À propos de cet audio
The twentieth century was the century of modernity. Classical music flourished, and yet when we reflect on the genre’s history its central figures seem to share three characteristics: they were white, male and western.
Sound Within Sound is the impassioned and exhilarating story of the composers who dared to challenge the conventional world of classical music in the twentieth century. Traversing the globe from Ethiopia and the Philippines to Mexico, Russia and beyond, Kate Molleson tells the stories of ten figures who altered the course of musical history, only to be sidelined and denied recognition during an era that systemically favoured certain sounds – and people – over others.
A celebration of radical creativity rooted in ideas of protest, gender, race, ecology and resistance, Sound Within Sound is an energetic reappraisal of twentieth-century classical music that opens up the world far beyond its established centres, challenges stereotypical portrayals of the genre and shatters its traditional canon.
Ce que les critiques en disent
“The vividness and passion of Molleson’s portraits of these ten extraordinarily gifted, exasperating, headstrong individuals is wonderfully engaging.” —Daily Telegraph
“Clever and accessible. . . . Sound Within Sound introduces us to thrilling dreamers from the last century who believed that music could fundamentally – and disruptively – recalibrate our lives. . . . It focuses our ears on the brilliant stuff that survives, encouraging us to dig deeper and keep listening.” —The Guardian
“Wonderful . . . This is a book of discovery that speaks of music as a life force, that urges us to live our lives through music.” —Cosey Fanni Tutti
“The fierce music of Kate Molleson’s prose demands that we think differently about the accepted classical music canon. Here is a marvellous book that opens our ears to sonic worlds that will enrich and delight us, whoever and wherever we are.” —Ian McMillan
“A clear-eyed, utterly fascinating exploration of outsiders in classical music. Molleson’s excellent book challenges and enlightens.” —Sinéad Gleeson
“An urgent, dazzling, ear-opening demand to explode and remake the musical canon . . . Everyone who loves music should own this book.” —Charlotte Higgins
“Sound Within Sound is a necessary and deeply humane reshaping of music histories. It undoes the narrowing constraints of the classical canon, leaving the culture – and the reader – beautifully enriched.” —Emma Warren
