Women in Music
Women in Music: A Research and Information Guide is an annotated bibliography emerging from more than twenty-five years of feminist scholarship on music. This book testifies to the great variety of subjects and approaches represented in over two decades of published writings on women, their work, and the important roles that feminist outlooks have played in formerly male-oriented academic scholarship or journalistic musings on women and music.

Peregrine Roderick Clyde-Brown is a bumbling, naive and savagely dim-witted teenager, who, as his name reveals, cannot possibly be exposed to the evils of a comprehensive school. However, with his penchant for taking even the most innocent command literally, no reputable school will accept the boy who, when told that he must turn over a new leaf, begins fondling the foliage.

In a school that time forgot, Peregrine's 'talents' for taking orders and having no discernible individual thought seem perfect for a promising career in the upper ranks of the British Army.

Dosáhl oslnivých úspěchů v italských operních domech včetně prestižního neapolského divadla San Carlo, jeho opery se uváděly u příležitosti královských oslav a spolupracoval s mnoha proslulými pěvci své doby, jako byli Caterina Gabrielli, Anton Raaff a Luigi Marchesi. Tato kniha z pera amerického muzikologa Daniela E. Freemana představuje dosud jedinou moderní vědeckou monografii věnovanou Myslivečkovu životu a dílu. První část rekonstruuje na základě dochovaných dok...
