SCHUMANN: COMPLETE ORGAN MUSIC Brilliant Classics

Nagrania muzyczneMuzyka poważna

Robert Schumann is probably best known for his copious amount of piano works and lieder ? music that, fuelled by vivid imaginings and unfettered emotions, represents one of the highest expressions of the Romantic spirit. It shouldn?t be forgotten, however, that the composer also wrote masterly works for the organ, an instrument which interested him only occasionally but which he praised in his Rules for House and Life (1850): ?If you pass near a church and you hear the organ playing, go inside and listen? Never waste an opportunity to practise the organ: there is no other instrument able so swiftly to dispense with all that is impure and imprecise, both in the music itself and in the manner of playing it.?It was Schumann?s deep admiration for J.S. Bach that led him to a detailed study of counterpoint ? one which, together with his encounter with the Pedalflügel (a piano with a pedalboard), led him to compose the three groups of works comprising this release. Given that the pedal piano is now all but obsolete, the conventional organ suffices more than adequately for this type of repertoire, and the Mascioni Organ of Pontevico ? inaugurated in 2009 and combining traditional elements with innovative design concepts ? is a particularly fine specimen on which to play it. Roberto Marini, one of Italy?s most accomplished organists and whose repertoire betrays his particular affinity with the Romantic and late-Romantic oeuvre (career highlights include a complete Reger cycle performance) begins his recital with the Six Studies Op.56, works written in strictly canonic form and which reveal the diverse aspects of Schumann?s musical personality. The Four Sketches Op.58, pieces of poetic character, close to the style of chamber music, follow, leading to the final and crowning work of the set: the Six Fugues on BACH, a personal tribute the composer?s inspiration and the first important composition in musical history to be based on the theme of Bach?s name.Other information:- Recorded 27 April 2011, Church of SS. Tommaso e Andrea, Pontevico, Italy.- Schumann?s name is not immediately connected with the organ, and indeed he never specifically wrote music for a church organ. Yet his lifelong admiration for Johann Sebastian Bach and his fascination for a newly invented Pedalflügel (a piano with a pedalclavier attached) led him to compose three sets of works for this instrument, which are recorded here on a church organ.- The music?s style is that of polyphonic severity (a far cry from Schumann?s early and famous piano works, which are inhabited by fantastic creatures from legends, poetry and dreams), yet in every bar Schumann?s romantic heartbeat can be felt.- Played by Roberto Martini on the Mascioni Organ of the Abbey of St Thomas the Apostle, Pontevico (Italy).- Booklet includes detailed notes about the composer and music. Also features an artist biography and information about the organ (Italian and English).

Poiret, Dior and Schiaparelli Bloomsbury Publishing

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

Through a highly original and detailed analysis of the memoirs, interviews and other life writings of Poiret, Dior and Schiaparelli, this book explores changing notions of femininity in the early decades of the twentieth century, when the democratization of fashion began. Examining the idea of modernity, eternity and the ephemeral in the writings of these haute couturiers, the book reflects on fashion's ambivalent approach to women, which both celebrated and vilified them, presenting them as both ultra modern style leaders and irrational creatures stuck in the past. This fascinating text is key reading for scholars and students of fashion, gender studies, cultural studies and history.

Core Clinical Competencies in Anesthesiology Cambridge University Press

Medycyna > English Division

The core clinical competencies in anesthesiology can be pretty blurry - just how do they apply to real life? This book answers this question, incorporating the core clinical competencies into an engaging format that anesthesiologists like - case studies. So, far from being a 'dry and dusty volume of forgotten lore', this book actually makes learning the competencies fun! Written in the same engaging style as a number of other anesthesia books (specifically, the Board Stiff opus) by leading anesthesiologists from leading medical centers across the United States, this book will bring the core clinical competencies to life for medical students. '... the text is laid out in a very consistent and clear manner ... for those faced with demonstrating their Clinical Competencies during their training assessments, this book is likely to provide highly effective training, with the relaxed style offsetting the effort required. In summary, this is likely to prove a very popular solution to the problems of residency review committees for trainees.' British Journal of Anaesthesia

The Art of Bisguier: Selected Games 1961-2003

Szachy > Inne wydawnictwa

Selected as one of the Best Chess Books of 2008 by CHESS Magazine (London) Arthur Bisguier is a living legend in American chess, having met and defeated some of the greatest players in the world. This is a collection of his best games - annotated by Bisguier himself - from 1961 through 2003.  Each game is introduced with an anecdote and brief comment about Art#8217;s opponent and combined with many archival photos, makes this one of the great chess game collections ever.    What sets this book apart from other game collections are the stories that preface each encounter. Bisguier, who has lived American chess history for over 60 years, has always been known as an excellent raconteur and his memory for the clever observation and ability to bring to life Caissa's departed soldiers is second to none.  He quotes the Seattle master Olaf Ulvestad on to the difference between a master and a grandmaster ("A master studies the board, calculates, deliberates and at last makes the correct move. A grandmaster tosses a piece in the air and it lands on the proper square.")  This explanation struck a chord with Bisguier who has always strongly relied on his intuition when selecting a move.   With opening and player indexes and many black and white photographs. Former US Champion GM Lev Alburt: "One of the best game collections I#8217;ve ever seen." Steve Giddins, British Chess Magazine: "The list of opponents includes Bronstein, Tal, Geller, Gligoric, Karpov, Keres, Kortchnoi, Larsen, Petrosian, Smyslov, Spassky. Bisguier's style was predominantly tactical, but he was also a fine endgame player as this book shows. Interestingly, he was a regular player of the 'Berlin Wall' against the Ruy Lopez, long before anybody had heard of Vladimir Kramnik, and this book contains several examples." IM John Donaldson, ChessToday: "What sets this book apart from other game collections are the stories." Alex Dunne, ChessLife: "Exciting and insightful (..) the history of chess, sharp attacking games, and the human side of some of the the strongest chess players in the recent past." John Watson, The Week In Chess: "I'd recommend this book in general, and in particular to anyone with an interest in chess biographies/game collections, as well as those who would enjoy reminders about the bygone players of the American chess scene." FreeChess: "If I were going to spend the next four weeks on a desert island and I could take four of this year's chess books with me, then 'The Art of Bisguier' would certainly be one of them." Sean Marsh, CHESS Magazine: "A number of excellent photographs augment a fine work (..) This is an excellent book"

Debussy: 12 Etudes Brilliant Classics

Nagrania muzyczneMuzyka poważna

The Debussy-year 2012 brought a wealth of reissues on the market, but surprisingly few new recordings. Reason the more to welcome this new recording of a generous selection of Debussy piano works, centred around the substantial "12 Etudes".These works, written in the later stage of Debussy's creative life, form the apotheosis of his style. Far from any evocative "impressionistic" Tonmalerei or picturesqueatmosphere painting they are Debussy's answer to the Etudes of Chopin, purely abstract creations of melody, harmony and rhythm. Fiercely uncompromising and difficult, they form the summit of Debussy's piano oeuvre, and one of the highest challenges to any performing pianist.The exciting young Italian pianist Mariangela Vacatello is a Liszt specialist, renowned for her passionate performances and technical ability. She has given concerts at prestigious venues across the USA and Europe, and she has won many awards. These include second prize at the Franz Liszt International Piano Competition in 1999, and the Internet Audience Award at the 2009 Van Cliburn International Piano Competition. 'A very exciting player' Musical Opinion, 2008.Vacatello's previous disc of the Transcendental Studies on Brilliant Classics won golden opinions; now she turns to a no less challenging but somewhat more elliptical aesthetic with the late piano music of Debussy. The 12 Etudes move from ironic instruction to fiendish complexity; part satire, part evocation of a lost world. Complementing the Etudes are the more immediately assimilable sets of Estampes and early Arabesques as well as the delightful glitter of L'Isle Joyeuse.Other information:- Recorded in 2012.- Includes booklet notes and biography.- The young Italian pianist Mariangela Vacatello likes challenges, as was convincingly proven by her excellent recording of the Liszt Transcendental Studies (Brilliant Classics): "...poetic and playful, her technique knows no limits..a remarkable artist.." (Piano News) and a "5 Star" review in the German magazine Fono Forum.- Liner notes in English and Italian.

Alkan: Solo Piano Music Brilliant Classics

Nagrania muzyczneMuzyka poważna

Charles-Valentin Alkan was a true celebrity in 19th-century Paris. A child prodigy who entered the Paris Conservatoire before the age of five, he later won the establishment?s annual prize for solfege at just seven years old and went on to win many more competitions. A friend and contemporary of Franz Liszt and Frédéric Chopin, Alkan inherited many of Chopin?s pupils after the death of the great composer in 1849. Alkan continued to show admiration for his friend by quoting Chopin?s melodies in his own works.Alkan?s oeuvre is almost entirely written for piano, and this disc brings together several of these works. The first two pieces, Capriccio alla soldatesca and Le tambour bat aux champs, esquisse are depictions of military life and warfare, and are awash with sound effects such as drumrolls, horns and march rhythms. The Trois menuets encapsulates three varying styles of minuet, for each of which the performer must employ a different keyboard technique. Both Une fusée, introduction et impromptu and the Nocturnes employ many telling hints of Chopin?s style, and the Sonatine in A minor, with which the disc ends, owes much to the Beethovenian model ? but with Alkan?s own distinct flair.Pianist Costantino Mastroprimiano initially studied at the Conservatorio di Musica di Foggia and the Accademia Chigiana of Siena, and has since performed throughout Europe in ensembles and as a soloist. Curator of the scientific committee for Muzio Clementi?s Opera Omnia and a professor of keyboard and chamber music at the Francesco Morlacchi Conservatory of Perugia, Mastroprimiano has previously recorded many CDs; among them Clementi?s complete sonatas for Brilliant Classics.Other information:- Recorded on a historic grand piano.- Charles-Valentin Alkan was one of the most important pianists and piano-composers of the 19th century, although he lived the largest part of his life in obscurity and seclusion. He was a close friend of Chopin (they were neighbours in Paris) and he was the only pianist in whose presence the great Franz Liszt was nervous to play.- Alkan?s piano oeuvre consists of two cycles of Studies of the most fearsome and fiendlish difficulty, and several books of miniatures and character pieces.- Fortepianist Costantino Mastroprimiano chose a varied programme, presenting the multi faceted genius of Alkan: alongside the substantial and diabolical Sonatine (which belies its name, both in proportions and character) he plays some hauntingly beautiful Nocturnes and some grotesque miniatures (Le tambour bat aux champs, Capriccio alla soldatesca).- Mastroprimiano, one of the foremost players of period instruments of today, chose a superb Pleyel instrument of 1865, an instrument Alkan might well have known in his time.- Contains instrument specifications, notes on the works and performer biography.

ARCHAEOPTERYX Pfeil, Dr. Friedrich

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

Dr. Wellnhofer is the world's authority on the 150-million-year-old Archaeopteryx and he has been so for over thirty years. He has published major studies on many specimens of Archaeopteryx, has curated exhibitions about the Urvogel, written popular accounts, lectured extensively, and participated in media-related interviews.Archaeopteryx is what I like to describe as a "paleontological Mona Lisa". Its priceless fossils - up to now ten skeletal specimens and a single feather imprint discovered during the last 145 years - have had a tremendous significance in our understanding of evolution, and their impact has gone way beyond science and into social grounds. Dr. Wellnhofer's book narrates the history of the discoveries of the individual specimens, and the stories behind them - those of the collectors, dealers, museum curators and scholars whose lives became entangled with these discoveries. It includes chapters of the world-famous Solnhofen lithographic limestone, covering aspects of its geology and special fossil preservation, and interpretations of the ancient environment inhabited by Archaeopteryx.The core of the book includes detailed descriptions and illustrations of each specimen. These and other chapters discuss the different interpretations regarding the size, growth and life history, plumage, physiology, and life style. Because Archaeopteryx has played a key role in discussions about the origin of birds and of their flight, the book also adresses the rise of birds - highlighting the evidence that supports the evolutionary connection between birds and the carnivorous theropod dinosaurs - and the controversial issue of the beginning of avian flight. The text is written for a general audience and is thoroughly supplemented by photographs, drawings, diagrams, and maps, and detailed notes and references.There has never been a book like this one and no one else could write it today. Dr. Wellnhofer's evenhandedness assures a fair coverage of the multitude of ideas that have been proposed about the life of Archaeopteryx and readers will undoubtedly find this book to be a powerful, authoritative treatment of one of the most significant fossils in the history of paleontology. The book will unquestionably provide a very useful source to professionals but its non-technical approach will also make it accessible to teachers, students, and the general public. I can't think of a timelier book on avian paleontology and a more qualified person to write a comprehensive analysis of such an important and legendary fossil bird.Dr. Luis M.
