MESSIAEN<br />

Shawnee Press (Chester, NY, <strong>2009</strong>)<br />

The author (1932-2000) was a lecturer at Oxford, a<br />

composer, and a pianist who recorded a number of<br />

Messiaen’s works and gave the UK premiere of one of<br />

his pieces. This edition has been updated by Dr.<br />

Caroline Rae to include works composed by Messiaen<br />

between 1989 and his death in 1992. This<br />

comprehensive guide to Messiaen’s music will be<br />

invaluable to students and connoisseurs of Messiaen.<br />

Numerous musical examples, a chronological list of<br />

works, a bibliography and a list of bird names are<br />

included in this edition. This volume is not a<br />

biography of the man, but rather an in-depth study of<br />

his music, newly revised to celebrate the centenary of<br />

Messiaen’s birth. 248 p.<br />

FOLK MUSIC IN BARTOK’S<br />

COMPOSITIONS<br />

G. Henle Verlag (Munich, Germany, <strong>2009</strong>)<br />

Folksong arrangements hold a significant place in Bela<br />

Bartok’s oeuvre. More than a third of his compositions<br />

are folksong arrangements or contain movements built<br />

on folk music material. Moreover, the genre is not<br />

confined to certain style periods, it is present<br />

throughout Bartok’s career. This catalog brings<br />

together all the folk melodies that appear in Bartok’s<br />

compositions. They were selected from the documents<br />

of his ethnomusicological work, from the music books<br />

used in his collecting trips, from the master sheets<br />

containing his notations from phonograph recordings,<br />

and from his published collections. All the data<br />

pertaining to the original performances of the<br />

melodies including the singers’ or performers’ name,<br />

age, the place and time the song or instrumental piece<br />

was recorded can be found in the commentaries<br />

accompanying the melodies in the catalog. The<br />

accompanying CD contains all available surviving<br />

original recordings of the melodies. Hardcover, 242 p.<br />

Celebrating the 40th Anniversary of the<br />

Woodstock Festival<br />

Backbeat Books (<strong>New</strong> York, NY, <strong>2009</strong>)<br />

In the turbulent sixties, the Woodstock Festival and<br />

the Generation that came from that event were a<br />

manifestation of the desire to create a free, loving and<br />

just world. Elliott Landy has his finger on the pulse of<br />

the Woodstock generation. He was there before the<br />

famous festival, hanging out with Dylan and “The<br />

Band,” was the photographer of record at the festival<br />

itself, and still lives in Woodstock today. In this edition<br />

of “Woodstock Vision,” Landy captures and preserves<br />

the true vision and pure essence of the festival - what<br />

it was like to be part of the sixties, sharing the spirit of<br />

unlimited hope, optimism, and belief that the world<br />

can be made better through peace and love. The book<br />

affectionately chronicles what it was like to be at the<br />

Woodstock Festival and to be a part of the spirit of its<br />

generation. Hardcover, 224 p.<br />

GETTING GREAT SOUNDS:<br />

THE MICROPHONE BOOK<br />

Course Technology PTR (Milwaukee, WI, <strong>2009</strong>)<br />

How to choose and use microphones was once a skill<br />

passed down from senior sound engineers to their<br />

assistants as they would listen and learn by<br />

observation. Today, few large studios have assistant<br />

engineers, and an overwhelming number of studios<br />

are operated by their owners who are self-taught and<br />

<strong>New</strong><br />

do not have the benefit of the big studio tutelage.<br />

“Getting Great Sounds: The Microphone Book”<br />

imparts these microphone tips and tricks of the pros<br />

to make them available to any sound engineer or<br />

home studio enthusiast. It explains aspects of all<br />

kinds of microphones, how they work, and how to<br />

use them in session recording. The conversational<br />

narrative style presents technical aspects in an easyto-understand,<br />

humorous fashion, based on the reallife<br />

experiences of its author, a well-known recording<br />

engineer. Paper, 308 p.<br />
