For fans of A Star is Born and Crazy Heart, Willy Vlautin's most personal novel yet - a poetic and deeply moving story about what it really takes to be a musician.

Vlautin Willy: The Horse

The Horse

'Extraordinary.' Ann Patchett

The Fleury Playbook has been justly celebrated as the most comprehensive extant collection of medieval music-dramas, containing in a single manuscript examples of non-biblical miracle plays, and settings of the Nativity and Resurrection stories, together with accounts of the conversion of Paul and Mary Magdalene. In this the first full-length monograph on the Playbook, Wyndham Thomas places the collection in its historical, cultural and musical context. Each of the 10 plays is treated to a close dramatic and musical analysis and placed in its broader context of musical life in the twelfth century.

2018 will mark the 800th anniversary of the consecration of the Abbey of St BenoÃ®t-sur-Loire - or Fleury Abbey - the previous home and namesake of the Fleury Playbook, a collection of 10 medieval music-dramas that has long held been a source of fascination, and not a little perplexity, for scholars in a variety of disciplines: history, music history, literary studies, art history in particular. The Fleury Playbook has been justly celebrated as the most comprehensive extant collection of medieval music-dramas, containing in a single manuscript examples of non-biblical miracle plays, and settings of the Nativity and Resurrection stories, together with accounts of the conversion of Paul and Mary Magdalene.  In this the first full-length monograph on the Playbook, Wyndham Thomas places the collection in its historical, cultural and musical context. The first three chapters introduce and then explore the issues raised by the collection: following an introduction, chapter 2 is devoted to the history and traditions of the Abbey, making a persuasive argument for that institution as the original home of the collection, and perhaps the venue in which the plays were first performed. Chapter 3 discusses medieval saints’ cults, placing the dramas, and particularly the four devoted to St Nicholas, in this context. The remaining chapters are devoted to a close musical and dramatic analysis of the 10 plays themselves.

The Fleury Playbook in Context

Medieval Music-Drama

Meet Mariddja: eccentric, 85-years-old, with not too long to live. When she learns of her cancer diagnosis, there is only one thing she can think of - how to keep the diagnosis from her husband Biera, and how to find someone who can take care of him once she's gone. Meet Kaj: a recent transplant to the village, recently-engaged to Mimmi, and recently mourning the death of his mother Laura. One day, when Kaj unexpectedly finds a box of Sami handicrafts belonging to his mother, he unlocks something he never quite anticipated, something that will change his life for years to come... A novel of humour and devastation, lyricism and tenderness, Those Who Sow in Snow introduces a cast of loveable, quirky characters grappling with the consequences of loving and losing someone, and the consequences of forgetting and remembering history.

SEMPRE Studies in The Psychology of Music

The Body in Music is a groundbreaking music psychology text innovatively marrying perspectives from western music performance practice and pedagogy with those spanning experimental to social research. Founded on a significant heritage of artistic practice, it reinvigorates traditional ideas with fresh knowledge garnered from the burgeoning field of inquiry into the role of the body in generating, communicating, and perceiving performance. An exemplar vignette, crafted from the authors' shared performance experience, sets the tone for the work, embedding it in an established socio-cultural context. Case-study driven chapters strive to reconcile empirical work and performance practice. Woven together, they form a narrative journeying the multi-dimensional roles of bodily engagement with music performance. This text is timely in that it bridges a widening gap between disciplines, researcher, and practitioner offering pathways of convergence towards developing theory and understanding of the body in music performance.

The Body in Music

Black music has long played a dominant role in American music and has frequently been taken over and popularized by white musicians. This book presents an overview of this influence, as well as discussions of how white musicians, corporations, and entrepreneurs appropriated, adapted, and even stole this music. It addresses why and how this occurred throughout recent history and in a variety of musical idioms. Examples discussed include the convoluted history of the minstrel era, Black pop and rock artists, white blues, jazz, rhythm and blues, and hip-hop musicians. Further examination into American music then reveals how Black musicians rebelled against the white domination of swing music, and how African Americans have influenced classical music compositions and performance styles. The book highlights the prevalence and importance of Black music in virtually every American music style, the often-hidden or little-noticed interactions of Black and white musicians, and it answers questions about how the music business succeeded in monetizing Black musical styles to market this music to mass audiences.
