La Ilustración es un fenómeno cultural de corte político y literario, pero también se proyecta con cierta originalidad en las artes plásticas, sobre todo en las de su potencia fundamental -Francia- y en algunos otros pueblos que aprovechan la ocasión para luchar por su libertad política y cultural en general. ©2013 Hiares Multimedia 2013, S.L.

Medienproduktions- und Vertriebsgesellschaft mbH Kategorien: Arts & Entertainment, Visual Arts Zusammenfassung: Gustav Mahler: unerhört! Der bislang umfangreichste "Klassik(ver)führer" von Auricula eröffnet neue Wege zum Giganten der Symphonie. Berlin, im November 2010: Gustav Mahler und sein Werk waren lange Zeit unterschätzt, verkannt und missverstanden. Erst während der letzten Jahrzehnte hat eine überwältigende Mahler-Renaissance eingesetzt, die im Jahr seines 150. Geburtstages 2010 und seines 100. Todestages 2011 einen vorläufigen Höhepunkt erreicht. Zu diesem Anlass ist in der Reihe "Der Klassik(ver)führer" die bislang umfangreichste Ausgabe erschienen, die sowohl dem Einsteiger den Zugang zu einem der großartigsten Musiker erleichtern wie auch dem Kenner neue Aspekte vermitteln möchte. Denn so sehr Mahlers Musik auch für sich und aus sich selbst heraus spricht, sind Einsichten in die Zusammenhänge zwischen Leben und Werk oder die musikalischen Strukturen seiner gigantischen Symphonien für ein tieferes Verständnis sinnvoll, das außerordentlichen Musikgenuss zum umfassenden Erlebnis machen kann. Sven Friedrich, Direktor des Richard-Wagner-Museums im Haus Wahnfried, Bayreuth, ist es gelungen, diese Aufgabe zu meistern und den Hörern mit den besonderen Möglichkeiten des Hörbuchs, dem Miteinander von Musik und Text, einen bislang ebenso attraktiven wie grundlegenden Weg zu einem der größten musikalischen Phänomene zu ebnen. Mit dem Schauspieler Hans-Jürgen Schatz konnte überdies nicht nur ein profilierter Sprecher gewonnen werden, sondern ein ebenfalls Mahler-Begeisterter. Das Hörbuch enthält mehr als 70 Musikausschnitte aus den Symphonien Nr. 1 bis 10 sowie aus "Lieder eines fahrenden Gesellen", "Kindertotenlieder" und "Das Lied von der Erde". Zu diesem Titel erhalten Sie eine PDF-Datei, die nach dem Kauf automatisch Ihrer Bibliothek hinzugefügt wird. (P)2010 Auricula Kontakt: info@hotaudiobook.com

And perhaps no cultural form associated with Italy is as steeped in the love of sprezzatura as opera, a genre the Italians invented. No composer has embodied the ideal of sprezzatura as magnificently as Giuseppe Verdi, the gruff, self-described "farmer" from the Po Valley who gave us 28 operas and remains to this day the most popular composer in the genre's 400-year-old history. His operas are produced more than those of any other composer, and one source claims that his La Traviata (1853) has been staged live somewhere around the world every evening for the past 100 years! This series of 32 lectures from one of music's most acclaimed teachers combines biography with a variety of musical excerpts to reveal the treasures of creativity that account for this popularity. It explores in depth and detail both the famous and not-so-famous Verdi operas, as well as his one great concert work, the Requiem Mass of 1874; his early songs; and his very last composition, a setting of the Stabat Mater. You trace his development from a more or less conventional composer of operas in the traditional Italian bel canto (beautifully sung) style to a creator of truly innovative musical dramas in which the power of music to intensify and explore human emotion is exploited to the fullest degree.

Best remembered for his landscape architecture, from New York's Central Park to Boston's Emerald Necklace to Stanford University's campus, Olmsted was also an influential journalist, early voice for the environment, and abolitionist credited with helping dissuade England from joining the South in the Civil War. This momentous career was shadowed by a tragic personal life, also fully portrayed here. Most of all, he was a social reformer. He didn't simply create places that were beautiful in the abstract. An awesome and timeless intent stands behind Olmsted's designs, allowing his work to survive to the present day. With our urgent need to revitalize cities and a widespread yearning for green space, his work is more relevant now than it was during his lifetime. Justin Martin restores Olmsted to his rightful place in the pantheon of great Americans. Contact: info@hotaudiobook.com

At times unsettling and violent, this book is doused in aggression, rebellion, alcoholism, and drug abuse, culminating in tough lessons of sobriety and absolution.

Hirsch Narrator: Mike Love Format: Unabridged Length: 15 hrs and 11 mins Language: English Release date: 09-13-16 Publisher: Penguin Audio Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Artists, Writers, & Musicians Summary: Mike Love tells the story of his legendary, raucous, and ultimately triumphant five-decade career as the front man of The Beach Boys, the most popular American band in history - timed to coincide with the 50th anniversary of "Good Vibrations". As a founding member of The Beach Boys, Mike Love has spent an extraordinary 55 years, and counting, as the group's lead singer and one of its principal lyricists. The Beach Boys, from their California roots to their international fame, are a unique American story - one of overnight success and age-defying longevity; of musical genius and reckless self-destruction; of spirituality, betrayal, and forgiveness - and Love is the only band member to be part of it each and every step. His own story has never been fully told, of how a sheet-metal apprentice became the quintessential front man for America's most successful rock band, singing in more than 5,600 concerts in 26 countries. Love describes the stories behind his lyrics for pop classics such as "Good Vibrations", "California Girls", "Surfin' USA", and "Kokomo", while providing vivid portraits of the turbulent lives of his three gifted cousins, Brian, Dennis, and Carl Wilson. His partnership with Brian has few equals in American pop music, though Mike has carved out a legacy of his own - he co-wrote the lyrics to 11 of the 12 original Beach Boy songs that were top 10 hits while providing the lead vocals on 10 of them. The band's unprecedented durability also provides a glimpse into America's changing cultural mores over the past half century, while Love himself has experienced both the diabolical and the divine - from Charles Manson's "family" threatening his life to Maharishi instilling it with peace. A husband, a father, and an avid environmentalist, Love has written a book that is as rich and layered as the Beach Boy harmonies themselves. Contact: info@hotaudiobook.com

Arbus comes startlingly to life here, a strong-minded child of unnerving originality who grew into a formidable artist. Arresting, unsettling, and poignant, her photographs stick in our minds. Why did these people fascinate her? And what was it about her that captivated them? It is impossible to understand the transfixing power of Arbus's photographs without understanding her life story. Arthur Lubow draws on exclusive interviews with Arbus's friends, lovers, and colleagues to explore her unique perspective. He deftly traces Arbus's development from a wealthy, sexually precocious free spirit into first a successful New York fashion photographer, and then a singular artist who coaxed hidden truths from her subjects. Lubow reveals that Arbus's profound need not only to see her subjects, but to be seen by them, drove her to forge unusually close bonds with these people, helping her discover the fantasies, pain, and heroism within each of them.
