Synopsis
Music tells stories. Musical stories entertain and stimulate in moments of boredom, they offer solace in times of despair, they create solidarity in times of loneliness, they liberate the imagination and open up visions of a better future. Musical stories also become parts of our personal life narratives that sustain feed us. This book is about the stories that music tells and the beauty and emotional power of these stories. This book is about the stories that music tells and the beauty and emotional power of these stories. When successful, these stories can provide dazzling insights into the lives that we lead, with its joys and sufferings, its reversals, its errors, deceptions and self-deceptions. This book offers a panorama of musical stories linked to pieces of classical music that have long fascinated the author, including operas, symphonies, song-cycles and chamber music. A close reading of these stories shows how profoundly music can affect and change the listeners: how it celebrates the triumphs of the human spirit, opening windows into our own unconscious minds, helping us to better understand ourselves, our fellow human beings, politics, religion, leadership, sex, difference, love, death and every other major aspect of human life. Critical acclaim: Imagine a friend who loved music, and who would keep saying interesting things about the music they loved. Their taste is not the same as yours, but their comments and stories make you want to listen to some of their favourite music, and also give you a different appreciation of the music that you love. Then imagine that this friend's interesting comments were grounded in hours and years of intense listening, that they had an unusual perspective to bring to the party (music as story), and that they said it all with grace and eloquence, and with the light touch of a gossip column. That is what this book is like. Enjoy it, and have your streaming device ready to explore! - David Sims, Storyteller, Musician, Emeritus Professor of Organizational Behaviour City University, In a world where commerce dictates the Arts, it is a joy to read this book, written with love and deep understanding as a heartfelt response to real music by my friend Yiannis, a fellow traveller in search of musical truth! - Bruno Schrecker (cellist with the Allegri String Quartet 1968-1999) 'This is a book for music lovers' says Yiannis Gabriel. The notion of love is crucial here. Academic musicology, however useful and insightful, rarely if ever, touches on the subjective experience of listening to music. But to believe that music is an objective experience, which can be adequately explained in scientific (or quasi-scientific) terms, or reduced to a socio-political epiphenomenon, is an illusion - comforting to some perhaps, but deadly when it comes to the individual's experience of discovering and learning to love a musical work. As with all things that matter to us, we try to make sense of music, not through factual analysis, but by weaving stories in our imaginations. This is both an intensely creative and an intensely personal experience. As the philosopher Ernst Bloch put it, 'When we listen to music, what we really hear is ourselves.' Yiannis Gabriel's book is a highly personal account of his experience of music: of the stories it has told to him and of the life-experiences in which those stories have played a very positive part. Far from being solipsistic or self-indulgent, far from telling us what we should hear when we listen to music, it invites us to follow his example and find stories and meanings of our own within the musical works he loves best. These are those for whom, in Nietzsche's famous phrase, 'Without music, life would be a mistake'. On reading this book, the conclusion we reach is that, with music's help, life is not a mistake, but a creative

Package was delayed ( by bad weather) and then misplaced at PO( placed in wrong box #) but I contacted the seller and they responded quickly and I got my item today.

It felt like it took forever to arrive, based on the listing info I wasn’t expecting this item to ship from outside of the US BUT based upon the shipping information it appears it had. So it took several weeks for this small, light item to arrive. Which seemed odd due to it being small and light and easy to package to ship, it was pretty annoying. When it did finally arrive it started to make more sense that it was shipped low prioriTron Legacy - CD JUVG The Fast Free Shipping (#303616470775)
