[ebooks] Jazz Keyboard Harmony: Take the Mystery Out of Jazz Harmony by Noah Baerman at Arts-Photography

Description

For almost half a century; Foxfire has brought the philosophy of simple living to hundreds of thousands of readers; teaching creative self-sufficiency and preserving the stories; crafts; and customs of Appalachia. Inspiring and practical; this classic series has become an American institution. The Foxfire 45th Anniversary Book continues the beloved tradition of celebrating a simpler life; this time with a focus on Appalachian music; folk legends; and a history full of outsized personalities. We hear the encouraging life stories of banjo players; gospel singers; and bluegrass musicians who reminisce about their first time playing at the Grand Ole Opry; we shiver at the spine-tingling collection of tall tales; from ghosts born of long-ago crimes to rumors of giant catfish that lurk at the bottom of lakes and quarries; we recollect the Farm Family Program that sustained and educated Appalachian families for almost fifty years; through the Depression and beyond; and we learn the time-honored skills of those who came before; from building a sled to planting azaleas and braiding a leather bull-whip. Full of spirited narrative accounts and enduring knowledge; The Foxfire 45th Anniversary Book is a piece of living history from a fascinating American culture.From the Trade Paperback edition.
