Once you start reading this utterly fascinating book it is nigh impossible to put it down ... This is a gem Dame Evelyn Glennie Vic Tandy was a level-headed scientist, but there was no denying it: at this late hour in his lonely lab at Coventry University, he kept seeing a grey apparition out of the corner of his eye. Bathed in a cold sweat, his heart pounding in his chest, he questioned his own rational mind - could this really be a supernatural encounter? What on Earth could be sending such an eerie shudder through his body? Strange frequencies are all around us - in fact, there may be no limit to the marvellous power of vibration. So catch a wave with musical adventurer Richard Mainwaring and take a wild ride across the keys of his infinite piano. Along the way, youll join the quest for the worlds loneliest whale, whose tragically out-of-tune song has haunted oceanographers for decades. Youll discover what strange melodies are hidden in rats whiskers and rainbows. And youll find out how vibrations good and bad govern more or less everything around you.
