What is Concerto Conversations: With a 68-minute CD (The Charles Eliot Norton Lectures) about?

The Concerto Has Attracted Relatively Little Attention As A Genre, Joseph Kerman Observes, And His Urbane And Wide-ranging Norton Lectures Fill The Gap In A Way That Will Delight All Music Listeners. Kerman Addresses The Full Range Of The Concerto Repertory, Treating Both The General And The Particular. Concertos Model Human Relationships, According To Kerman, And His Description Of The Conversation Between Solo Instrument And Orchestra Brings This Observation Vividly To Life. What Does The Solo Instrument Do When It First Enters In A Concerto? How Do Composers Balance Claims Of Solo-orchestra Contrast And Solo Virtuosity? When Do They Deploy The Sumptuous Musical Textures That Only Concertos Can Provide? Kerman's Unexpected Answers Offer A New Understanding Of The Concerto And A Stimulus To Enhanced Listening.--book Jacket.
