Jason Draper (Auteur), Sophie Aslanides (Traduction) / Pour Prince, musicien d'exception, il fallait un livre exceptionnel, comme celui de Jason Draper. Qui retrace en détail la carrière à la fois tonitruante, longue et sulfureuse du Kid de Minneapolis. Avec ses musts, 1999, Purple Rain ou Sign "O" The Times, et ses périodes d'éclipse. Qui le suive à travers ses outrances et ses métamorphoses, sa mégalomanie et sa folie, en un mot son génie. D'ailleurs, après s'être appelé Prince, alias Joey Coco, Jamie Starr ou Christopher, ne s'est-il pas rebaptisé Love Symbol, mutant issu de la fusion du masculin et du féminin, être tellement parfait qu'aucun nom existant, même le sien, ne saurait en rendre compte Puis The Artist, le plus noble titre qui puisse être décerné à un homme... Richement illustré, notamment avec des doubles pages qui se déplient comme des posters, exhaustif, admiratif et distancié, le livre du journaliste-écrivain londonien Jason Draper est une somme et un sommet, en parfaite harmonie avec son sujet : démesure et kitsch au rendez-vous. Voici donc un Prince grandeur nature (ou presque), somptueusement habillé de blue velvet, pour patienter jusqu'au prochain retour de l'artiste le plus imprévisible de tous les temps.

The ultimate full score medley of beautiful melodies from the Studio Ghibli film Princess Mononoke (1997, dir. Hayao Miyazaki), arranged for concert band in the series: New Sounds in Brass (NSB). Grade 3; Duration: approx.8'50; Composed by Joe Hisaishi; Arranged by Takashi Hoshide. Arranger Takashi Hoshide says, I have selected beautiful melodies from the soundtrack of 'Princess Mononoke' (1997, directed by Hayao Miyazaki) and arranged them into a medley. What can be said about these songs as a whole is that they combine a grand continental scale with the delicacy that reflects Japanese emotions. Since there are no upbeat songs in this selection, I had to work hard on the arrangement, but this allowed for creating contrasts and transitions between each scene in the performance. 'Ashitaka Sekki (English title: The Legend of Ashitaka)' - 'Sekki' means a story that is not recorded but passed down orally. In this anime, this can be considered a sub-main theme. The song starts with a feeling that the story is about to begin and, once the theme kicks in, aim for a grand performance to convey its scale. 'Encounter' - This is the music that plays during the scene where the protagonist Ashitaka meets San. Interestingly, the motif of the main theme 'Princess Mononoke' is used in this melody. Here, let's pursue the shifts in the timbre of individual phrases, creating a beautiful and aesthetic soundscape. 'Princess Mononoke' - This is the main title of the anime. The melody line is carried by horns and trumpets.

Carrie Fisher will forever be remembered for her portrayal of Star Wars' Princess Leia. John Williams' memorable theme beautifully captures the depth and grace of this character as well as the actress who brought her into our hearts.
