Manfred Angerer -- Gesammelte Schriften Und Vortrage

The Viennese musicologist Manfred Angerer (1953-2010) is considered to be one of the most stimulating scholars of his generation. The volume contains a representative selection of his writings, including numerous essays, miscellanea, and unpublished lectures that have appeared elsewhere. Manfred Angerer was one of the most distinguished musicologists of his generation. The volume provides an insight into his literary legacy and brings together larger and smaller works, specifically on the history of music from the 18th to the 20th century. At the center of the problem outlines unfolded against a broad educational horizon is the music itself in all its manifestations (including areas neglected by the guild such as the operetta or Jewish cantoral music) - music in its respective compositional characteristics and its development, as an artistic activity and as an aesthetic experience . Particular attention is paid to speaking and writing about music as a challenge in its own right and, in connection with this, to the specific conditions and tasks of the subject of musicology. As a charismatic teacher and speaker, Angerer has had a lasting influence on a whole range of younger musicians and music experts with his individual approach and the multifaceted nature of his reflections.
