Par DOWLAND JOHN. During his lifetime John Dowland was one of the few English composers whose fame spread throughout Europe. He has never been entirely forgotten although his music was almost completely ignored during the whole of the eighteenth century and most of the nineteenth. The early twentieth century saw a dawning recognition among scholars and specialists of the rare quality of his work. This is a comprehensive and exhaustive collection of Dowland's compositions for the Lute, with critical commentaries, lists of sources and biographical notes, as thoroughly compiled and edited by Diana Poulton and Basil Lam. The music is presented in both keyboard notation and Lute tablature. / Niveau : Intermédiaire à Avancé / Répertoire / Luth

Cette Méthode de Luth Baroque peut vous donner les bases techniques et musicales nécessaires à l’obtention d’une structure assez solide et complète du jeu du luth baroque. Et c’est là tout l’enjeu et le défi de l’écriture de cet ouvrage : donner, au plus grand nombre de passionnés, l’opportunité de s’exprimer à travers le luth baroque, et ce, indépendamment de leur niveau d’apprentissage. Notre livre est destiné non seulement à celui qui n’a jamais joué d’un instrument de musique, mais aussi au guitariste avisé qui veut s’initier aux mystères du luth baroque ! Mode d’emploi Notre Méthode de Luth Baroque est divisée en trois parties. La première partie, plutôt théorique, aidera à mieux comprendre la façon de jouer la musique écrite pour le luth baroque. Nous avons jugé indispensable d’avoir des connaissances élémentaires de solfège occidental mais aussi de la tablature (forme de notation musicale spécifique au luth). Ces connaissances, insuffisantes si étudiées de manière isolée, ont été enrichies d’un lexique des pièces instrumentales ainsi que de biographies de la plupart des compositeurs de musique pour luth baroque à 11 et 13 chœurs. En deuxième partie, nous avons dédié tout un chapitre à l’étude de la technique et de la production sonore du luth. Riche en photos et détails de toutes les étapes techniques que nous devrons franchir, ce chapitre est, sans aucun doute, le plus important de toute notre Méthode pour bien comprendre l’univers sonore du luth baroque ! Ensuite, nous vous proposons 21 exercices, tous d’un niveau élémentaire, mais progressifs, accompagnés de plusieurs pièces de musique. Vous allez d’abord jouer des mélodies pour ensuite ajouter les basses, et seulement après commencer à jouer les ornements. En troisième partie, nous avons choisi près de 250 pièces pour luth baroque à 11 et 13 chœurs. Ces pièces, divisées en trois niveaux, sont d’un degré de difficulté qui s’échelonne du niveau « débutant », « moyen » à « avancé ». Nous avons, tout comme à l’époque baroque, séparé ces pièces selon leurs tonalités et leur nom. Aussi, nous n’avons choisi que très peu de tonalités différentes, afin que le luthiste débutant puisse travailler l’essentiel de son instrument, au lieu de perdre son temps à essayer de s’accorder tout le temps et de jouer des morceaux bien trop complexes pour son niveau. Il n’y a pas de mauvaise musique mais, parfois, il y a de mauvais musiciens ! Faire de la musique n’est simplement pas jouer des notes et réaliser quelques acrobaties, souvent sans intérêt. Un musicien « mûr » se plaît le plus souvent à jouer une simple mélodie et à jouir des merveilles sonores de son instrument ! Nous espérons que cette méthode pourra aider ceux qui n’ont pas accès à un professeur (même si nous leur conseillons d’aller en voir un le plus régulièrement possible), mais aussi tous les professeurs n’ayant pas suffisamment de matériel pour faire travailler, d’une manière systématique, leurs élèves. Bon courage à tous ! Miguel Yisrael - formerly Miguel Serdoura, now carrying the surname of his mother - was born in Lisbon, where he began his musical and artistic career, earning his Diploma in Classical Guitar in 1994. In 1995, he moved to Paris, where he studied the lute with Claire Antonini in the Early Music Department of the Conservatoire Supérieur de Paris - CNR. He also took part in several master classes in his discipline, with Rolf Lislevand and other prestigious artists. From 1999 to 2004, he completed his musical education at the Schola Cantorum Basiliensis in Basel, Switzerland with the grand maestro Hopkinson Smith. As a soloist, Miguel Yisrael has given recitals in France, Portugal, United-Kingdom, Germany, Belgium, Switzerland, China and USA. In 2000, he took part in a television documentary devoted to the lutenist Hopkinson Smith, broadcast by Arte, Mezzo, Classica, RTBF and TSR. He currently lives and teaches baroque and renaissance lute in Paris, where he gives frequent concerts/lectures in the framework of the “Musicien au Musée” program of the Musée de la Musique - Cité de la Musique in Paris. Miguel Yisrael performs on lutes built by Cezar Mateus, Princeton, USA, and with strings from Mimmo Peruffo, Vicenza, Italy. He recorded his first solo CD for the Dutch Label Brilliant Classics in 2008.

TO ALL LOVERS OF CUBAN FLUTE MUSIC (A TODOS LOS AMANTES DE LA FLAUTA CUBANA) This book dedicated to the flute in popular Cuban music is a method in which I have tried to include all the technical and stylistical aspects that are of interest to the musician who wishes to become acquainted with the world of Latin music. On the one hand, the book presents the most important genres of our music where the flute plays an outstanding role as a solo instrument; on the other hand, it introduces the most essential characteristics of the individual genres the flutist should be familiar with when performing Cuban music. This method mainly focusses on technical aspects comprising the knowledge of the clave, articulations, embellishments and the like, presented along with exercises, examples and the analysis of flute solos. I would like to recommend you this book written with deeply-felt dedication by one of Cuba?s greatest contemporary flute players. This excellent work, I have had the pleasure of viewing before its publication, has been created by supreme effort by a good friend of mine who I have worked with at work sessions, on stage and in the recording studio for a long time. I hope that this wonderful concept will help to give worldwide publicity to an instrument of fundamental importance to Cuban music of all times. (Orlando Valle ?Maraca?)
