Book Description
(Music Minus One). This book provides an easy way to learn and perform compositions with a full ensemble, in the comfort of your own home! "Blue Bossa" offers a unique opportunity to take off on a happy bossa nova tune that has a relatively simple harmonic progression. "The Girl from Ipanema" is another of those Jobim tunes that has a great feel and very relaxed approach to melodic interpratation. "No More Blues" serves as an example that personal interpretation of a song does indeed inform one's playing, and is a great tune for improvisation. These classic bossa novas, 10 in all, will provide the clarinetist with countless hours of enjoyment. This Music Minus One edition includes a newly engraved transcription of the solo part, along with a CD containing the complete performance of each piece in digital stereo, followed by a second version minus the clarinet for you, the soloist, to play with.

Book Description
On 27 July 2009 Eddie Izzard set off on an incredible journey round Britain. With just a few weeks of preparation - and a lot of determination - he ran an astonishing 43 marathons in 51 days, covering more than 1,100 miles. In his first book for twelve years, Eddie Izzard describes what inspired him to run, and what drove him to keep going. He also offers an entertaining and typically idiosyncratic account of the places he ran through. His journey was also an opportunity to reflect on his experiences to date, and his hopes for the future, and as he runs round the country, the places and people he encounters trigger memories of his childhood and his early days as a struggling stand up. The result is a hugely entertaining account of his incredible journey round Britain that also provides an intriguing insight into one of the world's greatest comedians.
