No Line On The Horizon is U2 's 12th studio album, and has been widely recieved as being comparable to their best work. With long-time production collaborators Daniel Lanois, Brian Eno and Steve Lillywhite on board, the 11 tracks certainly evoke the widescreen sound of their '80s albums such as The Joshua Tree , with the Edge's classic Guitar textures to the fore on forthcoming single Magnificent . All the tracks from the album, including recent single Get On Your Boots are presented in this new matching folio arranged for Guitar tab, complete with full lyrics. / Guitare Tablatures

The first time I saw slipstreaming in action with professional cyclists, I was in awe. The competitors were riding inches away from each other; when the lead rider would swerve left or right, the pursuers would immediately follow suit. The physics behind what appears on the surface to be sheer daredevil antics are quite solid: the cyclists riding directly behind the leader are benefitting from reduced air and wind resistance. On a larger scale, a peloton (the French term for a pack of riders) benefits multiple riders whoare behind the leaders of the pack. While riding so close to other riders carries great risk of colliding, that risk is outweighed by the benefit of preserving one’s energy.Slipstream was inspired by the love of cycling shared by Haley Hoops, horn, and Stephen Ahearn, clarinet, for whom the piece was commissioned. They are drawn to cycling for the adventure of it, to discover new places, and to meet new people. Haley also expressed her enjoyment of taking solo bike rides. Additionally, I found great inspiration in watching the daily highlight videos of the three-week 2020 Tour de France, which happened to be taking place while I composed Slipstream.The piece opens with The Horizon Beckons. A cyclist hears an enticing call emanating from the mountains, then the cyclist starts pedaling towards the mountains in search of adventure. Riding Solo, the second movement, explores the quiet of riding alone, the beauty of the landscape, and the shifting of the light and clouds, all while we hear the bike’s wheels in constant motion. Adrenaline Rush, the third and final movement, depicts the heat of competition. We hear the constant jockeying of cyclists within a peloton as they slipstream with each other and move with the wind. At the very end of the movement, we hear sprinters race for the finish line with everything they have left in their legs.

Pro gramme Note: The name Event Horizon was coined by the brilliant British physicist Stephen Hawking to describe the circumference of a so-called black hole, the remains of a collapsed star with a gravity-pull so powerful, so that not even light can escape from it. This 5-minute study for piano has - needles to say - nothing to do with black holes, but the term event horizon fascinates med and strikes me as near-perfect description of virtually any stretch of organized sound evolving in time, e.g. a musical composition with a strong linear focus. So - Event Horizon it is, as seamless composition of high density, evolving in three parts: swinging-ricocheting-swee ping, amusical journey of speed, from fast to furiously fast, a study based on a high economical compositional material constantly renewing itself, the hands running parallel, separating, meeting again. The discreetest use of pedaling is advised ... Poul Ruders May 2001.
