Alfred Mann, Bach Handel Choral Music Practice, SIGNED Musicology

Description: Alfred Mann, Bach Handel Choral Music Practice, SIGNED Musicology Bach and Handel Choral Performance Practice by Alfred Mann Hinshaw Music, Inc., Chapel Hill, 1990. First edition. Soft covers, octavo, 118 pages, musical examples. Inscribed by the Author on the title page. Alfred Mann was born in Hamburg, Germany, on April 28, 1917. He studied in Milan and in Berlin, and then taught at the Berlin Hochschule (1937) and at Milan's Scuola Musicale (1938). From 1939-1942 he studied and taught at the Curtis Institute; he later received the MA and PhD degrees from Columbia University (1950, 1955). In 1947 he joined the faculty of Rutgers University, where he taught until 1980, when he came to Eastman; he was appointed Professor Emeritus of Musicology in 1987, but remained active at Eastman until he moved to Indiana. Alfred Mann was also a noted choral conductor; his recordings of Handel's six Chandos Anthems, made with the Rutgers Collegium Musicium for Vanguard Records in the 1960s, were acclaimed by critics, and he conducted widely in America and in Germany. In 1961, he became director of publications of the American Choral Foundation, editing American Choral Review from 1962-1999. Mann was widely respected for his research and writing on the history of music theory, particularly the teaching of counterpoint. His translation of a seminal work of contrapuntal theory, J. J. Fux's Gradus ad Parnassum (1725), was published in 1943 as Steps to Parnassus, and in 1965 as The Study of Counterpoint. Mann's other books include Theory and Practice: The Great Composers as Teachers and Students and Bach and Handel: Choral Performance Practice. Mann edited a critical edition of Handel's Messiah, among many other choral works. In 1997 he was made an honorary member of the International Bach Society - only the third American to be so honored.
