Product description

Der Thematische Katalog Mathias Öttl würdigt nach dem Erscheinen des Thematischen Katalogs Karlmann Pachschmidt einen weiteren Komponisten aus dem österreichischen Spätbarock. Getauft am 21.2.1675 in Bodman am Bodensee tauchte Öttl musikalisch erstmals am 31.7.1698 als Mitwirkender einer Jesuitendrama-Aufführung in Wien auf. Tätigkeiten als Tenorist in St. Stephan, am Hof und bei den Wiener Schotten, ferner als Musicus bzw. Kapellmeister Kaiserin Eleonoras, der Witwe nach Leopold I., sind weitere, im Katalog biographisch beleuchtete Stationen seines Lebens. Die Untersuchung der in 37 Sammlungen aus fünf Ländern unter Öttl bzw. alternativ unter anderen Komponistennamen vorgefundenen 66 Kompositionen, insbesondere deren Zuschreibung, war ein weiterer Schwerpunkt der Arbeit, die auch neue Erkenntnisse über einige Sammlungen erbrachte.

This is not a new book - indeed so un-new is it that it has recently been republished in a handsome "classics" edition. Classic non-fiction is pretty hard to define - taste and timeliness overtake the factual more quickly than the fictional - but Bloomsbury deserve credit for elevating this decade-and-a-bit-old account of an 1860 murder in rural England.

What makes this book so compelling and timeless is its skilful blending of the story of the murder with an account of why detectives (and by extension detective fiction) so captivated Victorian Britain. Before reading it, I had no idea how new detectives were in the 1860s and how much media and literary attention they garnered in their early existence, with people from across society pitching in to praise their omniscience or to criticise their actions as murder solving became a national parlour game. Excellently written and researched this book will help you understand why Sherlock Holmes and Miss Marple are as famous as they are.
