オペラの入門書はもうたくさん世の中にありますし、かくいう私も書いたことがあります。

Vienna, 1871. Al terzo piano di un appartamento al numero 4 di Karlsgasse, un «vagabondo senza indirizzo» ha trovato casa e concluso così, dopo i pellegrinaggi degli anni di formazione e dei primi successi, la sua giovinezza raminga. L'uomo si chiama Johannes Brahms e dieci anni dopo quel rigido giorno di dicembre decide di ripercorrere la sua vita, sottraendo i frammenti di una storia lontana e unica dalla nebbia della memoria.

¿De qué bailaora era la foto que llevaban los soldados en la Primera Guerra Mundial? ¿y de quién se prendó el rajá de Kapurthala?, ¿Quiénes eran las puellae gaditanae? ¿Cuáles son las grandes dinastías flamencas? ¿En qué ciudad estadounidense nació el cantaor y tocaor John Lane, Pollito? ¿Cómo terminó el reto entre Rosario la Mejorana y Gabriela Ortega en el escenario, y cuál de ellas perdió el hijo que esperaba?

ボブ・ディランの歌を初めて耳にしたのはたしか1964年の春だったと思います。 　横浜のセント・ジョセフ・カレッジに通っていたぼくは放課後、遊び仲間たち と元町のシェルブルーというレストランでハンバーガーを食べながら何かの話で 盛り上がっていました。それは、出たばかりのローリング・ストーンズのアルバ ム『ザ・ローリング・ストーンズ』についてだったかもしれないし、土曜日に YCAC(横浜カントリー・アンド・アスレティックス・クラブ)で開催されるダンス パーティの話だったかもしれないし、だれかのガールフレンドの話題だったかも しれません。何はともあれ、ぼくたちはコークを飲み、ハンバーガーを頬張り、 取り留めのない話に花を咲かせていました。 （本文より） ロバート・ハリス　運命のダイスを転がせ！ はこちらから→http://yakan-hiko.com/robert.html

ＮＨＫ等放送のドキュメンタリーでも話題！　部員たちとの日々の「軌跡」と最後の一年の「奇跡」を描いた、ノンフィクションノベル。

Throughout his genre-defying career as one of the most innovative musicians of our time, iconoclastic guitar player Marc Ribot has consistently defied expectation at every turn. Here, in his first collection of writing, we see that same uncompromising sensibility at work as he playfully interrogates our assumptions about music, life, and death. Through essays, short stories, and the occasional unfilmable film "mistreatment" that showcase the sheer range of his voice, Unstrung captures an artist whose versatility with words rivals his dexterity onstage. 

John Cage has been described as the most important composer of our time. He combined classical European training with Eastern spirituality to produce an American amalgam of such vitality and originality that it continues to define what we mean by avant-garde. His influence has touched generations of artists, including Philip Glass, David Byrne, and his longtime collaborator Merce Cunningham. His work and ideas have influenced not only the world of music but also dance, painting, printmaking, video art, and poetry.

The story of Stax Records unfolds like a Greek tragedy. A white brother and sister build a record company that becomes a monument to racial harmony in 1960’s segregated south Memphis. Their success is startling, and Stax soon defines an international sound. Then, after losses both business and personal, the siblings part, and the brother allies with a visionary African-American partner. Under integrated leadership, Stax explodes as a national player until, Icarus-like, they fall from great heights to a tragic demise.

Simon Critchley first encountered David Bowie in the early '70s, when the singer appeared on Britain's most-watched music show, Top of the Pops. His performance of "Starman" mesmerized Critchley: it was "so sexual, so knowing, so strange". Two days later Critchley's mum bought a copy of the single; she liked both the song and the performer's bright orange hair (she had previously been a hairdresser). The seed of a lifelong love affair was thus planted in the mind of her son, aged 12.

Through personal essays and interviews, punk musician and cultural icon Lydia Lunch claws and rakes at the listener's conscience in this powerful, uninhibited feminist collection.

John Eliot Gardiner grew up passing one of the only two authentic portraits of Bach every morning and evening on the stairs of his parents’ house, where it hung for safety during World War II. He has been studying and performing Bach ever since, and is now regarded as one of the composer's greatest living interpreters. The fruits of this lifetime's immersion are distilled in this remarkable book, grounded in the most recent Bach scholarship but moving far beyond it.

El flamenco es arte, pasión, dolor, sentimiento... y misterio. Muchas han sido las teorías que, a lo largo de la historia, se han formulado para explicar su origen, su excepcionalidad y su endemismo andaluz. Algunas, puramente nominalistas y radicalmente erróneas, como la de que viene de Flandes; otras, simplemente reduccionistas, como la de que es un arte gitano. Blas Infante lanzó una nueva y clarividente teoría al asociar su origen con el íntimo dolor de los derrotados y humillados andalusíes y moriscos, fellah mengu, de la que vendría la expresión de flamenco.

L’uguaglianza, la fine delle guerre, la solidarietà, il rispetto per l’ambiente non sono soltanto i temi di cui ogni giorno, e con sempre più forza, si impara ora a discutere, ma anche ciò in cui Edoardo Bennato crede con forza e i valori che da sempre, con le sue canzoni, porta avanti. La sua discografia, infatti, può essere letta come un’antologia di spirito civico e un manuale di teoria e pratica della rivoluzione: attraverso il filtro giocoso e ironico delle sue storie, i suoi singoli più famosi.

Bob Dylan non si fa intervistare. Quella che dipinge il musicista come schivo, riservato, persino scontroso è in realtà una leggenda metropolitana. Certo, Bob Dylan non ha mai amato essere costretto a tenere rapporti continuativi con la stampa. Ma nel corso della sua lunga carriera ha tenuto molte conferenze, ha partecipato a programmi radiofonici e televisivi, chiacchierato con giornalisti e scrittori, rilasciato interviste mirate. Spesso ha risposto in modo evasivo o sibillino a domande banali e di poco conto, però quando gli si rivolgevano domande intelligenti offriva risposte rivelatrici sulla sua musica e sulla sua vita privata.

Il 21 settembre 1981 è una data scolpita nella Storia della musica italiana: quel giorno Franco Battiato pubblica il suo undicesimo album, La voce del padrone. È il più pop e al tempo stesso il più difficile, infatti che cosa vorrà mai dire "cerco un centro di gravità permanente"? E un’atmosfera così festosa, i testi quasi incomprensibili ma che rimangono subito in mente, le musiche coinvolgenti ma spiazzanti, che cosa significano?
