Comp oser and critic Cyril Carr Dalmaine graduated from the Royal College of Music and was Music master at Uppington School before going on to become chorus master to the BBC. He is most famous for coining the term 'Lord Haw-Haw' in his work as radio critic of the Daily Express under the pseudonym Jonah Barrington, in reference to the Nazi propaganda broadcasts of William Joyce during the Second World War.

Dalmaine was also a record presenter in the pre-1955 days and responsible for the 'discovery' of the then deceased Italian tenor, Alessandro Valente, giving Valente enjoyed a considerable posthumous vogue. As a composer Dalmaine wrote chamber music, and transcribed the cantatas of J.S. Bach to piano as well as a wide range of piano and string works published by Forsyth. His works such as Variation from Versailles and Pathway to the Proms remain in print and are well worth re-discovering, while his arrangements of popular classics in our Silhouette Series remain best sellers.

No Beethoven chronicles the life and times of drummer Peter Erskine, with the legendary band Weather Report being the nexus to this first-hand account. Erskine was in the midst of the modern American jazz music scene as it underwent its most dynamic change. Peter Erskine is a musician of his times with incredibly rich stories to tell in this autobiography. Including never-before published photographs.

No Beethoven includes chapters dedicated to Weather Report and the musicians Joe Zawinul, Jaco Pastorius, and Wayne Shorter, plus the bands Steps Ahead, Steely Dan, and artists such as Elvin Jones, Joni Mitchell, Freddie Hubbard, Diana Krall, Steve Gadd, producer Manfred Eicher, composers John Williams, and Mark-Anthony Turnage, et al. The book provides a revealing look at the creative process involved in performing music on-stage and in the recording studio, as well as a behind-the-scenes look at how the musical instrument industry operates.

This is a book for all musicians and fans of music. As famed drummer and Rush founder Neil Peart writes: No Beethoven is among the best musical autobiographies I have read. Peter's story is absorbing and compelling, full of well-drawn characters and incidents both humorous and serious. It flows with the same ease and naturalness as his drumming, and under that good-humored gloss, it conveys the same profundity of experience and ideas. This book should be read not only by every drummer, but by every musician. Even amateurs of music performance will find it entertaining and worthwhile.

Jarenlang luisterde Peter Kleine Schaars met zijn jazzkwartet diverse festiviteiten en gelegenheden op. Het ensemble wisselde indien gewenst het jazzrepertoire af met pop en latin. De ervaring leerde de muzikanten hoe ze elk feestdynamisch konden afsluiten met een uur onovertroffen repertoire. Kleine Schaars koos hieruit zelf zijn favoriete popstukken en arrangeerde ze in zijn levendige medley That’s the Way (I Like Them).

Viele Jahre lang unterhielt Peter Kleine Schaars' Jazz-Quartett bei diversen Festlichkeiten und Gelegenheiten - je nach Wunsch mit Jazz oder auch mit Pop und lateinamerikanischer Musik. Dabei stellten die Musiker immer wieder fest, dass eine Stunde absolut spitzenmäßiges Pop-Repertoire der perfekte Schlusspunkt einer jeder schwungvollen Party ist. Aus dieser praktischen Erfahrung heraus wählte Kleine Schaars seine Lieblings-Pop-Stücke aus und arrangierte sie in vorliegendem lebhaften Medley mit dem Titel That's the Way (I Like Them). Unschlagbar in jedem unterhaltsamen Konzertprogramm!

She’s Madonna is de derde single van het album Rudebox van de wereldberoemde Britse popzanger Robbie Williams. Hij schreef het nummer samen met Chris Lowe en Neil Tennant, de Pet Shop Boys, en dat is goed te horen aande sound. De opvallende titel verwijst naar het gerucht dat Guy Ritchie - toen hij zijn vriendin verliet voor superster Madonna - zei: “I love you baby, but face it, she’s Madonna.” Peter Kleine Schaars maakte een vakkundig arrangementvan deze herkenbare hit.

Mit She’s Madonna, einer Hommage an die große Popdiva Madonna, die Robbie Williams zusammen mit den Pet Shop Boys aufnahm, gelang es dem Briten, an seine größten Hits wie Angel oder She’s the One anzuknüpfen. Peter Kleine Schaars bearbeitete den schönen, eingängigen Song aus dem Album Rudebox für Blasorchester.

Rudebox est un des grands opus de la méga-star Robbie Williams. Parmi la longue liste des artistes ayant collaboré cet album, on citera les Pet Shop Boys l’origine du titre She’s Madonna (en hommage Madonna), une splendide ballade électro-pop, chanson-phare de l’année 2007.
