With dozens of full-color illustrations! This is a retrospective of
musical poetry by heavy metal guitarist and frontman, Matt Pike,
which spans twenty years beginning in 1998 with the album Art of
Self Defense up to the latest release, the 2019 Grammy-Award
winning record, Electric Messiah. Every chapter features brand-new
artistic interpretations from the minds and hearts of an incredible
cast of illustrators, tattooers, printmakers, and painters Pike has
been trusted since the beginning to depict his vision. The cast of
artists are Arik Roper, David V. D'Andrea, Santos, Brian Mercer,
Skinner, Jondix,Stash, Tim Lehi, Jordan Barlow, and Derrick
Snodgrass created brand new, never before seen works specifically
inspired by each album, including one large illustration to define
the chapter ahead and two additional vignettes that are directly
inspired by the songs. Each has their own bold and iconic style
that perfectly compliments the breadth of Pike's various works.
These prolific artists transport the reader further into a far-away
landscape of ominous Lovecraftian entities, shrouded in wondrous
and esoteric darkness. Together, they have redefined the way we
perceive Underground Doom Metal these past twenty years and it is
our honor to showcase them together along with the incredible
written word of Pike.
Written by drummer/educator Dave DiCenso, Universal Rhythms for
Drumset is a workbook with a concept designed to help demystify the
drummer's creative process. Working from the notion that the
majority of Western music is built upon five simple rhythmic
phrases, DiCenso offers creative tools that demonstrate how to
identify, interpret, and manipulate this five-rhythm alphabet in
order to improve one's understanding of rhythm as a language and
one's ability to speak it on a set of drums.
By applying an innovative eight-step "mastery system" to each
lesson, the reader is challenged to go beyond muscle memory and
improve cerebral skills such as pulse/space/shape awareness within
any groove, fill, embellishment, or solo; getting ideas to flow
seamlessly from mind to limbs to drums; understanding the space
other musicians occupy to make informed musical choices and create
a deeper band pocket.
Lessons that include over 500 exercises covering 28 drumming styles
are all based upon only five rhythms, and all examples in the book
are performed by the author on the included MP3 CD.

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.
A diverse and timeless collection of 66 famous chorales arranged
for concert band by Frank Erickson. The chorales are all arranged
in four parts (SATB) and, in addition to full band, are playable by
a wide variety of smaller groups, from quartet on up. Besides being
an excellent warm-up tool, 66 Festive and Famous Chorales for Band
provides a perfect opportunity to work on musicianship, phrasing,
balance and intonation.
Full score Following the enormous success of George Benjamin's
first opera Into the Little Hill (2006), there has been huge
anticipation in the musical world at the prospect of his first
full-length work in this genre. After a period of intense work and
isolation for Benjamin, his much-awaited new opera, Written on
Skin, was premiered at the Aix-en-Provence Festival on 7 July 2012.
A long standing ovation was the first of many marks of recognition
and praise for this extraordinary work which has been hailed by
critics as '[one of] the best operas of the 21st century so far,'
'the birth of a masterpiece.' The opera is scored for 60 players,
lasts 95 minutes and has a cast of five. An opera tour will be
conducted throughout Europe during 2013.
