Author by: Jean Baptiste Arban Language: en Publisher by: Alfred Publishing Company Format Available: PDF, ePub, Mobi Total Read: 42 Total Download: 822 File Size: 55,8 Mb Description: Arban's variations on Carnival of Venice requires no introduction to cornet or trumpet players. This arrangement for quintet keeps the solo cornet part in its original form, but inserts an introduction and interludes taken from operas by Giuseppe Verdi that allow each of the quintet members to act as soloist during the interludes between variations. A great twist on this classic solo.

Simple themes or popular folk songs from a variety of cultures were used. The lyrical theme would be played, then a series of variations followed demonstrating the technical skill and virtuosity of the player.

Often triple tonguing and/or range extremes were used as showoff devices. The most famous of these cornet theme and variations is the Carnival of Venice. Author by: R.

Author by: Peter Burke Language: en Publisher by: Cambridge University Press Format Available: PDF, ePub, Mobi Total Read: 28 Total Download: 776 File Size: 53,8 Mb Description: Based on archival material from the cities of Genoa, Milan, Venice, Florence, Rome, and Naples, as well as on published sources, such as travel journals, and artistic representations, this volume presents an original view of the culture of early modern Italy. The book addresses particular themes - specifically those of perception and communication - as well as serving to exemplify modes of analysis in the currently developing field of historical anthropology. In the first part of the book, Peter Burke examines the stereotyped ways in which contemporaries perceived social groups such as saints, beggars, and working women, and shows how these stereotypes were used, consciously and unconsciously, both by the authorities and by ordinary people.
