The Style Hongrois in the Music of Western Europe
The Style Hongrois in the Music of Western Europe
Editorial Reviews
Choice
"This work includes a valuable survey of nineteenth-century stereotypes of the Gypsies as a basis for an extensive and convincing discussion of the possible extramusical meanings that Western composers were trying to express. Bellman's meticulously described lexicon of the musical gestures used by composers to cue the style is an important and much needed contribution to musicology; it thoroughly defines the style hongrois as a musical topic."
Book Description
This volume examines the roots of the style hongrois in the performance practices of the Gypsies and details its exploitation in the works of composers such as Schubert, Brahms, and Liszt.
