This is the most glorious of books. I am besotted by the life I never knew he had.' -Elton John'Orgasmic. Every page of Scattershot is a delight, a joy, a name-dropper fan's delight. Divine. I couldn't put it down.' -Pete Townshend 'In Bernie Taupin's miraculous memoir Scattershot you'll meet legends, cowboys, geniuses, unforgettable faces in the night, shady purveyors of outrageous fortune, warriors of the heart, and most of all, Taupin himself. Hilarious and so emotionally true, Scattershot is like a letter from a cherished friend. You'll want to keep it close, so you can read it again and again.' -Cameron Crowe 'Touching. Charming. Humble. Witty. And exquisitely written. Taupin's words need no musical accompaniment. They sing with a poets voice.' -Gary Oldman 'Eloquent and inspiring, Scattershot is a freewheeling memoir that is as warm and evocative as Bernie Taupin's most memorable lyrics. A born storyteller, Taupin gives us the life of an artist whose outlook was shaped by a rare but fascinating blend of lifelong innocence and endless intellectual curiosity.' -Robert Hilburn, author of Johnny Cash: The Life"I loved writing, I loved chronicling life and every moment I was cogent, sober, or blitzed, I was forever feeding off my surroundings, making copious notes as ammunition for future compositions. . . . The thing is good, bad or indifferent I never stopped writing, it was as addictive as any drug."This is the memoir music fans have been waiting for. Half of one of the greatest creative partnerships in popular music, Bernie Taupin is the man who wrote the lyrics for Elton John, who conceived the ideas that spawned countless hits, and sold millions and millions of records. Together, they were a duo, a unit, an immovable object. Their extraordinary, half-century-and-counting creative relationship has been chronicled in biopics (like 2019's Rocketman) and even John's own autobiography, Me. But Taupin, a famously private person, has kept his own account of their adventures close to his chest, until now.Written with honesty and candour, Scatterhot allows the reader to witness events unfolding from Taupin's singular perspective, sometimes front and center, sometimes from the edge, yet always described vibrantly, with an infectious energy that only a vivid songwriter's prose could offer. From his childhood in the East Midlands of England whose imagination was sparked and forever informed by the distinctly American mythopoetics of country music and cowboys, to the glittering, star-studded fishbowl of '70s and '80s Beverly Hills, Scattershot is simultaneously a Tom Jones­-like picaresque journey across a landscape of unforgettable characters, as well as a striking, first-hand account of a creative era like no other and one man's experience at the core of it.An exciting, multi-decade whirlwind, Scattershot whizzes around the world as we ride shotgun with Bernie on his extraordinary life. We visit New York with him and Elton on the cusp of global fame. We spend time with him in Australia almost in residency at an infamous rock 'n' roll hotel in an endless blizzard of drugs. And we spend late, late night hours with John Lennon, with Bob Marley, and hanging with Frank Sinatra. And beyond the world of popular music, we witness memorable encounters with writers like Graham Greene, painters like Andy Warhol and Salvador Dali, and scores of notable misfits, miscreants, eccentrics, and geniuses, known and unknown. Even if they're not famous in their own right, they are stars on the page, and we discover how they inspired the indelible lyrics to songs such as "Tiny Dancer," "Candle in the Wind," "Bennie and The Jets," and so many more.Unique and utterly compelling, Scattershot will transport the reader across the decades and around the globe, along the way meeting some of the greatest creative minds of the 20th century, and into the vivid imaginings of one of music's most legendary lyricists.

Mit "Eternal Hug" - The Piano Song Collection Vol. III liegt bereits der dritte Klaviernotenband vom Komponisten Manuel Pabst vor. (nach "Love Always Flows", ISBN 978-3751918534 und Fineness", ISBN: 9783752877625).Die 10 neuen Stücke vereinigen klassische, romantische und populäre Elemente und können vielleicht der "Jungen Klassik" oder auch der "Populären Klassik" zugeordnet werden. Die abwechslungsreichen Klavierstücke bereichern das gängige Vortragsrepertoire und ergänzen fantasievoll den Instrumentalunterricht. Die Klavierkompositionen erinnern teilweise an Filmmusik und beeindrucken mit klaren, rhythmischen und lyrischen Melodien. Sie sind spielbar auf überwiegend mittlerem (teilweise auch leichterem) Schwierigkeitsniveau.Einen Teil der Inspiration verdankt Manuel Pabst seiner Liebe zur Klaviermusik der romantischen Epoche. Er nennt seine Musik selber gerne"Nordic Nocturnes" und gibt dem Norden und dem Leben am Meer einen Klang.

A collection of music and lyrics that form the last unpublished work of one of Canada's most remarkable poets.

This empirical and theoretical book should be of interest to anyone who dares to consider the contentious topic of measuring and justifying aesthetic value in music, as well as the issue of how experts compare to nonexperts in terms of aesthetic fluency, aesthetic sensitivity and aesthetic judgment in appraising music. The book should be both practical and personal for anyone who has a music collection and loves to see it grow continuously but wisely. What makes someone an expert? The key issue I tackle is how one develops into such a connoisseur of music. Overall, the book should spark much healthy debate about music quality and aesthetics in general, both among scholars of aesthetics and the musically passionate general public. Many of the ideas for connoisseur development for music could also be applied to appraisal in other areas of aesthetics beyond music, such as films, visual art, or literature.

Around 2008 and onward, during my time attending Unity Church in Marathon, Florida Keys, alongside my partner Carolyn, I conceived a variety of melodies and songs aimed at fostering hope, love, and prayer. This involved referencing not only Jesus but also other spiritual leaders, each with their unique perspectives. I tend to lean towards a more liberal standpoint in terms of my willingness to engage with certain religious preachers who emphasize conservative notions of hell, sin, and damnation, though I've included them in this collection as well. Initially, I grappled with the choice between the titles "In the Hands of Jesus" or "In the Hands of God."In the process of assembling this compilation of songs and instrumentals, I've also incorporated additional melodies that aren't directly tied to Jesus. My perspective on religion remains open, and I extend my support to all faiths and matters of spiritual enlightenment, except for those that involve worshiping and adoring the devil. My intention is not to pass judgment or preach, recognizing that each individual is on their distinct path to God, a journey shared even by all living creatures, plants, and trees on our planet.Like everyone else, I face moments of uncertainty as I navigate the multitude of life's mysteries waiting to be explored and embraced. Reading "My Journey Back to God" by Kristen Dickerson served as a source of inspiration, prompting me to not postpone the creation of this collection, especially considering certain medical challenges. Time is of the essence! Alexander

We are creative organisms, pattern-seeking learning machines; the only thing that stops us is how we use our minds.The ideas in this book will spark your creativity and demonstrate the techniques used.It is beholden upon us to think bigger, better, and more creatively. We cannot fix the mess in the world by using the same thinking that created it.

Following Book 1, which is a largely personal account of the authors experiences as musician and composer, this, Book 2, now reissued with corrections, takes a more objective stance, contains essays, articles, on musical activity in the wider world. Several were previously published, in periodicals, and as a contribution to a book. Hence these idiosyncratic musings jump about somewhat, con-joining various aspects of 'life, the universe and everything' with notions on the being of music, internally and externally.Some chapters are more pointedly focussed, with specific goals, which certainly applies to some historical essays. And there I make use of a Jungian model of flows in the psyche, which I found highly appropriate to track musical movements, paralleling composers' mind flows. There are thoughts on possible futures for the arts, sonic healing, a readable exposition of the Jungian model, using that in a view of Western music history, archaeology of sounds, a deep view of Indian song, an examination of the interrelations of the characters in 'The Magic Flute' and a history of music at The Bauhaus. A heterodox collection, to be sure, but something there for a wide appreciation of matters musical.
