Nicolaus Amatus Cremonen, Hieronymi
Fil. ac Antonij Nepos Fecit. 16—
AMATI, Niccolò, Cremona, born December 3, 1596, died April 12, 1684. Son of Girolamo Amati. It is gratifying in the notice of this famous Violin-maker to be able to supply dates of his birth, marriage, and death. Niccolò was christened on December 6, 1596. His marriage took place on May 23, 1645, and it is interesting to record that his pupil Andrea Guarneri witnessed the ceremony, and signed the register. The information recently supplied by Canon Bazzi of Cremona, relative to the pupils and workmen of Niccolò Amati, who were duly registered in the books of the parish of SS. Faustino and Giovita, is fraught with interest. It seems to carry us within the precincts, if not into the workshop, of the master. Andrea Guarneri heads the list in the year 1653, age twenty-seven, and married; next comes Leopoldo Todesca, age twenty-eight; and Francesco Mo. . . Read More

Honestly I am a webbet (Andrew Lloyd webber fan) a huge fan. It would be an honor to meet him. I love the phantom if the opera but somebody says that garage butler was terrible (which I harshly disagree with) but I love Andrew Lloyd webber and all of his work
I absolutely ADORE this book and the stage musical. I would say that there are a few changes between this book and the musical so if you are simply looking for a 1:1 novelization of the musical this isn't quite that. However, it is an absolutely beautifully written story of many things.
Wonderful piano and vocal arrangements. I personally love this musical, despite the fact that most of the songs included here are hugely over-used. I adore them, none the less, both to play and to sing.
Music of the Night and The Point of No Return are just amazing on the piano especially when you add in the harmonic double octave that adds a second voice and allows the song to take flight. So beautifully arranged and composed!
A classic piece of French literature that sparked an American film & theater icon. Many iterations of Leroux's Erik and his sinisterly tragic attraction to young ingenue Christine Daae have developed over the years.....some more sinister, while other more romantic in portrayal. But none really compa
