What reading level is Miniature Essays Igor Stravinsky book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But Stravinsky can at will abandon the three dimensions and give us a perfectly satisfiying study in mere contour, such as we get in the three pieces for solo clarinet.
An entirely new conception is the ballet-divertis- sement, " Les Noces, " where in addition to an orchestra from which string instruments are excluded, there are four solo voices and a chorus supporting the whole fabric of sound, sometimes alternately and sometimes in combination, without a single interruption throughout the who...le work. The music of the Noces, like all the later works by Stravinsky, is directly and exclusively written to satisfy the auditive faculty of the hearer and it is thus a new afl&rmation of the reaction against the subjective expression in music that has so many adepts among the greatest composers of the nineteenth and the opening of the present century. If he can be compared to any older masters, he certainly has far more affinity with Haydn and Mozart than with any nineteenth century composer, and it is less surprising than those who are but superficially acquainted with his work might be inclined to think, that he should have found a very congenial task in composing on the basis of some pieces by Pergolesi the ballet of " Pulcinella, " a task of which he acquitted himself with a delicacy and a reverence that none but a kindred spirit could have achieved.
