Great Liszt Book
Franz Liszt's place as the greatest pianist of the 19th century, and of the towering composers of all time is secure. A significant number of Liszt's compositions in this book are transcriptions. The compositions are as follows: 1) Ethmals, from Weihnachtsbaum: A set of 12 pieces under the the title "Christmas Tree". They are for the most part easy to play. Some of the set contains the ...

Great vintage Trek set
I first saw these in high school in the early 70's. Several years later I was able to get a re-issue of them. Wonderful for fans of the Classic Trek series. Each sheet unfolds into a long rectangular sheet, showing the layout of each deck from top to bottom. Franz Joseph has had to interpolate many areas, as the show as not always consistent in how it portrayed the layout of the ship. For ...

Reprint of a seminal work in Trek lore
Yes, this is definitely a paperback reprint of that legendary Tech Manual (note the "Star Trek 40" anniversary logo.) About the copy you own, I know you really don't mean "hard cover" as it was in a leatherette binder that, behind the sales rack card on the front, had STAR FLEET TECHNICAL MANUAL stamped in gold in that Microgramma font Franz Joseph established as part of the Trek universe to this ...
The Complete Piano Sonatas, Vol. 1

Excellent edition from Alfred
This edition, edited by the great Maurice Hinson, is a must for every pianist. First, it is essentially an Urtext, but it does have performance suggestions that are clearly shown to not be part of Haydn's original. Second, and probably to be the most prized, is that it is edited by Maurice Hinson. His suggestions are outstanding. While ordinarily, I would not touch an Alfred edition for ...

might be good for older intermediate students
As the publisher promises, this publication presents musica oscura. There are no Consolations, Liebestraums, or Hungarian Rhapsodies. However, it might be an exaggeration to call these pieces masterpieces. They are nice, but nothing extraordinary. Be careful who you buy this book for. Elementary children are likely to turn up their noses at the lushy pieces which comprise most of the ...

Franz Anton Mesmer
Holmes Pub Grou Llc
, 1997
Very interesting book- pretty short though
This book or pamphlet describes the circumstances surrounding the discoveries of Mesmer. It is interesting reading, in that it gives a brief overview of the findings of someone that used a scientific approach to independently arrive at conclusions that coincide with Eatern philosophy. It is enough to wet my apetite for more information about Anton Mesmer.

This book changed my life
I picked up a copy of this book in Mendocino, CA just after I graduated from college and was trying to figure out what to do with my life. For those of you who are somewhat introverted, academic, or artistic, you may find that his book changes your view and helps begin the process of what Jung (and now other therapists) call the "individuation" process, or normal unfolding of human life. I ended ...
Complete Chamber Music for Strings

Franz Schubert,
Eusibius Manduczewski
Peter Smith Pub Inc
, 1978
Indispensible for any chamber music lover
All of Schubert's great chamber works are here except for the Trout Quintet. Of particular note are the Cello Quintet, the "Death and the Maiden" quartet and the "Rosamunde" a minor quartet. As with all of Dover's scores, a great price. At Amazon it's a better price even than buying it at the local music store with a teacher discount.

more a diary than an narrative story
Worth reading if you are eager to learn of accounts from various sorts of the Great Army's soldiers: this book provides interesting inputs and backgrounds on the bavarian army that sided Napoleon during many years against Austria. However, the reading may be difficult for the vast public to whom I recommend to start reading the memoirs of soldiers Bourgogne, Coignet, Tirion, etc. who ...
