E-book The Blue Compendium : From Knowledge to Action for a Sustainable Ocean…

E-book The Chamber Musician in the Twenty-First Century

In recent research, there has been growing emphasis on the collaborative, social, and collective nature of musical behaviour and practices.

Yet the width is hardly measurable in comparison - it is often just a few yards. Shores are strange places, being the edge of the land as well as the edge of the sea. The sea level rises falls with the ti…
