The Music of Harry Freedman

The Music of Harry Freedman

Harry Freedman has been an important and respected figure in Canadian music for over half a century, and his productivity as a composer has been both prodigious and eclectic. Born in Poland in 1922 and raised in Winnipeg, Freedman studied at the Royal Conservatory of Music and played English Horn with the Toronto Symphony Orchestra. He resigned in 1970 to become the orchestra's first composer-in-residence, and has created some 175 works in a wide variety of genres including symphonies, concertos, string quartets, operas, ballets, film scores, popular songs, and jazz pieces. In The Music of Harry Freedman, Gail Dixon investigates Freedman's music with a view to illuminating its underlying principles, stylistic development, and means of coherence. Representative works from Freedman's oeuvre have been selected for detailed analysis. The chronological presentation of these works facilitates a clear understanding of Freedman's compositional style in its dramatic evolution from the tentative serial explorations of his early works to the eclectic stylistic spectrum of his later years. The analytic discussion is supplemented by a large number of musical examples, as well as compositional sketches and working notes, some in the composer's own hand. Numerous interviews with Freedman yield additional insights into his approach and perspective. Dixon does a great service to Canadian culture with this analytic study of the music of a celebrated twentieth-century figure.
The Periodic Table

The Periodic Table

The Periodic Table is one of the most recognizable images in science - and in our culture. Its 118 elements make up everything on our planet and in the entire universe. But how many of us actually know how to interpret its distinctive design? And what does its unique arrangement tell us about the behaviour of each element in the world around us? The Periodic Table looks at the fascinating story and surprising history of each of these elements, from the little-known uses of gold in medicine to that of arsenic as a wallpaper dye in the ninteenth-century and the development of the hydrogen bomb. Packed with interesting facts and figures and helpful illustrations, this accessible guide will help the armchair chemist navigate through the different groups of elements - and discover the world afresh.

Stephen Hawking var verdens mest begavede teoretiske fysiker siden Einstein. Han var kanskje vårt største vitenskapelige geni i moderne tid, og som populærvitenskapelig forfatter forklarte han på mesterlig vis vanskelige temaer for vanlige folk. I tillegg var Hawking en ivrig forkjemper for sosiale og politiske saker, som funksjonshemmedes rettigheter. Stephen Hawking på 3 minutter er en rask introduksjon til dette eksepsjonelle geniet. Denne mikroskopiske biografien deler opp Hawkings liv i 3 minutter lange småbiter, som hver serveres som et lett fordøyelig festmåltid. Les boken og få universet servert på sølvfat.
