Being a fascinatingly unique composer, Olivier Messiaen pushed the conventions of composing to its very limits. The composer's music remains ever-popular and The Technique of my Musical Language provides the key and necessaryknowledge into the study of his delightful music. Olivier Messiaen (1908-1992) was admitted to the Paris Conservatoire at the mere age of 11, where he won many prizes. As a passionate ornithologist, as well as organist andcomposer, many of Messiaen's works depict bird song. His music is rhythmically complex and harmonically and melodically distinct, often using modes of limited transposition. It is for these reasons that the composer compiled TheTechnique of my Musical Language. The book contains text with musical examples, describing unique elements of his music, such as ametrical music, his rhythmic notations and his modes of limited transposition, among many others.For all fans of Messiaen, The Technique of my Musical Language is essential to the understanding of the composer's much loved music. / Méthodes et pédagogie / Formation musicale / Théorie - harmonie / LEDUC

Nel percorso formativo di ogni musicista ci si trova sempre a dover fare I conti con la teoria il solfeggio e l?armonia. Chissa quanti musicisti hanno abbandonato gli studi o rinunciato ad approfondire questi argomenti solo perche ritenuti troppo complicati o addirittura superflui rispetto allo studio della tecnica strumentale. Quasi fossero un codice segreto riservato a pochi o un fastidioso ostacolo da dover superare per poter finalmente suonare. La teoria il solfeggio e l?armonia sono pero Elementi Assolutamente Necessari. Si tratta solo di cambiare approccio e il linguaggio e riuscire a spiegarli in modo pratico! Ho volute quindi realizzarein collaborazione con Fabio Anicas un manual per tutti I musicisti che potesse finalmente applicare a teoria solfeggio e armonia le stresse forme forme di comunicazione che ho utilizzato in tanti anni per spiegare in maniera pratica le techniche per la chitarra. Quale miglior Sistema quindi se non spiegare direttamente I concetti in una serie di veideo (oltre 5 ore in totale) disponibili online e raggiungibili attraverso QR code (da mobile) e link (da computer)!!! Tutte le videolezioni sono quindi gia pronte per essere caricate su dispositive portatili come iPhone iPod e altri apparati portatili per poter studiare in modo dinamico e in qualsiasi luogo. Il manual è diverso in 20 Unit (lezioni). Alla fine di ciascuna lezione troverai gli esercizi per approfondire e verificare se I concetti sono stati assimilate! Gli esercizi sono stati pensanti ed organizzati in modo vivace e dinamico per permetterti di comprendere ed interiorizzare le varie nozioni per poi svilupparle nel tuo percorso di musicista. Trovi poi le soluzioni degli esercizi per poter verificare l?esattezza di cio che hai fatto! In sostanza un metodo che possa aiutare I musicisti nel percorso formative o aiutare chi gia suona a comprendere meglio il linguaggio musicale nella sua essenza. Un nuovo modo di fare didattica: Questo manual non ha supporti multimediali allegati e quindi ha un costo decisamente piu basso della versione con DVD. Questo per andare incontro a tutte le esigenze: da quelle economiche a quelle logistiche poiche sono sempre di piu a
