My Journey to Finding Me
2 In what I believe to be my first memories of life, I see myself sitting on a cot in a corner of a room. I look up to see a beautiful woman with dark auburn hair looking down at me a few steps from where I was sitting. Who is she? Was she talking to me, trying to make me understand why I'm here? Is that my mother? I don't know. She turned to her right and walked away, and I never saw her again. Was it a dream or was it real?

Tales of Risotto
With stories that only a Villa d'Este insider of 35-years like Jean Salvadore could recount or unearth; luscious recipes that stem from illustrious visitors and incredible visits; and the creative work of the world-class imagination of an acknowledged top international cook like chef Luciano Parolari, this book is mouthwatering in more ways than one.
The Art and Government Service of Francesco di Bartolomeo Alfei (c. 1421 - c. 1495)
In 1454 the Sienese painter Francesco di Bartolomeo Alfei faced litigation from the Mercanzia in Siena for defaulting on a contract from one of the leading Franciscan confraternities in the city. Two fellow Sienese artists, Giovanni di Paolo and Sano di Pietro, had recently completed a new altarpiece for the same entity. Anabel Thomas considers how the two commissions were linked and questions why Francesco di Bartolomeo Alfei's brief to fresco the confraternity chapel remained unfinished. In a wide ranging analysis of mainly unpublished records, focussing on the artist's association with key members of Sienese society, fellow artisans and government officials, Thomas concludes that Francesco di Bartolomeo Alfei might have honoured his contract had he not become immersed in the military strategy, diplomacy and visual propaganda of the Republic of Siena.
Bruno Maderna
Bruno Maderna was one of the most influential composers in the twentieth century. He was the eldest of the group of Italian composers born in the 1920s (along with Berio, Nono, Donatoni, and others) who began their career shortly before the second World War and were able to exploit the opportunities offered by the new world that emerged in the post-war years. Maderna’s story is quite unique. He rose to fame early in life as a child prodigy and his exceptional talent was soon noticed by Gian Francesco Malipiero, who stimulated his interest in ancient music, a passion that remained constant even when the European avant-garde insisted that new music should start from year zero.
