[书籍] Chopin and Beyond: My Extraordinary Life in Music and the Paranormal
作者: Byron Janis
出版社: John Wiley
简介: Praise for Byron Janis and Chopin And Beyond "Byron Janis's life has been the stuff of music and of magic—and so is his extraordinary autobiography. From Chopin to Horowitz to Pablo Picasso, from the Soviet Union in the thick of the Cold War to otherworldly dimensions in which the unexpected happens, he has been on a remarkable and compelling ride. Don't think classical music, global politics, and the paranormal can mix? You will." —Jeffrey Kluger, coauthor of Apollo 13 "Byron Janis's autobiography is both intimate and revealing, providing us a remarkable window into the soul and spirit of one of America's most gifted musical artists. But it is much more than that. One also experiences a concert pianist's struggle to come to terms with the debilitating onslaught of arthritis. From these ashes a phoenix rises to share with us a deeper inner journey that is inspiring and uplifting—what it means to triumph against odds, to confront and accept the reality of paranormal experiences, to be open to being truly alive in a universe full of wonder—a truly unique portrait of one of the greatest artists of our time." —Hal Puthoff, Ph.D., theoretical and experimental physicist "A fascinating story of the courage and perseverance of one of the great pianists of the twentieth century and the present. I have been a fan of his for many years, and this very personal story makes me admire him even more." —Emanuel Ax, concert pianist "A wonderful and poignant story from a great musician of the modern period. An important read on important and interesting topics, including his intuitive gifts." —Edgar Mitchell, Sc.D., Ph.D, Apollo astronaut, founder of the Institute of Noetic Sciences "Byron Janis shares the unspoken challenges of living with a debilitating form of arthritis that tested his spirit and threatened his career as a piano virtuoso. His story of perseverance, courage, and triumph will inspire anyone who has faced a formidable obstacle." —John H. Klippel, M.D., President and CEO, Arthritis Foundation
