The biography of Simon Rattle, the new music director of the Berlin Philharmonic, updated for paperback publication.Still in his mid-forties, Simon Rattle is a musician for the new century: he is equally at home conducting Beethoven symphonies, the twentieth-century repertory with which he made his reputation with the City of Birmingham Orchestra, new works he has commissioned, jazz by Ellington and Bernstein, or baroque opera with the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment. His range is unique, his achievements already remarkable. As Rattle takes on the music directorship of the Berlin Philharmonic, Nicholas Kenyon talks to him as well as to his friends and colleagues about what has made Rattle one of the most powerful musical communicators of our time--and looks at the challenges that await him in Berlin.
Editorial : "Tells Rattle's story thoroughly and compellingly as an introductory guide to the musical politics of the concert world, the record industry, and post-unification Berlin, Kenyon is unsurpassed. Above all, we discover a conductor who believes as passionately as ever that great music and music-making really matter to humankind--for that alone, much thanks." --BBC Music Magazine

If they are only going to be a daisy for one year they might not make very good use of it but it would still be nice for them to have and read on their own. There might be some useful ideas in this book, I have just started the class and therefore just started the book. I love how she uses natural and DIY recipes as alternatives to everyday products. Michael Bliss is a teacher who leads us to a deeper understanding leads us to understand the facts.
Advisable for students and doctors.. This is truly a feast for the eyes and the tummy. I sure would have done things differently.. However, I would have liked to see more "hard" problems.
In summary, I'd recommend that you pick up a
