Book Description
A 14 year old girl with extreme musical talent is dying of cancer. Her father (a special government agent), a strange visitor from another planet simply calling himself the Music Man and four powerful beings who accompany him converge on Earth to thwart a pending attack in our future. But can they do it in time? Who can be trusted? Will the young girl realize her destiny in time before she dies? What will happen to Earth if she fails? Why is all this related to only music? What did a fifth airplane on 9/11 have to do with the young girl? The Music Man has been sent to Earth by four special beings. But why was he sent here and what does he know about Earth? How can a 14-year-old girl save our planet? A genius inventor, a radical doctor and a NASA video surveillance specialist all become part of the now complex countdown. And we just have a little over 677 years to become prepared for the inevitable.

The Music of James Tenney
Author: Robert Wannamaker
Publisher: University of Illinois Press
ISBN: 0252052579
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 464
Book Description
A work-by-work guide to the composer's groundbreaking music Robert Wannamaker's monumental two-volume study explores the influential music and ideas of American composer, theorist, writer, performer, and educator James Tenney. Delving into the whole of Tenney's far-ranging oeuvre, Wannamaker offers close, aurally grounded analyses of works linked to the artist's revolutionary theories of musical form, timbre, and harmonic perception. Written as a reference work, Volume 2, A Handbook to the Pieces, presents detailed entries on Tenney's significant post-1959 experimental works (excepting pieces covered in volume 1). Wannamaker includes technical information, an analysis of intentions and goals, graphs and musical examples, historical and biographical context, and thoughts from Tenney and others on specific works. Throughout, he discusses the striking compositional ideas found in Tenney's music and, where appropriate, traces an idea's appearance from one piece to the next to reveal the evolution of the composer's art and thought. A landmark in experimental music scholarship, The Music of James Tenney is a first-of-its-kind consideration of the experimental music titan and his work.
