内容説明
"Serving Genius" tells the life story of Carlo Maria Giulini, one of the most renowned and beloved conductors of the twentieth century. Detailing Giulini's extraordinary professional career, Thomas D. Saler also chronicles Giulini's personal life, including his musical awakening while growing up amid the spectacular beauty of the Dolomite mountains, his years as a student in Rome's Academy of St. Cecilia, his conscription into the Italian army during World War II, his nine months in hiding for his anti-fascist and pacifist beliefs, and his selfless devotion to his wife, Marcella. A humble master who shunned the limelight, Giulini took a deeply emotional and subjective approach to making music. Saler provides uniquely detailed analysis of Giulini's nuanced musicianship and the way he conveyed that musicianship to the orchestra through physical gestures. Meditating on the very art of conducting at which Giulini excelled, Saler discusses each of the conductor's major musical appointments, including stints with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, Philharmonia Orchestra, Vienna Symphony, and Los Angeles Philharmonic. The book also addresses his repertoire of choice, leadership style, and moral framework. Drawing on extensive interviews with Giulini's family, music critics, arts administrators, orchestra members, and collaborating soloists, "Serving Genius" draws out the personal amid the professional life of this giant among twentieth-century conductors.
メディア掲載レビュー
"This engaging and extensive biography shows why Carlo Maria Giulini stood apart from other maestri, and above the fray: because of his gentle humanity, his spiritual resonance with music, and his uncompromising seriousness of purpose. This is certainly a book I will recommend to all the conductors I encounter, as well as others because it captures the essence of an uncommonly inspired and inspiring human being." Kenneth Kiesler, conductor, director of orchestras at the University of Michigan, and director of the Conductors Retreat at Medomak and Conductors Programme at the National Arts Centre of Canada

A book worthy of its subject

FANTASTIC book! If Carlo Maria Giulini interests you, don't hesitate to buy this book. I really didn't want it to end. A lot of times, conductor biographies become an exercise in, he did this work here and that work there, and played this work a total of X times in his career, etc. While there is some of that (appropriately), what the book does tremendously well is give a sense as to the "hows" and "whys" of Giulini's unique style and approach. It is a very well researched book, and provides a lot of insight into Giulini the person, not just Giulini the conductor. This is really well done and highly recommended.

Music to your eyes

Having heard Maestro Giulini conduct the Chicago Symphony some time ago, I can tell you he was an amazing talent. He conducted a Schubert mass that was among the most memorable performances I've ever attended in my more than 50 years of listening and loving all kinds of music. Saler presents a nuanced portrait of the great conductor and one worthy of his remarkable ability to connect with audiences. Even if you've never heard Giulini make music (please sample his recordings), this is a unique insight into a master of the baton.

Conductors as Karajan and Bernstein knew how to use publicity. Carlo Maria Giulini didn't care, but he was just as good a conductor, if not better. As a human being and a musician he was highly esteemed by those who worked with him. He well deserved this accurate biography.
