Quattro settimane nelle trincee

By: Fritz Kreisler

Violinista e compositore austriaco, uno dei più grandi e famosi musicisti del suo tempo, Fritz Kreisler venne chiamato a servire il suo paese sul fronte orientale della Grande Guerra. Partecipò alla battaglia di Lemberg, in Galizia, una delle più cruente e sanguinose di tutto il conflitto e, dopo quattro settimane, venne ferito e congedato con onore. Dettò questo vivido ricordo delle sue avventure che rappresenta uno dei racconti di guerra più belli e toccanti che siano mai stati scritti. Il libro, che viene pubblicato in Italia per la prima volta, offre al lettore una prospettiva unica e una toccante presa diretta, quasi cinematografica, su quanto avvenne agli uomini e agli eserciti sul fronte orientale. ''Per ventuno giorni vissi senza mai togliermi i vestiti, dormii sull’erba bagnata o nel fango, o nella melma, e con niente addosso se non la mia mantella. Una notte, mentre dormivamo, ci inzuppammo fino alle ossa a causa di piogge torrenziali. Non uno di noi si mosse. Molte cose considerate necessità, semplicemente furono soppresse dalla nostra esistenza. Uno spazzolino da denti non era neppure immaginabile. Mangiavamo istintivamente con le mani. Sembravamo tanti lupi irsuti e magri. Ricordo di esser andato avanti per più di tre giorni senza mettere tra i denti un qualsiasi tipo di cibo, e molte volte dovemmo leccare la rugiada dall’erba per mancanza d’acqua. Una certa fierezza nasce in te, un’indifferenza assoluta per qualsiasi cosa il mondo possieda, tranne che per il dovere di combattere. Stai mangiando un tozzo di pane e un uomo viene ucciso nella trincea accanto a te. Tu lo guardi con calma per un attimo, e poi ti rimetti a mangiare. Perché non dovresti? Non c’è niente da fare. Alla fine tu parli della tua propria morte con così poco entusiasmo come lo faresti per un impegno a pranzo. Non c’è più niente nella tua mente, se non il fatto che orde di uomini a cui appartieni stanno combattendo contro orde di altri uomini, e il vostro lato deve vincere''. NOVITA’ EDITORIALE Il volume è stampato per la prima volta in Italia.

Four Weeks in the Trenches: The War Story of a Violinist (WWI Centenary Series)

By: Fritz Kreisler

After much persuasion, Mr. Kreisler reluctantly acceded to the suggestion that he write out his personal memories of the war for publication. He has completed his narrative in the midst of grave difficulties, writing it piecemeal in hotels and railway trains in the course of a concert tour through the country. It is offered by the publishers to the public with confidence that it will be found one of the most absorbing and informing narratives of the war that has yet appeared." This book is part of the World War One Centenary series; creating, collating and reprinting new and old works of poetry, fiction, autobiography and analysis. The series forms a commemorative tribute to mark the passing of one of the world's bloodiest wars, offering new perspectives on this tragic yet fascinating period of human history. Each publication also includes brand new introductory essays and a timeline to help the reader place the work in its historical context.

Tambourin Chinois (Chinese Drum)

Advanced Piano Duets (1 Piano, 4 Hands)

By: Fritz Kreisler,Greg Anderson

Greg Anderson and Elizabeth Joy Roe are perhaps the most thrilling young duo performing today, offering adrenalized classical concerts that are revolutionizing the piano duo experience for the 21st century. Described as "Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers transposed from the dance floor to the keyboard" (The Southampton Press) and "the intense synchronization of genius" (ThirdCoast Digest), Greg and Liz bring their joyous camaraderie and refined artistry to the concert stage, dazzling audiences around the world as a four-hand and two-piano team. The Anderson & Roe Duos & Duets series features inspiring arrangements as performed by the duo---from settings of treasured opera melodies to medleys of popular movie music. The pieces are edited with fingering and other directions that facilitate rehearsal and performance, making them accessible for advancing students as well as for concert performers. Regarded as one of the greatest violinists of all time, Fritz Kreisler composed dozens of short works for violin and piano to perform on his recitals. Tambourin Chinois is a joyous and delightful musical gem, a celebration of imagined worlds and faraway lands. An acrobatic arrangement, the pianists are asked to recreate the playfulness of the music through dance-like interaction.
