Description

Edvard Munch; born in 1863; was Norways most popular artist. His brooding and anguished paintings; based on personal grief and obsessions; were instrumental in the development of Expressionism. During his childhood; the death of his parents; his brother and sister; and the mental illness of another sister; were of great influence on his convulsed and tortuous art. In his works; Munch turned again and again to the memory of illness; death and grief. During his career; Munch changed his idiom many times. At first; influenced by Impressionism and Post-impressionism; he turned to a highly personal style and content; increasingly concerned with images of illness and death. In the 1892s; his style developed a lsquo;Synthetist idiom as seen in The Scream (1893) which is regarded as an icon and the portrayal of modern humanitys spiritual and existential anguish. He painted different versions of it. During the 1890s Munch favoured a shallow pictorial space; and used it in his frequently frontal pictures. His work often included the symbolic portrayal of such themes as misery; sickness; and death. and the poses of his figures in many of his portraits were chosen in order to capture their state of mind and psychological condition. It also lends a monumental; static quality to the paintings. In 1892; the Union of Berlin Artists invited Munch to exhibit at its November exhibition. His paintings invoked bitter controversy at the show; and after one week the exhibition closed. In the 1930s and 1940s; the Nazis labeled his work ldquo;degenerate artrdquo;; and removed his works from German museums. This deeply hurt the anti-fascist Munch; who had come to feel Germany was his second homeland. In 1908 Munchs anxiety became acute and he was hospitalized. He returned to Norway in 1909 and died in Oslo in 1944.

The absolute BEST collection of classic blues harmonica songs/tablature that you can find; either in print or on the Internet!By ƒůŽźYuml; ωŬge;ζŷ hearts;☮♭♩♪♫♬♮☯☺♡✈இ Fuzzy Wuzzys Summary:ѾѾѾѾѾ Highly recommended with warm fuzzies!When I purchased this book back in 2004; I was reaching an intermediate level of expertise with playing the blues; but my note bending was still wobbly and inconsistent. It has taken me a few years (and LOTS of practice) to grow into this great treasure chest of classic Chicago-style blues. When I purchased this book in 2004; I could find no other collection of blues harmonica tablature like this either in print or on the Internet. And now; 8 years later; there is STILL no other single collection of blues harp tablature like this to be found anywhere! This books publisher; Hal Leonard; publishes many countless music books and sheet music collections. Some of Hal Leonards books are better than others. This is a really great collection. But it seems that Hal Leonard hardly ever revise their books with later updates and more content; so many of their books remain in a "1st Edition" frozen state forever. And this excellent collection of blues harp tablature is no exception. I just wished that they would publish an expanded updated edition to this 20-year old book.There are 41 classic blues songs included in this book; annotated with a three-way combination of music notation; chords; and harmonica tablature. Here is the artist and song listing:Sonny Boy Williamson:All My Love In VainCheckin Up On My BabyCool DispositionCross My HeartDont Lose Your EyeDont Start Me TalkinDown ChildFattening Frogs For SnakesHelp MeI Dont KnowKeep It To YourselfLet Me ExplainLet Your Conscience Be Your GuideNine Below ZeroNinety NineOne Way OutThe KeyToo Close TogetherUnseen EyeYou Killing MeYour Funeral And My TrialLittle Walter:Ahw BabyBack TrackBlues With A FeelingBoom Boom (Out Go The Lights)Cant Hold Out Much LongerI Hate To See You Go (Gone And Left Me)JukeJust Your FoolMean Old WorldOff The WallYoure So FineJimmy Reed:Baby; What You Want Me To DoBright Lights; Big CityHonest I DoHowlin Wolf:Sitting On Top Of The WorldSmokestack LightningElmore James with John Brim:RattlesnakeJames Dalton with John Brim:Ice Cream ManLester Davenport:Im A ManJimmie Rogers:Walking By MyselfThis harmonica tablature and songbook is for intermediate to advanced players only. In particular; beginning blues harp novices often have a hard time bending notes while performing the draw bends and blow bends that are often used when playing blues harp. The "Book Description" states that this book includes "an extensive introduction on how to play the pieces in this book". Ummm; seriously; the 2-page section on pages 4 and 5 entitled "How To Read the Harmonica Tablature Terms and Symbols" does NOT constitute extensive instructions on how to play the music that is annotated here. These are all intermediate to advanced level songs that will even challenge the advanced players. You can learn far more by reading an entire harmonica instruction book and watching videos; or you can learn better and faster by taking lessons from someone who is good at playing blues harp. There is no instructional guidance in this book.Even though these harmonica tab transcriptions are excellent; like any collection of guitar tablature; to play these songs with an authentic feel; you really need to be familiar with the songs too. Since the bulk of the 41 songs are from Little Walter and Sonny Boy Williamson; if you are not as familiar with their music; the following are two excellent compilations of these two blues harp masters: His Best (Chess 50th Anniversary Collection) ; His Best :(Little Walter)The Chess 50th Anniversary Collection. Many of the songs can be downloaded from iTunes or listened to online.If you are still a beginner who needs recommendations for good harmonica instruction books; here are two good ones: Rock n Blues Harmonica: A World of Harp Knowledge; Songs; Stories; Lessons; Riffs; Techniques and Audio Index for a New Generation of Harp Players and Harmonica For Dummies.If you are an advanced harmonica player who also; like me; plays guitar; you will be pleased to note that the chords are also included in the music notation of all these songs. And then you can play both your guitar and blues harp at the same time using this: Lee Oskar Harmonica Holder ; which I can now play with a few of the songs in this wonderful collection.4 of 5 people found the following review helpful. Wow. Really different! Great to learn complete songs.By JaysbluesBlues Harmonica Collection isnt a blues harp lick book and isnt just a song book. And it isnt a harp tab book for playing the melody of songs. Its also not an instruction book. I have all these. "Blues Harmonica Collection" is different. Its a song book with the harp parts tabbed out in the appropriate places. If youve seen song books with the music tabbed out for guitar then this will look familiar. The difference is theres no guitar tab. The melody lines are written in regular music lines. So; what you may see is a couple bars of music (not tab) with the notation "guitar solo" as the intro; then two bars of melody line written in music notation (not tab) with the words underneath; then two bars of music with the harp tab underneath. Also; along with all of that; the chords are noted at the top like youd expect to see in any music book. So; you can learn the song from intro to outro with the guitar chords; the harp licks and solos; and words. If you can play guitar and sing and play at least intermediate harp youll love this book. If you have a friend or two to play with youll love this book. If you want to learn just the harp parts for some great blues tunes; youll love this book. Ill also be using it to help explain blues and blues structure to my (private) music students. If youre a beginner you probably wouldnt want to start with this book to learn on but you certainly would benefit from it by listening to the song by the original artist and following along in the book. Youll probably be able to get a mental picture of the song that will help when youre ready to attempt the songs. I would absolutely recommend this book to all levels. Id even recommend the book to someone who only plays guitar and sings because the entire songs are there with the chords. I havent had time to sit and play through the songs or learn the harp parts but based on sitting and looking through each page Id have to say I would definately buy it again and Id pay twice the price to get it. Id like to have had a CD with just the harp parts on it but that would have been a huge project. Just pick up CDs with songs. jaysbluesBlues Harmonica Collection0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. I love this bookBy pkfI love this book. Thank you for having it; and your wonderful customer service. I received it shortly after I ordered it.Some things in the book are new to me; but Im learning. In my opinion a person should be at least a beginning intermediate.
