Conducting the Brahms Symphonies by Christopher Dyment
Requirements: .PDF reader, 11 MB
Overview: How did Brahms conduct his four symphonies? What did he want from other conductors when they performed these works, and to which among them did he give his approval? And crucially, are there any stylistic pointers to these performances in early recordings of the symphonies made in the first half of the twentieth century?
For the first time, Christopher Dyment provides a comprehensive and in-depth answer to these important issues. Drawing together the strands of existing research with extensive new material from a wide range of sources – the views of musicians, contemporary journals, memoirs, biographies and other critical literature – Dyment presents a vivid picture of historic performance practice in Brahms’s era and the half-century that followed.
