Synopsis

In "Life of Liszt," Ludwig Nohl presents an intricate tapestry of the life and genius of the famed pianist and composer Franz Liszt. Nohl combines meticulous biographical detail with a lyrical narrative style, capturing Liszt's tumultuous relationships and artistic evolution. Set against the backdrop of 19th-century European music and culture, the book marries personal anecdotes with critical insights, reflecting the complexity of Liszt's contributions to the Romantic era and his pioneering role in the development of modern piano performance and composition. Nohl's acute observations and vivid portrayals immerse the reader in the vibrant milieu that surrounded Liszt, making the text a compelling read for both musicologists and casual enthusiasts alike. Ludwig Nohl, a contemporary of Liszt, was deeply enmeshed in the music circles of his time, which afforded him unique access to the composer's life and thoughts. His background as a pianist and musicologist equipped him with the skills to critically assess Liszt's work, while his personal acquaintance with the composer provided an authentic lens through which he crafted this biography. Nohl's insights were shaped by the Romantic ideals of his era, stressing emotional depth and individual experience in art. I highly recommend "Life of Liszt" to anyone interested in understanding the confluence of personal narrative and artistic innovation in the life of one of music's most transformative figures. Nohl's work not only sheds light on Liszt's unparalleled talent but also contextualizes his legacy within the broader movements of the Romantic period, making it an essential addition to any serious music library.

    My Song Unleashed: A Memoir

    As a child, Marnie’s unique voice earned her the nickname “The Rasp” from her dad. When other adults told her she’d never be a singer or that she talked too much, not only did Marnie start silencing herself, but she also began questioning her internal voice. She knew when she shared her truth—the way she’d done during a schoolwide presentation as a teen—it was life-changing. But more often, like many young women trying to make their way in the world, she muted and molded herself to accommodate others. It wasn’t until she traveled abroad and created a life far from home that she started finding her way back to her inner voice. And as she continued to explore the globe and connect with nature and with others, she discovered her inner voice was amplified.  
    In her memoir, “My Song, Unleashed,” Marnie Dachis Marmet takes readers through her journey of personal transformation. From the painful experiences that make her question everything to the beautiful revelations that bare the truth, Marnie ultimately shares what every woman needs to know: When you pay attention to and trust your voice, it leads you to what you truly want and value and, ultimately, what makes your heart sing. 
    Advance Praise: 
    “My Song, Unleashed’ is a delightful memoir about love, loss, compassion and finding one’s own path in life. Born into a large, well-known Minneapolis family, Marnie’s place in the world seemed almost preordained. Yet, it’s only when Marnie’s journeys take her away from her family and out in the world that she begins to find her voice and learn to trust her innate wisdom. Reading ‘My Song, Unleashed’ is like chatting with a close friend. Not only will you be rooting for Marnie through the pages of this memoir, her wisdom will help you lean into your own. A lovely read!” 
    —Kate Hopper, author of “Ready for Air” and “Use Your Words”

Black Panthers, apart from empowering the Black people, also dealt with the drug problem in the community. They took it on themselves to stop the drug trade. However, life is rarely that smooth. A few choices by Lawrence and Cornelius led to consequences. The book is a tell-all account of it all based on true events; nothing is left hidden. This is American history, the one you will never read anywhere else. The history that needs to be told.
