Answer:
Claude Debussy was a famed composer from the early 20th century and was know as the first impressionist composer. in 1873 he entered the Paris Conservatory, and in 1884, he won the Grand Prix de Rome with his cantata L’Enfant prodigue (The Prodigal Child). His early style is well illustrated in one of Debussy’s best-known compositions, Clair de lune. Debussy’s illegitimate daughter, Claude-Emma, was born in 1905. He had divorced Lily Texier in 1904 and then married his daughter’s mother, Emma Bardac. Ashamed by the gossip and scandal coming from this situation, he sought rescue for a time at Eastbourne, on the south coast of England. He wrote the piano suite Children’s Corner (1908) for his daughter, nicknamed Chouchou). His formulation of the “21-note scale” was designed to “drown” the sense of tonality. In his last works, the piano pieces En blanc et noir, (1915; In Black and White) and in the Douze Études (1915; “Twelve Études”), Debussy moved into forms of composition that would later be developed in the styles of Stravinsky and the Hungarian composer Béla Bartók.
Answer:
no
Explanation:
his article might have been entitled "The Composer as Specialist" or, alternatively, and perhaps less contentiously, "The Composer as Anachronism." For I am concerned with stating an attitude towards the indisputable facts of the status and condition of the composer of what we will, for the moment, designate as "serious," "advanced," contemporary music. This composer expends an enormous amount of time and energy- and, usually, considerable money- on the creation of a commodity which has little, no, or negative commodity value. He is, in essence, a "vanity" composer. The general public is largely unaware of and uninterested in his music. The majority of performers shun it and resent it. Consequently, the music is little performed, and then primarily at poorly attended concerts before an audience consisting in the main of fellow 'professionals'. At best, the music would appear to be for, of, and by specialists.
Towards this condition of musical and societal "isolation," a variety of attitudes has been expressed, usually with the purpose of assigning blame, often to the music itself, occasionally to critics or performers, and very occasionally to the public. But to assign blame is to imply that this isolation is unnecessary and undesirable. It is my contention that, on the contrary, this condition is not only inevitable, but potentially advantageous for the composer and his music. From my point of view, the composer would do well to consider means of realizing, consolidating, and extending the advantages.
Answer:
False
Explanation:
I am pretty sure false because if you look at logos they all change over time, but their overall style is kept. I don't want to be unhelpful, but this question could go either way.
Robert Adam
was a Scottish architect. He spent a lot of time studying in Italy.
While he was there a large
amount of excavation work was taking place, especially around Pompeii. These
excavations and findings of the 1750’s had a large influence on his work.
When he
returned to England he became the Court Architect to George III. There were
already changes happening in the Georgian furniture, the flowing curves, the
ornate carving. Adam brought back the simple classical lines of the Roman and
Greek Styles.
The people
then turned to Adam’s simple straight lines and simple moldings. He started the
new Neo Classical style.
Robert Adam (1728–92) was one of the most
important British architects working in the Neo-classical style. He was a main
force in the development of a unified style that extended beyond architecture
and interiors to include both the fixed and moveable objects in a room. He
incorporated design ideas from ancient Greece and Rome into his forms and
decoration. His famous London houses include Kenwood House, Osterley Park and
Syon House.
Born in Kirkaldy, Scotland, Robert Adam was
the son of the established architect William Adam, and followed him into the
family practice. In 1754 he embarked on a ‘Grand Tour’, spending five years in
France and Italy visiting classical sites and studying architecture. On his
return Adam established his own practice in London with his brother James.
Although classical architecture was already becoming popular, Adam developed
his own style, known as the Adam style or Adamesque. This style was influenced
by classical design but did not follow Roman architectural rules as strictly as
Palladianism did.
