Heart Full of Rhythm
Author: Ricky Riccardi
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0190914122
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 433
Book Description
Nearly 50 years after his death, Louis Armstrong remains one of the 20th century's most iconic figures. Popular fans still appreciate his later hits such as "Hello, Dolly!" and "What a Wonderful World," while in the jazz community, he remains venerated for his groundbreaking innovations in the 1920s. The achievements of Armstrong's middle years, however, possess some of the trumpeter's most scintillating and career-defining stories. But the story of this crucial time has never been told in depth until now. Between 1929 and 1947, Armstrong transformed himself from a little-known trumpeter in Chicago to an internationally renowned pop star, setting in motion the innovations of the Swing Era and Bebop. He had a similar effect on the art of American pop singing, waxing some of his most identifiable hits such as "Jeepers Creepers" and "When You're Smiling." However as author Ricky Riccardi shows, this transformative era wasn't without its problems, from racist performance reviews and being held up at gunpoint by gangsters to struggling with an overworked embouchure and getting arrested for marijuana possession. Utilizing a prodigious amount of new research, Riccardi traces Armstrong's mid-career fall from grace and dramatic resurgence. Featuring never-before-published photographs and stories culled from Armstrong's personal archives, Heart Full of Rhythm tells the story of how the man called "Pops" became the first "King of Pop."

Pages : 108
Book Description
1 - 2 Let's All Play is an engaging and user-friendly collection of music and movement activities designed for educators, facilitators, parents and anyone working with children. The accessible step-by-step activities in this book present strategies designed to enhance rhythmic skills, creativity and self-expression in children. It is our hope that this book will inspire those working with young children to rekindle their own sense of wonder and creativity while exploring the exciting world of music and movement. Mary Knysh is a professional musician, recording artist, and international author. Mary is an Orff Schulwerk clinician and teaching artist for the Pennsylvania Council of the Arts, Young Audiences of NJ, and New York BOCES. She is endorsed by Rhythm Band Instruments and Remo corporations. Mary travels throughout the United States, Europe, and Asia offering drum circle facilitator trainings, performances, and workshops.

Lulu builds on her experiences with children, welderlies, special populations, and corporate groups to introduce the wonders of rhythm for bringing people together. Learn more at www.lulujam.com. Praise for 1 - 2 Let's All Play: "What appears on the surface to be a children's rhythm game book, is, in actuality, a powerful tool that, when utilized, not only teaches young kids rhythmical and musical abilities and appreciation, but implants foundational experiences in children that will enhance their personal relationship abilities and self-esteem for the rest of their lives. Being befriended and mentored over the years by both Lulu Leathley and Mary Knysh--each of them powerhouses of community rhythmical caregiving in their own right--I expect any book that they publish would be a wonderful addition to our mission of community rhythmical empowerment. In particular, the collaborative effort that they have put into 1 - 2 Let's All Play has created an extraordinarily "keep it simple" way to guide a group of children into the depths and bliss of interactive rhythmical expression. In this book, 1 - 2 Let's All Play, Lulu and Mary have made rhythmical evangelism for children so easy, that even parents can do it. Share your spirit with 1 - 2 Let's All Play." --Arthur Hull, Rhythm Facilitation pioneer, motivational trainer, founder of Village Music Circles, and author of Drum Circle Facilitation and Drum Circle Spirit

America, the Band
Author: Jude Warne
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 1538120968
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 284
Book Description
As if recovering from a raucous dream of the 1960s, Gerry Beckley, Dewey Bunnell, and Dan Peek arrived on 1970s American radio with a sound that echoed disenchanted hearts of young people everywhere. The three American boys had named their band after a country they’d watched and dreamt of from their London childhood Air Force base homes. What was this country? This new band? Classic and timeless, America embodied the dreams of a nation desperate to emerge from the desert and finally give their horse a name. Celebrating the band’s fiftieth anniversary, Gerry Beckley and Dewey Bunnell share stories of growing up, growing together, and growing older. Journalist Jude Warne weaves original interviews with Beckley, Bunnell, and many others into a dynamic cultural history of America, the band, and America, the nation. Reliving hits like “Ventura Highway,” “Tin Man,” and of course, “A Horse with No Name” from their 19 studio albums and incomparable live recordings, this book offers readers a new appreciation of what makes some music unforgettable and timeless. As America’s music stays in rhythm with the heartbeats of its millions of fans, new fans feel the draw of a familiar emotion. They’ve felt it before in their hearts and thanks to America, they can now hear it, share it, and sing along.
