    The Notation is Not the Music: Reflections on Early Music Practice and Performance, Publications of the Early Music Institute , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 224min
    Written by a leading authority and artist of the historical transverse flute, The Notation Is Not the Music offers invaluable insight into the issues of historically informed performance and the parameters - and limitations - of notation-dependent performance. As Barthold Kuijken illustrates, performers of historical music should consider what is written on the page as a mere steppingstone for performance. Only by continual examination and reexamination of the sources to discover original intent can an early music practitioner come close to authentic performance.

    Farewell, Aleppo: My Father, My People, and Their Long Journey Home , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 232min
    The Jews of Aleppo, Syria, had been part of the city's fabric for more than two thousand years, in good times and bad, through conquerors and kings. But in the middle years of the twentieth century, all that changed. To Selim Sutton, a merchant with centuries of roots in the Syrian soil, the dangers of rising anti-Semitism made clear that his family must find a new home. With several young children and no prospect of securing visas to the United States, he devised a savvy plan for getting his family out: "exporting" his sons. In January, he sent two oldest, Meir and Saleh, just 19 and 17 years old, to Shanghai to work in an uncle's export business, with hopes that China would provide a steppingstone to America. All this changed in December 1941 when Japanese forces bombed Pearl Harbor and seized Shanghai the next day. From then until the end of the war, Mike endured Japanese occupation in Shanghai alone, across the world from his family, with only his mettle to rely on as he strived to survive personally and economically in the face of increasing deprivation. Told with a journalist's eye and a daughter's love, Farewell, Aleppo is the poignant story, written and narrated by Mike's daughter, of the journey that would ultimately take him from the insular Jewish community of Aleppo to the solitary task of building a new life in America. ungekürzt.

    Sink or Swim , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 273min
    When it comes to romance, Jennifer Bloom sees herself as more of a coach than a team player. Still reeling from the dangerous relationship she fled a year ago, Jen is finally getting her head above water. Her job as a housekeeper at the Inn at Crescent Cove has been a lifesaver, but she's ready to move on to something more fulfilling. And she knows exactly what she wants - to manage the inn. That job would allow her to stay in Crescent Cove, the place she's come to think of as home. And stay close to the people she cares about, especially Luke - the inn's chef and her best friend. If it hadn't been for him, she probably would have drowned in self-pity by now. Luke Strong considers his job as head chef at the inn to be a steppingstone. The last thing he expected was to get attached to the people of this small coastal town. But from the first day that Jen walked in to apply for the housekeeping job, he's been smitten. Too bad she doesn't see him as anything more than a friend. So when he's offered a job that would put him closer to his goal of owning his own restaurant, he's torn. Should he take it or stay put, on the chance that Jen might change her mind about him? When another woman arrives in town to interview for the management job, Jen's plans get tossed overboard. Realizing that the woman has her eye on more than just the job, Jen questions her own motives for staying in Crescent Cove. Is it the town...or the promise of love? It's sink or swim for Jen. But is she too late to dive in? Crescent Cove. Where true love comes in waves. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Becky Doughty.

    Together We Stand: North Africa 1942-1943: Turning the Tide in the West, Hörbuch, Digital, 369min
    The birth of an alliance that changed the course of history. From the best-selling author of Fortress Malta, this is the second book in the Mediterranean war trilogy. This audiobook looks afresh at the conflict in Northern Africa, focusing for the first time on the involvement of the US and the way this early collaboration to defeat Rommel shaped the whole Anglo-American axis for the rest of the war in Europe. By June 1942, Britain had reached her lowest ebb. Her military command was in tatters, her armies beaten, and in the Middle East it seemed all might be lost. Her new ally, America, had only fledgling armed forces and was severely under-trained, yet it was this alliance of the weary combatant and naïve newcomer, coming together for the first time in North Africa, that would eventually bring about the defeat of Nazi Germany. This crucial period - from defeat at Gazala through to the victories of Alamein and ultimately in Tunisia - was a time of learning for the Allies, yet by the end Britain and America had finally gained material and certain tactical advantages over Germany, particularly in the air warfare. As this book shows, the development of a tactical air force - principles that are still used to this day - were founded over the skies of North Africa. When the Axis forces were finally driven from North Africa in May 1943, over 250,000 Axis troops were taken prisoner, more than had surrendered to the Russians at Stalingrad. It was a major victory and a crucial steppingstone to the future invasion of Italy and France. In this new reappraisal, James Holland also interweaves the personal stories of the men - and women - who made up these polyglot Allied forces: British and American, Nepalese and Punjabi, South African and Australian, Maori and Zulu, from all ranks and all services. From the heat and dust of the Western Desert to the mud and mountains of Northern Tunisia, this book charts the extraordinary first Language: English. Narrator: Tim Pigott-Smith.

    Prism
    JOHN KAIZAN NEPTUNE John Kaizan Neptune brings to the shakuhachi (bamboo flute) a new and dynamic sound and feeling entirely his own. A California-born American, Neptune received his master's certificate in the Tozan School of Shakuhachi in 1977, at which time he was awarded the name "Kaizan" ("Sea Mountain"). He is the author of the book SHAKUHACHI, and has performed and recorded in many countries around the world. His second album, BAMBOO, was named Outstanding Record of the Year by the Cultural Affairs Agency of the Japanese Ministry of Education, subsequent albums (23 to date) and his concerts throughout Japan, Asia, Australia, America, and Europe have made his original music, from traditional Japanese to contemporary jazz, widely know and loved by people of all ages. Neptune, who is acknowledged to be among the top masters of the instrument in Japan, now lives in Kamogawa, Chiba-ken, where he continues to make, write for and experiment with the instrument he had adopted as his own. PRISM NOTES Prism is an object that has two parallel bases joined by three (or more) lateral sides. As a transparent triangular form with refracting surfaces at an acute angle with each other, it separates white light into a spectrum of colors. One of the great things about writing and arranging for a group like "Prism" is the wide spectrum of colors that each musician brings to the sound canvas. It is often a challenge to get everyone working from the same page, but there is joy in the process. The acoustic instruments were recorded in a hall with no artificial echo or other sound modification. I hope the natural sound emerging from our " prism" will take you someplace. PRISM is: John Kaizan Neptune - shakuhachi Sawako Fukuhara - koto Ryoka Yoshihama - cello Special guest artists: Keiichi Ishibashi - bass Christopher Hardy - percussion Neptune in Review "John Kaizan Neptune has expanded the possibilities of the Japanese shakuhachi flute to embrace the realms of jazz and fusion. At the same time, through many long years of training in the classical repertoire of the instrument, he has become one of the most outstanding exponents of the shakuhachi currently active in Japan. He is joined by musicians who together create music that transcends national boundaries and the origins of their instruments. It is surely music such as this which deserves the label of "World Music" and which is likely to serve as a steppingstone towards music of the future." - Akira Ebato, University Ethnomusicologist "At times Neptune and the rhythm section sounded as much Latin or Afro-Cuban as American or Asian. The walls are crumbling, and if results of this caliber can be achieved, we may as well stop worrying about categories." After hearing a live performance in LA - Leonard Feather, Jazz Critic.
