Musical Composition - A Short Treatise for Students
First published in 1911, "Musical Composition - A Short Treatise for Students" is fantasist guide to music teaching for teachers written by master composer and instructor Charles Villiers Stanford. It constitutes a general rather than comprehensive guide, touching upon many subjects and offering priceless advice to those occupied in the teaching of music. Contents include: "Introductory", "Technique", "Rhythm", "Melodies and Their Simple Treatment", "The Complex Treatment of Melodies. Variation", "Form", "Colour", "The Treatment of Voices", "Extraneous Influences in Instrumental Music", "Danger Signals", etc. Sir Charles Villiers Stanford (1852 - 1924) was an Irish composer, conductor, and teacher of music. He was educated at the University of Cambridge and continued his studies in Berlin and Leipzig. He was a very influential composer, responsible for making Cambridge University Musical Society an internationally-acclaimed organisation. Stanford was also a profuse composer, producing a large corpus of work in many genres; however, he is perhaps best remembered for his Anglican choral works for church performance. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in a modern, high-quality edition complete with the original text and artwork.
