Ruth und Naoyuki Taneda beschaftigen sich seit vielen Jahren mit der Musikerziehung von Kindern ab drei Jahren. In dieser Schule zeigen sie auf, dass es moglich ist, bei Kleinkindern uber das Medium Farbe (farbige Noten) das absolute Gehor zu entwickeln, also jene Horfahigkeit, die bisher als angeborenes Privileg einiger weniger, besonders begnadeter Musiker galt. Die Autoren betrachten den Mythos absolutes Gehor ganz nuchtern und zeigen, welche Moglichkeiten er fur die Musikerziehung am Klavier bietet. Sie weisen damit einen neuen Weg fur den fruhinstrumentalen Unterricht.

The piano, the concert grand piano as a percussion instrument, as a string instrument, as a plucked instrument? Why not? - here are resonant surfaces and there are strings. In fact, it seems obvious to pluck the strings, to produce harmonics, to play in the interior space with mallets, to use bow hairs, e-bow and bottleneck.But how do I find my way in this style of playing beyond the keys? Is that even allowed? What if I break something in the process? And where is this or that spot, and what do you call it? What works convincingly, and where are the difficulties? Klaus Steffes-Hollander answers these and other questions in this book.

The pieces contained in the present volume provide a link between the easy, dance-like movements contained in the Anna Magdalena Bach Book and the two-part inventions. The text corresponds very largely to that of the original source; missing dynamic and tempo markings must be supplied by the player himself in accordance with the character of each piece. The training of the student's feeling for style must begin here, his technical capabilities being taken into account. The occasionally simplified ornaments can also be treated in this manner. The fingerings are intended as suggestions for small hands; they must, of course, be adapted to the particular player's hands, taking tempo and phrasing into consideration. The editor has attempted to solve the problems of phrasing and articulation by means of his own suggestions, but without cluttering the text too much. Various alternative solutions (as indicated in no. 3) are possible, and should - insofar as they make musical sense- be realized in practice. By independently choosing a phrasing and writing it into the music himself, the student improves his unterstanding of the polyphonic structure and the form. Heinz Walter, Salzburg, Spring 1977.

The Travel Preludes are three short pieces ideally conceived for opening a concert.The first, Urgent Call, is like a bell calling the audience and stressing the importance - and at times the urgency - of making music. The second prelude, The Art of Taking a Seat, has to do with that carefulness, kindness and attention the attendance of a concert requires from the audience. Because to take a seat, to concentrate and to open heart and mind to the music is an art everybody should practice. The third piece, In Praise of Discretion, is an homage to all those musicians, who enter the stage without pretensions or theatrics, being able to concentrate on nothing but the music itself. (Nicola Campogrande, July 2021 ). Sono tre brevi pagine, idealmente pensate per aprire un concerto. La prima, Urgent call, e come un campanello che richiama il pubblico e gli ricorda in modo deciso quanto sia importante - e talvolta davvero urgente - la pratica della musica. La seconda, The Art of Taking a Seat, ha a che fare con la cura, il garbo, l'attenzione che si richiedono a chi assiste a un concerto. Perche sedersi, concentrarsi, aprire il cuore e il cervello alla musica sono davvero un'arte che tutti dovrebbero conoscere. La terza, In Praise of Discretion, e un elogio agli interpreti che salgono sul palcoscenico senza enfasi, senza teatralita, e sanno concentrarsi sulla musica. (Nicola Campogrande, luglio 2021)
