Recenzii
'Tim Howell's After Sibelius: Studies in Finnish Music is the first scholarly general treatise in English focusing on Finnish musical modernism and contemporary music. Due to this unique position alone, it is likely to become a canonic piece of work...The book is full of well-chosen music examples closely connected with the analytical discourse and clear formal charts that help to follow Howell's argument... Howell's book has convinced me of his analytical skills and innovative interpretations of Finnish modern music. For these merits his book certainly deserves referential status.' Finnish Music Quarterly ’... a useful reference work which should find a place on the shelves of progressive music libraries... After Sibelius is a welcome publication.’ Classical Music ’After Sibelius is one of the best books on Finnish contemporary music... Howell has indeed been successful in making these composers and their works better known.’ Notes ’... an important addition to recent scholarship. It is an elegant, concise, and penetrating work that places this music within a larger European context while addressing the difficult question of what is 'Finnishness' in music.’ Music Research Forum
Descriere
The seemingly disproportionate creative energy from the small country of Finland defies prevalent trends in the production of classical music. Tim Howell provides an engaging investigation into Finnish music and combines elements of composer biography and detailed analysis within the broader context of cultural and national identity. The book consists of a collection of eight individual composer studies that investigate the historical position and compositional characteristics of a representative selection of leading figures. These potentially self-contained studies subscribe to a larger picture, which explains the Sibelian legacy, the effect of this considerable influence on subsequent generations and its lasting consequences: an internationally acclaimed school of contemporary music.
