There's an entry, but it's so brief I don't know why they bothered. The article in the new ed. of MGG doesn't say anything that isn't in the article in the 2nd ed. of New Grove; the latter appears to be a paraphrase of the former. The old ed. of MGG doesn't have Bozza. > Talk to your music librarian! Excellent advice! I'm a librarian by trade (**NOT** a music librarian!), and even so, when I have a research question, always pose it to a reference librarian. By doing so I've gotten information I'd never have found on my own--and my job is creating catalog entries, so I have a good handle on how to get at the stuff. One tip: Be as specific as possible about what you want to know. For example, don't say you're interested in French horns if what you really want to know is when the Reynolds Chambers Model was introduced.

Re: [Hornlist] *eugene bozza*
I just did a quick-and-dirty search of "Music Index Online" (which won't catch everything, nor information only in print indexes) and came up with about 34 hits, including dissertations by the likes of Steve Wolfinbarger about Bozza. Even if the dissertation isn't exactly what one wants, check out the citations. I'd also look in Arts & Humanities citation index. Talk to your music librarian!

Re: [Hornlist] *eugene bozza*
Try doing a search on google.com. I turned up quite a few sites from which a reasonable amount of information can be gained. Some are in French and translate rather hilariously. You can pad out your presentation by a bit of analysis of some of his works. The horn and trumpet ones are very available.

Re: [Hornlist] *eugene bozza*
Out of curosity, what is your piece like? I guess it has a few unrelated musical ideas that are direct quotes from other composers, with little to no transition in between. Bonus points if you quote yourself directly in your own piece.? Chris PS Actually, I like Bozza even though I make fun. I'm playing Sur Le Cimes on my recital and I played En Foret last year. --- joseph fuller <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I am doing a 20th century project on Bozza and I > > have looked everywhere possible.

Re: [Hornlist] *eugene bozza*
I can't get into of the usual suspect abstracting and indexing services this evening. Hard to believe there's not a dissertation or some article... Don't have either volume at hand, but I would be surprised if there's not something on Bozza in the "French Music for Low Brass" or "Program Notes for the Solo Tuba," both IU Press. Tuba players can't get through a conference without someone playing Bozza. Carole Nowicke [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ Horn mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://music.memphis.edu/mailman/listinfo/horn

joseph fuller wrote: > > I am doing a 20th century project on Bozza and I > > have looked everywhere possible. I'm at home and can't do any quick checking for you, so you get some questions instead. Did you check Baker's? If he isn't in the current edition, try some of the earlier ones if possible. Baker's has a tendency to drop people if they are no longer current and interest in them drops. Be sure to have a look at MGG (Die Musik in Geschichte und Gegewart). Overall I think it's better than New Grove, esp. New Grove 2nd ed., which really doesn't impress me. The German is on about an 8th grade level, not too tough for someone with a couple of semesters of undergrad German to figure out. (I managed it.) So even if you don't know any German you may be able to prevail upon a friend to give you a summary. If possible, have a look at Ricordi-Fasquelle and the Lavignac Larousse encyclopedique de la musique (or whatever the exact titles are). I suspect they're more likely to give you details about a French composer than Grove or Baker's. Again, the French involved isn't that hard. I'm ashamed to say I don't know enough about Bozza or his career to make more specific suggestions. Bonne chance.
