Download or read book The 16th Song written by David Powell and published by David Powell. This book was released on 2015-04-07 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Peter Daniels, a talented composer and pianist, is alone in the turbulent Paris of the 1950’s when Marie Gautier, an attractive translator and her charismatic boy friend, Jean-Claude Gubler, a radical young lawyer, befriend him. Working as he does in the demi-monde of illegal immigrants and left wing causes, Jean-Claude helps him find work replacing an American pianist who has broken his fingers in a fight in a jazz club. When the man is deported Peter moves into his flat and discovers a sheaf of unpublished but brilliant music. When Peter hears of the man’s suicide in an American jail, the music becomes both his treasure and his guilty secret. At the same time, the political and criminal forces that Jean-Claude opposes pursue them and destroy their relationship, forcing Peter to run for his emotional life back to a life with Hannah, his student girlfriend. Almost by accident, his illicit musical treasure trove makes him rich, but its source makes him secretive and this secrecy, along with his suspicious nature, threaten to break his marriage. Yet the music acts as a conduit to the past and try as he might, he cannot escape the spotlight it draws to him. Peter learns that just as events control his life, and his need for secrecy perverts it, and he worries that his past will destroy him before he can prove to himself his real worth as a musician.

Download or read book Singer Songwriters and Musical Open Mics written by Marcus Aldredge and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-01 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Singer-Songwriters and Musical Open Mics is an ethnographic exploration of New York City’s live music events where musicians signup and perform short sets. This sociological study dispels the common assumption that open mics are culturally monolithic and reserved for novice musicians. Open mics allow musicians at different locations within their musical development and career to interactively perform, practice, and network with other musicians. Important themes in the book include: the tension between self and society in the creative process, issues of creative authenticity and authorship, and on-going cultural changes central to the Do-It-Yourself cultural zeitgeist of the early 21st century. The open mic’s cultural antecedents include a radio format, folk hootenannies, and the jazz jam session. Drawing from multiple qualitative methods, Aldredge describes how open mics have etched a vital organizational place in the western and urban musical landscape. Open mics represent a creative place where the boundaries of practicing and performing seemingly blur. This allows for a range of social settings from more competitive, stratified, and homogenous music scenes to culturally diverse weekly events often stretching late into the night.

Download or read book John Smyth Mysteries Set written by James R. Coggins and published by Moody Publishers. This book was released on 2005-04-01 with total page 652 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This set includes all three books of the John Smyth Mysteries series: Who's Grace?, Desolation Highway, and Mountaintop Drive. In Who's Grace?, James Coggins presents a fast-paced murder mystery with a twist. A Christian magazine editor named John Smyth witnesses a murder through the window of an airplane as it descends for a landing in Winnipeg, Canada. Neither the city police nor the RCMP (Mounties) take his tip seriously until an unidentified woman's body turns up in some nearby woods two weeks later. The only clue to her identity is a necklace with a pendant bearing the name 'Grace.' Who is she, and where is her killer? As the case twists and turns, everyone involved gets to see clear evidence of the grace of God. In Desolation Highway, two bodies are found in the forest near the Yellowhead Highway in northern British Columbia, prompting Sergeant Wesson and other members of the local detachment of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police to begin searching for a serial murderer. Suspects include a woodsman who makes wildlife sculptures using a chainsaw, an antisocial doctor, a strange woman engaged in occult practices, and a group of Native youth addicted to gasoline sniffing. As more dismembered bodies turn up, John Smyth, editor of Grace magazine in Winnipeg, visits the area and starts putting pieces of the puzzle together. In Mountaintop Drive, it is just like a second honeymoon when diminutive editor John Smyth and his wife, Ruby, are invited to stay in a beautiful mountaintop house while attending a church convention in Canada's "Bible Belt." Everything seems perfect--until the woman next door is murdered. Has trouble from the impoverished streets of old Abbotsford invaded the upscale community of Mountaintop Drive?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Named the best radio station in America by Rolling Stone magazine four years running, WFMU is considered the alternative radio station. LCD (Lowest Common Denominator), the station's program guide—begun in 1986 as a visual counterpart to WFMU’s oddball programming—was a wicked cocktail of satire, cultural news, alternative history, and provocative artwork that has earned its own devoted cult followers. It ceased publication in 1998 and its back issues have become treasured—and valuable—collector’s items. Dave the Spazz has spent the past twenty years hosting a weekly radio show on WFMU, self-publishing, freelance writing, making artwork, singing in punk-rock bands, and holding down one crummy job after another.
