Sinopsis

Concert Halls explores the captivating intersection of architecture and acoustics in creating exceptional musical experiences. The book delves into how architectural design and the science of acoustics converge to shape the sonic environment within performance spaces. It highlights how elements like reverberation time and sound diffusion directly impact the perceived sound quality, influencing how we experience music.

 
For instance, the book examines how a concert hall's shape, such as the famed "shoebox" design of Vienna's Musikverein, contributes to its warm, enveloping sound. The study of concert hall architecture reveals a rich history, influenced by evolving musical tastes and technological advancements.

 
Concert Halls progresses from foundational concepts in acoustics to detailed case studies of iconic venues like Amsterdam's Concertgebouw, celebrated for its clarity. By combining architectural plans, acoustic measurements, and historical insights, the book illustrates how specific design choices affect the overall listening experience. Ultimately, it emphasizes that successful concert halls are meticulously engineered environments, optimizing the emotional impact of music.

    In 'We The Youth": Keith Haring's New York Nightlife', the second book in his Art Decades series, Dave Haslam explores how the nightlife and music of rundown downtown areas of New York in the late 1970's and early 1980's were formative influences on the life and art of Keith Haring. 
    Haslam takes us on an adventure through the clubs and venues that filled Keith Haring's nights out; spaces that offered thrill, opportunities, possibly, and a sense of community. We hear how graffiti artists and DJs became inspirations to him; we meet Madonna, the B-52's, Arthur Russell, Grace Jones and Jean-Michel Basquiat; and then the mid-80's AIDS epidemic changes everything... 
    Art Decades is a highly original and wide ranging series of mini books by writer, broadcaster and former Hacienda DJ, Dave Haslam. From Courtney Love to Sylvia Plath, from homelessness to cultural regeneration, the series explores a variety of subjects rooted in cities, in recent history and lived experience, and a love for music, literature, and art.

    Leonard Cohen has aimed high: to be all Jewish heroes at once. Like Jacob, he struggled with angels. Like David, he sang psalms and seduced women. But he never ceased doing what he did best: going from city to city and reviving our hearts. Leonard Cohen: The Man Who Saw the Angels Fall follows the singer’s cosmopolitan life from Montreal and New York to the Greek island of Hydra and examines his perpetual dialogues with himself, God, and avalanches.
    		 
    We see how six decades of radiant pessimism and a few thousand nights in hotel rooms transformed a young Jewish poet who longed to be a saint into an existentialist troubadour in love with women and a gravelly-voiced crooner who taught a thousand ways of dissolving into love.
    		 
    After more than two decades of research and travels, Christophe Lebold, who befriended the poet and spent time with him in Los Angeles, delivers a stimulating analysis of Cohen’s life and art. Gracefully blending biography and essay, he interrogates the mission Cohen set out for himself: to show us that darkness is just the flip side of light.
