An extremely useful volume for pianists who wish to expand their skills at playing chords or reading melody lines and adding their own accompaniment. Major and minor triads; dominant 7th chords; diminished triads; augmented triads and more are all clearly explained and diagrammed.

Beautiful Thing : A Screenplay by Jonathan HarveyBy A CustomerIt is about two school boys who fall in love.A long hot summer on a housing estate in South London. James is bunking off school; whilst his Mother Sandra juggles job promotion and her relationship with hippy-dippy boyfriend Tony.Next door lives Sassy Leah; who spends her day listening to Mama Cass records. In the same block; Jamies class mate Steve; although sporty and popular at school; Is bullied by his drunken father. One day Steve; seeks refuge in Sandras flat and ends up sleeping head to toe with Jamie...Author says "The only images I really had of gay people when I was growing up were those public boys in cricket jumpers taking each other punting on the river; or the working class boys who got kicked out and ended up working as rent boys. This play in which somebody can be working class and still have their sexuality accepted. That was my agenda. Its not about what you get up to after lights out; its about falling in love."The feel good book of the summer film 96We love the book and the filmgayteens.org0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. They Made Their Own Kind Of MusicBy A CustomerFor a change; we have here a most outstanding gay story which doesnt mention AIDS every three paragraphs - in fact; I believe it only comes up once. What a relief! Its the most moving love story; where those who fall in love just happen to be two boys. This really has to be read to be believed - no review could do it justice; so my advice to you is simply to get hold of a copy! You will also fall in love - with Jamie Ste; Leah; her Mum and Sandra - Jamies Mum. You will laugh and cry; sometimes at the same time. A modern masterpiece. Some further advice to you; when youve finished reading; find a Mama Cass/The Mamas And The Papas CD and lap up the atmosphere. Youll notice how many songs could have been written especially for "Beautiful Thing". By the way; Mama Cass didnt die choking on a sandwich - she had a heart attack.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. "Beautiful Thing" Is Just ThatBy A CustomerThe tale of two British boys who fall in love in the Thamesmead council estate hits home for all of us; no matter what sexual orientation; age; nationality or upbringing. Jonathan Harvey does a great job of translating his simple; well-written stage production into a broadened; wonderful screenplay. The big screen gave him the chance to further develop the characters of Jamie; Ste and the others. And the "BT" script gives avid fans the opportunity to pick up and understand the thick south London tongue used in the movie
