Par LOEB DAVID. David Loeb's Japanese Tone Poems for piccolo alone collects particularly evocative Japanese works from his ouevre - Nightcolors (P-15), Piccolo Perspectives (P-21), and Snowsounds (P-24), unique in their vivid portrayal of ancient mountainous forests, winter scenes, and ekphrastic musical descriptions of images inscribed on woodblocks and ceramics, a double-set of tone poems, perhaps. Despite the name, this collection also includes two works that use Dutch and Korean imagery, due to their tight integration and relation to Japanese sources and Japanese musical ideas.David Loeb's Japanese Tone Poems for piccolo alone collects particularly evocative Japanese works from his ouevre - Nightcolors (P-15), Piccolo Perspectives (P-21), and Snowsounds (P-24), unique in their vivid portrayal of ancient mountainous forests, winter scenes, and ekphrastic musical descriptions of images inscribed on woodblocks and ceramics, a double-set of tone poems, perhaps.

A generous volume of orchestral excerpts and extracts for practice compiled by Trevor Wye and Patricia Morris. This is a methodical approach to piccolo technique designed to help the flautist transfer the playing techniques of the flute to the piccolo.
