Writers, painters and other artists she has sought out as her friends and role models fill her life in California’s diverse and fascinating Bay Area. But personal fulfillment continues to elude her. During an intense summer romance with vibrant, young Chelsea Nichols, Harper thought she had finally found what was missing. At the end of that summer, however, Chelsea returned to her ex. Harper catalogued the experience under Life Lessons and slowly healed her broken heart. Now, it’s summer once again, with all the promise of new beginnings. It’s looking like a summer of surprises when Harper's runaway teenaged niece shows up in the most unexpected of places—Chelsea’s house. That's when Harper realizes that not all the surprises will be pleasant ones. From the author of Waltzing at Midnight comes a story of music and love told through a lifetime of summers, when one woman must decide how much of her heart she will risk for the ultimate prize.
Download or read book Songs Without Words written by Paul Verlaine and published by Omnidawn. This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Songs without Words (Romances sans paroles) is the book in which, unabashedly, Paul Verlaine becomes himself and, in so doing, becomes the iconic poet of the French nineteenth century. A book of musical sequences, it seeks and finds exquisite purity of expression, best exemplified by Il pleure dans mon coeur, the most famous and most inimitable of all French lyric poems. And it is a book of intertwining narratives also, each of which entertains abasements and ecstasies, crises, crimes and expiations. These, in their separate ways, detail the shadowlands of artistic purity. Verlaine adores and defiles his child-bride, Mathilde. He takes to the road with Arthur Rimbaud, the love of his life, his muse, his captive and captor. Exhaustion is everywhere counterpoised with exaltation, squalor with splendor. And yet, in nearly every syllable, the dignity of Poetry and of human affections, proves inviolable.

Download or read book Songs Without Words written by Sandra Mangsen and published by Boydell & Brewer. This book was released on 2016 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Keyboard arrangements of vocal music flourished in England between1560 and 1760. Songs without Words, by noted harpsichordist and early-music authority Sandra Mangsen, is the first in-depth study of this topic, uncovering a body of material that is remarkably varied, musically interesting, and indicative of major trends in musical and social life at the time. Mangsen's Songs without Words argues that the pieces upon which these keyboard arrangements were based constituted a shared repertoire, akin to the jazz standards of the twentieth century. In Restoration England, the ballad tradition saw tunes and texts move between oral, manuscript, and printed transmission and from street to playhouse and back again. During the eighteenth century, printed keyboard arrangements were aimed particularly at female amateur keyboardists and helped opera to become a widely popular genre. Songs without Words considers a wide range of model pieces, including songs of many kinds and arias and other numbers from operas and oratorios. The resulting keyboard versions range from simple and pedagogically oriented to highly virtuosic. Two central issues -- the relationship between an arrangement and its model and the reception and aesthetics of arrangements -- are explored in the framing chapters. The result is a study that will be of great interest to scholars, performers, and anyone who loves the music of the late Renaissance, Baroque, and early Classic eras. Sandra Mangsen is professor emerita of music at the University of Western Ontario.
