Nelson Riddle


Book Description

'This book is about one of my all-time heroes, Mr Nelson Riddle. It makes for fascinating reading and I am enjoying it very much.' SIR MICHAEL PARKINSON NELSON RIDDLE was possibly the greatest; one of the most successful arrangers in the history of American popular music. He worked with global icons such as Peggy Lee, Judy Garland and many more. And in a time of segregation and deep racial tensions in the US, he collaborated with leading black artists such as Nat King Cole and Ella Fitzgerald, forming close, personal friendships with both. He also wrote successful TV themes and Oscar-winning film scores. A complex and often forlorn genius, he will forever be remembered for his immortal work with FRANK SINATRA, but like fine wines his later vintage was just as palatable, if somewhat of a surprise.

My Heart Beats


Book Description

A beautiful photographic board book featuring babies from all over the world and the sounds their hearts make as they beat with love. No matter what language we speak, no matter where we live in the world, our hearts beat with the same rhythm. We may hear and say the sounds differently—doki doki in Japanese, tu tump tu tump in Italian, dugeun dugeun in Korean, dhak dhak in Urdu, boum boum in French and thump thump in English—but when our hearts beat, all the sounds mean the same thing: you are alive and you are loved.




Heartbeat of the People


Book Description

The intertribal pow-wow is the most widespread venue for traditional Indian music and dance in North America. Heartbeat of the People is an insider's journey into the dances and music, the traditions and regalia, and the functions and significance of these vital cultural events. Tara Browner focuses on the Northern pow-wow of the northern Great Plains and Great Lakes to investigate the underlying tribal and regional frameworks that reinforce personal tribal affiliations. Interviews with dancers and her own participation in pow-wow events and community provide fascinating on-the-ground accounts and provide detail to a rare ethnomusicological analysis of Northern music and dance.




Harmony's Heartbeat


Book Description

In the tranquil haven of Harmony Bay, where the lapping waves compose a soothing symphony against the glistening shores, a tale of rekindled passions and rediscovered purpose unfolds. Within this idyllic coastal town, the meeting of two souls, both adrift in the turbulent currents of their lives, sets the stage for an extraordinary journey of self-discovery and love. Amidst the gentle embrace of the ocean breeze, Richard Mitchell, a once-celebrated musician, now a disillusioned wanderer, finds solace along the rugged coastline. His heartache and thwarted dreams find an unexpected outlet as he crafts exquisite instruments from the remnants of forgotten treasures washed ashore. Little does he know that these unique creations will weave together the destinies of individuals far beyond the confines of his quiet sanctuary. Gianna Hartman, a renowned music producer haunted by the trappings of success, hears whispers of Richard's unconventional artistry. These echoes of melodies that defy convention stir a dormant passion within her, and she embarks on a journey to Harmony Bay to unearth the source. When their paths finally cross, it's as if the universe itself orchestrated their encounter, drawing them together in pursuit of a shared destiny. The harmony they create is not limited to the music that emanates from Richard's reclaimed instruments; it extends to the cadence of their hearts finding resonance in one another. As their collaborative efforts in music flourish, so too does an unspoken connection that transcends words. But the path they tread is not without discord. The tumultuous undercurrents of fame, the haunting shadows of past failures, and the relentless demands of the music industry threaten to drown out the delicate notes of their love story. In 'Harmony's Heartbeat,' the reimagined notes of salvaged instruments intertwine with the rhythm of love and perseverance. The resulting symphony is more than an arrangement of musical notes, it's a testament to the healing potency of melodies, a celebration of human connection through art, and a reminder that even the most discordant of circumstances can be transformed into harmonious tunes with the right companionship. Join Richard and Gianna as they navigate the tempestuous waters of fame, passion, and self-discovery. Feel the resonance of their journey as it reverberates through the pages of this heartwarming tale, reminding us all that amidst life's chaos, the music of the heart can guide us to our own harmonious ever after.




A Heartbeat and a Guitar


Book Description

A Heartbeat and a Guitar tells of the collaboration of two distinct yet connected musicians--iconoclast Johnny Cash and pioneering folk artist Peter La Farge-- Bitter Tears: Ballads of the American Indian, the album that influenced the likes of Bruce Springsteen and Bob Dylan. In this intimate portrayal of the two musicians, D'Ambrosio interviewed surviving members of Cash's band, his producers, and admirers Pete Seeger and Kris Kristofferson. He renders a dramatic picture of both an era of radical protest and the making of one of the most controversial and enduring works of political pop art of the 1960s. A Heartbeat and a Guitar is the inspiration for the new album "Look Again to the Wind: Johnny Cash's Bitter Tears revisited" featuring a collective of top Americana artists including Emmylou Harris, Steve Earle, Gillian Welch, and Kris Kristofferson.
