Respighi: Gli Uccelli /Vetrate Di Chiesa; Scarlatti & Tommasini: Le Donne Di Buon Umore $6.98 Sometime in the `70s, Sony (then CBS) released a two LP set called The Respighi Album which contained, among other pieces, the Church Windows and The Birds. Now The Birds had been recorded before and was pretty well known, but Church Windows was a stereo novelty, and it made a tremendous impression. Now this legendary performance has been remastered onto a budget-priced CD at a fraction of the… |

Diaries of a Dying Man $68.59 Introduced by Alexander Scott. William Soutar was one of the greatest Scots poets of his generation. Tragically he was confined to his bed with a crippling illness for the last fourteen years of his life.

Claudine At School $4.58 Claudine is a head strong, clever and extremely mischievous schoolgirl. Along with her friends the lanky Anais, the cheerful Marie and the prim Joubert twins Claudine wreaks havoc on her small school. Always clever, witty and charming Claudine is more than a match for her formidable headmistress as they fight for the attention of the pretty assistant Aimee. The horrors of examinations and good-humoured bullying are the backdrops in this immensely funny and delightful novel with which Colette established the captivating character of Claudine. Through the games, the fun and the intricacies of school life Claudine emerges as a true original; lyrical and intelligent she is one of the twentieth century’s most beguiling emancipated women |

Newell Waltz $24.78 After 25 years as side-man in notable ensembles, Howard Cairns has at long last recorded his own tunes, featuring longtime friends and colleagues with whom he has performed and recorded with over the past two decades. Notables such as the James Sherlock Trio, the Ross Hannaford Trio, and most recently Way Out West have helped establishHoward Cairns as one of Australia’s leading contemporary musicians. This Quintet is chordless, melody based, and pulse orientated. The music is in turn reflective, tongue in cheek, good humoured, dark, even hopeful! |

Before Burns $9.29 Edited and introduced by Christopher MacLachlan. This superb anthology offers a lively and indispensable collection of poems and songs from the eighteenth century. Here are the poets who created the literary tradition of vernacular directness which Burns drew upon and shared. Before Burns includes a substantial selection from the work of Allan Ramsay and Robert Ferguson (Burns’s ‘elder brother in the muse’), as well as a wider selection from the men and women writers whose good-humoured accessibility so characterised the poetry of their time. MacLachlan’s excellent introduction also puts these works in perspective and makes a case for a linguistic confidence, rather than insecurity, in their vigorous use of English and Scots. |

The Deader the Better $13.6 Leo isn’t looking for trouble when he and Rebecca, his forensic pathologist girlfriend, escape from Seattle for a few days of relaxation – it just finds him. An old friend has purchased some choice property in North America’s only rainforest, and his posting of No Trespassing signs has incurred the wrath of every boater, hunter, and fisherman for miles around. What starts as irksome harassment by the offended locals escalates quickly into the realm of the lethal. And it’s just Waterman’s luck to be in the epicenter of this murderous mess at the very moment it bursts into flames. PRAISE FOR LEO WATERMAN SERIES ‘Crime aficionados will probably already have clocked G.M.Ford, whose wisecracking, world-wary style resembles Chandler, and whose Seattle-based private eye, Leo Waterman, is a mostly unreconstructed old hippy . . . Vintage stuff’ DAILY MAIL Fords well-paced and good-humoured narrative climaxes unexpectedly with a shockingly violent confrontation SUNDAY TELEGRAPH |
