  Have you ever wondered why learning the basics of playing a keyboard is not enough? Why do we need to take advanced lessons and hone our skills even further? How can advanced keyboard lessons push your hobby into something more serious, possibly as far as a career in music? This book will explore why advancing your keyboard learning journey is so important and how it can help you reach greater heights in the music industry. 
  First off, what exactly do advanced keyboard lessons entail? Many keyboard books provide basic tutorials on playing chords, scales, and other simple sounds, but these are too rudimentary for those who wish to take their music to the next level. Advanced keyboard lessons delve into more complex topics such as trills, textures, leaps, and even jazz and blues music. Through chapters 1-2, readers will learn about advanced chords to play on the piano. Chapter 3 explores melodic and harmonic scales, while chapter 4 delves into trills, textures, and leaps. It’s important to practice what you have learned and find ways to apply it within various musical genres and settings. In Chapters 5 and 6, we look at jazz and blues music as well as honing techniques to become a better player. We will look at how classical music can benefit from keyboard-playing techniques and explore jazz, pop, rock, and blues styles. With this knowledge under your belt, you will be in a position to bring creative energy into any performance.

Whether it’s detailing his parents difficult divorce, his family’s dark history of abuse, his run-in with a serial killer, or simply the best way to arrive at a wedding—which maybe is by helicopter and maybe it isn’t—he pulls no punches and outlines the good and bad of it all in this raucous autobiography.

  The Human City - Urbanism for...

  The author of The Coming of Neo-Feudalism and The New Class Conflict challenges conventions of urban planning. Around the globe, most new urban development has adhered to similar tenets: tall structures, small units, and high density. In The Human City, Joel Kotkin―called “America’s uber-geographer” by David Brooks of the New York Times―questions these nearly ubiquitous practices, suggesting that they do not consider the needs and desires of the vast majority of people. Built environments, Kotkin argues, must reflect the preferences of most people―even if that means lower-density development. The Human City ponders the purpose of the city and investigates the factors that drive most urban development today. Armed with his own astute research, a deep-seated knowledge of urban history, and a sound grasp of economic, political, and social trends, Kotkin pokes holes in what he calls the “retro-urbanist” ideology and offers a refreshing case for dispersion centered on human values. This book is not anti-urban, but it does advocate a greater range of options for people to live the way they want at all stages of their lives.Praise for The Human City “Kotkin . . . presents the most cogent, evidence-based and clear-headed exposition of the pro-suburban argument . . . . In pithy, readable sections, each addressing a single issue, he debunks one attack on the suburbs after another. But he does more than that. He weaves an impressive array of original observations about cities into his arguments, enriching our understanding of what cities are about and what they can and must become.” —Shlomo Angel, Wall Street Journal “The most eloquent expression of urbanism since Jane Jacobs’s The Death and Life of Great American Cities. Kotkin writes with a strong sense of place; he recognizes that the geography and traditions of a city create the contours of its urbanity.” —Ronnie Wachter, Chicago Tribune
