Audiokniha od autora: David Lagercrantz, čte: Martin Stránský. Délka nahrávky: 14 hodin, 53 minut. Stieg Larsson svou sérii Milénium nedokončil, a tak po něm štafetu převzal spisovatel David Lagercrantz, jenž dál zaplétá osudy sympatického investigativního novináře a oblíbené dívky, která nenechá na pokoji žádné "vosí hnízdo". Časopis Milénium má nové majitele a jeho kritici tvrdí, že Mikael Blomkvist kvůli syndromu vyhoření uvažuje o změně zaměstnání. Pozdě v noci Blomkvistovi zavolá profesor Frans Balder, přední odborník na výzkum umělé inteligence. Tvrdí, že má důležité informace o americké zpravodajské službě a že byl v kontaktu s výbornou mladou hackerkou, která se podobá někomu, koho Blomkvist dobře zná. Mikael doufá v exkluzivní reportáž, kterou on i Milénium tak zoufale potřebuje. Lisbeth Salanderová má jako obvykle své vlastní plány. Nadešel čas, aby se jejich cesty ještě jednou zkřížily.

Audiokniha: Třetí temný kriminální případ pro geniálního profesora Hanse Rekkeho a osobitou policistku Micaelu Vargasovou. Na sklonku 80. let se vydali Dag a Pompe na automobilový trip ze Švédska na jih. Ve španělském Santanderu se seznámili se Sandrou, místní servírkou, kterou oba intelektuálně založení mladíci velice zaujali. O pár dní později našli Sandru brutálně ubitou k smrti, se zvláštními řeznými ranami na rameni. Pachatele zločinu se nepodařilo vypátrat. Dvacet let poté navštíví Rekkeho Rafael Corales, šéf týmu, který Sandřin případ vyšetřoval. Je přesvědčen, že ke stejným vraždám došlo i v Dánsku. A ve Finsku. Oběti mají na těle podobné značky.

Audiokniha: „Vždycky jsem se tě chtěl zeptat na to dračí tetování…“ zmíní jednoho dne Holger Palmgren, který získal dokumenty vrhající nové světlo na bezpráví, jež Lisbeth Salanderová zažila v dětství. Dotazovaná si v té době odpykává kratší trest v ženské věznici Flodberga a směřuje k nevyhnutelnému konfliktu se spoluvězeňkyněmi. Požádá tedy Mikaela Blomkvista, aby jí pomohl s dalším pátráním v minulosti. Stopy vedou k Leovi Mannheimerovi, partnerovi makléřské firmy. Jak jsou osudy bohatého mladého muže propletené s dávným Lisbethiným traumatem? Když už se „dívka s dračím tetováním“ jednou rozhodla zjistit pravdu, nic ji nemůže zastavit – ani islámští radikálové, které rozčílila snahou zachránit z jejich spárů dívku toužící po nezávislosti; ani vězeňský gang, jenž nad ní vyřkl rozsudek smrti; ani její nebezpečné dvojče Camilla; ani lidé, kteří udělají cokoli, aby zakryli rozsah svých pseudovědeckých experimentů vedených pod hlavičkou Registru pro výzkum dědičnosti a prostředí. Mikael a Lisbeth znovu spojují síly, aby v napínavém thrilleru čelili některým z naléhavých problémů, které sužují i současnou společnost. Pokračování trilogie Stiega Larssona Milénium, kterou dalšími romány rozšířil David Lagercrantz. Pátý díl navazuje na předchozí audioknihu Dívka v pavoučí síti.

Audioknihu Temnota napsal autor: David Lagercrantz, čte: Lukáš Hlavica. Celková stopáž: 13 hodin, 37 minut. Nová, mistrovská detektivka od pokračovatele Stiega Larssona. Hans Rekke je charismatický profesor s geniálním hudebním talentem a dokonalou pozorovací schopností. Z každého dostane, co potřebuje. Odhalí i ten nejskrytější motiv lidského jednání. A až příliš dobře rozumí temnotě v nitru každého člověka. Když Rekke upozorní policii, že ve vyšetřování zdánlivě vyřešené vraždy figuruje příliš mnoho zavádějících výpovědí a pochybných důkazů, ostřílení detektivové ho neberou vážně. Policistka Micaela Vargasová jako jediná tuší, že profesor má pravdu. Rekke a Vargasová by se nemohli lišit víc. Jenom oni dva společně však můžou vnést světlo do temnoty tohoto zločinu.DVD-PREMIERY.CZ · Temnota (audiokniha) - Ukázka

How Music Works is David Byrne's bestselling, buoyant celebration of a subject he has spent a lifetime thinking about. Drawing on his own work over the years with Talking Heads, Brian Eno, and his myriad collaborators - along with journeys to Wagnerian opera houses, African villages, and anywhere music exists - Byrne shows how music emerges from cultural circumstance as much as individual creativity. It is his magnum opus, and an impassioned argument about music's liberating, life-affirming power.

In the tradition of the greatest cyberpunk novels, Blood Music explores the imminent destruction of mankind and the fear of mass destruction by technological advancements.Blood Music follows present-day events in which the fears concerning the nuclear annihilation of the world subsided after the Cold War and the fear of chemical warfare spilled over into the empty void of nuclear fear. An amazing breakthrough in genetic engineering made by Vergil Ulam is considered too dangerous for further research, but rather than destroy his work, he injects himself with his creation and walks out of his lab, unaware of just quite how his actions will change the world.Author Greg Bear's treatment of the traditional tale of scientific hubris is both suspenseful and a compelling portrait of a new intelligence emerging amongst us, irrevocably changing our world.

In little more than a century of cinema - Birth of a Nation was one hundred years old in 2015 - our sense of what a film director is, or should be, has shifted in fascinating ways. A director was once a functionary; then an important but not decisive part of an industrial process; then accepted as the person who was and should be in charge, because he was an artist and a hero. But the world has changed. In a nutshell, the change takes the form of a question: Who directed The Sopranos or Homeland? Hardly anyone knows, because we don''t tend to read TV credits and the director has returned to a more subservient and anonymous role. Directors now try to be efficient, the deliverers of profitable films, and are often involved as producers, like Steven Spielberg.David Thomson''s brilliant A Light in the Dark personalises each chapter through an individual: Jean Renoir, Howard Hawks, Jean-Luc Godard, Alfred Hitchcock, Luis Bunuel, Orson Welles, Fritz Lang, Jane Campion, Stephen Frears and Quentin Tarantino. Through these characters (and other directors not mentioned here), David Thomson relates an imaginative new history of a medium that has changed the world.

Very Short Introductions: Brilliant, Sharp, InspiringThe world teems with different kinds of music - traditional, folk, classical, jazz, rock, pop - and each type of music tends to come with its own way of thinking. Drawing on a wealth of accessible examples ranging from Beethoven to Chinese zither music, this Very Short Introduction considers the history of music and thinking about music, focussing on its social and cultural dimensions. Nicholas Cook balances the Western Classical traditions within the context of many other musical cultures in today''s world, tracing the way in which their development since the eighteenth century has conditioned present-day thinking and practice both within and beyond the West. He also considers the nature of music as a real-time performance practice; the role of music in contexts of social and political action; and the nature of musical thinking, including the roles played in it by instruments, notations, and creative imagination. In this new edition Cook explores the impact of digital technology on the production and consumption of music, including how it has transformed participatory music-making and the music business. He also discusses music''s position in a globalized world, from the role it played in historical processes of colonisation and decolonisation to its present-day significance as a vehicle of cross-cultural communication.

Four Ways of Hearing Video Game Music offers a novel account of the ways in which video games invite us to hear and listen to their music. By taking a phenomenological approach to characterize music in video games, author Michiel Kamp asks what it is we hear in the music when we play a game. Drawing on past phenomenological approaches to music as well as studies of music listening in a variety of disciplines such as aesthetics and ecological psychology, Kamp explains four main ways of hearing the same piece of music--through background, aesthetic, ludic, and semiotic hearing. As a background, music is not attended to at all, but can still be described in terms of moods, affordances, or equipment. Aesthetic hearing is a reflective attitude that invites hermeneutic interpretation; ludic hearing on the other hand invites "playing along" to the music, either through embodied movement, or in response to the music''s cinematic or theatrical connotations. Finally, in semiotic hearing, Kamp argues that we hear music as transparent symbols or signals that provide information about the state of a game. The book investigates these four categories through detailed case studies of video games from a variety of eras and genres accompanied by gameplay recordings and images on a companion website.

From Mozart to the Beatles, neuroscientist, psychologist and internationally-bestselling author Daniel Levitin reveals the role of music in human evolution, shows how our musical preferences begin to form even before we are born and explains why music can offer such an emotional experience.In This Is Your Brain On Music Levitin offers nothing less than a new way to understand music, and what it can teach us about ourselves. *****''Music seems to have an almost wilful, evasive quality, defying simple explanation, so that the more we find out, the more there is to know . . . Daniel Levitin''s book is an eloquent and poetic exploration of this paradox'' Sting''You''ll never hear music in the same way again'' Classic FM magazine''Music, Levitin argues, is not a decadent modern diversion but something of fundamental importance to the history of human development'' Literary Review

THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLERFrom the bestselling author of This Is Your Brain on Music and The Organized Mind, a surprising and inspiring exploration of the healing power of music.''Fascinating'' Observer''Fun and thoughtful'' Financial Times''Eye-opening'' Rolling StoneWe are only just beginning to appreciate the healing power of music. In recent years, a wave of scientific research has upended everything we once knew about its effects on our brains: not only in reducing stress, but also in enhancing cognitive function, slowing the spread of neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s, even strengthening our immune systems.Here, a neuroscientist and celebrated musician introduces a bold new paradigm for medical treatment, rooted in the unexpected influence of music on our minds and bodies. From explaining how ‘rhythmic auditory stimulation’ can fight multiple sclerosis, to examining why Tracy Chapman’s songs might just help cure PTSD, Professor Daniel Levitin offers surprising insights into the new science of music as medicine.Along the way, he explores how each of us can use music to calm our thoughts, repair our memories and heal our deepest psychological wounds. The result is both a surprising tour through the science of music, and a joyful celebration of humanity’s oldest obsession._''For many years I have wondered why a bunch of frequencies organised into a piece of music has the ability, even without words, to make the listener cry and become emotional. Although I know this happens to me and many people, I have often wondered how this can be. Dr Levitin, in this latest book, Music as Medicine, has some fascinating insights into this great phenomenon.'' Paul McCartney''It''s impossible to read this book without thinking of the music that has meant a lot to you in your own life.''

Music is shaped by the science of sound. How can music - an artform - have anything to do with science? Yet there are myriad ways in which the two are intertwined, from the basics of music theory and the design of instruments to hi-fi systems and how the brain processes music.Science writer Andrew May traces the surprising connections between science and music, from the theory of sound waves to the way musicians use mathematical algorithms to create music.The most obvious impact of science on music can be seen in the way electronic technology has revolutionised how we create, record and listen to music. Technology has also provided new insights into the effects that different music has on the brain, to the extent that some algorithms can now predict our reactions with uncanny accuracy, which raises a worrying question: how long will it be before AI can create music on a par with humans?

Music Saved Them, They Say: Social Impacts of Music-Making and Learning in Kinshasa (DR Congo) explores the role music-making has played in community projects run for young people in the poverty-stricken and often violent surroundings of Kinshasa, the capital city of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The musicians described here – former gang members and so-called "witch children" living on the streets – believe music was vital in (re)constructing their lives. Based on fieldwork carried out over the course of three-and-a-half years of research, the study synthesizes interviews, focus group sessions, and participant observation to contextualize this complicated cultural and social environment. Inspired by those who have been "saved by music", Music Saved Them, They Say seeks to understand how structured musical practice and education can influence the lives of young people in such difficult living conditions, in Kinshasa and beyond."... a tribute to the persistence, engagement and courage of the people in these projects, who can be proud that their work is now exposed to a global audience, not just of researchers but also to practitioners around the world who could learn from and be inspired by these hitherto unknown projects."—John Sloboda, Research Professor, Guildhall School of Music & Drama"This book is very moving but never sentimental, one of the best accounts of music''s real transformative capacities that I have come across."—Lucy Green, Emerita Professor of Music Education, University College London Institute of Education

Music in Pacific Island Cultures is one of several case-study volumes that can be used along with Thinking Musically, Second Edition, the core book in the Global Music Series. Thinking Musically incorporates music from many diverse cultures and establishes the framework for exploring the practice of music around the world. It sets the stage for an array of case-study volumes, each of which focuses on a single area of the world. Each case study uses the contemporary musical situation as a point of departure, covering historical information and traditions as they relate to the present.The islands of Melanesia, Micronesia, and Polynesia are steeped in diverse musical traditions that reach far beyond the expanse of the Pacific Ocean. Music in Pacific Island Cultures is the first brief, single-volume text to provide a thematic, succinct introduction to the music of the Pacific Islands--a region of the world that has long been under-represented in ethnomusicological studies.Based on the authors'' extensive fieldwork and experiences in Pacific Island cultures, the text draws on interviews with performers, eyewitness accounts of performances, vivid illustrations, and insights gained from ongoing participation in Pacific music. The authors use four themes--colonialism, belief systems, musical flows, and the re/presentation of Pacific cultures--to survey the region and draw parallels and contrasts between its various musical traditions.Packaged with a 70-minute audio CD containing musical examples discussed in the book, Music in Pacific Island Cultures features numerous listening activities that engage students with the music.

Audiokniha od autorky: Lois Lowryová, čte: David Novotný. Délka nahrávky: 5 hodin, 47 minut. Dokonalý svět bez bolesti. Ale i bez lásky. Jonas pozná pravdu a už se nemůže vrátit. Provokativní příběh o chlapci, který zažívá něco neuvěřitelného a podniká něco nemožného.Představte si, že svět kolem vás je jako podle šablony, existuje jen jedna univerzální barva, jeden typ nábytku, všichni mají stejný střih vlasů, stejné oblečení. Má to své výhody, nikomu nemáte co závidět. Ale...Ve věku dvanácti let je Jonas, mladý chlapec ze zdánlivě utopického, futuristického světa, v němž neexistují války, zločiny, strach ani bolest, vybrán, aby se stal uctívaným strážcem vzpomínek. Podrobuje se výcviku, při němž mu dosavadní příjemce paměti předává to, co nikdo jiný nesmí vědět ani cítit – vzpomínky a zkušenosti předchozích generací, dozvídá se o bolesti a utrpení, ale i o kráse, lásce a přátelství a začíná chápat, že jeho společenství žije v dostatku a bezpečí za cenu totální absence citů a možnosti volby. A s tímhle vědomím, s poznáním těchto hodnot už nedokáže žít jako dřív.

Ed Le Brocq invites you to come on a journey with him through a living tradition that spans a millennium - the tradition of Western classical music. Have you ever wondered where our music comes from? How did we arrive here, a place where we can have a hundred musicians on stage executing the wildest rhythms, a singer performing the most heartbreaking of melodies, or a solitary pianist playing an instrument that weighs half a tonne? How did the melodies and harmonies we listen to today, right now, come about? Ed Le Brocq invites you on a journey through a living tradition that spans millennia: the tradition of Western classical music. With Ed, you will roam its magnificently bendy path, from the Mesopotamians to the mediaeval age to music composed just last week by Australia's most creative minds. You will discover how notes from the Indus Valley influenced the development of scales by Pythagoras and his mates in Ancient Greece, finding their way through the Romans into church music of the Middle Ages, and why some of those notes were banned. You'll find out how the invention of clocks changed rhythm, how pianos changed society, which composer was afraid of the number thirteen (and why we should be a little afraid of their music) and which composer had two skulls in their grave. This canter through the development of one of humankind's greatest achievements will delight and exhilarate you and have you listening to music with fresh ears.

For more than thirty years Francesco Lotoro, an Italian pianist and composer has been on an odyssey to recover music written by the inmates of Adolf Hitler''s concentration camps and the gulags of Stalin''s Soviet Union. Between 1933, the year of the opening of the Dachau Lager in Germany, to Stalin''s death in 1953 when thousands of Soviet prisoners were released, Lotoro pieces together the human stories of survivors whose only salvation was their love of music.Across three decades of relentless investigation, his findings as captured in Lost Music of the Holocaust are extraordinary and historically important. Lotoro unearthed over eight thousand unpublished works of music, ten thousand documents (microfilms, diaries, notebooks, and recordings on phonographic recordings), as well as locating and interviewing many survivors who in a previous life had been trained musicians and composers. Be it a symphony, an opera, a simple folk song or even a gypsy melody, Lotor has travelled the globe to track them down. Many pieces were hastily scribbled down ow whatever the composer could find: food wrappings, a vegetable sack and even a train ticket stub. To avoid discover by camp guards, Lotoro even discovered forgotten pieces of code inmates had invented to hide their real meaning - music. In many cases, the composers would be murdered in the gas chambers or worked to death, not knowing whether their music would be heard by the world. Until now.Their stories and their music adds colour and humanity to the horrors of the Holocaust and of Stalin''s oppressive rule. It is a journey into music and history that reveals a new way of telling the darkest chapters of the twentieth century whilst shining a light on the beauty that could still be created amidst the horrors endured.

A passionate and illuminating memoir by the celebrated Music Director of the Royal Opera House.''Mesmerising.'' DANIEL BARENBOIM Sir Antonio Pappano is one of the best known and most celebrated conductors alive today. His deeply held belief in the power of music to inspire and enlighten is the motivation behind this long anticipated memoir.In 1969, decades before he was chosen to conduct the music at the Coronation of King Charles, Sir Antonio Pappano was a ten-year-old boy accompanying his father’s singing lessons. My Life in Music tells the moving tale of a legendary conductor who, nurtured in childhood by his parents and their dedicated work ethic, goes on to conduct at many of the most influential opera houses of Europe and North America. Pappano skilfully evokes an extensive selection from his wide-ranging repertoire – operas and orchestral works spanning from Mozart to Birtwistle and Mark Anthony Turnage, as well as art song and chamber music works in which he has performed as a pianist – and makes a compelling case for the potential classical music has to captivate new and wider audiences.

It is an iconographic journey made up of visual evocations, comparisons and contrasts, testimonies, and anecdotes. The starting point is 1969, the year of Woodstock, David Bowie’s “Space Oddity,” and the first man on the moon. It passes through the stages, concerts, and moments that made the history not only of music, but also of fashion.The view that tells, approaches, and explores famous figures—paying particular attention to the Thin White Duke—eras, and fashion is that of Frida Giannini, an expert in both worlds, who has made fashion her profession and music her great passion. Music also accompanied her professionally in her creative inspirations and references, and in first-person encounters with the protagonists of the entertainment world in the 2000s.This book also shines a spotlight on stage clothes, hairstyles, and sets, because the evolution of music accompanies the evolution of fashions, costumes, and changing society and vice versa, in a dialogue of influences, decades, and historical events.

Al-Ghazali on Proper Conduct when Listening to Music and the Experience of Ecstasy is the eighteen chapter of the Revival of the Religious Sciences (Ihya'' ''ulum al-din), a monumental work of classical Islam written by the renowned theologian-mystic Abu Hamid al-Ghazali (d. 1111). This chapter of the Revival deals with the controversial topic of music. In the Islamic legal tradition, there is disagreement as to whether or not performing and listening to music is lawful, even more, whether music might be used as a path to ecstasy. Basing himself on the Qur’an, hadith, the first generations of Muslims and the mystical tradition, Ghazali presents the arguments both for and against listening to music. Ghazali''s own position is that music in itself is permissible, though under certain circumstances it can be unlawful or undesirable. Ghazali gives lyrical expression to his love of poetry and music, and their legitimate place not only in human celebrations, but in divine worship and as aids on the path to gnosis and ecstasy. All such responses he sees exemplified in the life of the Prophet with his family. Â

Mathematical Music offers a concise and easily accessible history of how mathematics was used to create music. The story presented in this short, engaging volume ranges from ratios in antiquity to random combinations in the 17th century, 20th-century statistics, and contemporary artificial intelligence. This book provides a fascinating panorama of the gradual mechanization of thought processes involved in the creation of music. How did Baroque authors envision a composition system based on combinatorics? What was it like to create musical algorithms at the beginning of the 20th century, before the computer became a reality? And how does this all explain today’s use of artificial intelligence and machine learning in music? In addition to discussing the history and the present state of mathematical music, Braguinski also takes a look at what possibilities the near future of music AI might hold for listeners, musicians, and the society.Grounded in research findings from musicology and the history of technology, and written for the non-specialist general audience, this book helps both student and professional readers to make sense of today’s music AI by situating it in a continuous historical context.
