Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 162
Book Description
Thrust into the international spotlight at the 2012 Olympic Games thanks to her moving performances of 'Abide with Me' at the opening ceremony and 'Read All About It (Part III)' at the closing ceremony, Emeli Sandé is now an international superstar. However, her breakthrough came much earlier, in August 2011, with the release of her first single, 'Heaven', which peaked at number two on the UK Singles Chart.Since then Emeli has been unstoppable, releasing her debut album 'Our Version of Events' in 2012 to critical acclaim - an album which went on to be the UK's bestseller in 2012. What many don't realise is that Emeli is more than just a singer. An Avid pianist and songwriter from an early age, Emeli has co-written songs for a huge number of artists including Tinie Tempah, Alesha Dixon, Cheryl Cole, Professor Green, Leona Lewis and even Susan Boyle. And while music has always been her first love, Emeli is a firm believer in the importance of education, and was studying for a degree in medicine at Edinburgh University before deciding that music had to take precedence. Winning the Critics' Choice Brit Award in 2012 has confirmed the young Scottish singer as one of the great musical talents of a very talented generation, and while publicly 2012 was a hugely successful year for Emeli, privately it was too, as she married her long-term boyfriend Adam Gouraguine in his home country of Montenegro.Journalist David Nolan delves deep to paint a complete picture of the life of this talented musician, from her childhood in rural Scotland to Olympic glory, and offers a glance at what be next for this prodigious talent. This is a must-read for any fan.

The Bloomsbury Handbook of Popular Music, Space and Place
Author: Geoff Stahl
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 1501336304
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 409
Book Description
Popular music scholars have long been interested in the connection between place and music. This collection brings together a number of key scholars in order to introduce readers to concepts and theories used to explore the relationships between place and music. An interdisciplinary volume, drawing from sociology, geography, ethnomusicology, media, cultural, and communication studies, this book covers a wide-range of topics germane to the production and consumption of place in popular music. Through considerations of changes in technology and the mediascape that have shaped the experience of popular music (vinyl, iPods, social media), the role of social difference and how it shapes sociomusical encounters (queer spaces, gendered and racialised spaces), as well as the construction and representations of place (musical tourism, city branding, urban mythologies), this is an up-to-the-moment overview of central discussions about place and music. The contributors explore a range of contexts, moving from the studio to the stage, the city to the suburb, the bedroom to festival, from nightclub to museum, with each entry highlighting the diverse and complex ways in which music and place are mutually constitutive.
