Product Description
"A Composer's Notes: Remembering Miklós Rózsa" by Jeffrey Dane
About the Author
Jeffrey Dane is a music historian and researcher. A role-model and significant influence on him during his formative years was Leonard Bernstein. He’s perceived by some as overly confrontational and thusly a real idealist, and by others as insufficiently engaged and thusly an ideal realist. Both views have merit.
"A Composer's Notes: Remembering Miklós Rózsa" by Jeffrey Dane
A special Recollection, written to commemorate the 2007 centenary of the composer's birth on April 18, 1907.
Miklós Rózsa composed the music for nearly 100 films. In this book, the author shares his own personal remembrances of the composer, the private vignettes he witnessed, specific anecdotes, personal photos, and facsimiles of Rózsa's manuscripts. The author also presents some of the private correspondence between him and the composer over a more than 20-year period, including photographic copies of the innumerable handwritten letters and notes he received from Dr. Rózsa during the decades of their friendship. These missives outline the evolution of the camaraderie and rapport that developed between the two men, offer insight into the kind of relationship between them, and reveal features of the composer's own character. The author began his connection with Rózsa as a fan but ultimately became an earnest student first of Rózsa's film music and then of his concert music - and, eventually, a friend.
