Omschrijving

The Present State of Music in France and Italy: Or The Journal of a Tour Through Those Countries (1773) is a book written by Charles Burney. The book is a detailed account of Burney's travels through France and Italy in the 18th century, where he investigated the state of music in those countries. Burney was a renowned music historian and composer, and his observations and insights into the music scene in France and Italy during this time provide a fascinating glimpse into the musical culture of the day. The book is organized as a series of journal entries, in which Burney describes his travels, the people he meets, and the music he hears. He visits many important musical institutions, such as the Paris Opera and the Conservatoire de Paris, and meets with prominent musicians and composers of the day, including Gluck and Mozart. Burney also comments on the social and political context of music in France and Italy, discussing the role of music in courtly life and its relationship to the broader cultural and political landscape.Overall, The Present State of Music in France and Italy is an important historical document that provides valuable insights into the musical culture of 18th-century Europe. Burney's observations and commentary are informed by his deep knowledge of music history and theory, and his writing is engaging and informative. The book is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of music in Europe, and it remains a valuable resource for scholars and music enthusiasts alike.Undertaken To Collect Materials For A General History Of Music.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
