The critic Norman Granz called tenor saxophonist Lester Young "the greatest musician I have heard on the instrument." Douglas Ramsey speaks of Young as "the gentle bedeviled genius whose vision of beauty found expression even though he was hounded throughout his life by nearly every demon the twentieth century had managed to spawn." This is his story, told with love and candor.
Providing illuminating insights into Liszt's working methods, this book investigates the composer's transcriptions in their musical, cultural, and historical contexts.
Sanity Rising is a myth-shattering book in two parts. The first part, Unnecessary Evil, focuses on society as the foremost cause for evil in the world. There are societies that focus on elitism, societies that encourage fooling one another for profit, and societies that restrict individual thinking. As ethical freethinking societies emerge, unnecessary evil will become pass. Part two of Sanity Rising addresses Excelling in The 21st Century. One example of part two's unique chapters is the one on charisma. Possibly for the first time ever, charisma has been quantified. By following three simple steps any reader can now become charismatic. Two parts of Sanity Rising combine for a refreshing blend of philosophy and self-help. They trumpet the simple truths for creating a better world, and provide guidance for becoming rich and famous in the new century.
Lesbians and gays have gone from "coming out," to "acting up," to "outing," meanwhile radically redefining society's views on sexuality and gender. The essays in Inside/Out employ a variety of approaches (psychoanalysis, deconstruction, semiotics, and discourse theory) to investigate representations of sex and sexual difference in literature, film, video, music, and photography. Engaging the figures of divas, dykes, vampires and queens, the contributors address issues such as AIDS, pornography, pedagogy, authorship, and activism. Inside/Out shifts the focus from sex to sexual orientation, provoking a reconsideration of the concepts of the sexual and the political.
