The Seven Senses of Italy: La Luna di Miele
A honeymoon though Italy filled with love and adventure where all the senses are awakened. Part love story, part travelogue, The Seven Senses of Italy follows American newlyweds Bobby and Lisa as they breathe in the sights, sounds, aromas, tastes, and textures of Italy. Unknowingly guided by Lisa’s late grandmother—her nonna—who exemplifies past generations’ intangible but indisputable gifts of intuition and common sense, the couple falls in love with the people, culture, food, and history of the vibrant peninsula. In the process they grow, change, and begin to imagine a new future. Joining Bobby and Lisa on their adventures and discoveries, readers will glide through Venice’s Grand Canal, ride a Vespa through the Umbrian countryside, hear the resonant peal of ancient church bells, sip espresso at sidewalk caffés, and lose themselves in museum masterpieces that transcend time and space. The Seven Senses of Italy is a must-read for the armchair traveler and romantic as well as those familiar with Italy or planning their first trip.
26 Italian songs and arias
Author: John Glenn Paton
language: en
Publisher: Alfred Music Publishing
Release Date: 1991
Arias sung and loved by the greatest singers of the world are here in fresh, new versions. This edition: draws on original manuscripts and historical first editions, along with recent research of prominent musicologists, to meet a high standard of accuracy and authenticity; enhances your enjoyment of the arias with fascinating background information about their original appearance in cantatas and operas, and about their composers; corrects hundreds of errors -- even incorrect words, notes and composers' names -- which have accumulated as past publishers copied from each others' editions; removes Romantic era misinterpretations and 19th-century piano accompaniments, restoring the clear, bright sound of Baroque music. It will be easier than ever to learn the arias because the use of the International Phonetic Alphabet symbols removes doubts about correct pronunciation. It will be easier to sing the arias with meaning because the original Italian texts are translated into English in three ways: 1. a singable rhymed translation 2. a readable prose translation and 3. a literal translation of each single Italian word for those who are learning the language. - Back cover.
