About this title

Synopsis

Bloomington, Birdalone Books, 2002. Soft cover, 95 pp. [From Setting the Stage on page 5-6]. After the 1996 publication of Living Dangerously with the Thoughts on Life and Art, I did not intend to revisit its subject matter, at least in print. During the past four years, however, I have been increasingly drawn to altering this non-intention. I have wanted to expand some of its material, such as the thought of the benevolence of the universe, and in this book I substitute the more explicit word "macrocosm" for "universe." The macrocosm is the only completeness. Everything that physically exists, both in our universe and in universes of which man has no knowledge, is part of the macrocosm.In addition, I have increasingly wanted to address other concepts, such as "dualities" organisms, thoughts, objects, and acts that are linked either internally or externally (see Discussion Two). Furthermore, I have wanted to provide concrete examples that illustrate how readers of the book might tangibly apply its contents to their music making. In the present book, I have chosen to present Discussions and related Exercises that address overall themes, and lesser concepts that apply to sundry technical, mental and spiritual aspects of music making. The Discussions are in the form of thoughts, and the related Exercises, written by noted American composer Normand Lockwood (b. 1906), are in the form of concentrated experiences.

"Each time we return to this perfectly wonderful bi-level shop we are impressed by its collection, particularly strong in mystery, cookbooks, travel and general fiction. The books here, we believe, are a true bargain and the quality of the collection is quite high." David S. and Susan Siegel in The Used Book Lover's Guide to the Mid-Atlantic States
