Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Six Strings and a Note is a compelling and relevant portrait of the artistic life of Daniel Kwabena Boa Amponsah, known around the world by his stage name, Koo Nimo. Written with a curiosity, simplicity, and a keen memory for detail, the book takes us on a journey through Koo Nimo's work as an artist, and also as a man with a deep affection for his culture.From the quiet Ghanaian village where he grew up, to the popular concert halls, leading international universities and renowned institutions, Koo Nimo's life is nearly a century of extraordinary subplots to a story of hope, determination, and a boundless love for guitar music.Celebrated in his native Ghana for his infusion of traditional motifs into mainstream music, and his influence on the Addadam music styles and palm-wine guitar, Koo Nimo unveiled Asante culture to audiences all over the world.A fine blend of a vivid recollection of a memoir and an authenticity woven into a biography to give the reader a richer encounter with Koo Nimo's life lessons, challenges, and successes through his life and work.A father, a poet, a folk musician, a teacher, and a philosopher, Koo Nimo would say, 'I did not set out to become another [Andrés] Segovia. All I have is my culture, my story and my song, and I have to do my best for the sake of a generation who will be listening and learning long after I am gone.'A must-read for all international music enthusiasts.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - When we discover how to filter our thoughts and to purposefully interpret the events of our lives, we can lift ourselves up beyond our challenging times and far beyond any seductive distractions. A Poke in My Eye is the product of introspective dialogues and a drastic paradigm shift from some of the lowest points of life. In the middle of the mental chaos, the power of simple stories with extraordinary lessons is what gave birth to a symbolic poke to my eye- a sudden consciousness that there is more to live for, and even more reasons to hang on for one more day.For many of us, there will be the stumbling steps and seemingly unending stream of disappointing days. As tough as they may be, these confidence-shaking days are also what can force us to strive for the mental courage to push farther. There is no telling what can dovetail to our advantage and create unexpected opportunities.A Poke in My Eye is the lens through which I have had the opportunity to examine both memories and expectations, but most importantly, to not lose sight of the chance to go through a day with conviction and integrity. Only you and I can make the moments of our lives count.
