  A revelatory work—grounded in the author's own pathbreaking research—that explores the capacity for meaning-making and connection through "musical daydreams." 
   
  We've all had the experience: a song comes on, and suddenly we're not where we were. We're back in the past, or living out a future that never happened, or imagining a scene that never existed. In Transported, Elizabeth Margulis explores the phenomenon of musical daydreams—the vivid, spontaneous, emotionally redolent scenes, stories, and memories we lapse into while listening to music—and argues that these everyday reveries offer a powerful and underappreciated window into how we think and feel. Drawing on cutting-edge neuroscience, psychology, ethnography, and revelations from her own teaching and research, Margulis debunks oversimplified myths and illuminates music's true potential to alleviate anxiety, reignite creativity, and foster connection. 
   
  At a time when distraction dominates, Transported makes a powerful case for music as one of the last realms where the mind is still free to wander.

  Spanning over decades, this is the remarkable, heartfelt memoir from Abdul 'Duke' Fakir, the last surviving member of The Four Tops. 
   
  Amidst a backdrop of Detroit, I'll Be There features revealing anecdotes from the group's formation, their early days as backup singers for the likes of Jackie Wilson, and their years working with Berry Gordy at the legendary Motown Records.With era-defining number ones like 'I Can’t Help Myself (Sugar Pie Honey Bunch)' and 'Reach Out I'll Be There' came stardom and also a more enduring reward: the love of four men who become tighter than brothers. Together they comprise one of the most celebrated R&B groups of all time. But remarkable musical success didn't spare Fakir the pain of marital distress, soured investment deals, struggles with sobriety, and the sudden loss of his brothers, all of which he covers in this confessional, unmissable book.

  Guitar Scales and Arpeggios isn't just a book of scales, it will teach you how scales and arpeggios can be created on the guitar. This will provide you with a deeper understanding of the logic behind them, making them more meaningful and therefore easier to learn in the long term. For intermediate level and above.
  - The Major Scale
  It all starts with the major scale, the basis of music. All other scales and arpeggios can be defined in comparison to this scale. The book reflects this in practical terms by categorising the major scale into three different fundamental shapes, which once understood, can be used as templates to figure out other guitar scales and arpeggios. This can lead to being able to work out and learn guitar scales and arpeggios yourself.
  - The CAGED guitar system
  This system can help to understand the larger CAGED guitar scale shapes in terms of their single octave components. For example, the five CAGED shapes for the major (or minor) pentatonic scales, each containing twelve notes, can be learned as only two shapes of five notes, which are joined end to end to give us the five full CAGED shapes.
  - What Else?
  
  -  Diagrams: 600+ fretboard diagrams, plus music theory charts, other diagrams and 20+ photographic examples.
  - Key Signatures: Understand how  scale construction relates to key signatures.
  - 3-Note Per String Guitar Scales: Understand  various 3-note per string scales  as the same combination of single octave component types.
  - Chord Harmony: Explore how basic major and minor chords are formed from  scales and learn how to create harmonies using triads and 7th chords.
  - Intervals: When grouped in the context of the scales they are intended for, this helps to  learn them. Intervals are also shown individually.
  - Guitar Modes and Scales: Learn the modes and how they are created on the fretboard.
  - Guitar Arpeggios: Major, minor, major 7th, dominant 7th, minor 7th, diminished 7th, augmented, major 7th #5, dominant 7th #5, dominant 7th b5 and minor(major)7th.
  -  Scales for Guitar: Major, minor, pentatonic scales, Dorian, Phrygian, Lydian, Mixolydian, Aeolian (minor), Locrian, blues scale, blue grass scale, dominant pentatonic, harmonic minor, Phrygian dominant, melodic minor and Lydian dominant.
  - Symmetrical Guitar Scales: Wholetone, diminished (whole half) and diminished (half whole).
  - Questions and Answers:  Test your skills with a question for each scale and arpeggio type, with the answer in guitar tablature at the back of the book.
  Enhance your playing and deepen your understanding of the guitar with Guitar Scales and Arpeggios.

  "The Nutkracker" is a full-cast audio drama featuring famous melodies, exquisite arias and outstanding voice actors.
  
  On Christmas Eve, Clara receives a nutcracker from her godfather, Drosselmeyer. That night she has a strange dream, in which the nutcracker fights alongside his toy soldiers against the Mouse King's army. Clara helps him, and the nutcracker transforms into a prince. Together they journey to the Realm of Sweets, where they are caught in a snowstorm and eventually arrive at Zuckerburg Castle. There the Sugar Plum Fairy presides over a fantastical celebration of sweets. It is a pity that it was all just a dream - or was it?
  
  Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky (1840-1893) was a Russian composer whose ballets "Swan Lake", "The Sleeping Beauty" and "The Nutcracker" became cornerstones of the repertoire. He studied at the Saint Petersburg Conservatory and later taught in Moscow, developing a melodic style that blends Western forms with Russian colour. His music gained international acclaim during his lifetime and he conducted the premiere of his "Symphony No. 6 'Pathétique'" in 1893 shortly before his death.
