This engaging step-by-step guide prescribes effective strategies
and tactics for translating a wide range of songs and other vocal
music, from classical to contemporary. Focusing on best practice
and with a variety of language examples, the book centres on four
key themes: translating songs for a range of recipients and within
different contexts (skopos theory) translating songs for reading on
paper or on screens (surtitles and subtitles) "singable
translations" and the Pentathlon Approach translating expressive
texts. With a substantial introduction, six insightful chapters,
further reading and a glossary of key terms (also available at
https://www.routledge.com/9781138641792 and on the Routledge
Translation Studies Portal), this lively and clear student-friendly
guide is essential for students, researchers and practitioners
involved in or studying the practice of translating music. This
will also be an engaging read for musicians and all those
interested in the study of music.

These never-before-published poems by Johnny Cash make the perfect
gifts for music lovers and fans alike. Edited and introduced by
Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Paul Muldoon with a foreword by John
Carter Cash, this poetry collection is illustrated with facsimile
reproductions of Cash's own handwritten pages. Now an album with
music by Rosanne Cash, Brad Paisley, Willie Nelson, Kacey
Musgraves, Elvis Costello, and more. Since his first recordings in
1955, Johnny Cash has been an icon in the music world. In this
collection of poems and song lyrics that have never been published
before, we see the world through his eyes and view his reflection
on his own interior reality, his frailties and his strengths alike.
In his hallmark voice, he pens verses about love, pain, freedom,
and mortality, and expresses insights on culture, his family, his
fame, even Christmas. Forever Words confirms Johnny Cash as a
brilliant and singular American literary figure. His music is a
part of our collective history, and here the depth of his artistry
and talent become even more evident.
Prepared and edited by Rick Mooney, a well-known Suzuki teacher,
teacher-trainer and member of the Suzuki Cello Committee, these
books contain harmony parts to go with many of the pieces in the
Suzuki Cello School, Volumes 1, 2 and 3. All of these pieces have
been arranged to resemble, as much as possible, the existing piano
accompaniments. These ensembles enable a cello teacher (who does
not play or have access to a piano) to play harmony parts with
students to prepare them for the time when a piano and pianist are
available. Also, these parts give additional challenges for the
more advanced player during a group lesson. Volume 1 contents are:

Puccini's La boheme is one of the most beloved and enduring operas
of all time. In this guide, William Ashbrook evaluates the opera's
initial reception, the reasons for its wide appeal and Verdi's
influence on the composition. Nicholas John discusses the tortuous
evolution of the libretto over the course of three and a half years
and gives a synopsis, outlining the main themes of La boheme.
Edward Greenfield presents an essay on the musical structure and
consistency of the opera, whose 'very accessibility tends to
obscure the musical genius behind the score'. Finally, Joanna
Richardson surveys the Bohemians in Paris portrayed by Henry
Murger, whose stories formed the basis for Puccini's work. This
edition has over twenty photographs, a detailed thematic analysis
and the original libretto with a facing literal translation by
William Weaver. It also has an up-to-date bibliography,
discography, DVD and website details. The guide is essential
reading for anyone interested in the background to this opera, its
themes and composition.
Loaded with full-color photos from the many incredible scenes in
the movies and printed on high quality antique paper stock, this
new Dan Coates easy piano songbook is a must-have for any fan.
Contains twelve major themes from the blockbuster trilogy. From The
Fellowship of the Ring: The Prophecy * In Dreams * Concerning
Hobbits * Many Meetings * The Black Rider. From The Two Towers:
Gollum's Song * Rohan * Evenstar * Forth Eorlingas. From The Return
of the King: Into the West * The Steward of Gondor * Minas Tirith.
