Historia y evolución de estos instrumentos.

Metallica is the most successful hard-rock band of all time, having sold more than one hundred million albums worldwide. Receiving unique, unfettered access, acclaimed filmmakers Joe Berlinger and Bruce Sinofsky followed Metallica over two and a half years as they faced monumental personal and professional challenges that threatened to destroy the band just as they returned to the studio to record their first album in four years. Berlinger's book about the experience reveals the stories behind the documentary "Some Kind of Monster, " capturing the energy, uncertainty, and ultimate triumph of both the filming and Metallica's bid for survival. It weaves the on-screen stories together with what happened off-screen, revealing intimate details of the band's struggle amid personnel changes, addiction, and controversy. In part because Berlinger was one of the only witnesses to the intensive group-therapy sessions and numerous band meetings, his account of his experience filming the band is the most honest and deeply probing book about Metallica---or any rock band---ever written. This is the book both Metallica and film fans have dreamed of---a stark and honest look at one of rock's most important bands through the eyes of one of the most provocative documentary filmmakers working today.

No tengas miedo, este libro no muerde. Yo mismo te llevaré de la mano por las sendas de este nuevo lenguaje denominado la música. Es como cualquier otra lengua extranjera: uno comienza por lo básico, agrega unas pocas reglas mas aqui y alli, y en poco tiempo entiende terminos e ideas que hasta pocos dias antes hubieran parecido incoherentes."Varios fragmentos musicales se utilizan para ilustrar los diferentes temas, especialmente en la seccion mas avanzada que se ocupa de los conceptos de armonia. Escrito de una manera amigable, El Lenguaje de la Musica, Al Descubierto presenta una completa introduccion a la teoria de la musica que no se pasa por alto ninguno de los temas fundamentales. Este libro podria ser una herramienta util para los entusiastas de la musica que estan curiosos para investigar ciertos conceptos asi como un recurso util para el profesor de musica."Jorge Variego (Marzo / abril de 2014) de Fanfare Magazine.
