Author: Christoph Wolff | Narrator: John Pruden
Finalist for the 2001 Pulitzer Prize in Biography, this landmark book was revised in 2013 to include new knowledge discovered after its initial publication.
Although we have heard the music of J. S. Bach in countless performances and recordings, the composer himself still comes across only as an enigmatic figure in a single familiar portrait. As we mark the 250th anniversary of Bach’s death, author Christoph Wolff presents a new picture that brings to life this towering figure of the Baroque era. This engaging new biography portrays Bach as the living, breathing, and sometimes imperfect human being that he was, while bringing to bear all the advances of the last half-century of Bach scholarship.

A Musician and Teacher in Nineteenth Century New England Irving Emerson, 1843―1903


Free Download Terese Tuohey, "A Musician and Teacher in Nineteenth Century New England: Irving Emerson, 1843―1903"
English | ISBN: 1498500404 | 2015 | 152 pages | EPUB | 2 MB
There is a need for historical studies in music education that focuses on the common person. Historians in general have been doing this for years, but music education history has yet to catch up to the field. Although there have been many biographies and biographical studies about the more well-known music educators, little has been done investigating what teaching was like for the average teacher, and even less is known about teaching music in the early years of music education in the United States. A Musician and Teacher in Nineteenth Century New England: Irving Emerson, 1843-1903 argues that understanding history requires knowledge of the people who lived during the time. This bookfocuses on what Irving Emerson’s life was like as a musician and music teacher during this early and critical period of music education.

J. Anthony Allen | Duration: 2:40 h | Video: H264 1920×1080 | Audio: AAC 44,1 kHz 2ch | 943 MB | Language: English
This class is all about how bands (and any musical collaborators) work together.
We will start with traditional record label deals, and progress forward to talking about more modern deals. We will talk a lot about the "need" for a record deal in the modern age, and how you can get by without one at all. I’ll walk you through every issue in the contract so you fully understand what is being asked.
This series is pulled directly from the courses I’ve created for my university position in Music Business. All of these courses are designed for the everyday musician – amateur or professional – who has little or no knowledge on the topic, but wants to master it.
