I'm Your Man The Life of Leonard Cohen Audiobook screenshot
By Sylvie Simmons, read by Joshua Pollock
Unabridged edition 2013 | 18 hours and 38 minutes | ISBN: n/a , ASIN: B00CPMSU80 | MP3 64 kbps | 563 MB

The legend behind such songs as "Suzanne", "Bird on the Wire", and "Hallelujah" and the poet and novelist behind such groundbreaking literary works as Beautiful Losers and Book of Mercy, Leonard Cohen is one of the most important and influential artists of our era, a man of powerful emotion and intelligence whose work has explored the definitive issues of human life - sex, religion, power, meaning, love. Cohen is also a man of complexities and seeming contradictions: a devout Jew, who is also a sophisticate and ladies' man, as well as an ordained Buddhist monk whose name, Jikan - "ordinary silence" - is quite the appellation for a writer and singer whose life has been anything but ordinary. I'm Your Man is the definitive account of that extraordinary life.

Great Masters Tchaikovsky His Life and Music Audiobook screenshot
By Professor Robert Greenberg
2002 | 6 hours and 8 mins | ISBN: 1565853784 | MP3 96 kbps | 266 MB

The life of Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky (1840–1893) exhibits as close a link as you will find anywhere between an artist's inner world and the outward products of that artist's creative activity.
As a man, Tchaikovsky was defined by and indivisible from his music, which became an outlet for all the shifting moods of his turbulent soul. As Professor Robert Greenberg says, "If Tchaikovsky felt it, it found a way into his music."
As an artist—and it is worth recalling that he was the first full-time, formally trained, professional composer in Russian history—Tchaikovsky walked a fine and difficult line between his Romantic penchant for expression and the demands of Classical structure.
This delicate balancing act—between heart and head, emotion and reason, release and control, Russian expressive content and German technique—is a key to his music that you find amply illustrated by Professor Greenberg's musical selections and commentary.
