Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Seal Lullaby by Eric Whitacre is a delightful, deceptively simple setting in the form of a lullaby for mixed choir and accompaniment of Rudyard Kipling's poem 'The White Seal'. This full SATB (Soprano, Alto, Tenor, Bass) choral arrangement with Piano accompaniment is accurately transcribed and appears in great quality print, with easy part writing throughout, so that singing this emotive song is as easy as possible. When Eric Whitacre was commissioned to write music for an animated feature, he was so struck by the words of Kipling's lovely poem that he immediately sat down to write a calm and subtle yet musically interesting piece. Unfortunately, the song was not used, but was later commissioned by the Towne Singers, and we are pleased to offer you this Seal Lullaby sheet music.

Book excerpt: Gli studi di Leonardo sul volo attraverso una trattazione sistematica e una descrizione del loro progredire nel corso del tempo. Il volume ricostruisce l'origine dell'idea leonardesca di realizzare il sogno del volo umano a partire dagli anni trascorsi a Firenze nella seconda metà del Quattrocento: un sogno che ha dovuto aspettare più di quattro secoli per essere realizzato. Descrive quindi gli sviluppi successivi della ricerca: dagli spettacolari progetti di macchine volanti elaborati nel periodo in cui Leonardo si trova a Milano, ospite di Ludovico il Moro, all'attento studio del volo degli uccelli portato avanti specialmente dopo il 1500. Un'indagine durata una vita intera, nell'utopia di una macchina in grado di imitare la natura.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Visionary Renaissance genius Leonardo da Vinci designed and sketched many inventions that were centuries ahead of their time. He was obsessed with flight theory and aerodynamics, so many of his drawings were of innovative flying machines—most of which were never built during his lifetime. They existed only as ideas in da Vinci's fertile imagination and as sketches in his famous notebooks—until now! This remarkable new collection of models by renowned paper artist Andrew Dewar presents replicas of 13 of Leonardo's most famous aviation inventions—most of which actually fly! Each realistic model provides insights into the incredible mind of Leonardo da Vinci. This kit is dedicated to da Vinci's remarkable life and amazing foresight in envisioning a world where flying machines are commonplace. This ebook includes: Full-color, step-by-step instructions for assembling the flying machine models Printable paper pieces for 13 different machines based on da Vinci's most original designs 11 of the models really fly! They include: The Ornithopter—a simple corkscrew that gracefully twirls to Earth The Kite Glider—an early version of a hang glider with a human pilot Leonardo's Flying Boat—look, up in the sky! It's a bird! It's a…boat? It's Leonardo da Vinci's crazy, mixed-up hybrid plane-boat! The Flying Fish and The Flitting Bird—two flying machines inspired by the natural world; both glide gracefully, just like their animal counterparts! Plus, 2 bonus display replicas: The First Helicopter—a detailed model that looks just like da Vinci's original sketch The Wing-testing Rig—the wing on this display model actually moves with the help of a lever!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Painter, architect, scientist, inventor—Leonardo da Vinci ranks as history's consummate innovator. Consumed with a boundless desire for knowledge, he investigated technical challenges that were hundreds of years ahead of his time. The power of flight was a particular source of fascination for him, and his close studies of bird anatomy and movement informed his development of the ornithopter — a winged, human-powered aircraft. With Leonardo's da Vinci's Flying Machine, you can create a fully working model of the inventor's amazing creation. This self-contained model kit features a 48-page book with details from Leonardo's notebooks plus full-color, easily joined components. Once assembled, the wings flap by turning a crank. Like the prototype, your model won't actually fly, but you'll have an amazing replica of one of the Renaissance genius's most famous futuristic inventions.
