Boris de Schlözer
Boris Fyodorovich Schlözer (Schloezer) (Russian: Борис Фёдорович Шлёцер, sometimes a
musicologist
and French translator of Russian origin.
Life and career
A descendant of the Russian branch of a German noble family,Dostoevsky, Rozanov and especially his friend Lev Shestov, whom he helped to diffuse his philosophy in France.[2] Passionate about music, he wrote monographs on composers, sometimes in collaboration with his niece Marina Scriabina and his sister Tatiana Schlözer (1883–1922), who was Marina’s mother and the mistress[3] of Alexander Scriabin.[2]
Schloezer's Introduction à J.-S. Bach outlines a phenomenological approach to music, and is in agreement with contemporary
Boulez and his generation, though Schloezer occasionally criticized Boulez, for example in his 1955 article "Retour à Descartes."[2]
