Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Set against the hills, fog, and contradictions of San Francisco, Frisco Fairytales movesthrough the neighborhoods and generations of a city in perpetual tension. A "utopia"and a hellscape, sometimes on the same block. The stories explore class andgentrification, street-level crime and consequence, love and loyalty, and the particularache of nostalgia for a city that keeps changing beneath your feet. Characters rangefrom a young woman navigating a drug empire and a toxic ex, to a boy who believes hewas born on the moon; from teenagers on prom night to a meditation on the weight ofgrief. Taken together, the stories form a vivid, funny, heartbreaking portrait of what itmeans to grow up as a local in one of the world's most mythologized cities.The title itself is a provocation. The book's preface opens with the history of thenickname, "Frisco", and a reminder of the often segregated cultures within the city. Thecollection is dedicated, in part, to the memory of the Sucka Free City itself.From the Preface: This collection of short stories is about what it means to grow up in a utopia, hellon earth, and the cross streets in between. While these "fairytales" are not meant foryoung children, my hope is that a copy will land in the hands of some kids in the citywho can relate, reflect, and laugh at these stories. The City offers its youth manypaths and traps. As locals, we dance with rage through the beauty and hypocrisy. Ifyou are not from San Francisco, it's fine; I am sure you will still understand 95% ofthe concepts in this book. I have also added a glossary for all the Bay slang I put touse.Before we begin, I would like to remind you, the reader, that Frisco is located onsacred soil. It also happened to go from being one of the cheapest major cities in theU.S. to one of the most expensive in the world. Regardless of time period oreconomic status, this land is magical, and it is our responsibility to give it the respectand honor that it deserves. The way that we interact with the city demonstrates therespect we pay to it. Simply owning, renting, or inheriting property here is notenough to claim it or treat it as you please. The city might just slap you back. I would also like to be clear; We call it Frisco, but many, even locals, don't.Everyone from the city agrees 'San Fran' is the tourist nickname, but the localbourgeoisie class always hated 'Frisco' more. In 1953, a journalist and author by thename of Herb Caen wrote a book titled Don't Call It Frisco. He argued, "Frisco showsdisrespect to a city that is now big and proper and respectable." In other words, itwas the nickname of the poor. Caen grew up in Sacramento in the 1920s, and movedto Nob Hill for a job at the Chronicle in the late 1930s. Dude wasn't even from thecity. In 1995, one year after I was born, and two years before he died, Caen wrote afinal piece for the Chronicle, again titled "Don't Call it Frisco." Caen's workinfluenced thousands, at least from the north side of the city, to loathe the term.Calling the city Frisco, or not, to this day is a reflection of your relationship to theculture, the people, and the land. This nickname, and the controversy surrounding it, exemplifies the themes of class, romance, and rebellion in these stories. Regardless ofthe attempts to remove the city's working class nickname, it will be Frisco forever, and we are on Ohlone land. Fiction short stories. While this book is not meant for children, it is manageable for most teenagers. Contains some coarse language and adult themes.

Softcover. Condition: New. Umfassende, systematische Darstellung aller relevanten Spieltechniken der Neuen Musik auf dem Saxophon. Leicht verständliche Erläuterung der klanglichen Besonderheiten und didaktische Tipps zum Ausprobieren. (englisch/deutsch) 188 S. - 29,0 x 21,0cm kart. In den letzten Jahren haben sich zwar verschiedene Publikationen den erweiterten Spieltechniken der Holzblasinstrumente im Bereich der Neuen Musik gewidmet. Doch wurden immer wieder die fehlende Systematik, Unvollständigkeit und vor allem der fehlende Praxisbezug bemängelt. Nach dem großen Erfolg der rasch zu Standardwerken aufgestiegenen Bücher über die Spieltechnik der Oboe und der Flöte legt nun ein renommiertes Autorenteam die entsprechende Publikation über das Saxophon vor. Auch dieses Buch richtet sich sowohl an Interpreten als auch an Komponisten. Daher liegt es nahe, dass sich hierfür zwei Insider ihres jeweiligen Metiers gefunden haben der Saxophonist Marcus Weiss und der Komponist Giorgio Netti. Die wichtigsten spiel-, griff- und klangtechnischen Möglichkeiten des Sopran-, Alt-, Tenor- und Baritonsaxophons werden in systematischer Form erläutert. Anhand von instruktiven Beispielen und Übe-Anleitungen werden diese Techniken belegt, gleichzeitig informieren sie auch über die Besonderheiten der Notation. Anhand der Links auf die im Internet speziell für dieses Buch zusammengestellten Klangbeispiele können die eigenen Ergebnisse mit der Einspielung durch den Autor Marcus Weiss verglichen werden. Das Buch ist ein unverzichtbares, praxisorientiertes Arbeitsmittel für den Interpreten und Pädagogen wie auch für den Komponisten.…
