Scale Fluency - Melodic Minor Modes

Graham Tippett

Beschreibung

Scale Fluency – Melodic Minor Modes will give you the complete picture for any melodic minor scale mode from any root across the entire guitar neck. In essence, it’s a practice method that ties all those loose ends together that you may have picked up from other scale systems such as the CAGED and 3NPS approaches, which leave you with an incomplete picture of the neck. It will also bring to life any scale theory you’ve learned as you’ll start to see the big picture and put names to what you’re playing, rather than trying to use unrelated bits of information that lead to many gray areas on the neck.
 
Scale Fluency is more than a set of patterns, it’s the most thorough scales practice method out there as we cover the neck both horizontally and vertically, leaving no stone unturned. All you need do is practice these patterns on a daily basis and watch the neck gradually open up for you.

Puccini: Bohème La

Thomson Smillie

La Bohème is one of the three operas – the others are Carmen and Aida – and is believed to be the most popular ever written. In the case of La Bohème the reason is that it virtually defines the term ‘romantic’. 
The poignant story of Mimì and Rodolfo is told in music of such tender beauty, allied, as always, to Puccini’s intuition of what works in the theater, resulting in an opera that readily appeals to our emotions and senses. 
‘Che gelida manina – Your tiny hand is frozen...’ The moment when Mimì and Rodolfo meet and first touch is one of the very great moments of opera – created by the master hand of Giacomo Puccini, who unerringly trod the fine line between romance and sentimentality. Thomson Smillie outlines the background to the opera, explaining how painstakingly the composer worked to achieve this effect. An absorbing introduction both for those approaching La Bohème for the first time and for those wanting to know a bit more than just the big arias.

Bach and The Tuning of the World...

Jens Johler

Everyone has heard of Johann Sebastian Bach's Well-Tempered Clavier – but hardly anybody knows anything about his journey to F sharp major.

In March of 1700, shortly before his fifteenth birthday, Johann Sebastian Bach set off on his journey. His destination: to create perfect music, music that unites heaven and earth in harmony. His search finally brought him to Lübeck, where he became acquainted with Andreas Werckmeister and the well-tempered tuning. In this tempering – and that is new! – you can play everything, all keys, in major and minor. But perfection has its price: All notes are "tempered" a bit, which means falsified; the music has a touch of artificiality from now on. And not only the notes and pitches – nature and people are also being tempered. Gardens are laid out with geometric precision, rivers are canalized, cities redesigned. Night becomes day thanks to street lighting, the pocket watch makes it possible to take along the time with you, the tuning fork enables choral pitch. The journey into an artificial world has begun. When Bach completed the Well-Tempered Clavier, he was overcome with profound doubt: Is not his work "only of this world" – perfect, artificial, profane?

"For us, Bach's life consists primarily of biographical gaps. We know some things; but we don't know much. These gaps offer a novelist his chance. The facts were my fetters but they were also my source of inspiration. I did not invent anything 'freely' in the meaning of arbitrarily, though." Jens Johler

"Jens Johler by no means turns the historical facts around.... Instead, he is writing a great of development novel in which private motifs and the course of time intertwine like fugue themes. " Harald Asel, rbb Inforadio

The Men Commandments

Christian O’Connell

'Women have Bridget Jones. Men have no one. Until now.' Ricky Gervais
In the best-selling tradition of Clarkson and Moyles, this is TV and Radio personality Christian O’Connell’s take on all things men.
For ten years Christian has dispensed his wisdom and advice to millions of lucky radio listeners on every topic conceivable. It was when he saw his wife reading and laughing at a book ‘How to Kill Your Husband’ that he realised he had to write this book.
In his sage opinion, men need to be saved from themselves. Women need to understand men better and stop hating them and men need to make sense of why they are they way they are.
'The Trouble With Men' reveals some hard but hilarious truths about the male race. Who do men actually look to for inspiration? The Hoff? Simon Cowell? James Blunt? Why do men behave in that odd way at barbecues? Why can a man have his heart broken a thousand times by his football team and yet still forgive them more than he would a woman?
With his outspoken humour and his ironic take on life, Christian explores male-dom, celebrating all that is great about being a man and unravelling the mysteries of masculinity that have stumped women for centuries.
Includes:Superheroes – all of them let us down. Here’s why.The Ultimate History of Men… from caves to Ikea.The Man Test – a highly unscientific flow chart to determine just how confused you are right now.The Perfect Man – if Apple designed men…Men and Cooking – the most important part of nutrition. TV snacks.What We Want from Women – show up naked. Bring beer.Rules and Codes – the unwritten, never discussed rules about how to behave in bathrooms, cars and out and aboutMen and Sex – ‘touch them there and they love it.’Imagine a World Without Us – heaven or hell?Communication – friend and foe.What’s the Point of Us? – enough with the slagging off. Here’s what we rule at…
Drawing from his own life, Christian O'Connell's The Men Commandments is more than just a biography; it's an autobiography that delves into the psyche of the modern man. It's a humorous, insightful exploration of masculinity that every man can relate to and every woman can learn from.
