What is the Seventh Dragon? In Japanese folklore it is "the listener" who remains invisible to us, elusive as solutions to the fundamental puzzles of human existence. A practical guide to understanding the complexities of piano tuning, this remarkable book also helps readers search for answers to the greater mysteries of life. The first edition, from Metamorphous Press, was released in 1985. It was widely praised by major media including National Public Radio, The New York Times, Library Journal, Publishers Weekly, ALA Booklist and many others. In 1986 it received the Western States Book Award for creative nonfiction. UP released a new edition in 2005, with fresh new material, illustrations, index and bibliography, renewing a timeless book for a new generation of readers. A portion of the proceeds from this Special Edition will benefit the National Music Museum located on the campus of The University of South Dakota.
