 Cette bre?ve pie?ce a? vocation pe?dagogique veut d'abord mettre en relation deux interpre?tes, qui doivent a? la fois faire vivre musicalement leur propre partie, mais aussi apprendre a? s'e?couter pour interagir : il s'agit donc d'un pas important vers la musique d'ensemble, Techniquement simples, les parties ne?cessitent cependant un re?el sens de l'interpre?tation qui rend cette oeuvre plus recommande?e pour des e?le?ves de 2e cycle (ou des e?le?ves de 1er cycle tre?s avance?s),Derrie?re l'intention pe?dagogique, les auditeurs doivent surtout retrouver une e?vocation de toute interaction humaine primitive : deux individus, inconnus l'un pour l'autre, se de?couvrent, s'observent, se comparent, se jaugent et se confrontent, apprennent a? coexister, tout cela au sein d'une socie?te? qui les construit et les de?passe, Les percussionnistes symbolisent ces deux individus face a? face, tandis que la socie?te? est repre?sente?e par le traitement e?lectronique qui, comme elle, transforme en temps re?el les intentions et les interactions des protagonistes et leur donne ainsi une re?sonance, une signification sonore, parfois diffe?rente du geste initial, C'est pourquoi e?galement l'instrumentarium et les modes de jeu de chaque percussionniste sont a? la fois tre?s semblables et un peu diffe?rents de ceux de son partenaire - a? la fois son double et tout autre, a? l'image des individus qui forment socie?te?,? / Percussions

Facsimile Of The Draft Score and Paul Sacher'S Annotated Full Score Copy-Béla Bartók's Sonata for Two Pianos and Percussion composed in summer 1937 on a commission from Paul Sacher and premièred in Basel in January 1938 is incontestably one of the supreme creations of modern music. This publication with introductory essays by Felix Meyer Robert W. Wason Lászlo Vikárius and Wolfgang Rathert presents two major handwritten sources for this work from the holdings of the Paul Sacher Foundation: the draft score which offers a fascinating glimpse into the sonata's genesis and a 'whiteprint' of the fair copy which contains additions from Bartók and differs substantially from the definitiveversion at the end of the development section in movement 1. The volume also contains on an enclosed CD the radio recording of 1940 with Bartók and his wife Ditta Pásztory on the piano parts as well as a new recording of the sonata in its 'original' form played by the Bugallo-Williams Piano Duo with percussionists Matthias Würsch and Christian Dierstein.

Two companion CDs offer audio examples of all major points.

Used and endorsed by numerous college percussion programs, Reading Mallet Percussion Music by Rebecca Kite provides a solid foundation in the scales, arpeggios, and melodic patterns necessary for percussionists to get up to speed quickly in reading music in bass and treble clef. Kite has recorded each page of music which includes 30 technique exercises (more than three hours of music), that is included on the play-along CD. Students will hear what the music sounds like on the marimba and play along with Kite as they practice! There is also a special emphasis on developing speed reading techniques that gives each learner a fast track to reading fluency. The first two sections of the book contain original etudes by Rebecca Kite, written specifically for developing music reading music skills. Especially notable are the illustrations of the marimba keyboard with either a note or scale darkened so the student can identify them on the marimba on which they are playing. The music, all of which is composed for a four-octave marimba, is clearly written with large noteheads that will help the beginner in learning to read. The third section of the book contains thirty classic melodies that are presented in increasing difficulty and are arranged to use the entire four octave keyboard (including reading bass clef). The final section contains 30 technical exercises for two mallets for developing the skill to play the material in the book. For 2 mallets, 4.0 octave marimba. Here is what percussion teachers are saying about this book: 'Reading Mallet Percussion Music is an excellent book, well-written and organized for easy comprehension,' ---John Beck, Eastman School of Music (retired). 'Your two-mallet reading book is absolutely brilliant, and is now a required resource in my curriculum.' ---Kurt Gartner, Kansas State University. / Percussions

Les auteurs ont conçu - avec l'aide de professeurs d'instruments - une méthode permettant d'avoir un outil à la fois ludique et vivant pour l'enfant, et le plus précis possible pour le professeur, tout en permettant à celui-ci d'enseigner suivant sa propre sensibilité musicale. Les avantages, non exhaustifs, de la formation musicale par l'orchestre : - un rapport beaucoup plus direct et moins abstrait entre le solfège et la pratique instrumentale (tout l'apprentissage solfégique étant directement lié à l'instrument que l'élève a choisi) - passer par l'oral avant l'écrit - une formation auditive plus développée, due aux partitions interprétées par différents instrumentistes - une meilleure compréhension/analyse des oeuvres proposées grâce à la pratique instrumentale - développer l'autonomie de l'élève - la pratique instrumentale collective au sein de ce cours donnera l'envie (dès que l'élève aura le niveau suffisant) de rejoindre un des ensembles instrumentaux du conservatoire ou de l'école de musique Chaque volume de Symphonic FM se présente sous la forme d'un livre de l'élève (choisi en fonction de l'instrument pratiqué) et d'un livre du professeur. A partir du volume 5, nous avons changé la présentation des livres des élèves pour des raisons pratiques (densité de l'ouvrage). Il y a désormais : un cahier principal comportant ce qui est commun à tous les instruments une partie séparée spécifique à chaque instrument comportant les duos instrumentaux, les versions instrumentales des chants et les pratiques instrumentales. Ainsi, chaque élève achètera non plus le correspondant à la famille de son instrument mais le cahier de son propre instrument.
