extravaganza VICE PALACE: The Last Cockettes Musical.

In Thrillpeddlers full-length version of VICE PALACE: The Last Cockettes Musical, Scrumbly has retained and expanded much of the original score and incorporated hits from The Cockette repertoire along with several new songs.

PEARLS Over SHANGHAI
An original musical by Link Martin (book/lyrics) and Scrumbly Koldewyn (music), PEARLS Over SHANGHAI is the centerpiece of Thrillpeddlers' 2nd annual Theatre of the Ridiculous Revival, and marks the 40th anniversary of the formation of The Cockettes, a gender-bending theatrical troupe who not only originated this show, but exerted a profound influence on the culture of our times, from the phenomenon of midnight movies to glitter rock stars (such as David Bowie and the New York Dolls) and their outrageous fashions. PEARLS is a psychedelic musical inspired bysin-soaked Old Shanghai and Busby Berkeley movie musicals from Hollywood's Golden Age.

The Piano Encyclopedia Assessment: Seeing Music Within a Distinct Viewpoint

Studying the piano today appears to have been defined by the mere interpretation of songs. Piano courses which are offered right now basically teach students to memorize and play by the guidelines. But much more often than not, these students at some point get frustrated and bored. Frustrated, due to the fact soon after years of practicing the piano pieces they’ve learned from the music sheets, they’re simply useless without it. They’re like the disabled; paralyzed without any musical aid. What makes even far more frustrating for some other people, is forgetting the difficult piano pieces they used to play right after not being able to practice for quite some time. Why? Since what they know are purely based on memorization. In the same light, these people sooner or later feel bored. Bored, due to the fact the routine method of having to memorize certain chord patterns to a particular piece do not give these students the appreciation of being able to play the piano. With these, a lot of effort and resources are put to waste. And the result - they quit!
This is not the kind of finding out that The Piano Encyclopedia wants students to achieve. It aims to help students understand music through a revolutionary method that will the mastery of the art of improvisation and composition. Now, right after three years of intense development by over 50 collaborators including pianists, inspired musicians, writers, editors, graphic designers, and developers from diverse corners of the world, The Piano Encyclopedia is proud to present “The Logic Behind Music,” a Digital Home-Study Course that includes a lot more than 1000 pages of unique content, 4000 piano recordings, and 3000 interactive illustrations covering the most important lessons about understanding how music works.

In addition, The Piano Encyclopedia created a 111-page eBook entitled Music Fundamentals that teaches the relationship between chords, scales and intervals in preparation for the student in integrating a higher level of piano studying provided by “The Logic Behind Music.” This eBook will help students see a distinct viewpoint of the songs they used to play which is a prerequisite of mastering the art of composing, improvising and understanding music!

Music Fundamentals has helped a lot of students in their understanding of piano understanding and far more importantly, in their appreciation of music. The once bored and frustrated students can finally have the right tools that do not teach them to become only interpreters, that are useless without the music sheets or depend on memorization, but to become real musicians who have mastered the art of improvisation and composition. Music Fundamentals is surely a new approach that has changed the history of piano finding out forever. A student from Argentina commended:

“I’ve studied Piano a long time, a long time ago. But even I love the piano, I quit because my lessons were too boring for a 7 year-old kid, and all the songs they gave me to learn, were boring too. While I was looking for some way to start again and I found this amazing encyclopedia. And all I have to say is THANKS!!

The work you share is incredible and it helped a lot to remember some old things, and learn new ones. And I’m very glad you’re including and cheering people to compose their own music, that’s a very important part that at least the teachers I had always forgot.” -Cecilia

These days, as part of the release promotion, this Music Fundamentals that has changed piano studying for many individuals is now being offered for free for a limited time only.
