Some of his most notable contributions were the invention of the symphonic poem, developing the concept of thematic transformation as part of his experiments in musical form and making radical departures in harmony. The Symphonic Poem page set contains 16 rich papers and 65 unique elements.

Funky Soul

2011-08-14T10:44:00.000+02:00

Funk is a music genre that originated in the mid-late 1960s when African American musicians blended soul music, jazz and R&B into a rhythmic, danceable new form of music. Funk de-emphasizes melody and harmony and brings a strong rhythmic groove of electric bass and drums to the foreground. Many of the most famous bands in the genre also played disco and soul extensively. I used to love funky so much in the 70s! And do you remember the disco hair? If yes or not, try the retro style Funky Soul page set! It contains 18 rich papers and 72 elements and available at Scrapbook Elements.

Ladies Of The Castle

2011-07-31T14:04:00.010+02:00

Knights of the medieval era were asked to "Protect the weak, defenseless, helpless, and fight for the general welfare of all." These few guidelines were the main duties of a medieval knight, but they were very hard to accomplish fully. Rarely could even the best of knights achieve these goals. Knights trained in hunting, fighting, and riding, amongst other things. The wives of the knights are referred to as 'ladies'. The Ladies Of The Castle page set is dedicated to them with 18 rich papers and 77 elements. Available at Scrapbook Elements.
