Paperback. Condition: Good. Seeking the Infinite: The Musical Life of Stanislaw Skrowaczewski is the riveting biography of one of classical music's most eminent artists. Like the legendary Leonard Bernstein, Skrowaczewski is one of the few conductor-composers of his generation whose achievements in both realms uphold a tradition reaching back to Mahler. Frederick Harris vividly details Skrowaczewski's incredible life: his struggle for survival in Poland during World War I; his tenures as music director of the Minnesota Orchestra and Halle Orchestra; and his complex career as an internationally renowned conductor-composer. The book offers a behind-the-scenes view into the world of the professional orchestra and Skrowaczewski's personal challenges and successes within that sphere. It also presents-for the first time-a comprehensive look at his compositions, approach to conducting, and celebrated recordings. More than a biography, Seeking the Infinite provides a cultural history of multiple countries spanning nearly ninety years. Skrowaczewski's career has intersected with music's most illustrious figures of the past: Boulanger, Shostakovich, Stravinsky, and Rubinstein, among others. Drawing upon hundreds of interviews with many of today's greatest classical music artists, this book appeals to both general music lovers and seasoned professionals. Seeking the Infinite reveals why Stanislaw Skrowaczewski is among the most important-yet underappreciated-musicians of our time.…

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Fair. The Complete Tales of Uncle Remus by Joel Chandler Harris is a collection of stories first published in the late 19th century, featuring the beloved character Uncle Remus, a wise and humorous African American storyteller. Set in the southern United States, the tales are told in the voice of Uncle Remus, who shares folklore and fables featuring anthropomorphized animals, most notably Br'er Rabbit, Br'er Fox, and Br'er Bear. These stories are rooted in African American oral traditions and were often used to teach moral lessons through the cleverness of the characters. The collection is noted for its use of dialect, which helps bring the characters to life and offers a window into Southern life at the time. Despite its popularity, the book has faced criticism for its portrayal of race and its use of dialect, which some view as problematic in today's context. Nevertheless, The Complete Tales of Uncle Remus remains a significant work in the history of American literature, especially in its representation of folk narratives.
