Seventh Annual Edition-Many of the people who work on Broadway keep scrapbooks of their experiences: photos signed posters ticket stubs and of course the Playbills. Playbill Books a division of the iconic 127-year-old company that designs the programs for every show on Broadway has expanded this idea into an annual project that has become a Broadway institution: The Playbill Broadway Yearbook. Taking the form of a college yearbook the seventh edition is packed with photos - more than 4 000 of them many in color - and memorabilia from the entire 2010-2011 Broadway season including headshots of all the actors and photos of producers writers designers stage managers stagehands musicians- even the ushers! A new feature this year is plot summaries of each of the shows as well as stats Playbill covers and inside stories that only Playbill can get. It includes chapters on nearly 80 Broadway shows - not just new shows such as Spider-man: Turn Off the Dark Warhorse The Book of Mormon and Catch Me If You Can but also the season's long-running ones such as Billy Elliot Mamma Mia! and Wicked. Also included is a wealth of photos from Broadway insider events including Gypsy of the Year Broadway Bare and the annual Broadway League softball championship. The authors have once again asked each production to supply a member of the cast or crew to serve as correspondent to report on things that only those who worked backstage would know: opening night presents embarrassing moments memorable ad-libs who got the Gypsy Robe daily rituals celebrity visits favorite health tips and regimens and so on. Correspondents range from dressers and stage doormen to stage managers dancers featured players and in some cases the star of the show.

The renowned pianist Hans-Günter Heumann has arranged these 30 contemporary Piano classics which are some of the greatest hits of modern composers, inspired by minimalism and drawing on many other genres. Including arrangements of Einaudi, Yiruma and Yann Tiersen among many others, Piano Pur features many songs to soothe the soul.
The most acclaimed composers of the genre like Dustin O'Halloran, Ludovico Einaudi, Yann Tiersen and Philip Glass are represented here, with beautiful arrangements by Heumann. The repetitive structures build rhythms and melodies that envelop the listener, resulting in wonderful pieces of music that are as enjoyable to play as they are simply to listen to. The juxtaposition of patterns and motifs create relaxing and joyful music that may come under the genre of 'miminalism', but is far from simplistic.
Featuring songs like River Flows In You, Nightbook, Metamorphosis One and Three as well as Erik Satie's masterful Gymnopédie #1, Piano Pur is a wonderful selection of the most beautiful contemporary classical pieces, as well as three original compositions by Heumann himself. Featuring a unique MP3 CD with full demonstrations as well, this songbook has everything you might need to learn how to play these fantastic songs on Piano./ Recueil / Piano
