Individual Composer & Musician
Mozart’s Clarinet Concerto, written in 1791 during the last month of the famous composer’s life, is the most frequently performed and highly revered concerto in clarinet literature. This insightful book examines the concerto in detail and analyzes the musical theories and performance techniques of eight of the world’s greatest clarinetist’s: Stanley Hasty, Robert Marcellus, Anthony Gigliotti, Harold Wright, Rudolf Jettel, Ulysse Delecluse, Jack Brymer, and Michel Incenzo.
The story of Johnson’s lost photograph is also the story of Schein’s crusade to prove he’s holding a bona fide piece of music history. Much like a modern-day Don Quixote in a felt fedora, Schein is on a mission to convince others to see the truth as only he can.

It’s not every day that you get to meet your idol. For John Taylor, that day came in 1975 when he stopped by New Orleans’ Sea-Saint Studio on a whim and struck up a relationship with Paul and Linda McCartney. After the breakup of the Beatles, the McCartneys formed the band Wings, which was active through the early ’80s. The band had come to New Orleans to record their album Venus and Mars at Allen Toussaint’s famous studio, setting the stage for some of the greatest-ever moments for McCartney fans.
