1798 also saw the twelve year old Weber's first published work, six fughettas for piano, published in Leipzig.

Weber's piano music all but disappeared from the repertoire.

In 1841, Berlioz wrote recitatives for a production of Weber's Der Freischütz at the Paris Opéra and also orchestrated Weber's Invitation to the Dance to add ballet music to it ( he titled the ballet L ' Invitation à la valse, and the original piano piece has often been mistitled as a result ).

Other notable recordings include Johannes Brahms ' Symphony No. 4 and Franz Schubert's third and eighth (" Unfinished ") symphonies, also with the Vienna Philharmonic, recordings of Dvořák's Concerto for piano and orchestra with Sviatoslav Richter, Carl Maria von Weber's Der Freischütz, Johann Strauss ' Die Fledermaus, Giuseppe Verdi's La Traviata and Richard Wagner's Tristan und Isolde.

Poe here refers to a popular piano work of his time — which, though going by the title " Weber's Last Waltz " was actually composed by Carl Gottlieb Reissiger ( 1798 – 1859 ).

On 13 April 1851 in Weimar he was the soloist at the first performance, under Liszt's baton, of Liszt's arrangement for piano and orchestra of Carl Maria von Weber's Polonaise ( Polacca ) brillante " L ' hilarité " in E major, Op.

His recordings for Deutsche Grammophon of the complete Debussy Preludes ( 1972 ), Schumann's Noveletten ( 1968 ) and Weber's second and third piano sonatas ( 1970 ) are particularly renowned.

Weber's piano duets were written around 1801 and 1818 – 19, his Turandot music in 1809.

Other famous pieces for bassoon and orchestra include Berwald's Konzertstück, Elgar's Romance, Villa-Lobos's Ciranda Das Sete Notas, and Weber's Andante e Rondo Ongarese.

Hindemith and his wife used to play Weber's music for two pianists, and Hindemith used some of these little-known pieces — Op.

According to the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy, the " deep tension between the Kantian moral imperatives and a Nietzschean diagnosis of the modern cultural world is apparently what gives such a darkly tragic and agnostic shade to Weber's ethical worldview.

Homage has been paid to Weber by 20th century composers such as Debussy, Stravinsky, Mahler ( who completed Weber's unfinished comic opera Die drei Pintos and made revisions of Euryanthe and Oberon ) and Hindemith ( composer of the popular Symphonic Metamorphosis of Themes by Carl Maria von Weber ).

On his early American tours, he programmed works such as the Chopin Preludes and Schumann's Fantasie in C. Among other works that he played, as recalled by those such as Claudio Arrau and Vladimir Horowitz, who had heard Schnabel in the 1920s, were Chopin's E minor Piano Concerto and the Piano Sonata No. 2 in B-flat minor, and Weber's Konzertstück in F minor, Piano Sonata No. 2, and Invitation to the Dance.

Depicting different types of “ economic man ” ( each depending on the social context ) is in fact possible with the help of cultural anthropology, and social psychology ( a branch of psychology economists have strangely ignored ), if only those types are contrived as socially and / or historically determined abstractions ( such as Weber's, Korsch's, and Fromm's concepts of Idealtypus, “ historical specification ”, and “ social character ”).

They suggested that previous theories such as Weber's bureaucracy and Frederick Winslow Taylor's scientific management had failed because they neglected that management style and organizational structure were influenced by various aspects of the environment: the contingency factors.

Other discrimination tasks, such as detecting changes in brightness, or in tone height ( pure tone frequency ), or in the length of a line shown on a screen, may have different Weber fractions, but they all obey Weber's law in that observed values need to change by at least some small but constant proportion of the current value to ensure human observers will reliably be able to detect that change.

Weber's most important successor in the field of Romantic opera was Heinrich Marschner, who further explored the Gothic and the supernatural in works such as Der Vampyr ( 1828 ) and Hans Heiling ( 1833 ).

Later singspiels, such as Beethoven's Fidelio and Weber's Der Freischütz, retained the form, but explored more serious subjects

Weber's theory can explain some of the causes for current movement, yet such discussion did not come from Weber himself.

She has also appeared in fashion films such as Steven Meisel and Darren Lew's War Opera, Nick Knight's Andy Warhol-inspired series More Beautiful Women, Craig McDean's 48 Girls, and Bruce Weber's Petit Fleur, Harlequin, Voodoo Daddy, Closer Walk With Thee and Karen's Boogie ( all films were made in conjunction with W as a tribute to New Orleans ).

Microsociology exists both as an umbrella term for perspectives which focus on agency, such as Max Weber's theory of social action, and as a body of distinct techniques, particularly in American sociology.

Weber's thought regarding the rationalizing and secularizing tendencies of modern Western society ( sometimes described as the " Weber Thesis ") would blend with Marxism to facilitate critical theory, particularly in the work of thinkers such as Jürgen Habermas.

In Books V-VI the abolition of riches among the guardian class ( not unlike Max Weber's bureaucracy ) leads controversially to the abandonment of the typical family, and as such no child may know his or her parents and the parents may not know their own children.

Although other historians such as Henri Mendras had put forward similar theories about the modernization of the French countryside, Weber's book was amongst the first to focus on changes in the period between 1870 and 1914.

In a sociological sense, neo-Marxism adds Max Weber's broader understanding of social inequality, such as status and power, to Marxist philosophy.

They suggested that previous theories such as Weber's bureaucracy and Taylor's scientific management had failed because they neglected that management style and organizational structure were influenced by various aspects of the environment: the contingency factors.

After producing the soundtrack to Winged Migration in 2001, Coulais announced that he wanted to significantly reduce his contributions to film music, and instead concentrate on other projects, such as the creation of an opera for children, and collaborations with Akhenaton, Akhenaton's group IAM and the Corsican group A Filetta, with whom he had worked since he had made the soundtrack for Jacques Weber's film Don Juan in 1998.

In one of his novels, entitled Invitatie la vals, referring to Carl Maria von Weber's " Invitation to the Dance " ( later orchestrated by Berlioz ), a comparison is made between the novel's main character and Manon Lescaut.

Of Tausig's original compositions and numerous arrangements of classical works the following may be mentioned: Deux Études de Concert, replacing an earlier pianoforte transcription of his symphonic ballad Das Geisterschiff ; Ungarische Zigeunerweisen, a composition for pianoforte ; Nouvelles Soirées de Vienne ; Tägliche Studien, finger exercises of high value ; a selection of studies from Clementi's Gradus ad Parnassum ; a transcription of Bach's Toccata and Fugue in D minor, BWV 565 ; and adaptations of Weber's Invitation to the Dance, and of six Beethoven quartets ; transcriptions of Schubert's Marche Militaire No. 1 in D and of Wagner's Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg, The Ride of the Valkyries, and Siegmund's Love Song.

Weber's main intellectual concern was understanding the processes of rationalisation, secularization, and " disenchantment " that he associated with the rise of capitalism and modernity and which he saw as the result of a new way of thinking about the world.

Weber's 1876 Christmas presents to his parents, when he was thirteen years old, were two historical essays entitled " About the course of German history, with special reference to the positions of the Emperor and the Pope ," and " About the Roman Imperial period from Constantine to the migration of nations.

Weber was put in charge of the study and wrote a large part of the final report, which generated considerable attention and controversy and marked the beginning of Weber's renown as a social scientist.

From 1893 to 1899 Weber was a member of the Alldeutscher Verband ( Pan-German League ), an organisation that campaigned against the influx of the Polish workers ; the degree of Weber's support for the Germanisation of Poles and similar nationalist policies is still debated by modern scholars.

Also in 1893 he married his distant cousin Marianne Schnitger, later a feminist activist and author in her own right, who was instrumental in collecting and publishing Weber's journal articles as books after his death and her biography of him is an important source for understanding Weber's life.

Weber's ordeal with mental illness was carefully described in a personal chronology that was destroyed by his wife.

This chronicle was supposedly destroyed because Marianne Weber feared that Max Weber's work would be discredited by the Nazis if his experience with mental illness were widely known.

Weber's thinking was strongly influenced by German idealism and particularly by neo-Kantianism, to which he had been exposed through Heinrich Rickert, his professorial colleague at the University of Freiburg.

Though the influence of his mother's Calvinist religiosity is evident throughout Weber's life and work, and though he maintained a deep, lifelong interest in the study of religions, Weber was open about the fact that he was personally irreligious.

Weber's methodology was developed in the context of a wider debate about methodology of social sciences, the Methodenstreit.

Weber's position was close to historicism, as he understood social actions as being heavily tied to particular historical contexts and its analysis required the understanding of subjective motivations of individuals ( social actors ).

Another reason for Weber's decision was that Troeltsch's work already achieved what he desired in that area: laying the groundwork for a comparative analysis of religion and society.

The Religion of China: Confucianism and Taoism was Weber's second major work on the sociology of religion.

The Religion of India: The Sociology of Hinduism and Buddhism was Weber's third major work on the sociology of religion.

Weber's most influential work was on economic sociology, political sociology, and the sociology of religion.

The theme of a religious basis of economic discipline is echoed in sociologist Max Weber's work, but both de Tocqueville and Weber argued that this discipline was not a force of economic determinism, but one factor among many that should be considered when evaluating the relative economic success of the Puritans.

This approach was most notably portrayed in Max Weber's concepts of traditional authority and modern rational-legal authority.

Adorno was chiefly influenced by Max Weber's critique of disenchantment, Georg Lukács's Hegelian interpretation of Marxism, as well as Walter Benjamin's philosophy of history.

Topelius initially thought of writing a trivial entertainment, but having heard extracts from the opera project at a concert in 1851, he realized that Pacius was writing a grand opera on the theme of salvation, following the early Romantic style of Carl Maria von Weber's Der Freischütz ( 1821 ) and Oberon ( 1826 ).

This interest was first manifested in Weber's incidental music for Schiller's translation of Gozzi's Turandot, for which he used a Chinese melody, making him the first Western composer to use an Asian tune that was not of the pseudo-Turkish kind popularized by Mozart and others.
