Mozart in Vienna
Mozart spent the last ten years of his life in Vienna, after leaving the employment of Prince-Archbishop Colloredo of Salzburg in 1781. During that time he composed arguably the most significant of his works, including such monumental operas as Le nozze di Figaro, Don Giovanni, Così fan tutte, and Die Zauberflöte, along with an impressive series of piano concertos, the late symphonies, and numerous chamber works, among them the ‘Haydn’ and ‘Pruss…

Discoveries from the Fortepiano
Do modern pianists perform the works of the Classical masters with little or no regard for (or even knowledge of) eighteenth-century understandings of how its musical language functions? Do they realize that this was an exceptionally nuanced language, capable of expressing a wide range of emotions within the typical, and perhaps all-too-predictable, framework of symmetrical two-, four-, and eight-bar phrases? Do they labour at their Steinways, Fa…

"Er hat geschmack, und über das die größte Compositionswissenschaft"
Leopold Mozart's letter to his daughter of 16 February 1785, describing a performance of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's latest string quartets in the presence of Joseph Haydn claims that Haydn considered Mozart to have taste, and also a profound knowledge of composition. Contrasting interpretations of this statement are considered, including the relationship between taste and compositional technique, involving discussion of some sketches for Mozart's …

Mozart
The six string quartets dedicated to his friend Joseph Haydn represent a turning point in Mozart's compositional development. In addition to providing a full synopsis of each quartet this book examines the music in relation to Mozart's earlier quartets, considers the genesis of the six 'Haydn' quartets through close examination of the autograph revisions and looks at contemporary eighteenth-century analytical models. John Irving also charts the r…
Under the Microscope
Mozart's Piano Sonatas
Mozart's piano sonatas form a richly diverse and significant part of his instrumental output, and span much of his mature composing career, thereby representing a microcosm of the composer's changing style. Part I examines the contexts in which the sonatas were composed and performed, and reviews likely sources of influence. Part II concentrates on the genesis of the sonatas and the surviving autographs, which reveal important information about M…

Cassettes, Films, and the Partner System
A one‐unit conversational module of an elementary German class was used as a pilot for an innovative method which sought to increase the student's fluency and interest by deemphasizing the role of the teacher as drill‐master and stressing student communication on a one‐to‐one basis. The class was divided into pairs of students who worked together as partners throughout the semester. Each set of partners received an audio cassette containing ‘pers…
The Social Credit Movement in Alberta
Professor Irving's book indicates how the apparent suddenness of the Social Credit rise to power and the magnitude of the victory aroused world-wide comment. He analyses systematically and comprehensively the rise of the movement as a phenomenon of mass psychology.
