The clarinet method op. 63 by Carl Baermann from 1867 is still a standard work in classical clarinet education today. The thoroughly revised new edition aims at reviewing the educational concept, which is still valid today, for modern lessons, adjusting the music and texts, and sensibly complementing the teaching contents.The editor who draws on many years of experience as a clarinettist in an orchestra and university lecturer of clarinet has succeeded in adapting the valuable teaching material to the requirements of today while maintaining the basic methodology. The result is a total of 7 volumes:Clarinet Method Vol. 1 and Vol. 2 (ED 21761, ED 21762)Clarinet Method Vol. 1 and Vol. 2, with 2 CDs each (ED 21761-50, ED 21762-50): The CDs contain the piano accompaniment for the performance pieces, with and without clarinetTune Book 1 and 2 (ED 21763, ED 21764): piano score of the method's performance pieces, with additional inserted clarinet partDaily Exercises (ED 21765): systematic scale, interval and chord exercises in all keys, complemented and published separately from the original methodDue to trilingual nature of all editions (German, English, French), they can be used universally.About the revision:The musical text is based on the first edition of the method. Only a few differences concerning the articulation as well as some misprints and typographical errors were revised. By deleting the historical fingering instructions for the German fingering system, the clarinet method not only has a clean and, compared to the original, more clearly structured layout, but can also be used universally. The content of the text and the performance directions of the original were linguistically modernized and occasionally extended by further ideas from the teaching practice, such as concepts for warming up, breathing exercises, literature suggestions or tips for daily practising. Further additions of scale and triad studies in all major and minor keys make this method a comprehensive and thorough work of study which not only serves as teaching material for young and adult beginners, but is also a valuable compendium of scale exercises and studies for advanced musicians and is ideal for training velocity and dexterity.The Clarinet Method Vols. 1 and 2 contain not only scales and technical fingering exercises but also Baermann's popular performance pieces, like Romanze (No. 14), which are ideal as performance pieces, yet at the same time train both technique and musical expressiveness. The systematic scale, interval and chord exercises in all keys, however, were removed and are published separately in the volume Daily Exercises (ED 21765) for reasons of clarity.The two textbooks are available with or without CDs. The editions with CDs contain two audio CDs each which were recorded live by the editor and which contain a classic audio version of each performance piece as well as a pure piano version for playing along. / Clarinette

Par JARRELL MICHAEL. La série des 'Assonances' de Michael Jarrell représente comme les 'Sequenze' de Berio l'idée de cycle, bien qu'elles ne soient pas forcément écrites pour instrument seul. Le compositeur les considère comme ses 'cahiers d'esquisses', 'comme un droit: celui de me concentrer sur une idée et de m'y sentir libre'*. Assonance pour clarinette solo - créé le 22 août 1984 à l'Aspen Festival (Colorado) par Nicholas Cox - est la première de cette série, elle illustre parfaitement l'idée exprimée par le compositeur. On ressent la limitation des moyens musicaux, bien que la virtuosité instrumentale ne soit quant à elle pas vraiment limitée... Michael Jarrell part de quelques éléments de base, telle cette première cellule que l'on va retrouver (au même titre que les autres éléments initiaux) sous différentes présentations: à un tempo plus lent, avec des trilles et des notes intercalées régulièrement ou encore sous la forme d'une reprise variée, très peu de temps avant la fin de l'oeuvre. L'ensemble de la pièce repose sur un réseau très précis de relations entre différents éléments musicaux relevant soit de phénomènes difficilement perceptibles consciemment (comme les précédents), soit, au contraire, de sections bien distinctes les unes des autres que l'auditeur perçoit facilement de par leurs relations d'opposition, de contraste ou de complémentarité. Le retour varié du début fait finalement place à une coda essentiellement fondée sur la dimension polyphonique de l'instrument, qui était sous-jacente depuis le début. L'oeuvre présenta ainsi deux 'parcours' simultanés: l'un, plutôt circulaire, qui revient finalement aux éléments du début après avoir suivi une certaine trajectoire, l'autre qui fait aboutir une idée musicale (la polyphonie) développée régulièrement et progressivement. Assonance illustre bien l'idée de son titre - une forme de rime ancestrale -, mais sa richesse, sa rigueur et sa poésie vont bien au-delà d'un procédé ! Pierre Michel, extrait du livret du disque Solos (aeon). * Danielle Cohen-Lévinas: 'Entretien avec Michael Jarrell', in Les Cahiers de l'Ircam, coll. 'Compositeurs d'aujourd'hui', 1992, p.11. Dans Assonance, pour clarinette (1983), Jarrell, à la manière des Sequenza de Luciano Berio, écrit des états instrumentaux qui laissent supposer qu'une seule clarinette suffit à en dévoiler plusieurs. Parti comme souvent d'un motif aux contours sériels, il décline, comme des planches d'architecte ou des esquisses de peintre - idée gouvernant toute la série des Assonances -, des situations amorcées mais jamais terminées où alternent une vision du son qui transite par la virtuosité de l'instrumentiste et une sophistication de l'écriture, plus proche d'une rhétorique de l'ornementation que d'une syntaxe. Mais au lieu d'expérimenter, comme Berio dans la Sequenza pour clarinette, toutes les ressources de l'instrument, Michael Jarrell travaille avec ses virtualités, sans nous montrer ses fonctionnements, occupant l'espace de la partition en se laissant guider par la contrainte du dessin à inventer pour que la clarinette sonne au-delà de sa reconnaissance effective. Jarrell restreint le projet musical il se fixe des règles. En revanche, il multiplie les difficultés techniques, estimant qu'il est inutile de proposer de nouveaux effets si les musiciens ne peuvent les réaliser. L'utopie du timbre s'arrête là où commencent les contraintes de l'instrumentiste. A ce titre, il mélange les catégories: le précis et l'imprécis, le décisif et l'indécis, le fiable et le douteux. Michael Jarrell insiste sur le fait qu'il existe, par exemple, deux genres de sons multiphoniques: ceux entre parenthèses à caractère imprécis, ceux sans parenthèse qu'il faut jouer avec une grande exactitude. La question du même et du différent trouve avec le timbre un écho particulièrement éloquent. Si un mode de jeu, un énoncé rythmique ou une cellule mélodique peuvent signifier tout à la fois une volonté sonore et son contraire, c'est que la syntaxe qui charpente cette esthétique du simulacre est à la fois souple et rigoureuse, intuitive et cérébrale, improvisée et écrite, harmonique et sérielle, etc. Assonance pour clarinette seule est une pièce emblématique, elle représente en raccourci ce mélange de contraintes et de libertés où se façonne l'oeuvre de Jarrell.

These methods provide complete courses for players of all ages guiding students from their first note to 'classics' together with compositions by contemporary writers. Each book is accompanied by high quality rhythm section tracks recorded on compact disc. Right from the start students can enjoy authentic jazz sounds playing in the company of professionals. With step-by-step instruction and a progression of specially written pieces the fundamental elements of good technique are introduced alongside the rhythmic subtleties of jazz. Improvisation is encouraged from an early stage and is given direction through the systematic study of scales and arpeggios and advice onear-training and chord patterns. With supplementary suggestions for listening and reading and an Appendix containing all the chord progressions for 'live' accompaniment of the tunes The Jazz Methods are ideally suited to both students working alone and those learning with a teacher. John O'Neill has a solid understanding of jazz and how it can be taught. I highly recommend his educational jazz materials. (Jamey Aebersold) ...a rare opportunity for a new player (or a more experienced one) to develop a really musical facility. A rare addition to the jazz improvising library. (Lee Konitz international jazz saxophone soloist) - includes 'classics' by Thelonious Monk Charlie Parker Sonny Rollins and Horace Silver. -...this book contains a true method covering all phases of the subject. (Jimmy Giuffre multi-instrumentalist composer arranger and teacher)It is good to see a tutor treating each aspect of playing seriously and thoroughly and can be warmly recommended even for us non-jazzers.
