V 1954 godu okonchil Leningradskuju konservatoriju po klassu kompozitsii professora O. A. Evlakhova. Laureat Gosudarstvennykh premij SSSR (1967, 1976), Rossii (1996), Premii Prezidenta RF, narodnyj artist SSSR (1990). Byl nagrazhden kinematograficheskimi premijami "Nika" (1992) i "Zolotoj Oven" (1995). S 1964 goda do poslednikh dnej zhizni on vozglavljal leningradskuju-peterburgskuju kompozitorskuju organizatsiju, s 1992-go byl prezidentom Filarmonicheskogo obschestva Sankt-Peterburga. V 1998 godu A. P. Petrovu bylo prisvoeno zvanie pochetnogo grazhdanina Sankt-Peterburga. Ego imenem nazvana otkrytaja v 1994 godu malaja planeta. Khronologicheski pervoe iz sochinenij, vkljuchennykh v etot tom, - Tsyganskaja rapsodija. Eta muzyka rodom iz baleta "Radda i Lojko", napisannogo po motivam rannego rasskaza Maksima Gorkogo "Makar Chudra". Balet sobiralsja stavit v Malom opernom teatre odin iz samykh jarkikh baletmejsterov Leningrada, a vposledstvii khoreograf mirovogo masshtaba Leonid Jakobson. Odnako postanovka ne sostojalas, i muzyka baleta byla v znachitelnoj mere ispolzovana Petrovym v simfonicheskoj poeme "Radda i Lojko", ispolnenie kotoroj v 1954 godu v Bolshom zale Leningradskoj filarmonii stalo odnim iz pervykh - vesma jarkikh - vykhodov molodogo avtora na leningradskuju kontsertnuju estradu. Material iz baleta leg v osnovu i "Tsyganskoj rapsodii" dlja skripki i fortepiano, napisannoj v 1958 godu. Dlitelnoe vremja ona ispolnjalas krajne malo, no vsplyla v XXI veke i vnov stala repertuarnoj. Zdes cheredujutsja, kak i prinjato v zhanre rapsodii, raznokharakternye, jarko kontrastnye epizody. Oni postroeny na osnove melodij, stilizovannykh pod skripichnye improvizatsii, blizkie k folkloru roma (v chastnosti, vengerskikh i rumynskikh tsygan). Poluchilas "bisovaja" kontsertnaja pesa v dukhe virtuozno-romanticheskoj muzyki kontsa XIX - nachala XX veka na tsyganskie temy. Nelzja ne vspomnit, chto tsyganskij "sled" ne oborvetsja na etom v tvorchestve kompozitora: chetvert veka spustja Andrej Petrov napishet dlja filma "Zhestokij romans" pesnju "A tsygan idet", stavshuju poistine narodnoj. V osnove drugoj rannej pesy, "V orkestre novyj skripach", - tema iz detskogo filma 1961 goda rezhissera Ajan Shakhmalievoj "Mishel i Mishutka", posvjaschennogo tsirku. Korotkometrazhnaja lenta, v kotoroj snimalis dressirovannye medvedi, stala dlja Petrova propuskom v kino. Pesu kompozitor napisal dlja Leningradskogo kontsertnogo orkestra po zakazu ego rukovoditelja Anatolija Badkhena, a transkriptsiju dlja skripki i fortepiano sdelal drugoj zamechatelnyj dirizher - Stanislav Gorkovenko. V svoeobraznoj muzykalnoj jumoristicheskoj stsenke otrazilis i ritmy tantsev nachala 1960-kh, i atmosfera togo vremeni, ispolnennogo nadezhd. Sjuitu dlja skripki i fortepiano iz baleta "Sotvorenie mira", kotoryj s ogromnym uspekhom shel v Mariinskom (togda Kirovskom) teatre i nachal osvaivat zarubezhnye stseny, po prosbe Petrova v 1981 godu napisal kompozitor, nyne professor Peterburgskoj konservatorii Vjacheslav Nagovitsin. Initsiativa zdes prinadlezhala vydajuschemusja skripachu, entuziastu novoj muzyki Borisu Gutnikovu: imenno on zagorelsja etoj ideej, posetiv spektakl v Kirovskom teatre. 9790352212725. …

8 wood engravings by Agnes Miller Parker. No. 44 of 250 copies. Printed in Bembo type on Portal's handmade paper. Sm. 4to, mustard-yellow Welsh sheepskin with title in a pattern of rules in gilt on the upper cover, spine titled in gilt. A very good, bright example of a notoriously weak binding with relatively little marking and rubbing John Sampson was an Irish linguist and scholar, best known for The Dialect of the Gypsies of Wales (1926) and for his examination of Welsh Romani folk stories. The text for this powerfully illustrated Gregynog Press book was edited by John Sampson's literary executor Dora Yates who kept considerable control over all the stages of production. The mustard-yellow binding was at her behest - she had demanded that it must be bound in a 'gipsy colour, either red or yellow'. Agnes Miller Parker was one of the greatest of the female wood engravers from of the first half of the 20th century. She trained at the Glasgow School of Art and married William McCance and with him became part of the group of artists centred around Chiswick in the 1920s. Her work for the Gregynog Press where she and her husband lived for a while in the 1930s was remarkable, this being her second book for the Press after the Esope's Fables and together they are two of the best British illustrated books of the twentieth century.…

'The successes of Esope and XXI Welsh Gypsy Folk Tales were not merely the result of a brilliant husband and wife team [Agnes Miller Parker and William McCance] working in harmony but also of the efforts of the journeymen printers at Gregynog, the superb pressman Herbert Hodgson and the compositors Richard Owen Jones and Idris Jones. Whatever the drawbacks to living and working in mid-Wales, and there were an abundance of these, Gregynog gave Agnes the opportunity to create two of the greatest illustrated books of the twentieth century.'

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Volume two of the supernatural fiction of Mrs Henry WoodMrs. Henry Wood was one of a notable cadre of proficient authors of all manner of fiction, much of which appeared serially in the numerous periodicals of the Victorian period. Ellen Wood (formerly Price) was born in Worcestershire in 1815 and is principally remembered for as the author of 'East Lynne'-one of the most popular sensation novels of the mid-19th century. She wrote over 30 novels as well as many shorter works of mystery, crime and suspense. Her supernatural fiction has endured by virtue of its lasting quality and has been acclaimed by aficionados and critics alike, including the not lightly given approbation of M. R. James. The Victorian public's appetite for stories of the weird and ghostly was insatiable and huge amounts of it was published. This resulted in a golden age for the genre. Almost every popular fiction writer of the period tried their hand at ghostly or terrifying stories, including some of the most notable authors of the time such as Dickens, R. L. Stevenson, Kipling and Conan Doyle. Some became well known and well regarded 'specialists' in the ghostly tale; foremost among these were women writers who had a particular talent for supernatural themes. Among the first rank of these was Mrs Henry Wood and this substantial Leonaur three volume collection is probably the first comprehensive collection of her other worldly fiction to be published.In volume two readers will find 'Sandstone Torr,' 'Ketira the Gypsy,' 'The Surgeon's Daughters,' 'The Unholy Wish' and eight more stories of the strange and unusual.Leonaur editions are newly typeset and are not facsimiles; each title is available in softcover and hardback with dustjacket.…
