With this brilliant and uncompromising work perhaps the most famous musical work of the twentieth century Stravinsky changed the course of modern music forever. Discarding conventional harmonies for bizarrely dissonant chords, and uniform metrics for harshly jarring beat patterns, he created a sensational theater piece that, at the work's 1931 premier, caused the music world's most talked-about riot. "Every law of musical syntax, every canon of harmony seems to have been violated, every limit of rhythmic perversity and eccentricity of orchestration exceeded in this tumultuous cataclysm of sound," says "Grove's"; "yet with all its deliberate crudity and violence the 'Rite' is a clearly planned and perfectly controlled and coordinated piece of music [that] has long been accepted universally as a masterpiece and is in the repertory of every large symphony orchestra." Reproduced here from an authoritative edition, the score is ideal for study in the classroom, at home, or in the concert hall. This affordable, durable, and portable volume will be the edition of choice for music students and music lovers alike."

Four-Handed Monsters surveys the cultural perception of four-hand piano playing in the nineteenth century. As the piano became a central institution of the bourgeois household and as piano transcriptions created a stable canon of classic works, four-hand playing became a ubiquitous and structurally important buttress of domestic life, provoking reflections in the literature, philosophy, journalism and the visual arts of the age.

The return of a timeless classic of mounting, subtle horror that has haunted generations of readers. A woman is trapped in her own body. She's a speechless, paralyzed, and truly helpless, cared for by her seemingly loving family. But she knows with chilling certainty that one of them is trying to kill her...and will soon strike again...and she is unable to tell anyone or defend herself. Or is she? "A scary one. Lawrence at her best, with a surprising plot and a baffling mystery. " Los Angeles Daily News "Tense, taut and terrific...will disturbingly charge the atmopshere and chill the marrow of your bone. Lawrence is quite successful in capturing mood, character, and a unique situation. Subtle horror that's hard to beat." Montgomery Advertiser "Expertly written, filled with suspense. It will make the reader look over his shoulder and turn on every light in the house." St. Louis Post-Dispatch "This is on a different plane of horror. The comfort and luxury of the suburban home bring out in striking contrast the evil that pervades the sickroom and closes in on its helpless victim. A Grade-A shocker...inspires hair-raising fear in a genteel, immensely effective way" New York Times "Whacking good, written with delicate subtlety and guaranteed to chill the blood." Boston Globe "Hilda Lawrence is more skill than average in the writing of suspense novels, in creating moods of terror and horror. [This] is excellent fare for the fan who is tired of conventional mystery." Capitol Times (Madison, Wis)

Für Komponisten interessant sind die ausführlichen Analysen von zeitgenössischer Gitarrenliteratur, die viele Beispiele aus Kammer- und Ensemblemusik mit einbeziehen. Vier Hauptkapitel beschreiben - Techniken der rechten und der linken Hand - Besondere Harmonien und perkussive Techniken - Die Hauptinstrumente der Gitarrenfamilie und ihre Möglichkeiten - Notationsmöglichkeiten für zeitgenössische Gitarrenliteratur Detaillierte Grafiken zu Multiphonics-, Bitones- und Perkussions-Techniken sowie Audio-Tracks, auf die aus dem Buch heraus verlinkt wird, ergänzen die im Buch beschriebenen Beispiele.
