Peaceful Piano Playlist: Christmas presents a chilled collection of
over 20 festive piano solos for the intermediate pianist. Inspired
by the popular Peaceful Piano playlists available on streaming
services, it features both original pieces and arrangements of
well-known Christmas songs by Ryuichi Sakamoto, Kate Bush, Joni
Mitchell, Luke Howard, Alexis Ffrench and many more. "Peaceful
Piano Playlist: Christmas sets the bar high...this is a rewarding
collection which offers plenty of fresh value, even to the pianist
who already owns other albums of Christmas favourites. Here is a
collection which is distinctively different and genuinely magical."
Andrew Eales, November 2022, www.pianodao.com
The Viola da Gamba Society Thematic Index of Music for Viols (ed.
Gordon Dodd), 1980-92 (and continuing), is composer-based. The
present volume initiates a companion project to catalogue
manuscripts containing consort music. The editors are all highly
experienced in the field and have newly examined all sources.
Volume 1 features over 50 MSS whose copyists or owners are known:
Bing, Hutton, Jenkins, Le Strange, Lilly, Merro, North. As well as
a detailed inventory of every book (with anonymous work identified
where possible), the descriptions include information on date,
size, binding, paper, rastra, watermarks, collations, scripts,
inscriptions and provenance, together with bibliographical
references. Brief notes on the owners and copyists are provided. Of
particular importance is the inclusion of facsimiles of all hands.
Also included is a comprehensive study and illustration of
watermarks by Robert Thompson (serving for the whole series). With
some printed catalogues such as the British Library and Christ
Church, Oxford, now nearly 100 years old, this new and
comprehensive study will be an invaluable tool for future research.
This comprehensive collection for all guitarists includes 100 songs in genres from jazz standards, to pop/rock favorites, Motown masterpieces and movie music, to traditional tunes, country numbers and classical pieces. Notation styles include: note-for-note transcriptions (Blue on Black * Give Me One Reason * Sweet Child O' Mine * Wild Thing); Easy Guitar with Notes and TAB (Building a Mystery * Circle of Life * Day Tripper * Fur Elise * Misty * Torn * Walk This Way); Easy Guitar (Boot Scootin' Boogie * I Shot the Sheriff * My Favorite Things * Unchained Melody); Chord Melody Guitar (Alman * Bourree * Estudio); Fingerstyle Guitar (Amazing Grace * Greensleeves * My Heart Will Go On); and Guitar Riffs (Angie * Brown Eyed Girl * Here Comes the Sun * Layla * My Girl); and more! Essential for every player!

This book is a cultural history of the nineteenth-century songster:
pocket-sized anthologies of song texts, usually without musical
notation. It examines the musical, social, commercial and aesthetic
functions songsters served and the processes by which they were
produced and disseminated, the repertory they included, and the
singers, printers and entrepreneurs that both inspired their
manufacture and facilitated their consumption. Taking an
international perspective, chapters focus on songsters from
Ireland, North America, Australia and Britain and the varied public
and private contexts in which they were used and exploited in oral
and print cultures.
Samuel Babcock was an active Boston-area composer who made a
significant contribution to the repertory of American psalmody.
Best known for his tunebook, "Middlesex Harmony, " Babcock composed
extended and plain psalm tunes, set pieces, fuging tunes, and
anthems, and frequently used three-part vocal textures. He uniquely
combined elements of both traditional and newer Methodist styles of
psalmody. This edition includes 75 works known to be by Babcock,
plus six of unknown attribution.

In 1971, as her groundbreaking album Blue emerged as a singular
commercial and critical success around the world, Joni Mitchell puzzled
over what gift to give her friends that Christmas.
The result was a handmade book, with only one hundred copies produced,
filled with Joni’s hand-written lyrics and reproductions of many of her
stunning drawings — portraits, abstracts, random concertgoers, and more.
Each was given to a friend and, until now, the edition has remained
private. Today, with Morning Glory on the Vine, Joni’s long-ago
personal Christmas present is a present to us all.
