Het "lied" is een zeer algemeen begrip dat vele soorten en vormen van liederen omvat. Wanneer we tegenwoordig het lied als kunstvorm beschouwen, bedoelen we in feite het lied met begeleiding van piano. Hoewel dat een ernstige beperking impliceert, behandelt Leo Samama in deze serie colleges toch overwegend dat klavierlied. Grofweg van Haydn en Mozart tot in onze tijd. Hij vertelt ook over de ontwikkeling van de spannende samenwerking tussen muziek en tekst. Begint de kracht van de muziek inderdaad waar die van de tekst ophoudt, of is de symbiose vele malen groter dan dat?

Elton John is not only "still standing," he is a living superlative, the ultimate record-breaking, award-winning survivor of the great era of pop and rock music that he helped to shape during his six decades in the music industry. Yet few of his numerous biographies and song guides take him as a historical subject worthy of scholarly study. In contrast, On Elton John approaches the artist seriously and analytically, while still couched in a highly accessible style.

The Story of Rock and Roll an epic tale with a cast of thousands (if you count the crowd at Woodstock), spanning more than a century. It’s also an American story (at least until the Beatles arrived) about music created by individuals clinging to the lowest rung of the social ladder who, nevertheless, invented a musical idea that engulfed the entire world, influencing all aspects of culture, and drawing every other kind of music into its orbit. It’s a story that has everything: scandal, betrayal, big money, murder, tragedy and triumph, long successful careers, and lives unexpectedly cut short.

Paul Rees’ Raised on Radio s, remarkably, the first biography of AOR (“Album-Oriented Rock”), critically derided at the time but massively popular during its 1976–1986 heyday when artists such as Journey, Boston, Foreigner, Toto, REO Speedwagon, Heart, Pat Benatar, Bryan Adams, and Styx sold many millions of albums and toured stadiums. Today, those very same songs are streaming in record numbers and many of the artists continue to play to sellout audiences around the world.

Imagine a world without the music of Stevie Wonder. A world without hits like “I Was Made to Love Her” and “Shoo-Be-Doo-Be-Doo-Da-Day.” That's the world we would live in had it not been for Sylvia Moy, a woman whose legacy has been carefully tucked away within the annals of music history—until now. It’s No Wonder examines the groundbreaking career of the pioneer who battled sexism and broke down barriers to become Motown’s first certified female in-house songwriter and producer.

Es gibt keine Grenzen mehr: Das glaubt man jedenfalls am Beginn der Neunzigerjahre. Die Berliner Mauer fällt, die Welt rückt zusammen, und sie vernetzt sich. Die ersten Knoten des World Wide Web werden geknüpft, die ersten Suchmaschinen programmiert. In Berlin wird Techno zum Soundtrack der Wiedervereinigung, Neonfarben beherrschen das Bild, Piercings und Tätowierungen erobern den Mainstream, das Arschgeweih gerät zum stilistischen Symbol der Dekade. Aber unter der heiteren Oberfläche brechen alte Konflikte auf, Gespenster aus der Vergangenheit kehren zurück.

In the late 1970s and early to mid 1980s, San Francisco was a creative incubator, bringing forth all manner of new music acts. Ground zero for the scene was the Mabuhay Gardens, home to huge barrels of popcorn, once a week spaghetti nights, colorful emcee Dirk Dirksen, and punk/new wave bands from all over the Bay Area. Concert booker and renegade radio deejay Howie Klein joined with Aquarius Records owner (and fellow deejay) Chris Knab to launch a record label in support of that scene.

Im ultimativen Nerdtalk beweisen Andy Brings und sein Gast Kevin Kuhn (DIE NERVEN), dass sie wortwörtlich „made for loving” KISS sind.

Es sieht nicht alles schlimm aus in den achtziger Jahren. Aber vieles. Es ist das Jahrzehnt der explodierenden Dauerwellen und Pornoschnauzbärte, der aufgepumpten Schulterpolsterjacketts und schrillen Herumprotzerei; in den Achtzigern werden die Yuppies zu Vorreitern einer neuen Egoistenkultur. Doch gleichzeitig herrscht die Angst vor der Apokalypse, vor dem Atomtod und der Umweltzerstörung; die Menschen sehnen sich nach Utopien und Zukunft, nach neuer Gemeinschaft und Wärme.
