Paul Witteman Hoor en wederhoor
de klassieke keuze van Paul Witteman
Paul Witteman is journalist, televisiepresentator en columnist. Maar hij is ook een bevlogen liefhebber van klassieke muziek. Afkomstig uit de muzikale familie Andriessen is hij al vroeg thuisgeraakt in de wondere wereld der klanken. Het jongenskoor in de kerk, de pianoles in de puberteit en een blauwe maandag op het conservatorium, maakten de hartstocht wakker. Al jaren schreef en schrijft Witteman onder andere in het Volkskrant Magazine over zijn passie. In Hoor en wederhoor geeft hij een strikt...

Henk van Gelder De schnabbeltoer
het Nederlandse amusement in de wederopbouwjaren
Jarenlang bestond voor duizenden Nederlanders een feestavond uit een programma met een conferencier, een accordeonduo, een rolschaatsnummer, een goochelaar, een jongleur, een zanger of zangeres en liefst ook nog een kunstfluiter. Vanaf 1945 tot in de jaren zestig, tot de klad er in kwam, reisden vel honderden artiesten naar alle uithoeken van het land, om steeds weer in onverwachte situaties te belanden - al was het maar de afwezigheid van een kleedkamer of een ongestemde piano. Bron: Flaptekst,...

Barend Schuurman J.S Bach
Matthäus-Passion; over de achtergronden van het libretto
Meer dan veertig jaar is Barend Schuurman al gefascineerd door het werk van Bach. Als dirigent raakte hij ook steeds meer geïnteresseerd in de achtergronden van het libretto in samenhang en wisselwerking met Bachs muziek. Hierbij ontdekte Schuurman dat maar weinig zangers raad wisten met de teksten van Bach. Vaak wist men niet om wie of wat het handelde in het libretto. Voor alle Bach-liefhebbers is dit dan ook een uniek boek dat meer inzicht zal geven in het werk van de meester. Bron: Flaptekst,...

Kadoc Territories of faith
religion, urban planning and demographic change in post-war Europe
In the 1950s and 1960s, thousands of churches were built across Europe in an attempt to keep up with the continent's rapid urbanisation. This book addresses the immense effort related to the planning, financing, and construction of this new religious infrastructure. Going beyond aspects of style and liturgy, and transcending a focus on particular architects or regions, this volume considers church building at the crossroads of pastoral theology, religious sociology, and urban planning. Presenting...

Sarah Hegenbart From Bayreuth to Burkina Faso
Christoph Schlingensief’s Opera Village Africa as postcolonial Gesamtkunstwerk?
Opera Village Africa, a participatory art experiment by the late German multimedia artist Christoph Schlingensief, serves as a testing ground for a critical interrogation of Richard Wagner's notion of the Gesamtkunstwerk. Sarah Hegenbart traces the path from Wagner's introduction of the Gesamtkunstwerk in Bayreuth to Schlingensief's attempt to charge the idea of the total artwork with new meaning by transposing it to the West African country Burkina Faso. Schlingensief developed Opera Village in...

Olga Smith Contemporary photography in France
between theory and practice
This compelling publication traces the broad arc of photography's development in France from the 1970s to the present day. A decade-by-decade account reveals unexpected points of convergence between practices that are not usually considered in a comparative perspective. These include photographic practices in contemporary art, documentary, photojournalism, and fashion. Author Olga Smith sets these practices in dialogue with French philosophy - the writings of Roland Barthes, Jean Baudrillard, and...

Orpheus Institute Sound work
composition as critical technical practice
The practices and perception of music creation have evolved with the cultural, social and technological contexts of music and musicians. But musical authorship, in its many technical and aesthetic modes, remains an important component of music culture. Musicians are increasingly called on to share their experience in writing. However, cultural imperatives to account for composition as knowledge production and to make claims for its uniqueness inhibit the development of discourse in both expert and...

The Art of Being Dangerous offers many different images of women, some humorous, some challenging, some well-known, some forgotten, but all unique. In a dazzling variety of creative forms, artists and writers of diverse identities explore what...

Photography’s materialities
transatlantic photographic practices over the long nineteenth century
There is little dispute that photography is a material practice, and that the photograph itself is ineluctably material. And yet "matter," "material," and "materiality" have proven to be remarkably elusive terms of inquiry, frequently producing studies that are disparate in scope, sharing seemingly little common ground. Although the wide methodological range of materialist study can be dizzying, it is this book's contention that that multiplicity is also the field's greatest asset, keeping materialist...

Orpheus Institute Experience music experiment
pragmatism and artistic research
"Truth happens to an idea." So wrote William James in 1907; and twenty-four years later John Dewey argued that artistic experience entailed a process of "doing and undergoing." But what do these ideas have to do with music, or with research conducted in and through music-that is, with "artistic research"? In this collection of essays, fourteen very different authors respond with distinct and challenging perspectives. Some report on their own experiments and experiences; some offer probing analyses...
