Royal Wind Music The-Two Suites by Nicholas Lanier and Charles Coleman S.S.S/A.A/T.B.

Avec Variantes, Exemples Et Conseils Pour Jouer Et Improviser Sur Tous Instruments. Par AUTEURS DIVERS. Anne Fuzeau Classique vous propose des ouvrages sur la musique en général.Le présent recueil propose un panorama de ces basses obstinées, chansons et danses de la Renaissance et du Baroque qui circulaient d'une publication ou d'un manuscrit à l'autre, de pays en pays et sur lesquelles, au fil des décades et même des siècles, les compositeurs n'avaient cesse de proposer des variations, les musiciens d'improviser.Se référant aux compilations de ' standards ' utilisés par les jazzmen, Pascale Boquet et Gérard Rebours présentent ici, sur une centaine de pages de musique, 50 pièces dans leur version de base, avec leurs transpositions, et un choix de 210 variantes et airs dérivés les plus significatifs - le tout ponctué d'explications, de commentaires, de références et de notes historiques, et précédé d'une généreuse analyse théorique et pratique de l'improvisation. Sans oublier le glossaire, la liste des sources et la bibliographie.Classées par ordre progressif, les pièces de ce recueil peuvent être utilisées à trois niveaux : - - - - - - Le débutant jouera les airs, souvent faciles, tels quels. - - - - - Le musicien un peu familiarisé avec le sujet pourra commencer à écrire quelques diminutions ou variations. - - - - - L'expérience aidant, il pourra ensuite se lancer dans l'improvisation, ' sans filet ', comme il se doit.De plus, tout instrument et groupe instrumental, ancien ou moderne, pourra aborder ce répertoire dans lequel : - - - - - - Les instruments mélodiques (flûtes, violons, violes, hautbois,...) auront la charge de - jouer et de varier ces airs et ces danses. - - - - - Les instruments polyphoniques (claviers, luths, guitares, harpes) pourront les accompagner de nombreuses façons à partir de la basse chiffrée, mais aussi en réaliser des versions autonomes en jouant et variant les deux parties ensemble. - - - - - Les instruments graves (basse de viole, basson, violoncelle,....) assureront la ligne de basse sans oublier d'y introduire eux aussi variations et diminutions.Enfin, ce sera l'occasion d'explorer une partie conséquente du répertoire de base des XVIe et XVIIe siècles, d'approfondir certains aspects harmoniques, mélodiques et stylistiques propres à chaque époque, chaque pays, voire chaque auteur, et d'élargir son approche de la musique ancienne en y introduisant cette dimension pas encore assez familière : l'improvisation.Sommaire : Avant-ProposGenèse'Standards'Principes éditoriauxImproviser (G.R.)Le geste improvisatoireDiminutions, fredons, passages, gloses, divisionsImproviser, selon les traitésUne leçon de diminutionsConseils pratiques pour improviser (P.B.)Analyse de deux grands standards : - - 1-La Passemezzo (P.B.) - - 2-Les folies (G.R.)50 standards Renaissance et BaroqueGlossaireSources : - - 1-Traités - - 2-Sources musicales - - 3-Compilations musicales manuscritesBibliographieLes auteursRemerciementsIndex des 50 StandardsIndex des compositeurs et des ouvrages / Niveau : Facile / Date parution : 2006-01-01/ Recueil / Traîté

By popular request these songs and pieces from the 5 volume English edition (by Margaret Murray) of Carl Orff and Gunild Keetman???s ???Schulwerk??? are now available in CD format. Singers and speakers are from a variety of English Welsh and German schools with professional musicians playing instruments. The Schulwerk idea is one that transplants well founded as it is on the basic elements of language music and dance with which children are encouraged to play and improvise imaginatively so that through the use of simple forms they will be able to make their own music. The material is not restricted to Britain but also includes songs from Canada and the United States. Theinstrumental ensemble is directed by Carl Orff and Hermann Regner. All possible instrumental resources suited to this elemental style of music making have been used. The barred percussion instruments that carry Orff???s name such as Glockenspiels Xylophones and Metallophones are used as well as simple small percussion instruments and the larger ones found in the conventional orchestra. The older forms of wind instruments are favoured such as Recorders Sorduns and Crumhorns. Brass instruments such as Trumpets and Trombones are also used. The Guitar Cello and Double Bass have an important role and where available the older forms of string instruments such as the Viol or Viola da Gamba blend well into the ensemble.
