Esta obra trata sobre una figura ilustre del panorama musical portugués del siglo XX, que hasta la fecha no ha despertado todo el interés que merece, a pesar de aparecer mencionada en diccionarios, enciclopedias, asi como en algunos articulos periodisticos publicados a lo largo de su carrera y/o postumamente. Francine Germaine Van Gool Benoit, nacio el 30 de julio de 1894 en Perigueux, Francia; hija de padre frances, Paul Benoit y de madre belga, Marie Victorine Van Gool. Llego a Portugal en 1906 (con 12 años), adquiriendo la nacionalidad portuguesa a los treinta y cinco años. Fallecio el 27 de enero de 1990, en Lisboa, a los 95 años de edad. Podemos decir, por tanto, que durante toda su vida, que como vemos fue larga, desarrollo una polifacetica y notable actividad en el campo de la musica. Ejercio como profesora, pedagoga, compositora, conferenciante, critica musical, activista femenina y cronista, reconocida por sus coetaneos debido a su caracter y singularidad. Francine Benoit fue una figura que aisladamente salvaguardo la historia del panorama musical artistico portugues, desvelando algunos aspectos esenciales de la practica musical de nuestro siglo desconocidos para nosotros. Partiendo de la presuncion de que es urgente la eliminacion de aquellas lagunas existentes en la Historia de la Musica Portuguesa Contemporanea, se hace indispensable dar a conocer individualidades destacadas de la actividad ideologico-musical de la sociedad lusa.

Uma coletanea essencial para todos os fs dessa artista mundialmente reconhecida e premiada."O livro narra o final da adolescencia de Marina Diamandis ate seus 30 e poucos anos, revisitando feridas do passado com sua sagacidade inconfundivel e o rico simbolismo que e a base de seu estilo lirico.

Downtown NYC of the mid-1970s and early 80s was the perfect landscape for reinvention. If the Lost Generation writers telegraphed the death of the American dream, the No Wave era, led by artists including Teenage Jesus & The Jerks, Nan Goldin, Sonic Youth and the Contortions, challenged that dream by howling "NO" while creating a counterculture that brought punk, rock, jazz, funk, the art world, hip hop, and outlaw literature together into an international explosion of creativity. Why was this scene so compelling, and remains so today? What set this confluence of time, place, and people apart from the rest? The answer, in a word: women. Women, resisting stereotypes. Reinventing themselves according to their individual artistic visions. Adele Bertei was a pivotal figure in the No Wave movement. She was an original member of the Contortions and Brian Enos fascination with the band resulted in the seminal No New York record, released in 1978. NO NEW YORK: A Memoir of No Wave and the Women Who Shaped the Scene will provide an uncompromising testimony to the first significant, international movement of women artists creating work on an equal footing with the men, the fruits of which were some of the most striking and unique of this era.

Its 1977, and punk rock has just hit Liverpool. The legendary Erics club is home to the citys rebels, posers and misfits. Its a place of attitude, adventure and new possibilities, and it changes lives. Some become pop stars; Penny Kiley becomes a music journalist. The story traces Pennys relationship with the music scene from the turbulent political 1980s into the changing culture of the 21st century. Throughout these years, she never stops being a misfit, and the question remains: how do you navigate normal life when punk is dead and you dont know youre autistic? Atypical Girl begins as a coming-of-age story and ends as a midlife reinvention. What unites them is a search for identity and the role that music plays in all our lives. * Featuring encounters with Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark, Echo & The Bunnymen, The Teardrop Explodes, Paul McCartney, The Cramps, Jonathan Richman, Tracey Thorn and more.

Jeremy Cooper, the author of Brian, returns with Discord, a subjective journey through the world of classical music. On a night in August, an audience at the Royal Albert Hall attends the first ever concert of Distant Voices. The Proms performance is the culmination of a years work between the middle-aged composer Rebekah Rosen and the young star-saxophonist Evie Bennet. Alternating between both perspectives, Discord charts the course of their intense and at times fractious relationship, the resonances and dissonances both women find within one another, as well as the struggles and satisfactions that accompany an artistic life. At the heart of the novel is an inquiry into the generative force behind creative collaboration. In what ways does the inexpressible that amorphous space of friction and unity between musicians become indelible? And by what process do flawed individuals create works of transcendence? Deeply insightful, at turns poignant and wry, Discord affirms Jeremy Coopers status as one of the most interesting fiction writers at work today.

At four years old, Caroline Sanderson fell in love with the music of Mozart after listening to it with her father. At eight, she fell even harder for the songs of David Bowie.

Musical theatre is a global art form that is constantly shaped by local contexts. In Vienna, the Vereinigte Buhnen Wien produce musicals that are particularly popular in Japan, which is their oldest and largest overseas market. This book provides a transnational history of Viennese musicals from 1945 to 2019, examining how institutional forces, municipal cultural politics and audience expectations have shaped this phenomenon in both Vienna and Japan. Drawing on theatre studies, art sociology and comparative cultural studies, the analyses cover post-war performances at the Volksoper and Theater an der Wien, Vereinigte Buhnen Wien productions ranging from Elisabeth to I Am From Austria, and their adaptations by the Takarazuka Revue and Th in Japan, as well as subsequent developments such as Marie Antoinette. This publication sheds light on an important facet of global musical theatre today, and will therefore appeal to scholars and anyone with an interest in musical theatre beyond Broadway and the West End.
