The Shortest History of Music: From Bone Flutes to Synthesizers, Hildegard of Bingen to Beyoncé - 5,000 Years of Instrument and SongNo other art is as popular or pervasive as music. With just a few clicks, anyone can cue up (and critique) Chopin or Cher, The Bangles or The Beatles even the brand new Beyonc. But things weren't always this way. In this brisk, breakneck history under 300 pages, award winning composer, author, and broadcaster Andrew Ford replays the dramatic evolution of music, from early oral songs to the first orchestras (and their wealthy patrons) and from the

Incredibly hydrating but unbearable scent.
Size: 1.3 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I love all Avène skin barrier creams, recovery lotions and i just purchased this "Hydrance" cream. Texture is nice, it's unbelievably hydrating but the scent is overwhelming. It caused me a headache. So I decided to return it. Then I thought I'll give it another try and Oh my.... For the love of God, remove that awful scent. The reason I love Avène product is because theyre unscented, except this one I guess :/

A little pricey but works very well. Wheels roll smoothly and umbrella stays put.

wheels are perfect
Size: Large, Color: Black
Really happy with this umbrella base so far. It feels sturdy and well-made, especially once filled—it definitely has the weight to keep my umbrella in place, even on windy days. The wheels are a huge plus. I can move it around the patio without struggling, which makes adjusting for shade super easy. The square design also looks clean and doesn’t take up too much space. Setup was simple, and it fits my umbrella perfectly. Overall, it does exactly what I needed—strong, stable, and easy to move. Great buy.

Easy rolling base
Size: Large, Color: Black
I purchased the umbrella base to enabling the ability to hold our umbrella and easy maneuver the umbrella on a paver patio. The base supported the umbrella and rolled sufficiently on the paver surface. However I did have an issue when readying the base for storage that the plastic umbrella pole support caused a black staining liquid on the pavers when it spilled on the patio
