Songs of the Unsung by Horace Tapscott Pdf

Despite his importance and influence, jazz musician, educator, and community leader Horace Tapscott remains relatively unknown to most Americans. In Songs of the Unsung Tapscott shares his life story, recalling his childhood in Houston, moving with his family to Los Angeles in 1943, learning music, and his early professional career. He describes forming the Pan Afrikan Peoples Arkestra in 1961 and later the Union of God's Musicians and Artists Ascension to preserve African American music and serve the community. Tapscott also recounts his interactions with the Black Panthers and law enforcement, the Watts riots, his work in Hollywood movie studios, and stories about his famous musician-activist friends. Songs of the Unsung is the captivating story of one of America’s most unassuming heroes as well as the story of L.A.'s cultural and political evolution over the last half of the twentieth century.

Fold your gentle majesty into lone soliloquies.” There are also eighty songs, inspired by Jim Morrison, and fifty songs worth of lyrics inspired by Emily Dickinson, and a tribute to others’ section. Let these musical-lyrical rhymes be your guiding light on your way toward shining your own light.

The Dark Tree by Steven L. Isoardi Pdf

In the early 1960s, pianist Horace Tapscott gave up a successful career in Lionel Hampton’s band and returned to his home in Los Angeles to found the Pan Afrikan Peoples Arkestra, a community arts group that focused on providing community-oriented jazz and jazz training. Over the course of almost forty years, the Arkestra, together with the related Union of God’s Musicians and Artists Ascension collective, was at the forefront of the vital community-based arts movement in Black Los Angeles. Some three hundred artists—musicians, vocalists, poets, playwrights, painters, sculptors, and graphic artists—passed through these organizations, many ultimately remaining within the community and others moving on to achieve international fame. In The Dark Tree, Steven L. Isoardi draws on one hundred in-depth interviews with the Arkestra’s participants to tell the history of the important and largely overlooked community arts movement of Black Los Angeles. This revised and updated edition brings the story of the Arkestra up to date, as its ethos and aesthetic remain vital forces in jazz and popular music to this day.

Song Never Sung by Allison Shaw Pdf

For years, emotions?both good and bad?have been pouring out of me, releasing themselves onto scrap papers, notebooks, napkins and computer screens taking shape as melody-less songs. Call them poems, call them lyrics, call them what you will; the thoughts once formed and molded into rhythms and rhymes just could not be lost forever or kept to clutter in my mind. These bits of my heart were originally written for no one?s eyes but my own, but this book?which in effect, I have been writing for more than ten years?changes that. Love them, hate them, maybe feel inspired? If nothing else with each song you?ve gained a tiny window into a stranger?s mind on some particular day, feeling some particular way, worrying about some particular thing, and perhaps you will find that we are not such strangers after all. This collection of unsung song lyrics is for those looking for answers, those looking for questions, the young at heart, the old souls, curious minds and inspired musicians. I invite you all into my heart and into this record of my life for the last decade.

From My Heart to His Heart by Vera L. Smith Pdf

From unexpected struggles and precious moments spent in God’s presence, God is building life stories of strength, endurance, and an overcoming spirit because nothing in life is wasted. Looking through a biblical lens, God seeks out ordinary clay vessels to tell his story to bring to light what his own eyes behold. The book From My Heart to His Heart reveals real-life experiences encountered during a personal wilderness season that challenge the reader to look within. The book opens the eye to recognizing that those who walk closely with God are not exempt from a wilderness season for it comes to us all. Entwined with biblical Scriptures and history, and divinely inspired poetry that tells of intimacy with God, the reader is drawn to reflect on God’s presence when prayers seem to go unanswered. From compelling real-life stories that engage the heart, the mind, and the soul—truth is revealed. Walk with the author to experience joy from a place of sorrow, and to trust God from a place of isolation and silence, and then rejoice in understanding that God takes all of what we’ve gone through to build purpose and to position us to bless his kingdom.

An Anthology of Spiritual Poetry & Meditations by Rev. David Bauscher Pdf

This is a collection of poems & meditations written since the author's very powerful encounter with Christ in 1973.

No doubt this will remain true for all the ages to come.
