The Plague, a Metal Monster, and the Wonder of Wanda

In Pursuit of the Performance Style

Authors

Keywords:

Historical Performance, Early Music, Authenticity, Performance Practice, Landowska, Kleczyński

Abstract

The claim of having achieved “authenticity” in performance has today almost disappeared without a trace. However, Richard Taruskin’s efforts to disprove the premise through a series of articles in the 1980s still beg important questions, such as exactly what are the origins of the early music movement’s performance style and which performers had a role in its transmission? Taruskin contends that Stravinsky transmitted the “geometrical,” or modernist, Bach to the musical world, and that Stravinsky might have learned it from Wanda Landowska. It recognizes and advocates for the contributions made by Landowska before the advent of the “authenticity” era.
