Hardback. Condizione: New. Details the wide, integral and influential role played by 'amateur' participants in early nineteenth-century Vienna's musical life.During Franz Schubert's lifetime in early nineteenth-century Vienna, amateurs and dilettantes were a vital part of the music scene, so much so that Eduard Hanslick considered it the high point of musical dilettantism in Vienna. Schubert himself participated extensively in this rich world of domestic music-making. Around 1800 terms such as "amateur" and "dilettante" had broader and more positive connotations than today, and "amateurs" could indeed often portray a high skill level. The book considers the amateurs' and dilettantes' identities and motivations for making music, and their various roles in the musical life of early nineteenth-century Vienna. It dives deeply into contexts, performance practices and spaces, as well as instruments that have so far been little explored. Musical Amateurs in Schubert's Vienna uncovers new key agents in early nineteenth-century Viennese musical life who have so far remained invisible.…

Hardback. Condizione: New. By carefully piecing together musical and documentary evidence, Amateur Musicians in the Nineteenth Century reveals the musicians that have so far been largely invisible in histories of music.Musical amateurs occupy an indistinct, low-status, peripheral place in musical life today. Often defined by what they are not and compared unfavorably to professionals, amateurs are found to lack expertise, qualifications, and status. This book critiques these exclusionary ideologies, interrogating the historical amateur as a clear identity, role, and status within musical life.The focus of this edited collection spans across Europe and out to New Zealand and Australia, covering a wide range of repertoire and genres and providing a comprehensive survey of amateur music-making and its significance in the broader musical culture of the nineteenth century. Rather than being opposed to professionals, amateurs were considered to overlap with them in terms of skill. Far from learning by rote a narrow selection of canonical studies and works, such amateurs cross-trained on various instruments, freely adapted popular tunes to their own purposes and skills, improvised on scores, and composed afresh. In not just an exploration of the past, but of the future, Amateur Musicians in the Nineteenth Century offers insights that are relevant today, particularly to the project of raising the status of amateurism in the best sense.…

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. This book investigates how education and participation shape musical identity across the amateurprofessional spectrum, reframing amateurism as a space of passion, dedication and authenticity rather than deficiency. It treats the amateurprofessional divide as a social constructmade in pedagogy and institutionsthen shows how teaching and learning can unsettle that divide in practice.Once celebrated for their intrinsic love of music, amateurs today are often dismissed as lacking skill or seriousness. This edited collection challenges that narrative by foregrounding the unique value of amateur music-making and by demonstrating why many of the same pedagogies that empower amateurs also strengthen professional practice. Through diverse case studies and theoretical perspectives, it highlights the formative experiences, pedagogical practices and community contexts that shape musicians journeys. Across the chapters, this volume shows what musicians are taught, how they are taught and the dynamics that support their development in settings from secondary schools and examination systems to studio teaching and community ensembles. Topics such as motivation, repertoire and leadership appear alongside broader themes like the amateurprofessional divide and the social role of music. Vocal music and choral settingsoften central to amateur music-makingreceive special focus in the later chapters.This book is intended for scholars and advanced students in music education, pedagogy, sociology and cultural studies. It will also resonate with music teachers, conductors and arts policymakers interested in supporting inclusive and meaningful musical engagement. While many chapters center on Aotearoa New Zealand, the themes and insights hold international relevance for contexts where amateur music-making thrivesacross Europe, North America, East Asia and Australia. This volume contributes to underexplored scholarship on amateur musicianship and advocates for a more equitable and expansive view of musical life.Chapters 1 and 3 of this book are freely available as a downloadable Open Access PDF at under a Creative Commons [Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC BY-NC-ND)] 4.0 license.
