Sir Hubert Parry was one of Britains most creative & influential musicians & a key architect of the English Musical Renaissance. This is a major reappraisal of Parry both of his life & his vast legacy of compositions. Well known for three enduringly popular works-Blest Pair of Sirens I was Glad & Jerusalem almost an unofficial national anthem-Parry has long been presented as a paternal establishment figure an image reinforced by a number of popular photographs. Yet Parrys personality was infinitely more complex as Jeremy Dibble makes clear. Drawing on a wealth of documentary evidence made available for the first time he is able to draw a detailed portrait of a radical energetic yet hypersensitive & lonely man locked in an unhappy marriage & in fact a living contradiction of the stereotypical Victorian gentleman. In the course of this the composers relationships & friendships his beliefs & interactions with other composers emerge with clarity. Dibble also charts Parrys development as a composer & presents a detailed examination of his works illustrated with a number of musical examples. The book contains a complete list of works & is illustrated with 33 plates. ...

The C++ Programming Language Fourth Edition delivers meticulous richly explained and integrated coverage of the entire language-its facilities abstraction mechanisms standard libraries and key design techniques. Throughout Stroustrup presents concise pure C++11" examples which have been carefully crafted to clarify both usage and program design. To promote deeper understanding the author provides extensive cross-references both within the book and to
the ISO standard. New C++11 coverage includes * Support for concurrency * Regular expressions resource management pointers random numbers and improved containers * General and uniform initialization simplified for-statements move semantics and Unicode support * Lambdas general constant expressions control over class defaults variadic templates template aliases and user-defined literals * Compatibility issues Topics addressed in this comprehensive book include * Basic facilities: type object scope storage computation fundamentals and more * Modularity as supported by namespaces source files and exception handling * C++ abstraction including classes class hierarchies and templates in support of a synthesis of traditional programming object-oriented programming and generic programming *
Standard Library: containers algorithms iterators utilities strings stream I/O locales numerics and more * The C++ basic memory model in depth This fourth edition makes C++11 thoroughly accessible to programmers moving from C++98 or other languages while introducing insights and techniques that even cutting-edge C++11 programmers will find indispensable. This book features an enhanced layflat binding which allows the book to stay open more easily when placed on a flat surface.
