As others have said, on the noisy side - MOFI are getting worse in this area. Great sound quality and packaging, let down by too many ticks and pops. The sound is wide open, the instruments are clear and sharp. I haven't listened to any other pressings to compare but this album really comes to life, so I'd definitely recommend it Billy Joel: v. 1 and 2: Greatest Hits a good investment. You can tell the mid 80's tunes are more bright and digital sounding that the original stuff he put out in the 70's and earliest 80's, but still a great collection and worth getting! GoByMike 20 de junio de Denunciar. A bit lacking in low end and overall very bright. There was a fair amount of surface noise, especially for brand new vinyl of this caliber and price range.

These pieces are driven by the psychology of the men and woman roaming these pages, seeking to provide insight into the unique weight of their personal wreckage. From a woman craving motherhood who combs through forests searching for the unclaimed body of a runaway to a spitfire retiree’s struggle to accept her husband’s failing health, the individuals in these narratives are all navigating transitional spaces in their lives, often unwillingly. Along the way, they must balance the pressures of familial roles, romantic relationships, and personal histories while attempting to reshape their understanding of self. These stories explore the shifting landscape of identity, belonging, and the sometimes conflicting responsibilities we hold to others and to ourselves. v vi Dedication This manuscript is dedicated to my parents, who read me so many stories. vii viii

  • Covering Joel with Perfect Pitch
    Covering Joel with perfect pitch SUSAN DEEFHOLTS (Mar 23, 2007) One of the remarkable things about Billy Joel's music is that his writing has evolved with the times, while still retaining a sound that makes it distinctly his own. His work is uniquely contemporary, capturing a wide diversity of moods, from wry humour and sophisticated contemplation, through psychological angst and frenetic stress. An Innocent Man: The Music of Billy Joel marks the most recent in the Electric Thursdays series of concerts, a collaboration between the KWS and the Jeans 'n Classics band. Who better to lead us on this tribute to Joel's musical career than Jim Witter, himself an accomplished singer, pianist and songwriter? Witter is the creator of the hit show The Piano Men, a tribute to the 1970's hits of both Billy Joel and Elton John. His vibrant performance on Wednesday night potently demonstrated his strong affinity for Joel's work. At times, he sounded uncannily like the Piano Man himself, evoking both his timbre and enunciation. And yet, Witter also brought a presence that was uniquely his own to the performance. The evening began with such favourites as Only the Good Die Young and Uptown Girl --both songs about love between the kind of boy your mother warned you about and the girl who's got it all. The upbeat opening set the mood for a stellar performance of Joel classics. From the very first notes played, the audience sat up and took notice. Peter Brennan's orchestral arrangements, with Daniel Warren conducting, complemented the original songs, adding depth and resonance to the diverse range of songs covered throughout the evening.

    Estonian Academy of Music and Theatre Sasha Mäkilä Conducting Madetoja Discoveries About the Art and Profession of Conducting A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Music) Supervisor: Prof. Mart Humal Tallinn 2018 ABSTRACT Conducting Madetoja. Discoveries About the Art and Profession of Conducting For the material of my doctoral project, I have chosen the three symphonies of the Finnish composer Leevi Madetoja (1887–1947), all of which I have performed in my doctoral concerts during years 2012–2017. In my doctoral thesis, I concentrate on his first symphony, Op. 29, but to fully understand the context it would be beneficial to familiarize oneself with my doctoral concerts on the accompanying DVDs, as well as with the available commercial and archival recordings of Madetoja’s three symphonies. The aim of this thesis is to understand the effect of scholarly activity (in this case working with manuscripts and recordings) on the artistic and practical aspects of a conductor’s work; this is not a study on the music of Madetoja per se, but I am using these hitherto unknown symphonies as a case study for my research inquiries. My main research inquiry could be formulated as: What kind of added value the study of composer’s manuscripts and other contemporary sources, the analysis of the existing recordings of the work by other performers, and the experience gained during repeated performances of the work, bring to performing (conducting) the work, as opposed to working straightforwardly using only the readily available published edition(s)? My methods are the analysis of musical scores, manuscripts and recordings, critical reflection on my own artistic practices, and two semi-structured interviews with conductor colleagues.

  • The Capsule Alana Foster There Were No Windows in His Cell. Not One
    The Capsule Alana Foster There were no windows in his cell. Not one window. He just once, wanted to look outside and see the stars and planets in the wide, open galaxy. He just wanted to see the outside world, the beautiful planets that shined in the sky. He spent all of his time waiting and waiting with nothing to look out at. No star to watch. He felt so trapped, so alone; he hadn’t seen the outside world for the longest time. He desperately wanted a glimpse of something, anything that wasn’t the walls of his cell. Three months ago, Nikolai Bukharin was taken from his home, and arrested. He was never told the reasons of his arrest, just that he had committed terrible crimes. It happened in the early spring, in the middle of the afternoon. Two men barged into his house, and arrested him. He never even had a chance to say goodbye to his wife. The last thing he remembered was feeling of someone’s hand to the back of his head. When he finally woke up in his cell, a different man stood beside him. The man was short, with a somewhat round figure, and the top of his head had about three hairs remaining. The man smiled and assured him not to worry, he told Bukharin, “You shall only be kept here for a few days.” A few days came and went, then a few weeks. Bukharin once tried to ask a guard if he knew the reason for his imprisonment. The guard blankly stared at him straight in the eyes, and without giving him an answer; he shut the door in Bukharin’s face.

  • Dance Hype in Video—A Positive Or Negative Force?
    Curriculum Units by Fellows of the Yale-New Haven Teachers Institute 1984 Volume V: American Adolescents in the Public Eye Dance Hype in Video—A Positive or Negative Force? Curriculum Unit 84.05.02 by Jan Johnson Teachers Who Use This Unit Should be Sensitive to the Strict Rules Governing the Copyright Protection of Songs, Lyrics and Music. This unit is designed to explore the fascinating world of M.T.V. Violent, sexual, confusing video messages bombard the tuned in senses 24 hours a day. How are these suggestive verbal, musical and visual communications effecting the fluctuating emotional rhythms of our youth? It will take years of research to begin to find an answer. Video is a whole new concept of advertising. Hidden Persuaders by Vance Packard and Subliminal Seduction by Wilson Bryan Key have clued us in to many of the manipulative techniques advertisers have used for years. M.T.V. has left out none in their constant hype to sell new and presently popular rock and roll recordings. “Inside M.T.V.”, an article in Rolling Stone magazine (12/8/83), tells us in great detail what is going on in this fairly new media: The hypnotic quality of regular T.V. programming is multiplied through the carefully planned out structure. Free of any opposing views, M.T.V. directs its propaganda to a generation that was brought up on T.V. and rock and roll. The senses are constantly charged with visual expressions of fantasy and reality that are indistinguishable from each other. Videos and pop music are phenomena that relate extremely well to academic subjects.
