The latest installment in the Eastman Studies in Music series is on our new books shelf this week: Beyond ‘The Art of Finger Dexterity’: Reassessing Carl Czerny, edited by distinguished Duke Department of Music Ph.D., David Gramit. Stop by and have a look through this collection of essays exploring the life and art of Carl Czerny, hidden for generations behind his widely used technical exercises for piano. You will find essays on everything from Czerny’s cultural circle in Vienna to his promotion of Beethoven’s works, as well as studies of performance practice issues and analysis of Czerny’s own works from string quartets to church music.
This item will be available for circulation on June 25, 2008.
