Moser

Benjamin Moser writes of his new program with Avi: “I have had the idea for this project since 2016. For the occasion of the 10th anniversary of my prize at the Tchaikovsky Competition and of my first album with Russian music, I wanted to make another recording, a sort of “Volume 2” with Russian repertoire. Within that framework I wanted to couple a well-known work with others that are more seldom performed: the Pictures at an Exhibition seemed like a good choice, since I had always wanted to play them- particularly in the original version, which I love. I wanted to couple them with Rachmaninoff’s 1st Piano Sonata, a seldom-performed work which is both marvelous and underrated. But then I discovered Earl Wild’s arrangements of Rachmaninoff songs, and soon became thrilled with these technically demanding yet delightfully lyrical miniatures.

Jordan Moser's label debut Long Night is witty, literary folk-country in the vein of the Texas outlaw greats, with nods to folks like John Prine and Guy Clark. Molly Burch sings on all 8 tracks of this record, including the country duet "Road To Trouble" that closes it out. Jordan's lyrics stand out as sage, irreverent, and dark-night-of-the-soul and can traverse so many emotions within one line. An artist in many mediums, Jordan has been a ballet dancer professionally for the past 10 years with Ballet Austin, as well as a prolific filmmaker, having crafted three music videos for Molly Burch and choreographing and dancing in Adam Torres' breathtaking video for "Juniper Arms."

German-Canadian cellist Johannes Moser and Scottish pianist Alasdair Beatson present a moving portrait of the Mendelssohn family with this recording of pieces by the siblings Felix and Fanny. Once composed for the popular Sunday Sessions at the Berlin Mendelssohn family house, these works fit into the typically nineteenth-century tradition of domestic music-making, albeit at the highest thinkable level. Beatson plays an 1837 Érard fortepiano, identical to the instrument that belonged to the Mendelssohn household when these pieces were composed.

This book provides an accessible step-by-step account of Arnold’s classical proof of the Kolmogorov–Arnold–Moser (KAM) Theorem. It begins with a general background of the theorem and proves the famous Liouville-Arnold theorem for integrable systems and introduces Kneser’s tori in four-dimensional phase space. It then introduces and discusses the ideas and techniques used in Arnold’s proof, before the second half of the book walks the reader through a detailed account of Arnold’s proof with all the required steps. It will be a useful guide for advanced students of mathematical physics, in addition to researchers and professionals.

Manche Frauen sind wie Artischocken: stachelig, vielschichtig, und wenn sie sich entblättern, kommt ihr Allerbestes zum Vorschein - das Herz. So ist das auch bei der Buchhalterin Emma… Nichts wirkt klärender auf einen zerknitterten Geist wie eine saubere Zahlenreihe. Das ist Emmas Allheilmittel gegen jegliches Ungemach, denn Emma ist Ende dreißig, ledig und Buchhalterin. Allerdings nicht nur. Sie hat auch noch eine 14-jährige Tochter, mit der sie in einer Art Großfamilie zusammen mit Ex-Freund Pierre lebt, der wiederum mittlerweile mit der angehenden Rechtsanwältin Eva verheiratet ist und mit ihr zwei Kinder hat.

Lange hat sich die erfolgsverwöhnte Schriftstellerin Mimosa Mein dem Medienbetrieb entzogen. Ihre Romane haben ihr allerdings den Ruf eingetragen, das Leben eines mondänen und zügellosen Vamps zu führen. Überrumpelt sagt sie zu, als sie angefragt wird, in der Jury der Sendung "Die Schweiz sucht den SchreibStar" mitzuwirken - als skandalumwitterte "Hasbeen" seien ihr die Stärken und Schwächen der "Wannabes" vertraut, wie ihr der Fernsehredakteur erklärt.
