The Gateway to Never: John Grimes, Book 18 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 284min
The air was alive with the vicious buzzing of the stun-guns. The smuggler was frozen in his squatting posture, paralyzed, unable to stir so much as a finger. But the robot moved. Its drive unit hammered shockingly and un-rhythmically and it shot straight upwards. Beams from hastily switched on police searchlights swept the sky like the antennae of disturbed insects - then caught it, held it, a tiny bright star in a firmament that had never known any stars. At least four machine rifles were hammering, and an incandescent tracer arched upwards with deceptive slowness. The lieutenant had drawn his laser pistol and the purple beam slashed across the darkness, power-wasting and desperate. Some hapless night-flying creature caught by the sword of lethal light exploded smokily. It might have the machine rifles that found their mark, it might have been the laser pistol. Nobody ever knew. But the broken beat of the inertial drive ceased abruptly and the robot was falling, faster and faster…"Down!" shouted somebody. "Get down!" ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Aaron Abano.

Wishing You the Best of Everything Always , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 29min
Wishing You the Best of Everything Always is a collection of poems by Beverly West Schmidt, inspired by the natural beauty and poetry of all living things. It also includes poems inspired by the author's love of family. Here are some excerpts from a few of her poems: "Perfect Palette" "Amazingly graceful light plays shadow tag with sleepy fog and billowy clouds - awakening autumn's hillside hues...." "Maternal Music" "Softly sweeping, rhythmically sweeping - maternal music continuing - in springtime, in sunshine - in all times. No colorful kerchief needed - flowers provide ample colors and fragrances - maternal memories and dove-soft love - for countless generations to come." "Fox Trot Envy" "She dances divinely on silvered snow, her ebony-tipped auburn coat - sleek in frigid air. Oh, to be so slender. Oh, to be so agile. Oh, to have such shimmering hair - Oh, never-mind. I much prefer my winter den to hers." "As We Journey On" "Let's be sunrise - not sunset. Let's be brightness rising - not dimness declining. Let's be sunrays rosy with joyfulness and awakening. Let's be prisms of infinite inspiration and kaleidoscope colors. Let's be stillness and peace embracing all." ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Beverly West Schmidt.

Blue Train
OVERVIEW This all time, historic, jazz classic is considered by many to be Coltrane's first ''true'' solo album, as it is the first he recorded featuring musicians and songs entirely of his choosing. All of the compositions were written by Coltrane, except for I'm Old Fashioned'', a Jerome Kern / Johnny Mercer Standard. The title track is a long, rhythmically variegated blues with a brooding minor theme that gradually shifts to the major key during Coltrane's first chorus. ''Locomotion'' is also- Shop: odax

Sinfonien
Bringing together all seven of Schubert's completed symphonies, as well as the much-loved B minor 'Unfinished', this set charts the development of Schubert's voice as a symphonist. His first six symphonies were composed between 1813 and 1818 for the orchestra at the religious school that he attended in Vienna. Although they could be considered to be apprentice works, and are clearly influenced by Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven, and -- in the case of the Sixth Symphony -- Rossini, they are remarkable achievements for such a young composer, and the listener can hear some of the hallmarks of Schubert's more forward-looking, romantic style, such as a bolder and richer harmonic language, beginning to emerge.After a serious illness in 1822, from which he only partially recovered, Schubert composed his final symphonic masterpieces, the 'Unfinished' (1822) and the 'Great' (1825--6). From the haunting slow introduction and the extraordinary sense of pathos of the 'Unfinished' to the joyful and rhythmically vital 'Great' symphony, both works showcase Schubert the symphonist at the peak of his powers and are some of the most popular and enduring pieces in the orchestral canon.Schubert's complete symphonies are performed here by the legendary Staatskapelle Dresden under the inspired direction of celebrated conductor Herbert Blomstedt, praised by Gramophone for his 'incomparably refined sensitivity and canny interpretative prowess'.Other information:- Recordings made between 1978 and 1981 at the Lukaskirche in Dresden.- "Probably the finest, most consistent Schubert cycles available" (David Hurwitz, Classicstoday.com, performance: 10).- A superb recording of Schubert's symphonies by the Staatskapelle Dresden, in full golden glory, conducted by Herbert Blomstedt, one of the most respected and revered conductors alive.- A gem from the Berlin Classics catalogue, recorded between 1978 and 1981 in the famous acoustics of the Lukaskirche in Dresden, now available on Brilliant Classics!- Contains booklet notes on the symphonies.- Shop: odax

Askelad and the Seven Silver Ducks
OboeBass! The Vecchione/Erdahl Duo has created their own unique genre of 'chamber music of a different color' for oboe/English horn and double bass. Minnesota Public Radio's Steve Staruch calls them"pioneers in the classical music business. Forging ahead with a new chamber music combination that has them performing recently commissioned works, putting together their own music series in Lakeville, and giving concerts in out of the way places. Who would have guessed that an Oboe/Bass duo combination would sound so....well, so right!" The music of Margi Griebling-Haigh has been characterized as haunting, charismatic, yearning, wistful, lyrical, colorful, and insoucient! She is concerned with conveying emotions and moods, but firmly believes in the powers of memorable melodies and rhythms and strong formal structure. While her music is sometimes technically challenging and rhythmically tricky, consideration for the comfort and enjoyment of performers and audience members alike is of great importance. Simply put, her music is effective and charming. Margi is also an oboist, married to a bassist, Scott Haigh, First Assistant Principal Bass of the Cleveland Orchestra. Her familiarity of the possibilities of both instruments make her uniquely qualified as a composer of oboe/bass duos! Humor is also an important hallmark of her style. She enjoyed using some of the typecast qualities of oboe and bass in this piece, where the oboe portrays the ducks, and the bass represents the trolls. She also illustrated this book, recycling images of the performers and her husband and daughter to portray the various characters in the book. 'Askelad' was commissioned by OboeBass! With the support of a Jerome Composers Commissioning Project Grant from the American Composers Forum.- Shop: odax

Russian-born Victor Babin (1908 - 1972) is best known in the United States as a duo-pianist with wife Vitya Vronsky, and as Director of the Cleveland Institute of Music from 1961 - 1972. His style is distinctly post-romantic - conservative but colorful. The Hillandale Waltzes for clarinet and piano (1947) was composed toward the end of World War II. The waltzes are based on a theme of the German composer Johann Nepomuk Hummel (1778-1837), which he used in his Introduction, Theme and Variations for oboe and piano. A series of eight waltz variations, some of which test the technical prowess of the clarinetist, follow the landler-like theme. The composition was dedicated to Anne Archbold, who kindly provided housing for the Babins in the Hillandale Mansion in Washington D.C., near Georgetown University, shortly after their immigration to the United States. Viennese-born composer Joseph Horovitz (1926 - ) emigrated to England in 1938 where he studied music at New College, Oxford. He was an official lecturer in music appreciation to the Forces and gave piano recitals in army camps. After completing his BMus and MA degrees, he studied composition with Gordon Jacob at the Royal College of Music and with Nadia Boulanger in Paris. He has won numerous prestigious composition awards throughout his long career. The Sonatina for clarinet and piano was composed in 1981 at the request of Gervase de Peyer and Gwenneth Pryor. It is light-hearted and utilizes the traditional three-movement division. The first movement concentrates on the middle register of the clarinet, mainly lyrical against a rippling piano background, and is in classical sonata form. The second movement is an A-B-A song structure employing some of the lowest notes of the wind instrument in a long cantilena over a slow chordal accompaniment. A loose rondo form is used for the finale. It alternates two themes in equal proportions, exploiting the upper register of the clarinet. The harmonic idiom of the whole work is tonal and is melodically and rhythmically influenced by jazz and other popular music. Arthur Benjamin (1893 - 1960) was Australian by birth before moving to London as a young man, where he studied composition and piano. He was active in the growing musical life of the time, giving many performances of new works, including his own. During the 1940's his music was inspired by the music of Caribbean natives. Le Tombeau de Ravel is a set of six contrasting Valse-Caprices framed by an introduction and a finale. This work is loosely modeled after Ravel's Valses nobles et sentimentales which, in urn, were inspired by two sets of waltzes by Schubert. The composition evokes the sound world of Ravel and the general atmosphere of French music of the time, including hints of the salons, echoes of the café-concert and images which seem to leap from Toulouse-Lautrec's illustrations. American composer, Sy Brandon (1945 - ), was recently commissioned by the Arizona Centennial Commission to compose a band composition to celebrate Arizona's 100th anniversary of statehood. Other first prize awards include WITF-FM's 25th Anniversary Composition Contest, and Franklin and Marshall College's Wind Ensemble Composition Contest. The Czech National Symphony Orchestra, the Philharmonia Bulgarica, and the Kiev Philharmonic have recorded his music. Two compositions of his are heard on this CD. Badinerie, composed in 2001, is a rhythmic exciting piece in a modal style. The piece is in a large ABA form. The A sections contain much syncopation and counterpoint. The B section has a more sustained clarinet part over an ostinato in the piano. Die Fledermaus Fantasy, which closes this CD, is modeled after Sarasate's 'Carmen Fantasy'. It uses themes from the opera and expands upon them in order to show off the solo instrument. The material used comes from the overture along with Rosalinde's Csardas inserted in the middle. Carlos Guastavino (1912 - 2000) was born in Santa Fe, Argentina. He was one of the foremost Argentine composers of the 20th century. His reputation was based almost entirely on his songs, and Guastavino has sometimes been called "the Schubert of the Pampas." His style, always tonal and lusciously romantic, is fully based on Argentine folk music. Tonada y Cueca (1965) is comprised of two contrasting pieces exploring rhythms from Northwestern Argentina. A Tonada is defined as a Latin American folk song of the sentimental type or as a work song that accompanies such diverse tasks as milking, farming, maize milling, and harvesting. The Cueca, derived from the Peruvian 'Zamacueca', is a lively couple's dance of courtship and is also the national dance of Chile.- Shop: odax
