Beschreibung

Sacred Music explores the profound connection between music and religious practices worldwide. It illustrates how music acts as more than just an accompaniment, actively shaping religious experiences and beliefs, from ancient chants to modern hymns. The book examines how specific musical forms enhance prayer, meditation, and communal worship, while also fostering feelings of transcendence and connection to the divine.

 
The book progresses by first introducing sacred music's fundamental concepts and cultural contexts. It then examines vocal traditions like chants and hymns, followed by instrumental music's role in religious rituals, and culminates with the challenges facing sacred music today.

 
Understanding the historical and social contexts is crucial, and the book provides background on major world religions and their unique musical expressions. Through historical texts, ethnographic studies, and musical analyses, Sacred Music reveals how music reinforces religious identity and promotes social cohesion.

 
Approaching sacred music as a dynamic cultural practice offers a unique perspective, valuable to students of music, religion, and anyone interested in the spiritual dimensions of music.

    A Photographer's Impressions

    Francesc Català-Roca (1922 - 1998), was a Spanish photographer of great renown, considered a pioneer of documentary photography.
    Català-Roca: A Photographer's Impressions stands as a testament to an analog era, now almost entirely wiped out with the advent of the Internet and digital technologies.
    His photographic legacy is an invaluable visual testimony of the Spanish society of his time.
    His work in the 1940s, 1950s and 1960s represented the emergence of new street photography in Spain. For half a century, he travelled across Spain, masterfully capturing everyday scenes of the post-war era and the essence of urban landscapes. He worked alongside artists such as Joan Miró and Antoni Tàpies, immortalizing the art and culture of the 20th century.
    Thirty years after its first edition, photography and history enthusiasts will discover previously unpublished content to enrich historiographic narratives. The text, both entertaining and spontaneous, preserves not only anecdotes about events and figures of the 20th century, but also offers humanist ideas for a responsible and passionate approach to photography. Even though the technology of that time has long been surpassed, this book remains full of vibrant ideas, serving as an antidote to today's automatism, overconsumption, and globalization that can trivialize the image.

    A  new Christ refers to the idea that every individual has the potential to access the same divine power and creative ability as Jesus, allowing them to manifest their desires and achieve greatness in their own lives, essentially becoming a "Christ-like" figure through positive thought and action. "The very best thing you can do for the whole world is to make the most of yourself.". "There is one Mind, and I AM that Mind. That Mind is eternal, and it is Life. I am that Mind, and I am ETERNAL LIFE." "You can never become a great man or woman until you have overcome anxiety, worry, and fear." "The Principle of Power gives us just what we ask of it; if we only undertake little things, it only gives us power for little things; but if we try to do great things in a great way it gives us all the power there is.

    Most rock ’n’ roll books are a bore. They all have the same narrative arc and are aimed at the dwindling following that now follows an artist that has long passed their AARP date. 
    		 
    Sound N’ Fury does not have a story arc. It is a collection of anecdotes, like a record comprised of various tracks — each one has its point and purpose. Alan Niven, who guided Guns N’ Roses from the gutter of Los Angeles to Wembley Stadium, shares stories from his remarkable life as a manager with an immediacy delivered by an extraordinary recall of dialogue. Readers will encounter not just Guns N’ Roses (who have sold almost 10 million tickets to their shows) but The Rolling Stones, Aerosmith, Clarence Clemons, Whitesnake, Elton John, and others who came from humble origins and experienced fame known only to few. Small-town minds collided with worldwide adulation, expectations, and demands. The results are amusing, affirming, and, predictably, disastrous. Keep in mind that rock ’n’ roll is God’s occupation for the unemployable.
    		 
    Written with a crisp and fluid style, the magnificence and idiocy of the music world will dance off the pages and engross even those who are not rock fans.
