Connaissez-vous les sacrements qui font la foi chrétienne ? Savez-vous la façon dont ils sont vécus au quotidien ? Comprenez-vous ce qu'ils dévoilent de Jésus-Christ ?Ce recueil de poésie n'ambitionne pas de vous démontrer l'existence de Dieu par A plus B, il présente son visage à chacun de ceux qui voudront bien le trouver.

This series of music for pipa with string quartet is part of the classical concerts program.Stringed instruments form the backbone of the Western classical symphony orchestra. The Eastern string instrument Pipa developed into a leading solo instrument as early as the Tang dynasty (618 - 709) in the East. In this set of classical concert programs, all pieces maintain the original and natural acoustic sound source of unplugged string instruments. It enables the encounter of different acoustic properties, different expressions of sound, and sound aesthetics that have developed over time in different regions. This Program lets old & new string instruments offer us an unforgettable musical experience _ from the fresh energy of the morning to the poetry of the sunset - from a silk bamboo tea house to a passionate dance in the desert of the Wild West - from the search for one's own identity to the singing of swinging hearts - from pearls falling on to a jade plate to the gallop of black horses... Each piece opens up a new perspective.
Questa collana nasce da appunti ed esercizi raccolti ed elaborati in quaranta anni di insegnamento del flauto dolce. L'idea nasce dalla necessità di risolvere sistematicamente i problemi tecnici incontrati durante lo studio di questo strumento.In mancanza di una moderna letteratura didattica mi sono impegnato a sviluppare una collana che, oltre ad affrontare l'aspetto tecnico strumentale, proponesse una metodologia interpretativa nell'esecuzione del repertorio barocco.Dopo anni in cui questa metodica è stata collaudata dai miei stessi allievi ho deciso, sperando di fare cosa gradita, di dare questi volumi in stampa per condividerli con gli appassionati di musica barocca e del flauto dolce, siano essi professionisti o dilettanti.
¿Alois Riegl was an Austrian art historian, and is considered a member of the Vienna School of Art History. He was one of the major figures in the establishment of art history as a self-sufficient academic discipline, and one of the most influential practitioners of formalism. In 1883 Riegl wrote his dissertation on the Romanesque Church of St. Jacob, Regensburg (manuscript lost). He joined the staff of the Austrian Museum of Decorative Arts (Institut für Österreichische Geschichtsforchung) and began writing his Habilitation, Die Mittelalterliche Kalenderillustration, in 1889, which examined the Hellenistic tradition in medieval calendar manuscripts. In 1886 he began curatorial training in the Austrian Museum of Art and Industry, succeeding another Thausing student, Franz Wickhoff, in 1887 working for the next ten years as curator of textiles at the Austrian museum. Riegl's first two books, Altorientalische Teppiche and Stilfragen: Grundlegungen zu einer Geschichte der Ornamentik, 1891 and 1893 respectively, follow from his work in the museum. Even in these first books, his interest in theory as well as an interdisciplinary view of art history was evident. Stilfragen gained Riegl an extraordinarius position at the University of Vienna in 1894. He continued his interest in common art objects-what were then considered minor arts-in his next book, Volkskunst, Hausfleiss und Hausindustrie, 1894, which employed economic theory in constructing their history. In 1894 and 1895 he began lecturing on baroque art, a period still largely viewed as decadent, ushering in (together with the work of Cornelius Gurlitt) a new evaluation of the stylistic period. At Vienna, he and Wickhoff formed what came to be known as the (first) Vienna school of art historical method. For more, see The Dictionary of Art Historians, arthistorians.info.

"Every day, in dance studios all across America, millions of little girls line up at the barre and take ballet class. Ballet is for girls what football is for boys; while few go on to professional careers, their time in the studio shapes their lives, instilling lessons about gender, power, the value of their bodies and minds, and their place in the world both in and outside of dance. In Turning Pointe, journalist Chloe Angyal takes readers into the exclusive and complicated world of ballet, from the suburban studios where young dancers learn the artform, to the elite summer training programs, to ballet's professional world. She shares the love of ballet that so many dancers feel while also grappling with its shortcomings: the power and tyranny of male choreographers, the impossible standards of beauty, and the racism that pervades ballet. Drawing on interviews with over 80 dancers, students, teachers, and health care professionals, Turning Pointe offers an unprecedented window into the joys and pain of ballet. As Angyal makes clear, if ballet is going to survive in the twenty-first century, if it is going to chart a path into a more socially just future, this reckoning is essential"--
