 Chapman, B. Grief, Denial and Rage: A Personal Odyssey with Beethoven's 'Moonlight' Sonata
          A downloadable package comprising (1) a 13-page PDF document presenting Chapman’s
          personal odyssey with the sonata, including the rationale for his distinctive interpretation of
          the first movement in the context of a sonata that forms an integrated tone poem expressing
          Beethoven’s emotional response to the tragedy of his growing and irreversible deafness, and
          (2) an
 MP3 file containing Chapman's new recording of the whole sonata and featuring an
          interpretation of the first movement claimed to be uniquely
aligned with the markings in
          Beethoven's Autograph scores.

 Chapman, B. The Hurdy-Gurdy Man:  The Sting-in-the-tail of Müller's "Die Winterreise"
          A downloadable package comprising two MP4 files and two MP3 files of new recordings in
          both English and German of a re-composed version of the final song from Schubert's
          Winterreise together with a 10-page PDF document.  The recordings are by Nathan Lay
          (baritone) and Brian Chapman (pianist and translator) and the PDF presents
the rationale
          and compositional method for addressing the sting-in-the-tail missing from Schubert's
          setting, followed by
full vocal scores of the re-composed song in both High-Voice and
          Low-Voice versions.
