Review # 1 was written on 2009-05-06 00:00:00 Joseph Caravello A nice conversation and bar decoration; the chalky history of champagne and its region and some quotes from novels, etc. There are also cocktail recipes and food recipes taking champagne or for bites to accompany it. Lots of pictures, this is something you could leaf through over a glass of bubbly starting any where. From the technical history I was really struck with the idea of the bottles upside down collecting sediment near the opening where it is frozen, removed, and replaced with a plug of sugar for configuring to brut, sec, etc. |
Review # 2 was written on 2010-01-12 00:00:00 Travis Holloway This book was very inspiring to me. The underlying dream Kodaly had was to inspire the masses to obtain music literacy, and in Hungary his methods have done just that. This book tells what the Kodaly method is capable of doing when music is approached as a core subject from elementary school, and how it helps children excel in all areas of academics. It also talks in depth about the Kodaly method in American Public schools, what are reasonable goals for the American classroom, and how to do it. It also addresses some of the challenges of doing it in America. One of the true gems of this book was the songs at the end. They are American folk songs arranged in the sequence children should learn to sing. Kodaly is a child-developmental approach, and I really like that. I'm planning on using the Kodaly method in my homeschooling of my children, and it's encouraged me to raise the bar with my students as well. This was a great read, and now a treasured resource in my library. |
