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 alto saxophone, 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 Stücken dieser Sammlung für das Spielen im Anfängerorchester motiviert. BAND TIME Starter eignet sich für das erste Jahr im Blasorchester und enthält vierstimmige Stücke in vielen verschiedenen Stilen. Der allmählich fortschreitende Schwierigkeitsgrad entspricht dem Stoff der Bläserschule Hören, lesen und spielen Band 1, kann aber auch gut unabhängig davon eingesetzt werden. Die ersten drei Stücke passen sich mit ihren lediglich drei Stimmen dem noch begrenzten Tonumfang an, über den die Schüler in diesem Stadium verfügen. Aus dem gleichen Grund weichen manchmaldieselben Stimmen für unterschiedliche Instrumente leicht voneinander ab. Geringfügige Abweichungen erklären sich außerdem aus manchen besonderen Bedingungen bei einem bestimmten Instrument, zum Beispiel schwierige Tonfolgen. Passend zu der Reihe ist eine CD erhältlich, mit deren Unterstützung die Schüler zu Hause mit richtiger Orchesterbegleitung spielen können. Ein schnellerer Erfolg ist damit gesichert! L'Obiettivo della collana BAND TIME è 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 difficolt crescente proposto del metodo Ascolta, leggi & suona (possono essere usati anche separatamente). I brani sono eseguibili gi a partire da un organico di tre o quattro elementi. per ogni collana è disponibile separatamente un CD con gli accompagnamenti orchestrali.

Trio Flex is a clever concept that offers you a range of possible options. As well as a demo version played by live instruments, the enclosed CD contains two play-along tracks for each piece. One track features the combo only, and the other track features the combo plus the second and third parts of the trio. Peter Kleine Schaars has arranged ten well-known numbers for three wind instruments in various styles and genres. Play the melody with the combo on the CD, or play the trio version with the other two recorded parts. That will sound great in itself. But you can also form a trio with two co-players, and have yourselves accompanied by the combo on the CD. No matterwihich variation you choose, get ready for a musical experience that will amaze your audience! Trio-Flex is een uitgekiend concept dat verschillende mogelijkheden met zich meebrengt. De meegeleverde cd bevat - naast een live ingespeelde demoversie - van elk nummer twee begeleidingstracks. Op de ene track hoor je alleenhet combo en op de andere track hoor je het combo met daarbij de tweede en derde stem van het trio.Fun Favorites Peter Kleine Schaars bewerkte tien bekende nummers voor drie spelers in diverse genres en stijlen. Speel demelodie met het combo op de cd, of speel de trioversie met de tegenstemmen. Dat klinkt al geweldig. Maar je kunt ook met twee medespelers een trio vormen en je door het combo op de cd laten begeleiden. Welke variant je ook kiest:bereid je voor op een muzikale belevenis die je publiek versteld zal doen staan!Trio-Flex ist ein cleveres Konzept, das verschiedene Möglichkeiten bietet. Neben einer live eingespielten Demoversion enthält die beiliegende CD zwei Mitspielversionen jedes Stückes. Eine wird nur von der Combo gespielt, die andere von der Combo zusammen mit der zweiten und dritten Stimme des Trios.Peter Kleine Schaars arrangierte zehn bekannte Titel für drei Flöten in verschiedenen Genres und Musikstilen. Die Melodie zur Combo auf der CD gespielt oder die Trioversion mit den Gegenstimmen auf der CD - das alleine klingt schon wunderbar. Am schönsten ist allerdings, wenn sich zwei Mitspieler finden und dann im Trio zur Combo-Begleitung auf der CD musiziert werdenkann. Ganz egal, für welche Variante man sich entscheidet: Es wird eine musikalische Erfahrung, die jedes Publikum begeistert! Trio Flex est un concept malin qui offre plusieurs possibilités de jeu. Chaque pièce est enregistrée dans trois versions : une version intégrale, jouée par un vrai combo, suivie de deux versions play-along qui correspondent une version combo seul et une version combo avec les les voix 2 et 3. Peter Kleine Schaars a arrangé dix morceaux orientés grand public, de styles et de genres variés, pour trois instruments vent. Il y a plusieurs options de jeu : jouer la ligne mélodique avec l'accompagnement du combo seul, jouer la ligne mélodique avec la version combo + voix 2 et 3 ou encore former un trio avec deux amis jouant du même instrument et swinguer avec les musiciens ducombo. Quelle que soit l'option choisie, vous ferez sensation auprès du public! Fun Favorites è una pubblicazione basata sul concetto di TRIO-FLEX; si può quindi fare musica con tre strumentisti, da soli con il combo, o da soli con il combo e le parti del trio.

David Ashley White has a wealth of musical experience both as a composer and a teacher....A Lenten Prayer , with an optional flute part, has a pastoral quality which effortlessly moves through different keys and recalls perhaps the Englishness of a composer such as Vaughan Williams. It is useful to note that the composer sanctions a number of different performance options including unison voices throughout.--David Halls, Choirmaster of Salisbury Cathedral, October 2003.
