Book How Not to Be a Dick

Download or read book How Not to Be a Dick written by Meghan Doherty and published by Zest Books ™. This book was released on 2019-08-01 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the one hand, nobody wants to be a dick. On the other hand, dicks are everywhere! They cut in line, talk behind our backs, recline into our seats, and even have the power to morph into trolls online. Their powers are impressive, but with a little foresight and thoughtfulness, we can take a stand against dickishness today. How Not to Be a Dick is packed with honest and straightforward advice, but it also includes playful illustrations showing two well-meaning (but not always well behaved) young people as they confront moments of potential dickishness in their everyday lives. Sometimes they falter, sometimes they triumph, but they always seek to find a better way. And with their help, you can too. Just see the agreement at the beginning of the book: I pledge to use the tools and techniques provided in this book to help make the world a less dickish place. "Doherty fires absurd twenty-first-century zingers that happen to be really, really, really funny."—starred, Booklist

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the years approaching the centenary of Mahler's death, this book provides both summation of, and starting point for, an assessment and reassessment of the composer's output and creative activity. Authored by a collection of leading specialists in Mahler scholarship, its opening chapters place the composer in socio-political and cultural contexts, and discuss his work in light of developments in the aesthetics of musical meaning. Part II examines from a variety of analytical, interpretative and critical standpoints the complete range of his output, from early student works and unfinished fragments to the sketches and performing versions of the Tenth Symphony. Part III evaluates Mahler's role as interpreter of his own and other composers' works during his lifelong career as operatic and orchestral conductor. Part IV addresses Mahler's fluctuating reception history from scholarly, journalistic, creative, public and commercial perspectives, with special attention being paid to his compositional legacy.

  • ISBN : 9780571363360

Download or read book Mstislav Rostropovich written by Elizabeth Wilson and published by Faber & Faber Classical Music & Dance. This book was released on 2021-09-02 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new edition of the seminal work on one of the world's most celebrated cellists, Msitislav Rostropovich. Mstislav Rostropovich (1927-2007), internationally recognised as one of the world's finest cellists and musicians, always maintained that teaching is an important responsibility for great artists. Before his emigration in 1974 from Russia to the West, Rostropovich taught several generations of the brightest Russian talents - as Professor of the Moscow Conservatoire - for twenty-five years. His students included such artists as Jacqueline de Pr , Natalya Gutman, Karine Georgian and many others. Within these pages, Elizabeth Wilson vividly charts Rostropovich's musical development and the pivotal points in his career. Drawing from her own vivid reminiscences and those of former students, documents from the Moscow Conservatoire, and extensive interviews with Rostropovich himself, Wilson defines the philosophy behind his teaching and vividly recaptures the atmosphere of the Conservatoire and Moscow's musical life. This paperback edition includes a new introduction and epilogue by the author.
