The Complete Songs of Hugo Wolf gathers together for the first time every poem Wolf set to music. Alongside the original German texts are translations by leading Lieder expert Richard Stokes, who also provides illuminating commentary. The 36 poets set by Wolf are each given their own chapter: a brief essay on the poet is followed by a note on Wolfs connection with the writer, extracts from letters that throw light on the Songs and convey his mood at the time of composition, and the texts and translations. Short biographies of all Wolfs correspondents flesh out the extraordinary life of this genius. This will be an indispensable volume for all lovers of Lieder.

All the singles, all the albums, all the tours, all the TV specials and movies... all the ABBA! For four decades ABBA - the combined talents of Agnetha Faltskog, Bjorn Ulvaeus, Benny Andersson and Anni-Frid Lyngstad - has been a global music phenomenon, clocking up record sales of over 360 million. Unquestionably one of the most respected and recognisable brands in pop, Scandinavias all-conquering musical export actually remained together for only ten years but the groups influence resonates as much today as it did in the 1970s. Thanks to the global success of the musical Mamma Mia!, ABBAs hit songs are cherished by millions of new admirers, but it is the original recordings which set the bench-mark for 20th century pop. The beautiful, cascading melodies and unmistakable harmonies of Dancing Queen, SOS, Take a Chance on Me and The Winner Takes It All have a unique power to inspire passion and devotion in equal measure. For the very first time The Complete ABBA compiles all of the Swedish supergroups singles, albums, TV specials, tours and movies. Beginning with their 1972 debut single People Need Love, the book chronicles the bands incredible story right through to Bjorn and Bennys triumphant Thank You for the Music tribute concert held in London in 2009, and beyond, to 2012, the bands 40th anniversary. This is all the ABBA youll ever need!

The music that would come to be known as hip-hop was born at a party in the Bronx in the summer of 1973. Now, fifty years later, its the most popular music genre in America. Just as jazz did in the first half of the twentieth century, hip-hop and its groundbreaking DJs and artistsnearly all of them people of colour from some of Americas most overlooked communitiespushed the boundaries of music to new frontiers, while transfixing the countrys youth and reshaping fashion, art, and even language.And yet, the stories of many hip-hop pioneers and their individual contributions in the pre-Internet days of mixtapes and word of mouth are rarely heardand some are at risk of being lost forever. Now, in The Come Up, the New York Times bestselling author Jonathan Abrams offers the most comprehensive account so far of hip-hops rise, a multi-decade chronicle told in the voices of the people who made it happen.In more than three hundred interviews conducted over three years, Abrams has captured the stories of the DJs, executives, producers, and artists who both witnessed and themselves forged the history of hip-hop. Masterfully combining these voices into a seamless symphonic narrative, Abrams traces how the genre grew out of the resourcefulness of a neglected population in the South Bronx, and from there how it flowed into New York Citys other boroughs, and beyondfrom electrifying live gatherings, then on to radio and vinyl, below to the Mason-Dixon Line, west to Los Angeles through gangster rap and G-funk, and then across generations.Abrams has on record Grandmaster Caz detailing hip-hops infancy, Edward "Duke Bootee" Fletcher describing the origins of "The Message," DMC narrating his role in introducing hip-hop to the mainstream, Ice Cube recounting N.W.As breakthrough and breakup, Kool Moe Dee recalling his Grammys boycott, and countless more key players. Throughout, Abrams conveys with singular vividness the drive, the stakes, and the relentless creativity that ignited one of the greatest revolutions in modern music.The Come Up is an exhilarating behind-the-scenes account of how hip-hop came to rule the worldand an essential contribution to music history.

This book is about our device-oriented society, in which most of the population (including children) is online during a significant part of their lives. It relates technically the why our society should debate the way we deliver and consume information. Most of us are creating a sense of reality based on bubbles of closed-loop information and relationships. As approximately 95% of users of search engines stop their search on the first page presented, this page is (mostly) a mix of the completely standardized page (the same everybody who types a keyword receives) with a bit of personalization. Similar behavior takes place on social media, which is more loop-centered in the same groups, friends, and related content. These behaviors generate an ego-echo system that, to satisfy consumers, returns them to what they request, creating a semi-autistic process, in which new knowledge is not necessarily added. The process creates an instantaneous series of point and search activities (one search lead to the next), resulting in an unstructured learning process based on previous behavior. In this sense, this booklet aims to create a debate to improve knowledge creation and learning in the digital world, as humankind has created a spectacular knowledge base that is being improved to develop our societies.
