       強烈或輕柔、熱情或平靜、激昂或舒緩……
  鋼琴總是能夠藉由音色的高低、節奏的快慢、音量的大小等等,
  傳達出許多情緒,表達人們的喜怒哀樂。
  但是你知道嗎?最早的鍵盤樂器,並非一開始就能演奏出如此多變、精彩的豐富音色。

  在17世紀,出生於義大利帕多瓦的克里斯多佛里,是一名出色的樂器製造家,同時也是一位調音師。他的天賦引起了梅迪奇家族的費迪南多王子注意,王子希望自己的宮廷可以成為義大利的音樂中心,於是王子邀請克里斯多佛里到他的宮廷為他工作。

  在那裡,克里斯多佛里為王子修復與製造了無數的樂器,但是,他並不滿足於自己的工作。因為當時的大鍵琴與小鍵琴,都只能發出有限的琴音,音樂家無法透過改變觸鍵的力道,進而改變聲音的大小。克里斯多佛里希望能製造出一臺可以彈出聲音變化的琴,並演奏出充滿情感的生命樂章。

  但是,他究竟該怎麼做呢?

  本書透過獲獎無數的傳記作家伊莉莎白.魯希與榮獲兩次凱迪克大獎的畫家瑪尤莉.普萊斯曼聯手打造,在作家多重的考證下,精心撰寫出優美細膩的文字;而畫家活潑、輕快的插圖,為這本書做了完美的詮釋。邀請讀者跟著克里斯多佛里的腳步,一起重回17世紀的義大利,穿梭於充滿教堂鐘聲與美妙琴音的佛羅倫斯街道上吧!

書籍特色

  ★重現克里斯多佛里的生平與當時的義大利
  作家透過當時的報紙、日記、書本、研究紀錄等第一手資料與第二手資料,甚至實際走訪當地,逐步建構出克里斯多佛里的一生,以及文藝復興時期的義大利。包括生活中有可能會聽到的聲響、人們實際說過的話語及評論,讓我們彷彿穿梭時空回到17世紀。搭配文字與圖像解說,也使讀者更能夠了解克里斯多佛里的故事,以及他是如何努力並鍥而不捨的發明與改進鋼琴。

  ★精心設計的文字與細節
  作家運用優美又豐富的詞藻,淺顯易懂的說明了當時世上最盛行的兩種鍵盤樂器──大鍵琴與小鍵琴──其中的差異以及鋼琴的發明史。在內頁中,還加入琴譜上傳達演奏強弱的音樂術語,如pianissimo、crescendo、piano、forte等等,呼應內文情節與轉折,加強閱讀效果與層次,讀來更加精采且印象深刻。

  ★精采詳實的附錄資料
  克里斯多佛里發明的鋼琴現在還存在嗎?它們與現代的鋼琴有什麼不同?從克里斯多佛里的生平、鋼琴大事記……一直到作家的考察研究紀錄,作家耗時多年的研究成果,完整精華都呈現在本書中!詳實的考察與研究,書中的每一個細節都有跡可循,甚至幾乎在每頁中引用了當時的第一手資料,完整用心的重現了關於克里斯多佛里的一生。

  ★學習尊重與欣賞樂器
  不管是樂器或是日常生活中的工具、器具,每一項發明的背後,都是由前人付出了大量的心血、時間,透過一次次不斷的研究、嘗試與改良,才有可能成為今天我們所看見的模樣。在讀完繪本後,除了讓讀者認識鋼琴發明的過程,也可以從中學習到發明家鍥而不捨的努力精神,以及讓孩子學會尊重與欣賞樂器。

  ★真的聽得見三百年前的鋼琴聲!
  除了畫面與文字的精采呈現,作家特地附上義大利鍵盤樂器製造師的網站,網站上可以聽見最早被發明出來的鋼琴琴聲。除此之外,還收錄了大鍵琴與小鍵琴的琴聲,以及不少古典音樂與現代音樂的曲目,邀請讀者共同來聆聽、欣賞優美的鋼琴音樂。掃描書中的QR碼,閉上眼感受看看,你是否也感受到充滿情感的琴聲了呢?

Really wanted to like this soap
Size: 3.5 Ounce (Pack of 6)
I waited until I went through 5 of the 6 bars of soap in this pack. It was very well put together with each bar individually wrapped with a cellophane and a nice paper wrapper. The scent upon opening the box was pleasant. Sniffing each wrapped bar to get an idea of how they smelled left me a little skeptical. So here’s the pros and cons: PROS Small bars but they last a long time. 4 of the 6 are scrubbing bars, meaning they have exfoliating bits of walnut shells in them, which for me, blue collar worker, I really liked. Packaging is nice. CONS THEY ALL SMELL THE SAME! I don’t know why this is, but I can only attribute it to the packaging and them being so close together. Pretty disappointing. The walnut bits accumulate in the bottom of the tub and need to be rinsed down the drain. All in all, decent soap without any noticeable differences in smell. Good enough for one purchase, but I’ll be buying a different brand next time.

Do not buy.
Size: 3.5 Ounce (Pack of 6)
As in my headline, DO NOT BUY this soap. there are a few reasons why I say that and I will cover them all here, but first and foremost, I say that because this soap is MADE IN CHINA..... now just take a moment to think about this. It is a soap, very basic common ingredients here, and its still cheaper for this company to have this made all the way in China and then ship it over here to the US and sell it, rather than just making it here (like almost all other soap companies do) in the US. It is TERRIBLE soap. it is made with the cheapest ingredients that you can find, and one of my other reasons for not liking it is because it smells like CHEMICALS. the scents do not smell like what they are labeled as. They have a very heavy chemical smell to them all, and then some very slight floral and other weird scents that I cant describe. The tobacco scent has absolutely no "tobacco scent" to it at all and the same goes for the leather. the last reason why I say to not buy the soap is because its a complete rip off. We already know that it cost nearly nothing to make this, because they are outsourcing the manufacture of one of the most common substances there is (hand soap) overseas to China, but they still have the nerve to charge a premium price for VERY SMALL bars of soap. the bars are not even that big, they are small when compared to other soaps like this. do yourself a favor, pass this one by and go for a different listing. if you buy this one, you will only be purchasing regret...
