While The Music Lasts When her father dies, music historian and trombonist Dr Emily MacGregor finds that music has become too much. Listening, let alone playing, is too difficult to cope with, and she can't listen to anything anymore. This is problematic given that she's a broadcaster, writer and academic working with classical music.
It leads her on a journey of discovery: from the arrangement of an Isaac Albéniz piece she finds on her father's guitar stand, through encounters with psychologists, orchestras, summer schools and funeral celebrants, to the lives and works of individual composers who wrote music so often in the midst of loss. What is it about our experience of music that cuts so sharply to the heart of our emotions? And why is it more than any other artform painfully, exquistely crucial in the evoking of memories? Emily MacGregor Emily MacGregor is a writer, music historian and broadcaster based at King's College, London. She appears regulary as a music expert on BBC radio. Laura Tunbridge Laura Tunbridge, FBA, is a Professor of Music at the University of Oxford, specialising in Beethoven, Robert Schumann, song, and chamber music.

珍珍吖头

It is the oldest bookstore in Oxford University. It looks inconspicuous from the outside but is very spacious inside. The layout is also very British. Of course, the most popular books are the Harry Potter series, the Lord of the Rings series by John Tolkien, an Oxford professor of Old English, and The Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis, an Oxford professor.

Bridge of Sighs

The Bridge of Sighs (Oxford University, UK) is officially called Hertford Bridge. It is a famous attraction at Oxford University. The construction of the Bridge of Sighs began in 1913 (completed in 1914). It crosses New College Road and connects the old and new parts of Hertford College. It is a famous attraction at Oxford University. It was designed by Sir Thomas Jackson. Because the bridge is similar to the Bridge of Sighs in Venice, Italy, it is called the Bridge of Sighs. I came to Oxford University with a tour group and could only take a quick look.
