Catherine Urner journeyed to Paris to study with Charles Koechlin after winning a prize for several years' study of music abroad. She studied with him from 1919-1921, when she returned to America and was appointed director of vocal music at Mills College. She continued to compose and give vocal recitals throughout California and made several more trips to Paris where her first string quartet premiered at Salle Pleyel in 1925. Urner arranged for Koechlin to come to the United States to teach a summer course in music at the University of California, Berkeley in 1928, and during this time their affaire became more intense and Koechlin persuaded her to return to France with him. Catherine lived with the Koechlin family until 1933. Koechlin harmonized many of her melodies and they collaborated on symphonic poem, 'The Bride of a God'. The strain of the relationship between Catherine and Charles on the Koechlin family became too great and Catherine returned permanently to the US in 1933. Four years later she married her friend and pupil, the organist Charles Shatto, though this happy union ended in tragedy.

This title was first published in 2003. Catherine Urner was the favourite American pupil of the French composer Charles Koechlin. Their correspondence which spanned over two decades is the basis for this biography of Urner - a story of love, courage and devotion. These letters also shed light on the music scene in Paris and California in the 1920s and 1930s; moreover they provide a unique perspective on the artistic struggle of a woman composer in America at that time. Catherine Urner journeyed to Paris to study with Charles Koechlin after winning a prize for several years study of music abroad.

In 1942 Wilfrid Mellers classed Koechlin "among the select number of contemporary composers who really matter," yet it is only in the 1980s that Koechlin has begun to achieve the recognition he deserves as a composer of breadth, vision and powerful originality: a pioneer of polytonality and a master orchestrator who was greatly admired by contemporaries such as Faure, Debussy, Satie and Milhaud. Lavishly illustrated with photographic and musical examples, this book provides the first comprehensive evaluation of Koechlin's life and works. As well as concentrating on major symphonic works like Koechlin's Jungle Book cycle, it also discusses his attraction to the early sound film and the music inspired by such stars as Lilian Harvey, Marlene Dietrich and Charlie Chaplin in the 1930s. Koechlin's career provides a fascinating study of the triumph of integrity and independence over almost overwhelming odds, and is rich and varied output offers a veritable treasure-trove for performers, scholars and enthusiasts alike.

Women in Music: A Research and Information Guide is an annotated bibliography emerging from more than twenty-five years of feminist scholarship on music. This book testifies to the great variety of subjects and approaches represented in over two decades of published writings on women, their work, and the important roles that feminist outlooks have played in formerly male-oriented academic scholarship or journalistic musings on women and music.

Paris, the City of Light, is one of the most romantic cities in the world. The millions of visitors which flock to the French capital every year follow in the footsteps of countless artists, writers and composers who for centuries have been drawn to this magnificent city. Some composers, Chopin and Rossini among them, found success and contentment, and remained in Paris for the rest of their lives. But for others, Paris brought nothing but disappointment and disillusionment. Mozart, who came to Paris as a 22-year-old seeking a permanent position, was so bitter about the cavalier manner in which he was treated that he professed an aversion to all things French until the end of his days. Wagner was so upset by his treatment here that he once described Paris as "a pit into which the spirit of the nation has subsided." And yet he was drawn back to the city time and again. This book charts the musical history of Paris. It discusses the composer and musicians, both French and foreign, who were drawn here and the impact they made on the world of music, on this great city, and vice versa. It includes a wealth of biographical details, including where the artists lived and, where relevant, where they died and are buried. It also draws from and points to suitable scholarly literature, making it an accessible introduction to students of the musical history of Paris. The book also describes another feature which, if it did not enrich, most certainly enlivened Parisian musical life: The full-scale musical riot. The most notorious of these took place at the Theatre des Champs Elysées in 1913 at the premiere of Stravinsky’s ballet Le sacre du printemps. Less physical, but no less vociferous, was the reception accorded to Wagner’s Tannhäuser at the Opéra in 1860. Other composers who incurred the displeasure of Parisian audiences included Satie, Varese and Xenakis. These riots were not half-hearted affairs; police involvement was required and hospital casualty departments were kept busy. There are also chapters which discuss the musical history of the many theatres of Paris and the churches which played such an important part in the city’s musical past. The text is clear and accessible in order to appeal to both students and the general reader.

La puissante originalite de l'oeuvre du compositeur francais Charles Koechlin (1867-1950) n'est plus a demontrer. Sa musique, toujours plus largement diffusee, temoigne de ses dons de createur. Mais Koechlin n'etait pas seulement musicien: celebre pour ses ouvrages theoriques, il a deploye une intense activite d'intellectuel dans toutes les spheres de l'esprit, de l'histoire a l'esthetique en passant par la philosophie, la sociologie et meme la politique. Esprit independant rompu a la rhetorique, critique avise, amateur d'art, de photographie, de cinema, Koechlin etait un homme sans compromis au savoir d'une richesse etonnante. Ce livre offre aux melomanes, aux musiciens et aux musicologues, pour la premiere fois en francais, une serie d'etudes approfondies de ses techniques de composition, de son langage musical et de sa pensee esthetique, ainsi que de son rapport a ses contemporains et a la societe en general. Au-dela de la decouverte des fondements musicaux auxquels obeissent les partitions explorees dans ce volume, les nombreux themes abordes permettent de mieux comprendre comment s'articulent chez Koechlin les binomes contrainte et liberte, technique et inspiration, musique et societe, pouvoirs et devoirs de l'artiste. Ils permettent aussi de decouvrir un homme sensible et profondement attache a la nature, a la vie et a l'humanite dans ce qu'elles ont de plus beau.
