The BAND TIME series consists of a number of books containing easy pieces suitable for youth band. BAND TIME Starter is intended for the first year of band playing and includes four-part pieces in many different styles. The difficulty of the pieces increases in parallel with the material covered in the first part of the Look, Listen & Learn method. The first three works, however, are three-part pieces in order to accommodate the limited range of notes available at this stage. The BAND TIME series is suitable for various combinations of instruments provided that the parts are divided in a sensible way (for concert band, fanfare band or brass band). The material for altosaxophone, trombone and baritone/euphonium/bass clarinet is divided into parts 1 and 2 in order to cover all voices using the most popular instruments.

De serie Band Time is ontwikkeld om kinderen vroeg kennis te laten maken met het samenspel in een blaasorkest. Band time Starter maakt dit al in het eerste jaar mogelijk. Deze uitgave bevat vierstemmige stukken in diversestijlen- de eerste drie stukken zijn drie stemmig, aangespast aan de vaardigheden van de beginnende leerling. De moeilijkheidsgraad en de muzikale inhoud zijn gebasseerd op Horen, Lezen & Spelen. In de partituur staatuitgelegd hoe u de serie optimaal benut en hoe de instrumentatie in uw specifieke bezetting het best kan worden toegepast. Op de los verkrijgbare cd worden de stukken door een harmonieorkest voorgespeeld, zodat de leerlingen thuiseen goede indruk krijgen van hoe de stukken klinken. Ze kunnen zelf meespelen of ernaar luisteren. Dit zal de motifatie (en het studieresultaat) bevorderen.

Parallel zu den ersten Stunden Instrumentalunterricht werden die jungen Musiker mit den Stucken dieser Sammlung fur das Spielen im Anfangerorchester motiviert. BAND TIME Starter eignet sich fur das erste Jahr im Blasorchester und enthalt vierstimmige Stucke in vielen verschiedenen Stilen. Der allmahlich fortschreitende Schwierigkeitsgrad entspricht dem Stoff der Blaserschule Horen, lesen und spielen Band 1, kann aber auch gut unabhangig davon eingesetzt werden. Die ersten drei Stucke passen sich mit ihren lediglich drei Stimmen dem noch begrenzten Tonumfang an, uber den die Schuler in diesem Stadium verfugen. Aus dem gleichen Grund weichen manchmaldieselben Stimmen fur unterschiedliche Instrumente leicht voneinander ab. Geringfugige Abweichungen erklaren sich ausserdem aus manchen besonderen Bedingungen bei einem bestimmten Instrument, zum Beispiel schwierige Tonfolgen. Passend zu der Reihe ist eine CD erhaltlich, mit deren Unterstutzung die Schuler zu Hause mit richtiger Orchesterbegleitung spielen konnen. Ein schnellerer Erfolg ist damit gesichert!

L'Obiettivo della collana BAND TIME e quello di motivare i giovani musicisti a suonare in una banda principiante o giovanile. BAND TIME Starter e il suo seguito BAND TIME Expert, come anche i brani natalizi raccolti in BAND TIME Christmas propongono brani in vari generi musicali che seguono il livello di difficolta crescente proposto del metodo Ascolta, leggi & suona (possono essere usati anche separatamente). I brani sono eseguibili gia a partire da un organico di tre o quattro elementi. per ogni collana e disponibile separatamente un CD con gli accompagnamenti orchestrali.

This anthem from Brad Nix reverberates with joy from the very first note to the last! Opening with a short fanfare, one verse of â??Praise Him! Praise Him!â? is presented before the classic hymn, â??Oh, How I Love Jesusâ? makes a brief appearance. Then, the final verse of â??Praise Him! Praise Him!â? is sung as the music races toward a triumphant conclusion, complete with a glorious optional descant for sopranos. Your congregation will be moved to joyful worship as your choir presents this fresh arrangement of a time-tested hymn!

This work follows my Quartet No. 1 by five years. In terms of style and aesthetic aim, however, it seems light years away. Where the first work, a 28-minute, four-movement piece, took aim at cosmic conflicts and heroic resolutions, the present work is intended as a kind of divertissment. Harbor Music lasts a mere eleven minutes, is cast in a single movement with six sections, and should leave both performers and listeners with a feeling of good humor and affection.   The title comes from my experience as a guest in the magnificent city of Sydney, Australia. One of its most attractive features is its unique system of ferry boats: the city is laid out around a large, multi-channeled harbor, with destinations more easily approached by water than by land. Consequently, inhabitants of Sydney get around on small, people-friendly boats that come and go from the central docks at Circular Quay. During a week's visit in 1991, I must have boarded these boats at least a dozen times, always bound for a new location - the resort town of Manley, or the Zoo at Taronga Park, or the shopping district at Darling Harbour.   In casting about for a form for my second string quartet, a kind of loose rondo came to mind. Each new destination would be approached from the same starting-out point (although there are subtle variations in the repeating theme; it's always in a new key, and the texture is never the same). The result, I hope, is a sense of constant new information presented with introductory frames of a more familiar nature.   The embarkation theme, which begins the piece, is a sort of bi-tonal fanfare in which the violins are in G major and the viola and cello are in B-flat major. It is bold, eager, and forward-looking. The first voyage maintains this bi-tonality, beginning as a 9/8 due for second violin and viola in a kind of rocking motion -much as a boat produces when reaching the deeper water in the harbor. A sweet, nostalgic theme emerges over this rocking accompaniment. This music is developed somewhat, then transforms quickly into a much faster and lighter episode, filled with rising and falling scales (again, in differing keys). A scherzando interlude in short notes and changing meters provides contrast, and the episode ends with a reprise of the scales.   The second embarkation follows, this time in A major/C major. It leads quickly into a very warm and slow theme, in wide-leaping intervals for the viola. This section is interrupted twice by solo cadenzas for the cello, suggesting distant boat-horns in major thirds. The end of the episode becomes a transition, with boat-horns leading into the final appearance of the embarkation music, this time in trills and tremolos instead of sharply accented chords. The nostalgic theme of the first episode makes a final appearance, serving now as a coda. The rocking motion continues, in a lullaby fashion, leaving us drowsy and satisfied on our homeward journey.   Harbor Music was written for the Cavani Quartet, and is dedicated to Richard J. Bogomolny. Commissioned by his employees at First National Supermarkets as a gift, it represents a thank you from many of the people (including this composer) who have benefitted from his vision and generosity. An ardent advocate of chamber music (and a cellist himself), Mr. Bogomolny has for many years been Chairman of the Board of Chamber Music America. -- Dan Welcher.
