This guide introduces concertgoers, serious listeners, and music students to Gustav Mahler''s Second Symphony, one of the composer''s most popular and most powerful works. It examines the symphony from several perspectives: Mahler''s struggle to create what he called the New Symphony; his innovative approaches to traditional musical form; how he addressed the daunting challenges of writing music on a monumental scale; and how he dealt with the ineluctable force of Beethoven''s symphonic precedent, especially that of the Ninth Symphony.The central focus of Inside Mahler''s Second Symphony is on the music itself: how it works, how it works its magic on the listener, how it translates the earnest existential concerns that motivate the symphony into powerful and highly expressive music. Beyond this, the book ushers the Listener''s Guide into the digital age with 185 dedicated audio examples. They are brief, accessible, and arranged to flow from one to another to simulate how the symphony might be presented in a classroom discussion. Each movement is also presented uninterrupted, accompanied by light annotations to remind the reader of what they learned about the movement. Each musical event in the uninterrupted presentation is keyed to its location in the orchestral score to accommodate readers ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Gustav Mahler: Letters to his Wife is undoubtedly the best way to understand Mahler as a man and as a composer: in his own words, intimately detailing his inner world to his wife, Alma. ''Are Collected Letters a superior form of biography? When as numerous and meticulously edited as these of Gustav Mahler, when they provide a time capsule ride back to the last days of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the answer must be yes . . . This remarkable book is unputdownable, even for a non-Mahlerite.'' Literary Review ''The letters are linked by a commentary that makes the volume both an easy and gripping read . . . There is passion in this book to scald the hand.'' Sunday Times''A vivid and telling portrayal of Mahler''s personality in his voice.'' Times Literary Supplement

A century after his death, Gustav Mahler is the most important composer of modern times. Displacing Beethoven as a box-office draw, heard in Hollywood films and on state occasions, his music inspires particular devotion. Some believe it helps heal emotional wounds, others find intellectual fascination in its contradictory meanings, and many feel that the music captures the yearnings and anxieties of our post-industrial society. In this highly original account of the composer''s life and work, Norman Lebrecht explores the Mahler Effect, asking why Mahler''s music has become the soundtrack to our twenty-first-century lives.

This is a very unusual book. It brings to the English speaking reader a masterpiece written some 50 years ago by one of the greatest minds of the 20th century--Nicholai Aleksandrovich Bernstein--considered the founder of many contemporary fields of science such as biomechanics, motor control, and physiology of activity. Divided into two parts, this volume''s first section is a translation of the Russian book On Dexterity and Its Development. It presents, in a very reader-friendly style, Bernstein''s major ideas related to the development and control of voluntary movements in general, and to the notion of dexterity, in particular. Although very few scientific works remain interesting to the reader 50 years after they were written, this volume--now available for the first time in English--is a rare exception to this rule. His ideas are certainly not obsolete. Actually, we are just starting to grasp the depth and breadth of his thinking, especially his analysis of the complex notion of dexterity. The second section provides both a historical and a contemporary perspective on Bernstein''s ideas. The original work was directed at a wide audience ranging from specialists in biomechanics and motor behavior, to coaches, neurologists, physical therapists, athletes, and even inquisitive college and ...

It began with a break-in at the Democratic National Committee headquarters in Washington DC, on 17 June 1972. Bob Woodward, a journalist for the Washington Post, was called into the office on a Saturday morning to cover the story. Carl Bernstein, a political reporter on the Post, was also assigned. They soon learned this was no ordinary burglary. Following lead after lead, Woodward and Bernstein picked up a trail of money, conspiracy and high-level pressure that ultimately led to the doors of the Oval Office. Men very close to the President were implicated, and then Richard Nixon himself. Over a period of months, Woodward met secretly with Deep Throat, for decades the most famous anonymous source in the history of journalism. As he and Bernstein pieced the jigsaw together, they produced a series of explosive stories that would not only win the Post a Pulitzer Prize, they would bring about the President's scandalous downfall. ALL THE PRESIDENT'S MEN documents this amazing story. Taut, gripping and fascinating, it is a classic of its kind -- the true story of the events that changed the American presidency.

Audiokniha: Životopis Mozarta s názvem Amadeus nyní v audioknižní verzi Život Wofganga Amadea Mozarta, vyprávěný ve fiktivním deníku jeho největší přítelkyní Josefínou Duškovou, slavnou zpěvačkou, s níž Mozart trávil dny od dětství až do smrti ve Vídni i v Praze. Její obydlí na Bertramce bylo pro Wolfganga útočištěm, kam rád jezdil. Autor knihy Zdeněk Mahler už využil své znalosti Mozartovy osobnosti při psaní scénáře k filmu Miloše Formana Amadeus. Nyní Mahler zvolil formu deníku s osobními postřehy autorky, která sledovanou osobnost důvěrně zná a odhaluje nejrůznější kuriozní situace z Mozartova života. Slavný skladatel se zde objevuje v roli člověka, jenž od raného dětství projevoval zcela samozřejmě svou hudební genialitu. Zároveň má zvláštní oblibu v kuriozitách, komplikovaných šifrovaných záznamech, různých hříčkách a netradičních hrách. Deník čte se zalíbením a vtipným důrazem na zvláštnosti hudebního skladatele Ilona Svobodová. Pasáže, kterými autor komentuje dění s vysvětlujícími dodatky, pak vypráví s účastí Václav Jílek. Audioknihu doprovází Mozartova hudba z archivu Supraphonu.

Gustav Mahler je hudební skladatel, který stojí na důležitém předělu mezi tradiční a novou hudbou, konkrétně mezi tonální a atonální kompoziční technikou. Přišel s mnoha novinkami, zůstával však ještě spjat s minulostí - jeho ideálem byl Richard Wagner. Díky původu v inspirativním prostředí jedné z rakouských provincií, kde se mísily vlivy české, židovské a německé kultury, získal Mahler dar neobyčejné citlivosti, která mu umožňovala tušit budoucí zlomy a hrozby a ty intuitivně vkládat do svých děl. To bylo důvodem, proč mu často současníci nerozuměli a proč on sám věděl, že jeho hudba bude pochopena až za padesát let, jak jednou poznamenal. Oblouk, který takto sevřel komplikovaný vývoj nové doby od Gustava Mahlera až po dobu dnešní je v mnoha ohledech plný zajímavých problémů, které se bezprostředně týkají i nás. To poskytuje příležitost podívat se na Mahlerovu tvorbu v širším měřítku, a to s ohledy filosofickými, kulturními a duchovními spíše než úzce muzikologickými. Nabízejí se zde ke konfrontaci otázky po povaze přírody a po našem přístupu k ní v současné technické epoše, po možnostech užívání jazyka k jejímu popisu, po zbožnosti v době vyprázdněných náboženství, po společenských či politických důsledcích lidského jednání, po reakcích na zrod a zánik moderny, po požadavcích ...

A twist on the classic tale of Alice in Wonderland told through Nicolas Mahler's distinctive graphic novel style. Alice is back in Wonderland. Here she meets the White Rabbit, who leads her down into his rabbit hole in search of an illustrated edition of H. C. Artmann's Frankenstein in Sussex. Over the course of the novel, Alice repeatedly runs into the Rabbit, who quotes freely from other literary works by the likes of Herman Melville and E. M. Cioran. Unlike in Lewis Carroll's classic, Alice is not traveling the Wonderland we know. Rather, in Nicolas Mahler's whimsical graphic novel retelling, she is in a house deep beneath the ground. On subsequent floors, she encounters the famous creations of Lewis Carroll: the Hookah-Smoking Caterpillar, the Cheshire Cat, the Mock Turtle, and many others. One after the other, these creatures address the terrors of childhood and youth. It is only when Alice reaches the ground floor of the house that we arrive at the inevitable climax: face to face with Frankenstein's Monster.

Seven Pillars of Wisdom is the autobiographical account of T.E.

Seven Pillars of Wisdom recreates epic events with extraordinary vividness. In the words of E. M.

Proto je překvapivé, že nyní vydává teprve druhé sólové album!

Nahrávka alba Dasha Symphony vychází ideově z již existujícího koncertního programu a původně se mělo jednat o živý záznam koncertu Dashy s Filharmonií Hradec Králové, ale s ohledem na letošní jarní karanténu a nemožnost koncerty uskutečnit před diváky vzniklo nakonec nové album studiově. Nahrávání hudebních základů proběhlo v sále filharmonie a následně Dasha společně se svým hudebním souputníkem a velkým kamarádem Davidem Solařem natočila všechny vokály v intimním domáckém prostředí studia SO-LA-RO na Vyžlovce.

We Were Really There is the story of how Manchester City was saved from oblivion - told by the man who oversaw the rescue operation. Twenty-five years before City''s historic Treble, they were a national joke, relegated to English football''s third division. The only trophies the Citizens were likely to win, said chairman Francis Lee, were ''cups for cock-ups''. Enter David Bernstein. When he succeeded Lee as chairman in March 1998, City had just been relegated from the Premier League and were about to be relegated again. During their season in the third tier, City fans sang choruses of ''We''re not really here!'' in mocking disbelief at how far their club had fallen. Without Bernstein''s work in five critical years as chairman, it is impossible to see how City would have been an attractive proposition to the investors from Abu Dhabi, whose takeover in 2008 paved the way for the Pep Guardiola era and unprecedented success. This is the tale of the rebirth of a football club, told from the inside.

A migraine isn''t just a headache, it is a neurological disease. Affecting one in five women, one in twenty men, and one in twenty children, it''s a debilitating, complex, and chronic condition that manifests in a combination of symptoms that can include excruciating head pain as well as other distinctive physical and emotional effects. Yet it is also a disease that you can improve and manage, as Dr. Carolyn Bernstein has discovered in her 17 years as a practicing neurologist.Dr. Bernstein explains why migraines happen, why they are misdiagnosed, and why so few people get the right treatment for them. She reveals the latest research that shows that Migraine Brains share a hypersensitivity to stimuli and are more likely to experience a cascade of neurological reactions that cause common migraine symptoms. This breakthrough medical knowledge makes treatment and recovery possible with new migraine-specific drugs as well as with complementary treatments such as yoga, biofeedback and exercise.The Migraine Brain will equip you with the information you need to understand migraines and to help your family and colleagues understand that a migraine isn''t just a headache: it''s a serious, yet treatable, condition.

Argues that regulation of the substance that creates life and spreads harm is crucial in a post-Roe AmericaControls on sexual reproduction are so familiar. Check out any authority over human lives – religious, medical, sociopolitical, familial, psychological – and you'll find teachings about what people must, shouldn't, may, and may not do with their reproductive organs. In this landscape of control, one active participant has been escaping its share of deserved attention. Semen is the quintessential hazardous substance, a fluid that delivers unique benefit along with unique risk, but until now nobody has set out to control it. In Making the Best of Semen Anita Bernstein sets out to manage a significant fluid that calls for much more attention that it receives. The benefits and harms that semen delivers when it travels onto mucosa are not only extraordinary: they also lie within the reach of regulation. Bernstein lays out the problem of unmentionability that shields semen from controls and documents the upheavals for which this substance is responsible. As the first book to broach regulation of semen, Making the Best of Semen focuses on the rendering of good things that semen regulation could furnish.

Thomas Edward Lawrence first set foot on the hot sands of Arabia in 1909. By 1918 there was a £20,000 price on his head. His journey to this point has long been legend.From his first postings as archaeologist, liaison and map officer, to fighting alongside guerrilla forces during the Arab Revolt. Journeying more than 300 miles through blistering heat to capture Aqaba, to his involvement in peace conferences that decided the future of the Middle East. Lawrence gave over his life the Middle East and its people.A legend in his own lifetime, Lawrence's epic story has always been ripe for the retelling - but Ranulph Fiennes is no ordinary biographer . . .Having led Arab troops into battle on the Arabian peninsula in a war fought only fifty years later. Fiennes too discovered the wonders of these far-flung lands and the people who live there, and is one of very few who can claim a true insight into the kind of life that Lawrence lived - bold and adventurous to the end. With detailed access to records and an in-depth knowledge, Lawrence of Arabia is at long last a true and full account of this mysterious adventurer who captivated the ...

With its frank portrayal of human passion and sexual desire, D.H. Lawrence''s The Rainbow was banned as ''obscene'' in Britain shortly after first publication. Set in the rural Midlands, The Rainbow chronicles the lives of three generations of the Brangwen family over a period of more than 60 years, setting them against the emergence of modern England. When Tom Brangwen marries a Polish widow, Lydia Lensky, and adopts her daughter Anna as his own, he is unprepared for the conflict and passion that erupts between them. All are seeking individual fulfilment, but it is Ursula, Anne''s spirited daughter, who in her search for self-knowedge, becomes the focus of Lawrence''s examination of relationships and the conflicts they bring, and the inextricable mingling of the physical and the spiritual. Suffused with Biblical imagery, The Rainbow addresses searching human issues in a setting of precise and vivid detail.In his introduction James Wood discusses Lawrence''s writing style and the tensions and themes of The Rainbow. This Penguin edition reproduces the Cambridge text, which provides a text as close as possible to Lawrence''s original. It also includes suggested further reading, a fragment of ''The Sisters II'' from his first draft, and chronologies of Lawrence''s life ... Unknown localization key: "more"

T. E. Lawrence was one of the most charismatic characters of the First World War; a young archaeologist who fought with the Arabs and wrote an epic and very personal account of their revolt against the Turks in Seven Pillars of Wisdom. Yet this was not the first book to carry that iconic title. In 1914 the man who would become Lawrence of Arabia burnt the first Seven Pillars of Wisdom, a manuscript in which he described his adventures in the Middle East during the five years before the war. Anthony Sattin uncovers the story Lawrence wanted to conceal: the truth of his birth, his tortuous relationship with a dominant mother, his deep affection for an Arab boy, the intimate details of the extraordinary journeys he took through the region with which his name is forever connected and the personal reasons that drove him from being a student to becoming an archaeologist and a spy.Young Lawrence is the first book to focus on the story of T. E. Lawrence in his twenties, before the war, during the period he looked back on as his golden years. Using first-hand sources, museum records and Foreign Office documents, Sattin sets these adventures against ... Unknown localization key: "more"

A twentieth century icon, Lawrence of Arabia, as Thomas Edward Lawrence is more commonly known, spent thirteen out of his forty-six years in the region from which he drew his name. This was as a scholar researching his university thesis, a spy surveying Sinai for the British Army before the First World War, an intelligence officer in Cairo, a liaison officer to the Arabs, and as a diplomat who galvanised and united the Arab tribes into an effective fighting force. He became an explosives expert and a guerrilla fighter who influenced Arab leaders in defeating their Ottoman occupiers. The story of his achievements in Arabia, derailing Turkish trains and attacking enemy strongholds, has become the stuff of legend. But his life after the disappointment of witnessing the Arabs being denied independence at the end of the First World War is as intriguing as his more famous escapades in the desert. Uncomfortable with the fame and celebrity status that Lowell Thomas’s lectures brought upon him, after a brief tenure as a civil servant working for Winston Churchill in an attempt to address the failure of achieving Arab independence at the Cairo Conference, Lawrence, the former Lieutenant-Colonel, remarkably sought a life in ...

Despite the ‘materialist turn’ in modernist studies, the extent and depth of D. H. Lawrence’s engagement with the literary marketplace has not been considered. The labelling of him as a working class ‘genius’ has concealed the question of how he became a published writer. Analysing the literary marketplace of the ‘long’ Edwardian period, this book assesses the circumstances for becoming an author at this time, examining Lawrence’s changing conceptions of what kind of writer he wanted to be and who he wanted to write for. It reconsiders the significance of Lawrence’s literary mentors Ford Madox Hueffer and Edward Garnett and recovers several figures (including Violet Hunt and Ezra Pound) whose significance for Lawrence’s career has been underestimated. The book evaluates how Lawrence’s work was marketed and received by the reading public in Britain and America, examining publishing houses (including Heinemann, Duckworth, T. Fisher Unwin and Mitchell Kennerley) and literary journals and magazines (such as the New Age, the English Review, Madame and Forum).

Další díly ve Francii vyšly na počátku 80. let a potvrdily mimořádný význam publikace pro mahlerovská studia, poslední, čtvrtý díl, pak autor vydal anglicky v roce 2008. Mahlerem a jeho dílem se de La Grange se zabýval systematicky po celý život a významnou měrou tak přispěl k rozšíření obecného povědomí o tomto skladateli v západní Evropě. Organizoval a vedl několik mahlerovských festivalů, výstav či sympozií a díky přátelství se skladatelovým žákem, dirigentem Brunem Walterem, vdovou po Mahlerovi Almou Mahlerovou a jeho dcerou Annou a také neúnavnému studiu shromáždil o nesmírné...

Hudební CD - Gustav Mahler (1860-1911) - Píseň o zemi (Das Lied von der Erde) v úpravě pro komorní soubor (Arnold Schoenberg, Rainer Riehn) Dagmar Pecková - mezzosoprán, Richard Samek - tenor, Schoenberg Chamber Orchestra, dirigent Petr Altrichter. V kontrastu k Osmé „symfonii tisíců” hovoří další Mahlerovo vokálně-symfonické dílo nečekaně intimním jazykem plným něhy a hlubokého smutku, zrcadlícím samu esenci Mahlerovy duše na sklonku jeho života. Onen smutek, odrážející mj. těžké události ve skladatelově životě a procházející v různých odstínech všemi šesti písněmi, jako by se v konci díla rozplýval ve smířeně opakovaném slově „věčně”, otevírajícím nekonečný prostor po tomto životě. Jméno mezzosopranistky Dagmar Peckové je již od samého počátku její mezinárodní dráhy organicky spjato s Mahlerovým dílem, jak mj. dokládají vysoce ceněné nahrávky s Jiřím Bělohlávkem a jeho PKF.

Audiokniha: Pro někoho zůstal Antonín Dvořák možná jen zaprášenou látkou z hodin hudební výchovy. Jeho život rozhodně však nebyl usedlý ani fádní a představa nenápadného pána komponujícího v tichu pracovny své nesmrtelné skladby je spíše úsměvná. Píše se rok 1892. Už jen samotná cesta do Ameriky byla v té době dobrodružstvím a Dvořákův tamní pobyt a zrod jeho nejvýznamnějších skladeb zasluhuje naši pozornost. Novosvětskou symfonii zná každý, ale kdo ví, jak málo chybělo, aby se český muzikant Antonín Dvořák stal autorem hymny Spojených států amerických… Na nahrávce z roku 1989 vypráví spisovatel Zdeněk Mahler nejen o Antonínu Dvořákovi v Americe, ale také o Novosvětské symfonii, o Jeanette Thurberové, o krajanech ve Spillvillu, o závisti a malosti, o velkorysosti a porozumění, o smutných loučeních a slavných návratech. Vychází u příležitosti 85. narozenin autora.

Když Jiří žabí stehýnko ochutnal, vypadalo to, jako by se mu zvedl žaludek, statečně se však do nich pustil a přikusoval k tomu bagetu. "Je to dobré?" Zajímal se Honza škodolibě. Jiří těžko hledal slova: "Jako kuře krmené rybí moučkou. Chceš ochutnat?" "Ani ne," pravil odtažitě Honza a znechuceně se zašklebil. Zdeněk si dal, a aby Jiřího povzbudil řekl: "Docela dobré." "Tak si přidej," vybízel ho Jiří. "Přeci ti to nesním," prohlásil Zdeněk pokrytecky. Marek Mahler se narodil 3. března 1966 v Praze. Vystudoval ČVUT, a potom pracoval jako programátor v bance.
