Book Description
‘Alexis is a womanizer recovering from a temporary illness that cut short his previous associations. He was coming to terms with his new life that limits his affairs and leaves him with his own thoughts. But fate had to intervene in the form of a university girl he befriends who gets killed suddenly, leaving him with the unfinished remains of a novel by his favourite writer. That manuscript leads him into a sleepy, mysterious town which was the scene of a disappearance a few months ago. And his pursuit for a successful ending to the novel leads him into a moral and intellectual labyrinth- at once sensual and sinister- that shows no sign of ending.

TV's Biggest Hits
Author: Jon Burlingame
Publisher: Schirmer Trade Books
ISBN: 9780028703244
Category : Television music
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Everybody loves TV themes - from the silly "Mr. Ed" and "The Addams Family" to the intense "Mission: Impossible" and "Peter Gunn" to the atmospheric "Hill Street Blues" and "The X-Files". But few people know how this music is made, or the stories of the men and women who have worked tirelessly (and often anonymously) to create it. This book offers the complete story of this important musical style, giving it the serious, and colorfully anecdotal, history it deserves. Divided into chapters on each genre, Burlingame provides the real stories of the composers who worked behind the scenes to create the memorable music we all love. Among those who have written and performed for television include many famous musicians - like jazz pianists Dave Brubeck and Duke Ellington, arranger/producer Quincy Jones, film music giant John Williams, Broadway composer Richard Rodgers, and classical composer Morton Gould. Illustrated throughout with rare photos of the composers at work, this is a fascinating story of how a new genre of musical artistry was created.

Vocal Tracks
Author: Jacob Smith
Publisher: Univ of California Press
ISBN: 0520942841
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 304
Book Description
This entertaining and innovative book focuses on vocal performance styles that developed in tandem with the sound technologies of the phonograph, radio, and sound film. Writing in a clear and lively style, Jacob Smith looks at these media technologies and industries through the lens of performance, bringing to light a fascinating nexus of performer, technology, and audience. Combining theories of film sound, cultural histories of sound technologies and industries, and theories of performance, Smith convincingly connects disparate and largely neglected performance niches to explore the development of a modern vocal performance. Vocal Tracks: Performance and Sound Media demonstrates the voice to be a vehicle of performance, identity, and culture and illustrates both the interconnection of all these categories and their relation to the media technologies of the past century.
