About TCW Resources
TCW Resources exists to create music teaching materials designed to inspire teachers and students to reach beyond the ordinary. We are committed to producing quality products that utilize sound educational principles. With the knowledge that music can enhance every child's life, we offer students and teachers fresh new tools that will promote their love of music and make music a valued gift for the rest of their lives.
TCW Resources was founded in 1993 by Laura G. Zisette, Charlene Zundel, and Kathleen Lloyd to create teaching materials that are thorough, easy to use, and fun and stimulating for students. The materials are age- and level-appropriate, well-paced, and employ multiple approaches to accommodate varied learning styles.
TCW materials are piloted through the Utah State University Youth Conservatory, a music preparatory program for community children. This conservatory serves over 250 students, ages 5-18, through group theory classes and individual piano lessons. Its curriculum offers weekly group theory classes and individual piano lessons as well as many other extra-curricular programs. The National Association of Schools of Music (NASM) stated that the USUYC should be a national model for music preparatory programs.
TCW materials are used in many other preparatory programs and conservatories around the United States and Canada.

Agnes Lakos writes the following about her four-volume piano tutor, enlivened with cheerful illustrations by Christina Diederich: A friendly piano tutor, without dry finger exercises, full of little masterpieces and colourful as a picture book! Piano playing can only be learnt with attractive, good quality works from the very beginning. J. S. Bach composed masterful character pieces for his children and his many pupils: 18th-century piano tutors contained a selection of performance pieces, so that from their first encounter with the piano, learners could feel that they were performers. This is precisely what we are aiming at too. The piano pieces in the four volumesrepresent every stylistic period of music history. The numerous works for three or four hands can be performed together with the teacher or with another pupil. Agnes Lakos schreibt uber ihre mit Christina Diederichs lustigen Bildern illustrierte vierbandige Klavierschule: Eine freundliche Klavierschule, ganz ohne trockene Fingerubungen, aber voll mit kleinen Meisterwerken, und sie ist bunt wie ein Marchenbuch! Das Klavierspiel kann man vom Anfang an nur an schonen und guten Werken erlernen. J. S. Bach komponierte fur seine Kinder und zahlreiche Schuler meisterhafte Charakterstucke: Die Klavierschulen des 18. Jahrhunderts wahlten Vortragsstucke aus, mit deren Hilfe sich der Schuler vom ersten Kennenlernen an mit dem Klavier als Interpret fuhlen konnte. Genau das ist auch unser Ziel. Die Klavierstucke der vier Hefte vertreten beinahealle Epochen der Musikgeschichte. Die zahlreichen Werke fur drei oder vier Hande konnen mit dem Lehrenden oder den Mitschulern gemeinsam gespielt werden.

Claves are musical instruments of Cuban origin. The first claves used were on the docks and shipyards of Havana where simple wooden pegs were clacked together to accompany the rhythms of songs played by dock workers. The claves functioned like rhythmic guides to the song; they began by organizing the rhythmic accompaniment of the music. As time passed, the amount of adapters of the claves and performers increased. Claves are often used to play a repeating rhythmic figure throughout a piece and it is also found in African and Brazilian music. The claves are used in virtually all Cuban music genres, and has since been universalized. Today, this instrument is commonly used in many musical genres. Children can easily learn to play our IQ Plus wooden claves by simply strike one stick against the other. Holding the clave on top of gripped fingers makes the sound more clear. This instrument will teach children the basic rhythmic patterns of any type of music. Children will enjoy exploring different ways to play them, holding them differently, even tapping them against the floor. The claves do not have specific pitches and the resulting sounds may vary while the instrument is being played. Children will learn how to modulate sounds based on where the clave is struck.

Art Sheinberg has discovered a gem from the late English Baroque keyboard literature and expertly scored it to sound as if it were originally for strings. The violin ll and viola parts are often doubled, as are the cello and bass parts; there are essentially three parts throughout. This gives a full and balanced sound which accommodates uneven instrumentation. Violin l parts are in third position much of the time, and alternate fingerings given for the other parts will keep other advanced players busy. The piece is in D major throughout, with the exception of brief excursions into A and B minor. Full of rhythmic drive and sparkling counterpoint, the piece is a sure winner with students and an excellent vehicle to teach detached style and ensemble independence. This title is available in MakeMusic Cloud.
