'Clemency Burton-Hill makes classical music absolutely accessible,
magical and medicinal. Another Year of Wonder is, indeed, another
wonder.' Dolly Alderton, broadcaster, writer and bestselling
author'Clemmie's recommendations have broadened my mind, sharpened
my imagination, tugged on my heartstrings and given me a song for
every mood. Read this book and let yourself float away for a moment
or two.What a gift.' Emma Gannon, bestselling author and host of
the Ctrl Alt Delete podcastANOTHER YEAR OF WONDER IS A CAREFULLY
CURATED COLLECTION OF CLASSICAL MUSIC OFFERING ONE PIECE TO LISTEN
TO EVERY DAY OF THE YEAR. WITH A FOREWORD BY ELIZABETH DAYIn this
follow-up to her much-loved Year of Wonder, award-winning
broadcaster, journalist and violinist Clemency Burton-Hill
continues her mission to demystify and open up the world of
classical music to everyone, offering up one extraordinary piece of
music to listen to every day of the year. 'There is no algorithm to
this book: it is a thoughtfully curated selection given from one
human to another.It is not a history book, or a formal 'guide to
classical music'. It is simply from my heart to yours. I have
chosen pieces I love, or think historically interesting, or which
have some resonance for me personally or in the world.But what
matters is what you think, how they make you feel as you listen. I
hope that you will fall in love with most of them, or at least be
fascinated by their historical context, or find them curious in
other ways, because then you are already in a relationship with
classical music. This is your book, as much it is mine.'Another
Year of Wonder shows that, whoever you are and wherever you come
from, classical music can be a soundtrack for your everyday life
and a reminder that finding a space to sit and listen to a piece of
music every day can be a singular gift.
Na brehu Ženevského jazera stojí zámok Atlantis, v ktorom sa
schádza 7 sestier, aby pochovali svojho nevlastného otca. Jeho
posledná vôľa však obsahuje niečo, čo ich všetky prekvapí. Dozvedia
sa, v ktorej krajine majú hľadať svoj skutočný pôvod. Maia, ktorá
je prvou zo sestier, neváha a rozhodne sa vypátrať, kým je a kam
patrí. Pátranie po jej osude ju zavedie do slnkom zaliateho Rio de
Janeira, do starobylej vily, kde objaví informácie o žene menom
Izabela Bonifacio. Práve Izabela žila v dome na začiatku 20.
storočia a patrila k najvyššej vrstve miestnej smotánky. Maia sa
ponorí do neuveriteľného životného príbehu Izabely a popri tom
rozplieta aj svoj vlastný.
