Nocturnes
and the Fascination of Night Music“Ms. Tomes brings to her work a commanding authority and an undisguised appreciation. Her writing is never less than clear, sustained by a lifelong commitment to the piano as a practitioner and teacher.”—John Check, Wall Street Journal“Ingenious and astute. . . . Tomes describes the works of many of the composers here with deft strokes. . . . I learned a lot, and listened to new things and went back to old things. What more might a music book do?”—Stuart Kelly, Scotsman“Such a lovely idea for a book, and it’s executed wonderfully.”—Mathew Lyons, Broken Compass“Susan Tomes is a fine pianist who also writes with elegance, grace and erudition—quite a combination. . . .This fascinating study concludes with an image of the nocturne as standing on the threshold of ‘day mind’ and ‘night mind,’ ‘looking both ways—into the light and into the dark.”—Henrietta Bredin, Country Life“Beguiling . . . [with] those performer’s insights which are such a strength of her writing. . . . Delightful.”—Peter Davidson, Literary Review“This is a book you won't want to put down, full of fascinating facts and interesting anecdotes, unfailingly engaging and guaranteed to prompt you to rediscover music you thought you already knew, and to discover music you don’t.”—Matthew Ash, Presto Music“Susan Tomes writes with clarity and warmth, combining scholarly knowledge with the perspective of a practising musician. . . Rich in insight, detail, and musical examples, this engrossing, highly readable book is a must for musicians and music lovers."—Frances Wilson, Interlude“An enchanting, original voyage through musical history via the nocturne; miniature in form, but presaging two centuries of art and thought about night, sleep and dreams. Ingenious, and engaging.”—Dame Judith Weir, former Master of the King’s Music“‘Nocturnes are like the prefiguring of a dream . . . we feel we are in an enchanted place’—so says the author, magically leading us there in this wonderfully illuminating survey.”—Sir John Rutter, composer and conductor“From John Field's curtain-free windows in the St Petersburg twilight to Lowell Liebermann's urban dreams in contemporary America, Susan Tomes takes us on a fascinating, fantastical journey of nocturnal enchantment at the piano, and beyond.”—Sir Stephen Hough, pianist and author of Enough“Susan Tomes takes us on a fascinating journey into the night. Beautifully written, full of intriguing facts and attractively poetic descriptions, this unusual book is sure to be of interest to musicians and music-lovers alike.”—Steven Isserlis, cellist and author of The Bach Cello Suites

Architecting Microservices with Spring Boot and Spring Cloud
Build and Test Complete Microservices ArchitectureBuild production-ready microservices with Spring Boot and Spring Cloud. This book goes beyond APIs to cover the complete architecture behind production‑ready microservices with Spring Boot. You'll start with an introduction to microservices and implementation patterns, preparing to build three interdependent microservices—managing EV charge station inventory, charging session data, and payment information. Each one will invoke each other’s APIs, demonstrating their basic form without service discovery or load balancing. This will serve as a basic guide to building microservices with Spring Boot. From there, you will begin to build out the architecture using service discovery, API Gateway, centralized configuration, and fault resistance. Each section will add a new microservice component, such as Eureka for service discovery, building on previous revisions and testing each addition. The step-by-step approach guides you to introduce new functionalities while enhancing existing ones with an understanding of the rationale behind each decision. Not only will you gain enhanced development skills, but you will develop a deeper understanding of overall design and architecture techniques. What You Will Learn Understand core microservice patterns, advantages, and challengesGain insight into the complete microservices architecture with API Gateway (Edge Server), Service Discovery, Centralized Configuration and Security, Distributed Tracing, and Centralized Log AnalysisSecure microservices by setting up Spring Authorization ServerUnderstand fault tolerance in microservices using the resilience4j framework Who This Book Is For Intermediate Java developers with background knowledge of API development and familiarity with Spring/Spring Boot. This book will also interest developer managers, architecture/technical leads, and stakeholders who want to gain an understanding of overall microservice architecture and need to lead projects or make decisions based on the technology.

U2 and producer Brian Eno formed Passengers as a side-project during the preliminary recording sessions for U2's 1997 album, Pop. Their intention was to record a soundtrack for Peter Greenaway's 1996 film The Pillow Book as a warm up before the main Pop sessions. Though the plan did not come to fruition, Eno suggested they continue recording for imaginary films. U2 were unsure of the idea at first, but agreed after Eno told them that producing radio hits was not the goal of the collaboration.
