Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. During a span of 55 years, Emil Richards has been a renowned presence in Hollywood soundstages, recording studios, jazz clubs and international touring venues. Considered a supreme artist on the vibraphone, marimba and xylophone, as well as a master of his world-famous collection of percussion instruments, Richards is renowned throughout the world for his versatility. This book's lifetime of insightful and hilarious experiences include years with Frank Sinatra and George Harrison, as well as many anecdotes involving Burt Bacharach, Elvis Presley and Ravi Shankar, as well as most major recording artists. Richards' chronology roughly categories the book's chapters into decades, with the 1960s mainly involving album recording, television shows in the '70s and films in the '80s and '90s. A parallel career means stories emanating through playing with George Shearing, Paul Horn, Stan Kenton and Roger Kellaway, as well as Igor Stravinsky and Richards' own group Calamari. There are warm recollections of the great film composers, including Henry Mancini, Alex North, Jerry Goldsmith and John Williams, who all collaborated at finding a unique sound at Richards' warehouse before composing. Salad bowls used in "Planet Of The Apes," gongs lowered into fluid for space movies and many other unusual sonic effects will flash readers back to decades of favorite movies. From an astonishing family history and grim days growing up in Hartford, Connecticut, through wild tours with Sinatra to Europe, Japan and Egypt, and visits to the Maharishi in India, Richards' entertaining, direct style perfectly complements this wealth of inside experiences. ________________________________________ "Throughout the many years of his long and distinguished career, Emil Richards consistently brought adventure, joy and discovery to all of his music making. His new book is a valuable addition to the documentation of a period of great creativity in American music." - John Williams "I have no doubt that if you have even the slightest interest in movies or music, you will find that Emil's stories are as inspirational as they are funny, and most importantly, you will discover one of the greatest souls ever to grace the music industry." - Michael Giacchino "Emil has played on . I have no idea, maybe 60 or 70 scores of mine. He never disappoints and continues to amaze me. When it comes to percussion, Emil has always and always will be an irreplaceable original. .The Man! .The One and Only." - Danny Elfman During a span of 55 years, Emil Richards has been a renowned presence in Hollywood soundstages, recording studios, jazz clubs and international touring venues.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a thorough investigation into the structure of the electromagnetic field in the region of focus for aplanatic optical systems. It examines the case of a linearly polarized incident field, presenting expressions for the electric and magnetic vectors in the image space. The author discusses the general consequences of these formulas, including the symmetry properties of the field, the polarization of the image region, and the energy density distribution. Detailed diagrams and tabulated data illustrate the results for selected angular semi-apertures on the image side. The author also investigates the case of an unpolarized field. The solution is not restricted to systems of low aperture, and the computational results cover the whole range of angular semi-aperture on the image side, from 0 to 0.5. The limiting case of 0. is examined, and the field is shown to be completely characterized by a single, complex scalar function, identical to that of the classical scalar theory of Airy, Lommel, and Struve. This book provides a valuable resource for understanding the resolving power of image forming systems, and it helps to clarify the significance of the usual scalar diffraction theory employed in the analysis of images in low aperture systems. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
