    <![CDATA[We've all had the experience of being touched by a song that seemed to capture exactly what we were feeling, needing to hear, or hoping to believe. Michael McLean has brought us many such songs, classics like &quot;From God's Arms to My Arms to Yours,&quot; &quot;You're Not Alone,&quot; &quot;If Only You Believe in Yourself,&quot; &quot;What I Need,&quot; &quot;Hold On, the Light Will Come,&quot; and dozens of others. This book includes a full-length music CD. Now, for the first time in book form, he gives us the stories behind the songs. These inspiring and uplifting songs touch on topics that include adoption, loneliness, depression, hope, holding on, relationships and finding joy.  Some of these stories tell of incidents or experiences that inspired the writing of a song. Some tell how another person's life was affected by the song after it was written. And all are revealing of the heart and spirit of a man who has shared his gifts and his life in ways that have blessed listeners all over the world.]]>

    <![CDATA[The 24 pieces in THE WELL-TEMPERED VIOLIN were composed in order to introduce every key to the young violinist. This is not a system to introduce reading, but rather a system that will strengthen reading skills. Within this framework, the popular dances and forms of the Baroque era are represented throughout the publication. A simple and straightforward text explains each piece and will enlighten and inform the student about this important repertoire. It is suggested, especially further into this book, that the teacher preface each piece with the corresponding scale and arpeggio.]]>
