Par CANAT DE CHIZY EDITH. Cinq miniatures, cinq petites pièces s'enchaînant les unes aux autres, suivant l'itinéraire proposé par ces cinq haikus : 1. Au clair de lune, je laisse ma barque pour entrer dans le ciel Kôda Rohan 2. Lucioles ! Lucioles ! dans la rivière les ténèbres coulent Chiyo-ni 3. Mille petits poissons blancs, comme si frétillait la couleur de l'eau Konishi Raizan 4. L'eau devient cristal, les lucioles s'éteignent. Rien n'existe Chyio-ni 5. Le grand jour blanc me dénude l'âme, feuilles mortes Watanabe Suiha Ces 'instants-poèmes' que sont les haikus où sont à la fois révélés l'immuable et l'éphémère m'ont suggéré une musique brève, fugitive, elliptique, dont le propos est surtout d'entrer en résonance avec l'univers poétique évoqué.

Leopold Mozart was only able to understand his son?s musical genius in terms of it being a God-given wonder: ?That my boy [...] knows all of this with his 8 years that could be expected of a man of forty years. In short: whoeverhas not seen or heard it cannot believe it?. In 1764 Wolfgang composed six sonatas in London possibly after the model of Johann Christian Bach?s ?Opus 2? that can either be played as piano trios as violin sonatas or simplyon the piano. ?Royal? sources were consulted for the edition: the copy in the British Library bears the handwritten note: ?This Volume belongs to the Queen 1788?.With marked and unmarked string parts.

Complete Edition-22 Fiddle tunes from the golden age of sail featuring dance tunes shanties (work songs) recreational ?forebitters? and composed melodies which give the landlubber?s take on the romance of the sea. Edward Huws Jones explains that ?during the heyday of sail the busiest sea-routes of all were the North Atlantic crossings especially between Liverpool and the American cotton ports; it was the heady mixture of African-American and Irish music which gave birth to the mid-century flowering of the sea shanty. Meanwhile English-speaking vessels were sailing to the Cape India Australia and many other far-flung destinations carrying a two-way traffic of song and dance.?Thetunes in this collection can all be played as unaccompanied Fiddle tunes which is how they would have been played in the days of sail. But as in other books in the Fiddler series the flexible format allows a wide variety of different combinations and ensembles. Suitable for intermediate and elementary standard performers.

a cura di - edited by Rina You. Par TIRINDELLI PIER ADOLFO. The edition of the Andante e Polacca for violin and piano published here was realised from an autograph manuscript held in the library of the Conservatory of Santa Cecilia in Rome. An inspired melodic vein, with a cantability typical of Late Romantic Italian compositions, characterises the piece, especially in the first part. The Polacca distinguishes itself for its virtuosity: rapid scales, brilliant bowings and open string passages keep the bowed-string player engaged during the second and longest part of the piece. The recovery of this composition has occurred during a period which gives particular importance to the rediscovery of works composed in Italy around the turn of the twentieth century, rarely performed in concert series, which can only be fully appreciated through their promotion and dissemination in the form of musical editions and recordings. / Niveau : Avancé / Répertoire / Violon et Piano

Viennese music has become almost synonymous with Johann Strauss II and his great waltzes. But of course there were other luminaries: his father Johann Strauss I his talented brothers Josef and Eduard as well as their colleagues friends and rivals. This collection includes music by some of these; and apart from waltzes we have polkas (slow and fast) a couple of melodies from operettas and a march. The selection ranges from shorter eminently playable miniatures to a handful of more extended and challenging arrangements. The waltz kings were first and foremost fiddlers. They led their orchestras from the front instrument and bow in hand. As a young man JohannStrauss II used to practise his Violin in a full-length mirror so he would look every inch the part. They knew how to write for the Violin how to make it sing and dance and this helps to make the repertoire a perfect foil to the other volumes in this series. The arrangements in this collection can be performed as solos duets or trios or by larger ensembles. In fact here are all the resources to recreate a Viennese café orchestra! The full range of traditional fiddle repertoire is now at your fingertips! Using these generous collections you can create your own ceilidh barn dance jazz club Sarajevo street-café or Gypsy gathering. Some of this music is familiar some more exotic but all of it is absolutely authentic faithfully arranged and above all hugely enjoyable. Each title in the series is available in two formats: the Violin edition (with an optional easy Violin part and Guitar chords); or the complete edition which also includes both Keyboard and Violin accompaniments. Either format is hugely flexible which means the music can be played as solos duets or trios as well as with larger ensembles. Edward Huws Jones has travelled extensively researching fiddle-playing traditions. In each book he explains the background of the particular musical style giving his own suggestions for a lively performance. And to help recreate the spirit of the music every book in the series is beautifully illustrated.
