Nearly all children's books about music are written about the orchestra. While the orchestra is one of the foundational ensembles of our culture, there are many more kinds of ensembles that are popular worldwide, including the brass band. When Dr. Amy Schumaker Bliss couldn't find a children's book about brass bands for her son, she decided to write one herself. Written with the expertise of a brass band specialist and illustrated with an eye for detail, this book introduces a basic history of brass bands, the various instruments in a brass band, and different purposes of a brass band all in language that children can understand. Illustrations by Allie Geddert are beautifully colorful and instruments are drawn precisely, with many eyes ensuring accuracy. With a goal of cultural and physical ability inclusion, Amy worked hard to make sure that every child can see him or herself in a character in this book. This book is for everyone: future musicians, parents, grandparents, music educators, classroom teachers, everyone who has ever heard a brass band, and everyone who hasn't. Join Amy as she takes you through her brass band.

Of the many brass bands that have flourished in Britain and Ireland over the last 200 years very few have documented records covering their history.

Over 19,600 bands are recorded here, with some 10,600 additional cross references for alternative or previous names. This volume supersedes the earlier “British Brass Bands – a Historical Directory” (2016) and includes some 1,400 bands from the island of Ireland. A separate work is in preparation covering brass bands beyond the British Isles. A separate appendix lists the brass bands in each county

A sharp and funny, rueful, and uncompromisingly real tale of growing up—from National Book Award finalist Amy Bloom A chubby girl with smudged pink harlequin glasses and a habit of stealing Heath Bars from the local five-and-dime, Elizabeth Taube is the only child of parents whose indifference to her is the one sure thing in her life. When her search for love and attention leads her into the arms of her junior-high-school English teacher, things begin to get complicated. And even her friend Mrs. Hill, a nearly blind, elderly black woman, can't protect her when real love—exhilarating, passionate, heartbreaking—enters her life in the gorgeous shape of Huddie Lester. With her finely honed style and her unflinching sensibility, Bloom shows us how profoundly the forces of love and desire can shape a life.

A tragedy tears a family apart - a superb novel from the Sunday Times bestselling author of THE LEAVING OF LIVERPOOL. Pretty Amy Curran was just eighteen years old when she met Barney Patterson, the love of her life, on Southport Pier in 1939. Their romantic, passionate marriage was made in heaven - but with the outbreak of war, Barney volunteered to fight, and the couple were separated for five long years. When he returned to Liverpool after VE Day, he wasn't the same person - and neither was Amy. How could things have become so twisted that one day Amy would kill the husband she once so adored? And what happened to their little girl, Pearl, just five years old at the time? In 1971 Amy is released from prison - although her freedom will change the lives of others, not least that of her daughter. But Pearl has her own demons to exorcise in her quest for happiness. And the greatest question she must ask herself is this: can she ever love her mother after what she did?
