The evolution of Fingerstyle jazz Guitar continues today with Martin Yalor Tomy Crook Jim Nichols Duck Baker and Woody Mann. Each player has developed a distinctly different approach to interpreting and writing jazz solo Guitar by listening intently to numerous other musicians and composers - Pianists Horn players Bassists and singers as well as many Guitarists in jazz blues and other styles. What distinguishes them from more traditional jazz Guitarists (who more or less function as a linear voice in an ensemble) is their ability to play (or imply) all aspects of the music - rhythm chords bass and melody - without accompaniment. Records by Charlie Byrd Lenny Breau George Van Eps Laurindo Almmieda and Joe Pass have set a very high standard for solo fingerstyle jazz Guitar and it is from this vantage point that the solo flights of Taylor Crooks Nichols Baker and Mann take wing. Their performances not only demonstrate their technical brilliance and imagination they are a testament to the enduring power and beauty of jazz Guitar in its current evolution as a major instrumental force in American music.

Par MOZART WOLFGANG AMADEUS. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's horn concertos: the Mozart expert Henrik Wiese edits the central work genre of Viennese classicism according to the current status of international Mozart research. Mozart wrote the Horn Concerto K. 417 - like the other works of this genre as well - for his horn-playing friend Joseph Leutgeb. The jokes which the composer made at Leutgeb's expense are wellknown. For example, he called the dedicatee a 'donkey” in the autograph, and, as Henrik Wiese evidences in his preface, Mozart also occasionally enjoyed a bit of tomfoolery with the soloist in the musical text as well. Otherwise the editor's task was anything but amusing. The main source - the autograph score - is incomplete: missing are the close of Movement I as well as the entire slow middle movement. For these two sections, Wiese used a copy of the score from the archive of the publisher Johann André. The unusual circumstance that Mozart generally left the horn part almost unmarked recurs in the Concerto K. 417 and was deliberately maintained in the Urtext edition./ Répertoire / Conducteur

Discovery Series - Grade 1.5 Probably every student was thrilled and inspired by this Tom Hanks film and will love to play the music. Johnnie Vinson's arrangement is carefully designed for second and third year players.

Horn Quintet in Eb major K. 407 (386c)-We not only owe three of Mozart's horn concertos to his friendship with Ignaz Leutgeb; the solo part of this unusual chamber music work was also written especially for him. Instead of having two violins the accompanying stringquartet has two violas which complement the dark and warm timbre of the horn and lend the work a unique tonal effect. Echoes of motives from the 'Abduction from the Seraglio' allow us to suppose that it was composed around thesame time as the Singspiel. As the autograph is missing this edition is based on the first edition. In addition the critical apparatus provides a careful evaluation of the secondary sources affording important insights intoMozart's intentions.
