There are few musical instruments that have given the world more joy than the ukulele. Ever since it evolved from a pair of small Portuguese instruments introduced to Hawaii in the late 1800s, this little guitar-liked four-string has significantly impacted American musical tastes and culture. Almost from its inception, the ukulele has been the object of innovation, with droves of luthiers experimenting with all manner of non-traditional body shapes, building materials, decorative details and colorful finishes. For the first time in print, this book presents an extensive overview of vintage ukuleles, from the earliest Hawaiian sopranos to the plastic ukes made in the 1950s and 60s. The book's extensively researched text is filled with fun facts and colorful stories about the individuals and companies that manufactured ukuleles, the performers who played them, and, of course, the instruments themselves. 540 full-color photos reveal the beauty and detail in every one of the hundreds of vintage ukuleles featured in the this book, most from the author's own collection.

Written in 2007, this sonata was inspired by playing alongside a series of amazing contra bassoonists; Nick Lander, Alex Moss, Luke Whitehead and Sarah Nixon, who made me realise it's amazing potential as a solo instrument. Whilst the outer movements are jazz (even rock!) based, I decided on a simple folk tune like melody for the slow movement to show off the beautiful lyric voice of the contra, and a rhythmic dance form juxtaposing duplet and triplet rhythms for the ‘scherzo’.

The Italian 'madrigal' style of this music, unusual for English composers, arose from the special circumstances of Roman Catholic composers who chose to work on the continent. Dering himself was organist to a community of Benedictine nuns in Brussels, whose Abbess was an English noblewoman. These 21 motets for SSATTB were published in Antwerp.

The Wind Serenade Op.102, was Wilhelm Berger’s last work, written 1910 shortly before he died following a long illness and an operation. It was first performed in Berlin after his death, and was very well received. He handles the different instruments with skill and imagination, creating a whole as well as a mass of delightful detail. Apart from omitting the contra-bassoon, Berger has adopted the same instrumental ensemble as did Richard Strauss for his Serenade and Suite. The music is in the fine tradition of romantic writing for wind, but Berger abandons the classical arrangement of movements and produces new and exciting changes of mood, key and colour. The manuscript is held in the Deutsche Staatsbibliothek in Berlin, who made a copy available for the preparation of the first edition of the Serenade Op. I02, first published by Phylloscopus Publications, editors F.H. Nex and C.M.M. Nex. This brand new edition, published nearly 30 years later, is also edited by F.H. Nex and C.M.M.

This edition of Ports of Call by Jacques Ibert, features the scores for the whole orchestra. This romantic piece for large orchestra was composed in 1922 and is inspired by the author?s experience in the Mediterranean Sea when he was in the navy. Slightly Impressionist, this piece is one of those who made is international reputation. Jacques Ibert (1890-1962) also composed many symphonic suites, operas and seven orchestras, including Angelique (1926) and Divertissement (1930).

Quilting, co-commissioned by the BBC Symphony Orchestra and the Los Angeles Philharmonic, is my first stand alone work for orchestraand is loosely inspired by the American tradition of quilt making. I composed Quilting while living most of last year in Paris.During my time there, I thought a lot about what it means to compose symphonic music as a young American in the 21st century, when so many of the many masterworks which are programmed year in and out by orchestras across the country are European. I considered which artistic traditions defined the American 19th-century. I began to think of the American crafts-tradition of quilting as a foilto the high-art tradition of European orchestral composition. As the score for my new work began to take shape, I started thinking about the manuscript itself as an object, its vertical and horizontal planes create a kind of patterned geometry of their own. Visually the way a musical score is woven together like patchwork brought to mind quilts and the great American tradition of quilting. I imagined about how conducting an orchestra can feellike stitching a piece together, or sewing together a large number of musical ideas and musicians into a coherent and transcendent whole. Quilting was an integral part of American vernacular in the 18th and 19th centuries, the African-American quilting tradition is especially fascinating, and the quilts tell the stories of the women and communities who made them. The names of the quilt patterns themselves can have their own sense of narrative: 'jacobs ladder', 'drunkards path', 'solomon's puzzle', and (my favorite for its relevance to this piece) 'the road to California. - Bryce Dessner.

Per Norgard DANCERS AROUND JUPITER I: 'Shadow Dancer', dedicated to Axel Borup-Jorgensen, as my birthday greeting on the composer's 70th birthday 22.11.94 II: 'Jupiter Waves', dedicated to Dr. Jeffrey D. Thompson III: 'Day Dancer', dedicated to the dancer and choreographer Marie Lalander, as a homage: Marie wrote the line which inspired me for the title: 'Woman, oh you day dancer'. The title of the whole work is immediately intelligible if one compares the individual titles of the outer movements with the title of the middle movement. Axel Borup-Jorgensen and Marie Lalander could be said to be in rotation around Jupiter in the following sense: Axel's music has a 'shadowdancing' side, which can most clearly be heard in his works for harpsichord and double-bass - or in his work for organ. But his music has also a light side, which can be heard in 'Marin' or in 'Nordic Summer Pastorale'. Marie's dance and choreography contain both ecstatic forces of light and expressions of the suppressed and dark. The music of the middle movement on the other hand is in all ways inspired by the actual acoustic ion waves, that constantly arise through the collision of the sun wind with Jupiter's magnet field (registered by Voyager II, 1989). This movement is dedicated to Dr Jeffrey D. Thompson who made these NASA registrations publicly available in the CD-series 'NASA Voyager Space Sounds'. Per Norgard.

Feelings is a well-known easy listening hit that was written halfway through the 1970s, by the Brazilian singer-songwriter Morris Albert. However, the melody is derived from a French song (Pour toi) from 1957, written by Louis Gaste, who made this claim successfully. Over the years, Feelings has been performed by famous artists like Ella Fitzgerald, Frank Sinatra and Elvis Presley. Numerous arrangements have been made for various instrumentations. This arrangement by Roland Kernen does justice to the original.Feelings is een bekende easy-listeninghit van halverwege de jaren zeventig.

Après huit ans de bataille juridique menée aux États-Unis (1981-1987), Loulou Gasté obtient réparation en 1988 et une reconnaissance définitive de la paternité de sa chanson. En 1975, cette chanson a été réenregistréepar Mike Brant qui la réintroduit en France sous le titre Dis-lui. Il s’agit d’une des dernières chansons enregistrée par l'artiste avant sa mort.
