Grandeur et finesse
Chopin, Liszt and the Parisian Musical Scene
Edited by Luca Sala
Due to its plethora of concert halls, publishing houses and piano factories, Paris was one of the leading European capitals of nineteenth-century piano music, able to attract the greatest interpreters of the bravura tradition. The present book takes as its subject the significance and output of the two-composer-pianists mentioned in the title, approaching them from historical, analytical and aesthetical points of view. In so doing the book encompasses many aspects of the Parisian musical scene in which the two composers were involved or to which they were in some way connected. The authors featured are: Michele Calella, Celine Carenco, Andrew Davis, Mariacarla De Giorgi, Christoph Flamm, James Garrat, Ines Guittard, Andrew Haringer, Magdalena Oliferko, Anne Penesco, Cecile Reynaud, David Rowland, Michael Saffle, Laure Schnapper, Rohan H. Stewart-MacDonald, Renata Suchowiejko, Corey Tu, Andrzej Tuchowski.
