<description><![CDATA["The Big Band Era of 1935 to 1946 was the only time in America's history when jazz was the most popular form of music. Fifteen piece swinging dance bands swept the country in popularity. The music they played became an important part of America's cultural history and created a level of morale that helped pull us through the Great Depression and World War II." "When Swing Was the Thing presents both an excellent introduction to the Era and new information for those already familiar with it, providing detailed profiles of the Era's bandleaders, musicians, vocalists, arrangers, and contributors, many based on personal interviews." "This book fully captures the nostalgic flavor of the Big Band Era through 114 vintage photographs and the story of the lives of the people who made it happen."--BOOK JACKE]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[""Admirably compact. Packed with richly resonant material." Daniel Snowman - Senior Research Fellow, Institute of Historical Research, University of London, and author of The Gilded Stage: A Social History of Opera" ""Wilson is a gifted writer and has packed a world of history, culture, and music into her new opera guide." Helen Greenwald - Musicologist, Department of Music History & Musicology, New England Conservatory" ""An enlightening, whistle-stop tour of the history of opera. Engaging and easily readable." Clair Rowden - Lecturer, School of Music, Cardiff University" "Opera is often dismissed as outdated and elitist, yet it is an art form that explores eternal and universal human concerns - love and death, jealousy and greed, power and loss." "Rescuing opera from tired cliches, this Beginner's Guide takes us on an engaging tour of its fascinating history. Alexandra Wilson examines the factors that have shaped the composition, production, and reception of classic works; charts how they have been performed on both stage and screen; and offers an insider's take on the latest debates about politics, gender, and race in opera. Assessing the art form's place in the modern world, this insightful introduction shows that, far from being inaccessible, opera is something that everyone can enjoy."--BOOK JACKE]]></description>

Love's first three albums were groundbreaking, combining elements of folk-rock, garage-punk, jazz, blues, flamenco, and classical music. Through exclusive interviews with those closest to Lee, "Forever Changes" paints a portrait of this intriguing, remarkable cult figure. The book also includes Lee's own voice throughout, drawn from his personal writings, letting both dedicated fans and newcomers discover this singular artist like never befor]]></description>
