Tuotetiedot

Musical Performance in Context celebrates the 30th anniversary of the fi rst Doctor of Music graduations in 1990 at the Sibelius Academy of the University of the Arts Helsinki. Wide-ranging in its orientation, the book consists of ten essays that elucidate areas and topics with which the DocMus Doctoral School of the Faculty of Classical Music has been engaged over the years. All the essays address, in one way or another, issues of musical performance, covering this concept very widely. The authors are current and former faculty members, or scholars and artists who have cooperated with the Sibelius Academy. Complementing the scholarly essays, two introductions and fi ve reminiscences give background on the early stages of doctoral education at the Sibelius Academy and recall personal experiences over the years.

Hatten; Matti Huttunen; Mieko Kanno and Sam Hayden; Anne Kauppala; Tuire Kuusi, Ivan Jimenez, and Matthew Schulkind; Tomi Mäkelä; Juha Ojala; Peter Peitsalo; Lauri Suurpää; and Giovanni Verrando.
