Kennedy L: Shostakovich's Ballets and
the Search for Soviet Dance

Shostakovich's Ballets and the Search for Soviet Dance

Loco&nbsp;is the first volume of autobiography from Dez Fafara. The California-born and raised everyman is now the singer and leader of the band DevilDriver, artist manager, multiple brand owner, and motivational guru. In the period of time covered in&nbsp;Loco, though, Dez was just Bradley Fafara, a Hollywood club kid who escaped a lifetime wasted (in both senses) on the beach to become one of the 1990's most vivid rock stars. With his band Coal Chamber, Dez pioneered a whole new sound and visual, touring the world, battling innumerable obstacles and ultimately breaking free to go solo with DevilDriver, the focus of Volume Two of Fafara's two-book autobiography plan. Titled after Coal Chamber's 1997 hit,&nbsp;Loco&nbsp;describes the arc of a man who was ripped off, let down, and beaten up, but who never quit-and who ultimately achieved his own form of redemption. Includes 50+ black-and-white and full-color images.

LOCO: Chaos, Calamity, and Coal Chamber

Eva Ibbotson's classic historical romance about love, freedom and ballet sweeps us from grey scholarly Cambridge to the glittering brightness and freedom of Brazil.

A Company of Swans

As principal dancer with Montréal-based company La La La Human Steps, Louise Lecavalier was among the most iconic dancers of her generation: strong, muscled, androgynous, punk. Moving with spectacular speed, precision and an athletic physicality, her commitment to dancing would ultimately transform the potential of what bodies within Western concert dance could do.
 
 Drawing on extensive oral history accounts and archival material, the book follows Lecavalier's impact on the evolving aesthetic of La La La Human Steps, via the development of its early repertoire, and offers the first sustained account of her 1982 solo Non, Non, Non, je ne suis pas Mary Poppins. More, it tracks diverse influences and sources for the repertoire, complicating understandings of nationalism in Québec, while marking the significance of the collective in generating new aesthetics. What emerges is a portrait of the dancer as artist, icon, labourer and mover of cultural discourse. 
Featuring an expansive set of photos and ephemera, including performance documentation by photographer/activist Linda Dawn Hammond, production images by choreographer Édouard Lock and street photography by key players in the 1980s Montréal scene, this study offers a critical and celebratory appraisal of Lecavalier's unique contribution and the role of the dancer more broadly as a producer of culture.

This volume investigates the contributions and achievements of the physically disabled dancer while at the same time challenging and recognizing the inherent inequities in the field of integrated dance in the UK which currently places greater emphasis on the learning-disabled performer.

The Number One Global Bestselling Memoir ?Stunningly candid . . . Keough's portrait of her mother in her final months is especially indelible' - Washington Post In 2022, Lisa Marie Presley asked her daughter to help finally finish her long-conceived memoir. A month later, Lisa Marie was dead, and the world would never know her story in her own words. Riley knew she had to fulfil her mother's wish, to reveal her complex, incandescent and painful memories, to the world. And to finally make her mother known. For the first time - in this raw, riveting, one-of-a-kind memoir, Lisa Marie shares her untold story. About being born to an American myth, raised in the wilds of Graceland. About the unconditional love she felt from her father, Elvis. About getting dragged screaming out of the bathroom as she ran towards his body on the floor. About living in Los Angeles with her mother Priscilla, getting sent to school after school, always kicked out, always in trouble. About her singular, lifelong relationship with Danny Keough, and about being married to Michael Jackson. About motherhood. About deep addiction. About ever-present grief. Profoundly moving and deeply revealing, From Here to the Great Unknown is a book like no other - composed of both Lisa Marie's and Riley's voices - and the last words of the only child of a true legend.

Dr Stuart Campbell provides here the first English translation of Tchaikovsky's critical writings on music. Much of the material originates from the numerous articles written by the composer for the Moscow periodical press between 1868 to 1875, and affords a survey of eminent performers to be heard there, including Auer, von BÃ¿low, Nilsson, Patti and the Rubinstein brothers. As well as following Tchaikovsky's reaction to the Russian musical scene much material is devoted to the operas then being experienced by Moscow audiences, with reviews of works by Halévy, Meyerbeer, Mozart, Rossini, Thomas, Verdi and Wagner and orchestral works by Beethoven, Berlioz, Saint-SaÃ«ns, Schubert and Schumann. The volume also covers Tchaikovsky's first visit to the Bayreuth Festival of 1876, the autobiographical account of his European concert tour in 1888, and his attitude to the music of his great contemporaries Brahms, Verdi and Wagner. The collection therefore offers valuable insight into Tchaikovsky's views on music, performance and repertoire that are relevant to the study of his own compositions, and extends our understanding of nineteenth-century music in general.

The collection therefore offers valuable insight into Tchaikovsky's views on music, performance and repertoire that are relevant to the study of his own compositions. In addition, the articles provide fascinating glimpses into the composer's personality and an appreciation of his elegant literary style. The volume is not only of importance for elucidating a time when Russian musical life was developing rapidly, but also in extending an understanding of nineteenth-century music in general.
