A house, too, can be a battlefield, and a garden a wilderness. The house here belongs to Faber and Thea: middle-class, middle-aged, probably more than middle-income and in a mid-matrimonial rut of mutual laissez-faire. Also in the house is their young ward Flora, to whom Faber has been making sexual advances. And there are visitors. Thea's sister Denise is taking a break from other distant battlefields, where she is engaged in the struggle against oppression. A black writer, Mel, is here as well with his white lover Dov, a musician: the first homosexual couple to be 'out' on the operatic stage.These people's entanglementswith each other but also, and more importantly, within themselveshave to be addressed, as in Tippett's first opera. But this time the Mozart model is Cosi fan tutte, and the lessons of myth are clothed in the language of psychiatry, as practised by Mangus, the Don Alfonso who may not be as much in control as he would hope. In the last act he stages a performance of The Tempest, which comes adrift. Perhaps more has been achieved in the middle act, a swirl of short scenes ending in an exchange of songs between Flora and Dovan exchange, too, of homages to Schubert and the blues, both held in the magic of this lustrous score.(Paul Griffiths)

'Handbuch der popularen Musik' is a standard work which is aimed at music lovers and experts alike. In addition, it tries to both satisfy the listeners' and fans' need for information and provide performing musicians, music editors or music teachers and not least students of corresponding fields of study with a compendium for consultation purposes. Containing more than 1,000 entries, this book examines the forms as well as the historical, cultural and economic background of popular music, including the whole range from pop, hip-hop and electronic dance music via rock, jazz, blues, folk and world music to chanson, musical, wind music and folk song. The book deals with current and historical developments, techniques, instruments, the various aspects of practical music-making and the basics of music production. The fully revised new version of this handbook takes into account not only the effects of the digital revolution on the production and circulation of music, from on-line services to mobile music, but, by including company and label portraits, the defining role of music history in past and present times as well.

Rhapsody in Blue is probably George Gershwin's best known work. This publication provides all advanced level pianists the chance to experience this delightful piece.

In Rhapsody in Blue is George Gershwins veelzijdigheid duidelijk te horen: hij laat ritmes en harmonieen uit de Amerikaanse jazz en blues samensmelten met een 'klassiekere' stijl die doet denken aan de negentiende-eeuwse Europesepianoconcerten. Een geweldig werk voor iedere gevorderde pianist.

Die weltberuhmte Rhapsody in Blue von George Gershwin in einer hervorragenden Transkription fur Blasorchester von Tohru Takahashi. Ein guter Pianist und ein sehr gutes Blasorchester sind die Zutaten, die es braucht, um mit diesem Stuck das Publikum zu begeistern.

This piece can be a worthwhile vehicle for students to develop understanding of eighth note subdivisions, articulations, dynamics, and phrasing in a fun way. (2:10).
