Die Gruppe 47 ist zu einem Markenzeichen geworden. Jeder nimmt Bezug auf diese von Hans Werner Richter 1947 ins Leben gerufene lose Schriftstellervereinigung. Jeder hat eine Vorstellung von ihrer Wirkung. Helmut Bouml;ttiger legt nun den ersten umfassenden Uuml;berblick uuml;ber die Geschichte dieser Institution vor; die unseren Literaturbetrieb erfunden und die politische Ouml;ffentlichkeit Nachkriegsdeutschlands mitgeprauml;gt hat. Bei nauml;herer Betrachtung wird aber klar: Vieles von dem; was man zu wissen glaubt; verkehrt sich ins Gegenteil. Die Gruppe 47 war erstaunlich pluralistisch; Paul Celan hatte ihr seinen Erfolg zu verdanken; und wenn es eine Symbolfigur fuuml;r die Mechanismen der Gruppe 47 gibt; heiszlig;t sie viel eher Hans Magnus Enzensberger als Guuml;nter Grass. Durch die Auswertung vieler bisher unbekannter Dokumente und Gesprauml;che mit Zeitzeugen entsteht ein lebendiges Bild der Fruuml;hgeschichte der BRD: von den Schwierigkeiten; die Prauml;gungen durch den Nationalsozialismus abzustreifen; bis zu einem neuen; prekauml;ren Wechselspiel zwischen Literatur; Markt und Mediengesellschaft; das bis heute anhauml;lt. Es ist an der Zeit; die Urspruuml;nge kennenzulernen!

A fantastic resource!By John FranklinThis book is a much-needed contemporary resource for the modern wind band conductor; performer; student; or music historian. A glance at the contributors names is all that is needed to know that each work has been selected according to the highest standards of musical artistry and craftsmanship. That it includes chamber works for winds and not just full band compositions is a refreshing approach to the growing lexicon of "top" lists of significant wind literature.The brief commentary; easy-to-read layout; and incipit information makes this a unique publication useful for a variety of readers. For example; it is an affirmation for the experienced conductor of what has commonly been accepted as the core repertoire of wind literature. For the young music student learning to select quality wind music; it provides the wisdom of leading wind conductors. Not only is it a great text for courses in wind literature; but it is a GREAT resource for those who teach traditional music history courses. While most music history texts are woefully void of wind literature in their discussions; this text can provide an easy list of works that can be included along with the traditional study of the great symphonies; sonatas; operas; etc. In fact; one might be pleasantly surprised to find that many of the works in this lexicon written originally for winds were composed by such well-known composers as Aaron Copland; Anton Dvorak; W.A. Mozart; and Igor Stravinsky!I highly recommend this book for anyone serious about wind music or music history in general! It is a gold mine of information at an unbelievably low price!0 of 7 people found the following review helpful. Wow!By Stu DentLet me start out by saying I no longer keep tract of time in the normal sense. There is only my life before this book; and my life after this book. This book is a real page-turner. I remember my lips were bleeding because I just couldnt put it down!!! Ive read a few rumors online that there is a possible sequel in the works.
