period, not just in the major musical centers but around the globe. Contemporaneous treatises and commentary documenting these changes are integrated into the narrative.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFeatures include the following: \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA complete course with musical scores on the companion website, plus links to recordings-and no need to purchase a separate anthology\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eThe development of style and genres within a broader historical framework\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eExtensive musical examples from a wide range of composers, considered in context of the genre\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eA thorough collection of illustrations, iconography, and art relevant to the music of the age\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSource documents translated by the author\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eValuable student learning aids throughout, including a timeline, a register of people and dates, sidebars of political importance, and a selected reading list arranged by chapter and topic\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eA companion website featuring scores of all music discussed in the text, recordings of most musical examples, and tips for listening\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cp\u003eMusic in the Classical World: Genre, Culture, and History tells the story of classical music through eighteenth-century eyes, exposing readers to the wealth of music and musical styles of the time and providing a glimpse into that vibrant and active world of the Classical Period.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBertil van Boer\u003c\/strong\u003e is Professor of Musicology-Theory and former Dean of the College of the Fine and Performing Arts at Western Washington University, USA.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 322\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.8 x 9.9 x 7.9 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 15, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53100007227699,"sku":"9781138503847","price":126.86,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/M2o2eTVzQXpwMUVpZEtOUThObDloQT09.webp?v=1772481831","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/music-in-the-classical-world-genre-culture-and-history-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
