Until fate-postmarked beyond the grave-arrives on her doorstep, this time in the form of a shiny red Fender Stratocaster and a mysterious box. Katherine is a journeywoman at the crossroads. Can the Strat tempt her into playing the Blues again? Will the box lead her to solve the mystery surrounding her birth? Will she find the strength to allow love and music back into her heart, and to, once again, fearlessly embrace life's rhythms and blues?

Book Synopsis Approaching the Standards, Vol 2 by : Willie Hill
Download or read book Approaching the Standards, Vol 2 written by Willie Hill and published by Alfred Music Publishing. This book was released on 2000-02 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "There are two groups of standards that help form the basic repertory used in jazz improvisation. The first group was created by jazz musicians directly from improvisation, experimentation and the analysis of musical forms, ideas and practices that were developed through study and the natural gifts of some of the greatest musicians of the twentieth century. This group codified jazz into chronological styles and provides concrete examples of its styles and concepts. The second group of standards is comprised of compositions written as popular songs during the first half of the twentieth century ... Every improviser is a composer who makes up melodies spontaneously. The model choruses give examples that can be studied, learned, broken into independent phrases and used to create other melodies that reflect more clearly what the improviser wants to say musically ..."--Preface
Download or read book Music of Yes written by Bill Martin and published by Open Court. This book was released on 2015-12-14 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unlike most books on rock music, Music of Yes does not focus on personalities, but instead on musical structures, lyrical vision, and cultural and historical context. Bill Martin situates one of the most creative groups from the progressive rock period, Yes, within the utopian ideals of the sixties and the experimental trend in rock music initiated by the Beatles and taken up by groups such as King Crimson, Jethro Tull, Pink Floyd, and others. Working against the seemingly entrenched cynicism and "blues orthodoxy" among rock music critics, Martin demonstrates the power of Yes's romantic, utopian, "Blakean," ecological, multicultural, and feminist perspective, showing how this vision is developed through extended musical works. "I think this book will stand out as the most definitive study of Yes, and anyway, how could I not like a book that compares my ability to that of John Coltrane and Jimi Hendrix?" —Chris Squire Co-founder of Yes "Yes fans will flock to this paean to the world of 1960s 'art rock'. . . Martin's points about the artistic aspirations of '60s and '70s 'progressive' music are thought-provoking." —Booklist
