Primeiro livro de partituras das composições de Mú Carvalho, compositor, pianista, arranjador, e produtor. Filho de mãe pianista, Mú ouvia em casa desde criança vários compositores que o influenciariam por toda vida: entre eles Ernesto Nazareth, Fréderic Chopin e Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. A partir da segunda metade dos anos 70, começou a se dedicar às composições com uma pegada de ritmos brasileiros, jazz e rock progressivo dos anos 70 e sua carreira profissional deslancharia. Em 1978, no Festival Choro da TV Bandeirantes, seu grupo A Cor do Som foi a grande revelação do Festival com sua composição "Espírito Infantil", um choro moderno com elementos de jazz. Nos anos seguintes o grupo A Cor do Som conseguiu grande sucesso misturando rock, ritmos regionais e música clássica e segue junto há 40 anos. Paralelamente ao trabalho do grupo, Mú foi evoluindo tocando com muitos medalhões da MPB e ganhando uma enorme vivência ouvindo e tocando jazz, pop/rock e MPB. Também mergulhou na música para cinema e para TV aprimorando ainda mais o seu lado compositor. Gravou quatro discos solo com suas composições e um com sua caneta de arranjador para músicas de Ernesto Nazareth. Este songbook, que traz 25 de suas composições mais representativas, é um material especialíssimo para pianistas eruditos e populares que querem aprimorar sua maneira de tocar. São choros, baiões, valsas, choros/baiões e canções brasileiras transcritas da maneira exata pelo compositor que ajudam os músicos profissionais e amadores a encontrarem novos caminhos para sua arte.

This volume sheds light on the wide range of perspectives on musical activity today, and shows how it can be analyzed from different points of view, working within a diverse theoretical framework. It is organized into three sections, the first of which discusses the changing contexts of musical work compositions over the 20th century. The second part offers a rich and in-depth musical analysis, rigorously connected to the performative and interpretative dimension, while the third considers the relationship between technology and music, and its influence on the creation of new paradigms for musical performance and creation. Covering practical and theoretical problems, the collection will be of great interest to scholars, professionals, students of music, composers, and performers.

This anthology on otherness and the media, first published in 1993, was prompted by the proliferation of writings centring on issues of ‘difference’, ‘diversity’, ‘multiculturalism’, ‘representation’ and ‘postcolonial’ discourses. Such issues and discourses question existing canons of criticism, theory and cultural practice but also because they suggest a new sense of direction in theorisation of difference and representation.

Appleby, who was honored by the Brazilian government with the Villa-Lobos Centennial Medal for his outstanding research into the life and music of the composer. Each piece has its own unique, sharply drawn character and is sure to appeal with an abundant degree of rhythmic sophistication.
