  Before Bob & Ray, comedians told jokes. After Bob & Ray, they told stories. When they first got together in 1946 on WHDH-AM Boston, no one guessed that their subtle, intelligent, deadpan brand of humor would revolutionize the comedic landscape. With a gift for an improvisation and a keen understanding of the absurd, Bob Elliott and Ray Goulding created a universe of wonderful characters and rewrote the rules for what’s funny. Consider any important comedy star since—Bob Newhart, Garrison Keillor, Woody Allen, Johnny Carson, George Carlin, Jay Leno, David Letterman, Jerry Seinfeld—and you can hear the debt to Bob & Ray. This collection honors the two and only with selections from their early years (1950s, ’60s, and ’70s) and public radio years (’80s), their 1984 Carnegie Hall performances, and previously unreleased archival recordings.

  Claude Debussy is regarded by many as the quintessential French composer, with musicthat invited both warm applause and frosty criticism in his day. While our ears no longerhear him as controversial, his works heralded the dawn of an artistic period founded oninnovation and experiment, and a desire to break with the past in search of new expressivemeans. With never a dull moment, Debussy went from being a musical misfit at the ParisConservatoire to bohemian life amongst the Symbolist poets and some scandalous loveaffairs. The transformative effect of pieces such as the Prélude à l’après-midi d’un fauneeventually saw him awarded the Chevalier of the Légion d’Honneur in 1903. The narrativeis illustrated with musical excerpts from Children’s Corner, String Quartet No. 1, Images,Nocturnes and Pelléas et Mélisande, among many others.

  When you’re learning to play the piano or electric keyboard, knowing what the lines and spaces on a staff represent and how the notes on your instrument correspond to those on sheet music isn’t enough to become a proficient musician. Although you’re a beginner, you can improve your abilities in many ways. You don’t only need to know the correct keys to press and when to play them. A vast world of music theory and compositional variety greatly changes certain aspects of a song and ways to craft and play musical pieces to express yourself more freely. 
  Having the knowledge to reproduce what you read on sheet music is a wonderful skill, but music isn’t about rigidly following directions. Every composer and musician should develop their style and form. You can hand a piece of sheet music to a dozen talented piano players, and each will perform it uniquely. The song’s structure is the same, but there will be little techniques and flourishes that set them apart from the others. How music feels when you play is as important as hitting the right notes in the correct order.  
  Everybody has to start somewhere when learning a new instrument. Thanks to the simplicity of the piano’s layout, there is intuitiveness to each key moving from one note to the next. They span from A to G♯ (A♭) and reset back to A so the cycle of notes can repeat. With practice, you will locate the correct notes without looking at the W 2 keyboard. It helps with reading sheet music since you can focus on it instead of constantly looking down at the keys. Once you have a handle on reading sheet music, you can play songs tailored to novice musicians in no time.
