The Beatles' North American tours turned the entertainment business on its ear and forever changed the landscape of the concert touring industry. In February 1964, after finally achieving a number-one hit in America, the Fab Four came to the country with high hopes, performing on the wildly popular Ed Sullivan Show in both New York City and Miami and playing concerts at Carnegie Hall and the Washington Coliseum. In just fifteen short days, the Beatles conquered America. The Beatles made music-entertainment history with their North American tours from 1964 to 1966.Some Fun Tonight! The Backstage Story of How the Beatles Rocked America: The Historic Tours of 1964-1966 is a comprehensive two-volume set which gives you a city-by-city synopsis of the group's activities as they traveled the United States and Canada for their groundbreaking series of concerts.

Enthält CD mit Welt-Ersteinspielung von John Eliot Gardiner. Par BACH JOHANN SEBASTIAN. Scored for Soprano solo, 2 Violins, Viola, Basso Continuo. In May 2005 the Leipzig-based musicologist Michael Maul made a sensational discovery in Weimar. While sifting through the Herzogin Anna Amalia library he unearthed the manuscript of a sacred aria by Johann Sebastian Bach which was previously completely unknown. It is the first time since 1935 that a new Bach Vocal work has been discovered. The aria consisting of twelve verses is written for solo Soprano, Strings and Basso Continuo and opens with the words “ Alles Mit Gott Und Nichts Ohn’ ihn ”. It was composed in 1713 to celebrate the 53rd birthday of DukeWilhelm Ernst of Saxe-Weimar who employed Bach as court organist from 1708 until 1717. This Vocal work is Bach ’s sole contribution to the genre of strophic aria. Each verse is accompanied by basso continuo and followed by a lively string ritornello, making this work a pièce d’occasion of exquisite quality. Full score & parts (BA5246) and facsimile (BVK1870) available for sale./ Répertoire / Divers
