Download or read book The Complete Lyrics of Oscar Hammerstein II written by Oscar Hammerstein II and published by Knopf. This book was released on 2008-11-25 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From every “beautiful mornin’” to “some enchanted evening,” the songs of Oscar Hammerstein II are part of our daily lives, his words part of our national fabric. Born into a theatrical dynasty headed by his grandfather and namesake, Oscar Hammerstein II breathed new life into the moribund art form of operetta by writing lyrics and libretti for such classics as Rose-Marie (music by Rudolf Friml), The Desert Song (Sigmund Romberg), The New Moon (Romberg) and Song of the Flame (George Gershwin). Hammerstein and Jerome Kern wrote eight musicals together, including Sweet Adeline, Music in the Air, and their masterpiece, Show Boat. The vibrant Carmen Jones was Hammerstein’s all-black adaptation of the tragic opera by Georges Bizet. In 1943, Hammerstein, pioneer in the field of operetta, joined forces with Richard Rodgers, who had for the previous twenty-five years taken great strides in the field of musical comedy with his longtime writing partner, Lorenz Hart. The first Rodgers and Hammerstein work, Oklahoma!, merged the two styles into a completely new genre—the musical play—and simultaneously launched the most successful partnership in American musical theater. Over the next seventeen years, Rodgers and Hammerstein wrote eight more Broadway musicals: Carousel, Allegro, South Pacific, The King and I, Me and Juliet, Pipe Dream, Flower Drum Song, and The Sound of Music. They also wrote a movie musical (State Fair) and one for television (Cinderella). Collectively their works have earned dozens of awards, including Pulitzers, Tonys, Oscars, Grammys, and Emmys. Throughout his career, Hammerstein created works of lyrical beauty and universal feeling, and he continually strove—sometimes against fashion—to seek out the good and beautiful in the world. “I know the world is filled with troubles and many injustices,” he once said. “But reality is as beautiful as it is ugly . . . I just couldn’t write anything without hope in it.” All of his lyrics are here—850, more than a quarter published for the first time—in this sixth book in the indispensable Complete Lyrics series that has also brought us the lyrics of Cole Porter, Lorenz Hart, Ira Gershwin, Irving Berlin, and Frank Loesser. From the young scribe’s earliest attempts to the old master’s final lyric—“Edelweiss”—we can see, read, and, yes, sing the words of a theatrical and lyrical genius.

Download or read book Open The Door written by Catherine Carswell and published by Canongate Books. This book was released on 2010-07-01 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Joanna Bannerman, capricious, selfish and warm-hearted, passionately seeks life and ‘loveliness’. Certainly the bustling streets of Glasgow at the turn of the century promise much greater excitement than the solid evangelical background she has known hitherto. Her studies in the School of Art open up new horizons – of independence and love – and Joanna reaches for them all. First published in 1920, this novel powerfully evokes the image of a young woman ensnared yet ultimately released by her capacity for emotion. It contains a strong autobiographical element and is also a powerful evocation of the life and industry of the Second City of the Empire.

Download or read book Danish written by ScrewTheDaisies and published by Rockfic Press, LLC. This book was released on 2006-05 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lars Ulrich is a bundle of contradictions. He's been the mouthpiece for Metallica for decades. He's never at a loss for words. He's warm and welcoming on the one hand...on the other, sarcastic and obnoxious with a sense of humour that many might find a little warped. One thing the man doesn't inspire is apathy: you either love him or you hate him. He delights in winding people up. Does this get on some people's nerves? Oh, yes! Many are totally turned off by his cocky arrogance, his healthy-sized ego, his verbocity, his "Metallica's way or the highway" attitude, his pure ballsyness. Who else would dare to get right up into James Hetfield's face and scream "Fuck!" at the top of his lungs.... And maybe that's why he's been the inspiration for so much band fiction, a mere twenty-nine stories of which are collected here. Important: Neither Rockfic Press nor the authors are associated with Metallica or Lars Ulrich. Neither Metallica nor Lars Ulrich endorse this book. This book been published without Metallica or Lar Ulrich's involvement or permission. Also: this book is entirely fictional and not meant to reflect the actual actions / feelings / associations / etc. of these bands and musicians, past or present.
