In this wide-ranging study, Richard Neer offers a new way to understand the epoch-making sculpture of classical Greece. Working at the intersection of art history, archaeology, literature, and aesthetics, he reveals a people fascinated with the power of sculpture to provoke wonder in beholders. Wonder, not accuracy, realism, naturalism or truth, was the supreme objective of Greek sculptors. Neer traces this way of thinking about art from the poems of Homer to the philosophy of Plato. Then, through meticulous accounts of major sculpture from around the Greek world, he shows how the demand for wonder-inducing statues gave rise to some of the greatest masterpieces of Greek art. Rewriting the history of Greek sculpture in Greek terms and restoring wonder to a sometimes dusty subject, The Emergence of the Classical Style in Greek Sculpture is an indispensable guide for anyone interested in the art of sculpture or the history of the ancient world.

(Piano Solo Songbook). What would composers such as Bach, Beethoven, Chopin, Debussy, or Rachmaninoff have done if they had arranged "Nights in White Satin" for solo piano? Would Bach have penned a prelude or minuet? Would Chopin have crafted a nocturne or mazurka? What about Mozart, Tchaikovsky or Bartok? Here are 16 classic rock songs arranged for piano solo as if covered by the likes of these music giants. The focus is on classic accompaniment styles, devices, figurations and forms, the compositional hallmarks of centuries of great music. Songs include: Angie * Cold As Ice * Come Sail Away * Don't Fear the Reaper * Green-Eyed Lady * Hey Jude * Nights in White Satin * Proud Mary * School's Out * She's Always a Woman * Tiny Dancer * Walk This Way * We Are the Champions * and more.
