From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Anathem, Reamde, and Cryptonomicon comes an exciting and thought-provoking science fiction epic—a grand story of annihilation and survival spanning five thousand years.What would happen if the world were ending?A catastrophic event renders the earth a ticking time bomb. In a feverish race against the inevitable, nations around the globe band together to devise an ambitious plan to ensure the survival of humanity far beyond our atmosphere, in outer space.But the complexities and unpredictability of human nature coupled with unforeseen challenges and dangers threaten the intrepid pioneers, until only a handful of survivors remain . . .Five thousand years later, their progeny—seven distinct races now three billion strong—embark on yet another audacious journey into the unknown . . . to an alien world utterly transformed by cataclysm and time: Earth.A writer of dazzling genius and imaginative vision, Neal Stephenson combines science, philosophy, technology, psychology, and literature in a magnificent work of speculative fiction that offers a portrait of a future that is both extraordinary and eerily recognizable. As he did in Anathem, Cryptonomicon, the Baroque Cycle, and Reamde, Stephenson explores some of our biggest ideas and perplexing challenges in a breathtaking saga that is daring, engrossing, and altogether brilliant.
“Unconventional. . . . Not a garden-variety rock memoir . . . [but] a strange and lovely book about a woman finding and losing herself onstage and off and crafting a complicated creative life when none of the molds quite fit.”—Los Angeles Times Book Review“Engaging and surprisingly intimate.”—Vanity Fair“More than a memoir, though one of the most riveting music biographies ever penned.”—Examiner.comFor many, Kim Gordon, vocalist, bassist, and founding member of Sonic Youth—one of the most influential and successful bands to emerge from the post-punk New York scene—has always represented the epitome of cool. And almost as celebrated as the band’s defiantly dissonant sound was the marriage between Gordon and her then husband, Thurston Moore. When it was announced that the couple was splitting after twenty-seven years of marriage, fans were devastated.In Girl in a Band, this famously reserved superstar speaks candidly about her past and the future. From her childhood in the sunbaked suburbs of Southern California, growing up with a mentally ill sibling, to New York’s downtown art and music scene in the eighties and nineties and the birth of a band that would pave the way for acts like Nirvana, as well as help inspire the Riot Grrl generation, here is an edgy and evocative portrait of a life in art.Exploring the artists, musicians, and writers who influenced her, and the relationship that defined her life for so long, Girl in a Band is filled with the sights and sounds of a pre-Internet world and is a deeply personal portrait of a woman who has become an icon.

National Best Seller From the National Book Award-winning author of Just Kids: an unforgettable odyssey of a legendary artist, told through the prism of the cafés and haunts she has worked in around the world. It is a book Patti Smith has described as "a roadmap to my life." M Train begins in the tiny Greenwich Village café where Smith goes every morning for black coffee, ruminates on the world as it is and the world as it was, and writes in her notebook. Through prose that shifts fluidly between dreams and reality, past and present, and across a landscape of creative aspirations and inspirations, we travel to Frida Kahlo's Casa Azul in Mexico; to a meeting of an Arctic explorer's society in Berlin; to a ramshackle seaside bungalow in New York's Far Rockaway that Smith acquires just before Hurricane Sandy hits; and to the graves of Genet, Plath, Rimbaud, and Mishima. Woven throughout are reflections on the writer's craft and on artistic creation. Here, too, are singular memories of Smith's life in Michigan and the irremediable loss of her husband, Fred Sonic Smith. Braiding despair with hope and consolation, illustrated with her signature Polaroids, M Train is a meditation on travel, detective shows, literature, and coffee. It is a powerful, deeply moving book by one of the most remarkable multiplatform artists at work today.
Von vielen Pianisten sehnsüchtig erwartet - ein vierter Urtext-Band mit einer Auswahl aus dem umfangreichen Sonatenschaffen Domenico Scarlattis! Während sich in den drei schon vorliegenden Sammlungen HN 395, 451 und 476 viel und selten Gespieltes in etwa die Waage halten, und somit Entdecker ganz auf ihre Kosten kommen, legen wir mit Band IV ein "best of Scarlatti" vor. Trotz der legendären Quellen-Reinschriften aus Venedig und Parma ist die Scarlatti-Überlieferung verzwickt und variantenreich, ein Umstand, dem wir mit einem Fußnoten-Apparat Rechnung tragen. Auch diese viel gespielten Sonaten laden somit zu überraschenden Neu-Entdeckungen ein. Scarlatti Band IV - ein Prachtexemplar!

Wenige Produktdesigns sind so haltbar wie die von Dieter Rams. Nahezu alles was der einflussreichste Designer des 20. Jahrhunderts entworfen hat, gilt heute als Klassiker. Die überarbeitete Neuauflage von Weniger, aber besser zeigt einmal mehr warum Dieter Rams Designverständnis auch in Zukunft nicht an Aktualität verlieren wird.Die Vorstellungen davon, was gutes Design kann, soll und muss, ändern sich stetig mit technischen Möglichkeiten und kulturellen Entwicklungen. Dieter Rams zehn Thesen zum Design befürworten puristisches, beinahe unmerkliches Design und gelten deshalb in Lehre und Praxis als zeitlose Grundüberlegungen: Gutes Design ist innovativ. Gutes Design macht ein Produkt verständlich. Gutes Design ist ästhetisch. Gutes Design macht ein Produkt brauchbar. Gutes Design ist unaufdringlich. Gutes Design ist ehrlich. Gutes Design ist langlebig. Gutes Design ist konsequent bis ins letzte Detail. Gutes Design ist umweltfreundlich. Gutes Design ist so wenig Design wie möglich.Weniger, aber besser hat nicht den Anspruch, eine lückenlose Rams-Werkschau zu sein oder die vollständige Firmengeschichte von Braun zu erzählen. Vielmehr zeigt dieses Buch, welche Ideen, Kriterien und Methoden hinter den großen Produktdesigns von Dieter Rams stehen und wie sich anhand einer sich wandelnden Produktkultur universale Designmaßstäbe ableiten lassen. Aus Dieter Rams Überlegungen zu Ethik und Werten im Design lassen sich klare Strukturen für zukünftiges Gestalten ableiten. Denn eins hat sich über viele Jahre bewiesen: weniger ist einfach besser.
From #1 New York Times bestselling author Sylvia Day comes the first novel in the Crossfire series-a provocative masterstroke of abandon and obsession that redefined the meaning of desire, and became a global phenomenon. Gideon Cross came into my life like lightning in the darkness... He was beautiful and brilliant, jagged and white-hot. I was drawn to him as I'd never been to anything or anyone in my life. I craved his touch like a drug, even knowing it would weaken me. I was flawed and damaged, and he opened those cracks in me so easily... Gideon knew. He had demons of his own. And we would become the mirrors that reflected each other's most private wounds...and desires. The bonds of his love transformed me, even as I prayed that the torment of our pasts didn't tear us apart...
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Includes Elizabeth Strout's never-before-published essay about the origins of The Burgess BoysNAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY The Washington Post • NPR • Good HousekeepingElizabeth Strout "animates the ordinary with an astonishing force," wrote The New Yorker on the publication of her Pulitzer Prize-winning Olive Kitteridge. The San Francisco Chronicle praised Strout's "magnificent gift for humanizing characters." Now the acclaimed author returns with a stunning novel as powerful and moving as any work in contemporary literature. Haunted by the freak accident that killed their father when they were children, Jim and Bob Burgess escaped from their Maine hometown of Shirley Falls for New York City as soon as they possibly could. Jim, a sleek, successful corporate lawyer, has belittled his bighearted brother their whole lives, and Bob, a Legal Aid attorney who idolizes Jim, has always taken it in stride. But their long-standing dynamic is upended when their sister, Susan-the Burgess sibling who stayed behind-urgently calls them home. Her lonely teenage son, Zach, has gotten himself into a world of trouble, and Susan desperately needs their help. And so the Burgess brothers return to the landscape of their childhood, where the long-buried tensions that have shaped and shadowed their relationship begin to surface in unexpected ways that will change them forever. With a rare combination of brilliant storytelling, exquisite prose, and remarkable insight into character, Elizabeth Strout has brought to life two deeply human protagonists whose struggles and triumphs will resonate with readers long after they turn the final page. Tender, tough-minded, loving, and deeply illuminating about the ties that bind us to family and home, The Burgess Boys is Elizabeth Strout's newest and perhaps most astonishing work of literary art.Praise for The Burgess Boys"What truly makes Strout exceptional . . . is the perfect balance she achieves between the tides of story and depths of feeling."-Chicago Tribune"Strout's prose propels the story forward with moments of startlingly poetic clarity."-The New Yorker "Elizabeth Strout's first two books, Abide with Me and Amy and Isabelle, were highly thought of, and her third, Olive Kitteridge, won the Pulitzer Prize in fiction. But The Burgess Boys, her most recent novel, is her best yet."-The Boston Globe

Based on an acclaimed professor's legendary strategy course at Harvard Business School, The Strategist offers a radically new perspective on a leader's most vital role."Are you a strategist?" That's the first question Cynthia Montgomery asks the business owners and senior executives from all over the world who participate in her highly regarded executive education course. It's not a question they anticipate or care much about on opening day. But by the time the program ends, they cannot imagine leading their companies to success without being—and living the role of—a strategist.Over a series of weeks and months, Montgomery puts these accomplished executives through their paces. Using case discussions, after-hours talks, and participants' own strategy dilemmas, she illuminates what strategy is, why it's important, and what it takes to lead the effort. En route, she equips them to confront the most essential question facing every business leader: Does this company truly matter? In doing so, she shows that strategy is not just a tool for outwitting the competition; it is the most powerful means a leader has for shaping a company itself.The Strategist exposes all business leaders—whether they run a global enterprise or a small business—to the invaluable insights Montgomery shares with these privileged executives. By distilling the experiences and insights gleaned in the classroom, Montgomery helps leaders develop the skills and sensibilities they need to become strategists themselves. It is a difficult role, but little else one does as a leader is likely to matter more.

Brilliant, funny, charming, imperious, Diana Vreeland—the fashion editor of Harper's Bazaar and editor-in-chief of Vogue—was a woman whose passion and genius for style helped define the world of high fashion for fifty years. Among her eclectic circle of friends were some of the most renowned and famous figures of the twentieth century—artists and princes, movie stars and international legends, including Chanel, the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, Isak Dinesen, Clark Gable, and Swifty Lazar.Moving from English palaces to the nightclubs of 1930s Paris, the wilds of Wyoming to the exclusive venues of New York high society, D.V. takes readers into this iconic woman's dazzling life, evoking the luxury and brio of an era that encompassed Josephine Baker, England's Queen Mary, Buffalo Bill, and Diaghilev.Vibrant with the vivid, irresistible voice that elevated every tête-à-tête and dinner party, D.V. brings this renowned and uninhibited raconteur alive, whether recalling herself as a young girl, her search for the perfect red, her piquant observations about her world, or her abhorrence for nostalgia. Like her legacy, Vreeland's story, told in her own words, is a classic to be celebrated by both loyal admirers and a new generation of culture mavens and style savants.

Online-Tutorial verfügbar bei Henle Masterclass Wie viele Klaviervirtuosen seiner Zeit träumte auch Robert Schumann davon, sich dem Publikum als Pianist und Komponist zugleich in einem eigenen Klavierkonzert zu präsentieren. Bereits in jungem Alter unternahm er erste Versuche. In den folgenden Jahren fühlte er sich jedoch zunehmend von der Idee einer formal freieren Konzeption angezogen. Aus dem Entwurf einer einsätzigen "Phantasie" entstand schließlich der Kopfsatz des berühmten Werkes, das hiermit erstmals in einer praktischen Urtextausgabe vorgelegt wird. Für den Fingersatz konnte die weltweit gefeierte Pianistin Mitsuko Uchida gewonnen werden. Partitur und Orchestermaterial sind bei Breitkopf & Härtel erschienen.
