Dat is in het kort de gedachte achter de SWOP-serie. Deze zes bundels bevatten swingende speelstukken in de stijlen jazz, rock, pop, blues en latin - daarmee is het absoluut SWOPPEN geblazen! Op de play-along-cd staan de begeleidingen,die zijn ingespeeld door een heuse live-band (geen midi). Voor het spelen in een eigen band is er een boek met de piano/keyboardbegeleiding verkrijgbaar, inclusief de akkoorden voor gitaar en basgitaar. Op veel stukken in deSWOP-boeken zijn ook eenvoudige improvisaties mogelijk, zodat de eigen creativiteit een kans krijgt. Met de SWOP-serie is oefenen een kwestie van SWOPPEN!

Easy Swop enthält 12 leichte Stücke in den Stilen Jazz, Pop, Blues und Latin. Die Musiker lernen verschiedene Spielweisen und machen erste Schritte in Richtung Improvisation. Die passenden Begleitungen dazu gibtâ??s von einer echten Band auf der beiliegenden CD und im separat erhältlichen Buch für Klavier, Keyboard und Gitarre.

Câ??est lâ??amalgame des mots swing et pop qui a donné son nom ce style musical dynamique et tonifiant : le Swop. Cette savante équation fonctionne aussi bien dans le jazz et le blues que dans le rock ou la musique pop. Chaque volume de cette collection contient dix pièces toniques. Répéter se dit désormais â??swopper'.

Lâ??unione delle parole Swing e Pop ha dato il nome a questo stile musicale dinamico e tonificante: lo Swop. Questa equazione funziona altrettanto bene nel jazz e nel blues, nel rock e nella musica pop. Per scoprire, migliorare e perfezionare questo nuovo genere musicale, la collezione Swop si articola in sette raccolte distinte. Da Very Easy Swop a Work Swop (per creare un vero gruppo), lasciatevi guidare dallâ??accompagnamento musicale affidato ad un gruppo di professionisti.

Accordion - difficult

SKU: HL.49018091

Composed by Benjamin Schweitzer. This edition: Saddle stitching. Sheet music. Composed 2008/2009. 24 pages. Duration 15'. Schott Music #ED20759. Published by Schott Music (HL.49018091).

The title hidden tracks is ambiguous. First of all, the piece is almost throughout imagined as 'multi-track', with layers (in the sense of sound tracks) that partly overlay each other, partly suddenly appear from the background. The composition deals with 'hidden' lines, sounds at the perception threshold, with side effects of the accordion sound which -observed, so to speak, under a compositional 'microscope' - develop a special allure: that is the vertical component. The title has also a horizontal meaning: a 'hidden track' is a piece on a record without a track number that is not mentioned on the cover either. In most cases, a 'hidden track' follows after a longer break after the (presumably) last piece on the record; often this track contains strange sounds, noise or other surprising elements. 'Hidden tracks' are surrounded by a nimbus of the mysterious and subversive. This effect is being used rather often throughout the piece: again and again, it seems to have ended but continues after a pause. The expectation of the listener and the attentiveness also for the tiniest events rises; the performance receives an almost scenic character. hidden tracks was partly composed in August 2008 during a stay at the Kunstlerhaus Lukas in Ahrenshoop at the shores of the Baltic Sea. The work was accompanied by many walks on the beach - again and again, I caught a sight on tracks in the sand that became overlaid by other tracks, wiped out by the wind and the waves...
