But from the start, Jones’s MARKETING life, as often reflected in his music, was shaped by misdirection, • Released on the first anniversary of George Jones’ death chaos, turmoil, and emotional strife aggravated by a ferocious • Print and online coverage in general music and country music appetite for alcohol.

SPRING 2014 CATALOG 7 APRIL The Backbeat Spirituality Series

A portable collection of inspiring books.

One constant of popular culture is its value of celebrities and public figures. Some icons transcend divides and appeal to all kinds of individuals for various reasons. They are leaders in their own ways, using their celebrity platforms to make a difference. Regardless of any religious or nonreligious stance, their actions and insights can highlight for us particular universally spiritual concepts. This series of pocket-size books taps into that cultural value of celebrity and presents, in a balanced and secular fashion, words of wisdom such celebrities have spoken. Series editor Nicholas Nigro weaves together insightful quotes and gathers them by theme (“Creativity,” “Passion,” “Intention”), offering texts from which readers can extrapolate their own meanings and, in turn, find added inspiration to live their best day-to-day lives. “Your intention, motives, and purpose really define who you are.…And once those three are crystallized and sharpened and are tuned into something, things open up for you—supreme synchronicity and blessings, opportunities, possibilities.” —Carlos Santana

The Spirituality of Bono edited by Nicholas Nigro Backbeat Books The Spirituality of Bono is a rich compendium of the singer’s most thought provoking, uplifting, and persuasive words. Bono’s insights, zeal, and good humor, too, are revealed in introspective, frank, and occasionally salty language. His spirituality and humanitarianism are heartfelt and will most definitely make readers think and, if Bono has his way, act to make this world a more just and humane place to live in.

20 HAL LEONARD PERFORMING ARTS PUBLISHING GROUP MARCH Zen and the Art of Mixing: REV 2 by Mixerman Hal Leonard Books

REV 2 is the updated edition of this best selling work on the creative process and art of mixing.

In his first book, The Daily Adventures of Mixerman, the author detailed the frustrating and often hilarious goings on during the process of recording a major-label band. Musicians, engineers, and producers laughed and cried at the crazy goings-on they’d never imagined—or recognized all too well. Now, in his REV 2, fully updated edition of Zen and the Art of Mixing, Mixerman turns his razor-sharp gaze to the art of mixing and gives fol- lowers and the uninitiated reason to hope—if not for logic and civility in the recording studio then at least for a good sounding record. With a firm commitment to art over technology and to maintaining a grasp of each, Mixerman outlines his own approach to recording success, based on his years mixing records in all genres of music for all kinds of artists, often under trying circumstances. As he states in his introduction to the new volume, “Even if you’re not a professional mixer, even if you’re MARKETING a musician trying to mix your own work or a studio owner in a smaller market, you have your own set of pressures to deal with • National print and online publicity campaign in music trade outlets that cover music business while you’re mixing.

SPRING 2014 CATALOG 21 APRIL The Evolution of Mann Herbie Mann and the Flute in Jazz by Cary Ginell Hal Leonard Jazz Biography Series Hal Leonard Books More than any other musician, Herbie Mann was responsible for establishing the flute as an accepted jazz instrument. Prior to his arrival, the flute was a secondary instrument for saxophon- ists, but Mann found a unique voice for the flute, presenting it in different musical contexts, beginning with Afro-Cuban, and then continuing with music from Brazil, the Middle East, the Caribbean, Japan, and Eastern Europe. As Mann once said, “People would say to me, ‘I don’t know where you are right now,’ and I would respond, ‘And you’re not going to know where I’m going to be tomorrow.’” A self-described restless spirit, Herbie Mann also was a master at marketing himself. His insatiable curiosity about the world led him to experiment with different kinds of sounds, becoming a virtual Pied Piper of jazz. He attracted thousands to his concerts while alienating purists and critics alike. His career lasted for five decades, from his beginnings in a tiny Brooklyn nightclub to appearances on international stages. “I want to be as synonymous with the flute as Benny Goodman is for the clarinet,” he was fond of saying. By the time he died of prostate cancer in 2003, he had fulfilled his desire.

In 1939, he joined Earl Hines’ orchestra, composing and performing the hits “Jelly, Jelly” and “Stormy Monday Blues.” In 1944, he formed an orchestra that included, during its brief three-year run, the greatest stars in bebop, including Charlie Parker, Dizzy Gillespie, Miles Davis, and Sarah Vaughan.

But regardless, you’re supposed to hold your head up high and walk tall.” This sums up the life of Julian “Cannonball” Adderley, a man who used a gargantuan technique on the alto saxophone, pride in heritage, devotion to educating youngsters, and insatiable musical curiosity to bridge gaps between jazz and popular music in the 1960s and ’70s. His career began in 1955 with a Cinderella-like cameo in a New York nightclub, resulting in the jazz world’s looking to him as “the New Bird,” the successor to the late Charlie Parker.

An idealistic artist, a celebrated opera singer, and a corrupt police chief engage in a fierce battle of wills in this tempestuous tale of passion, intrigue, cruelty, and deception. Puccini’s great melodrama may be set in 1800, amid the Napoleonic wars, but the conflicts between love and loyalty, the state and the individual, and hypocrisy and principle are anything but dated. Floria Tosca, the beautiful, glamorous singer who has all of Rome at her feet, is one of the iconic soprano roles in the Italian reper- toire. She’s caught between two men—her lover, the handsome painter Cavaradossi, who defies the law to hide a rebel friend; and the villainous Baron Scarpia, Rome’s all-powerful chief of police, who will stop at nothing to crush the rebels and conquer Tosca for himself. This gripping story of torture, attempted rape, murder, suicide, and general mayhem is as thrilling and dramatic as anything seen on the operatic stage.

SPRING 2014 CATALOG 29 MAY Richard Strauss An Owner’s Manual by David Hurwitz Unlocking the Masters Series, No. 25 Amadeus Press

A rewarding guide to the work of an eminent composer who bridged two centuries and musical eras.

The life and music of Richard Strauss (1864–1949) span what was arguably the most turbulent period in human history, encompassing the Franco-Prussian War, the unification of Germany, and two world wars. He was one of the very last composers to have started his career in service to the old European aristocracy, but near the end of his life, the continent lay in shambles, and he faced financial ruin even as he remained Germany’s greatest living composer. Virtually from the day they were written, Strauss’s tone poems from the late nineteenth century—works such as Don Juan, Till Eulenspiegel, Also Sprach Zarathustra, and Death and Transfiguration—have been repertory standards. So have the operas Salome, Elektra, and Der Rosenkavalier.

The author enjoyed unparalleled access to the director and his family and friends, enabling him to bring unique insights to the book.

More than any other director, Francis Ford Coppola exemplifies the drive and invention of modern American cinema. Acclaimed since his first Godfather movie in 1972, he went on to win the Palme d’Or at Cannes for The Conversation and to make an unforgettable impact on audiences worldwide with the gripping Vietnam War epic Apocalypse Now. He has also launched the careers of such actors as Nicolas Cage and Tom Cruise. In recent years, Coppola has returned to his roots—to the low-budget, personal movie, written and directed without the involvement of the major Hollywood studios, working in Romania (for Youth without Youth), Argentina (for Tetro), and his home state of California (for Twixt). Additionally, he has encouraged the work of other talented filmmakers—from his daughter Sofia (Lost in Translation, Marie Antoinette) to Brazilian director Walter Salles (On the Road) to Robert De Niro (The Good Shepherd). In 2010, he was awarded his sixth Oscar—the Irving G. Thalberg Memorial Award.

SPRING 2014 CATALOG 39 APRIL Dramatic Circumstances On Acting, Singing, and Living Inside the Stories We Tell by William Wesbrooks Applause Theatre & Cinema Books

A potent method for unleashing the power of story in performance.

In this groundbreaking book, noted director and educator William Wesbrooks provides an exciting and eminently practi- cal approach for singers and actors who want to think about their work in a way that brings them a greater sense of vitality, freedom, and empowerment.

“In Stella!, Sheana Ochoa has captured a life lived well and large.” —Mark Ruffalo, actor

Arthur Miller decided to become a playwright after seeing her perform with the Group Theater. Marlon Brando attributed his acting to her genius as a teacher. Theater critic Robert Brustein calls her the greatest acting teacher in America. At the turn of the 20th century Stella Adler became a child star of the Yiddish stage in New York, where she was being groomed to refine acting craft and eventually help pioneer its modern gold standard: method acting. Stella’s emphasis on experiencing a role through the actions in the given circum- stances of the work directs actors toward a deep sociological understanding of the imagined characters: their social class, geographic upbringing, biography, which enlarges the actor’s creative choices. For this book, Sheana Ochoa worked alongside Irene Gilbert, Stella’s friend of 30 years, who provided Ochoa with a trove of Stella’s personal and pedagogical materials, and Ochoa MARKETING interviewed Stella’s entire living family, including her daughter • 2014 marks the 80th anniversary since Stella studied with Ellen; her colleagues and friends, from Arthur Miller to Karl Stanislavski (the only American teacher to do so) in 1934 Malden; and her students from Robert De Niro to Mark Ruffalo. • Author events in L.A., New York, Philadelphia, Chicago, and DC, Unearthing countless unpublished letters and interviews, private doing screenings of Stella’s Love on Toast film with talkbacks at audio recordings, Stella’s extensive FBI file, class videos and venues such as the Power House Arena and with SAG-AFTRA private audio recordings, Ochoa’s biography introduces one of • Print and online coverage, including guest blogging by the author the most under recognized, yet most influential luminaries of and author interviews the 20th century. • TV and radio interviews on shows like All Things Considered, Leonard Lopate Show, HowlRound TV, and Thirteen “Over the four decades I have been producing films in Hollywood I have continuously heard the name of Stella Adler spoken with RELATED TITLES: Stella Adler: The Art of Acting enormous reverence by actors.

The latest compilation in this acclaimed series of the new one-act works produced by America’s finest theater companies, featuring a broad range of styles, topics, and regional tastes.

For over 70 years, The Best American Short Plays has been the standard of excellence for one-act plays in America. From its inception, it has identified cutting-edge playwrights who have gone on to establish award-winning careers, including Tennessee Williams, Edward Albee, and more.

We learn to follow rules of proper behavior and more than happily issue out advice to our friends who just can’t get a handle on themselves. Restraint and order, after all, are the cornerstones of human society and civilization. The problem is that human nature bucks and bridles at every attempt to socialize and civilize. Shakespeare got it right when he penned the observation, “The MARKETING brain may devise laws for the blood, but a hot temper leaps o’er • Publicity for the series targeting major newspapers including the a cold decree.” In those few words he has managed to capture New York Times, Wall Street Journal, New York Observer, Los precisely why it is so difficult to be human; if it were okay simply Angeles Times, and Washington Post to let our hot tempers prevail, life would be so much easier.

SPRING 2014 CATALOG 55 MARCH Bathed in Lightning John McLaughlin, the 60s and the Emerald Beyond by Colin Harper Jawbone Press

In 2010, Jeff Beck dubbed McLaughlin “the best guitarist alive,” while for Miles Davis, he was simply “the one.”

On February 16, 1969, John McLaughlin flew into New York, from London, in a snowstorm. The following day, Miles Davis, his hero, invited him to play on a record. Two years later, on the path of Bengali mystic Sri Chinmoy, John launched The Mahavishnu Orchestra—an evocation in music of spiritual aspiration and extraordinary power, volume and complexity, far beyond anything else in jazz or rock. Curiously, it was also a huge success. John McLaughlin brought rock music to its pinnacle, the end point in an evolution from Mississippi blues through Coltrane, Hendrix and the Beatles. And then, in November 1975, he hung up his electric guitar and walked away from the stadiums of the rock world for an ongoing, restless career in music of other forms.
