Nueva edicion de la coleccion Lenguaje Musical de Felix Sierra que abarca los 4 cursos de Grado Elemental y 2 de Grado Medio. Cada curso consta de dos volumenes: A y B. En esta nueva edicion se han ampliado el numero de ejercicios dedicados, tanto ala formacion ritmica y de lectura de notas-escasa en la edicion original-, como a la entonacion de melodias. Los ejercicios de entonacion incluyen un sencillo acompanamiento pianistico, con el que se pretende un triple objetivo: facilitar su estudioestabilizando la afinacion, ayudar a la interiorizacion de las funciones armonicas y aproximarlos a esa musica que, como se ha dicho con fina ironia, tambien existe fuera de los conservatorios. No se trata, con ellos, de descifrar una partitura. Apesar de lo limitado de los medios empleados, se puede -y se debe- realizar con estas piezas en miniatura una labor artistica. El CD que se incluye con el libro, aunque nunca puede suplir al profesor, si que, al menos en parte, cumple esta funcion.Otra novedad la constituye la inclusion del arreglo para instrumentos escolares de una de las canciones con que se inicia cada unidad didactica, canciones que siguen siendo la materia principal que se desarrolla en el resto de la unidad. Canciones ymelodias a una y dos voces con acompanamiento de piano, ejercicios de ritmo y lectura de notas, percusion corporal, pequenas obras escritas para instrumentos de laminas, nociones de teoria, juegos musicales, practica de la improvisacion y la creacionmusical... y todo ello con un riguroso planteamiento didactico en el que la armonia es el eje vertebrador de todas las actividades que se proponen. Ayudar a descubrir el apasionante mundo musical debe de ser, a juicio del autor, la tarea principal delmaestro de musica. Esperamos con estos libros, favorecer esta dificil labor. Lenguaje Musical, Lecciones De Entonacion y Educacion Audivita son las colecciones de Felix Sierra que contemplan la ensenanza del lenguaje musical. En un ambito de decima(LA a DO) y tratando de que se interiorice la modalidad, se trabajan en este cuaderno las tonalidades de DO, mayor y menor y LA, menor y mayor. Ademas de las figuras presentadas en el cuaderno anterior, en este se incluyen la semicorchea y lasincopa, el compas de seis por ocho, la clave de FA y se sigue trabajando con las funciones armonicas basicas: tonica, dominante y subdominante.

Monsoon Toccata by Anthony Gilbert. 3'33; for solo piano. In memoriam Janet Owen Thomas (1961-2002). In 1988, Janet Owen Thomas met up with me in Sydney at the end of a short organ-recital tour - possibly her last before devoting herself entirely to composing. We returned to England together, doing a rapid circular tour of Northern India on the way. Alighting from the plane at Delhi we were hit by the whirling wind and torrential rain of the seasonal monsoon, and early the following morning there was also a minor earthquake. This experience determined the spirit of the music, and Northern Indian Raga determines the purely technical approach, with thequasi-improvisatory toccatalike textures acting as decoration to a slow-moving, widely-spaced modal top line which almost loses control of the overall shape at the mid-point - a reflection of the impact of those natural phenomena.

'In August [Bartók] heard the fifty-year-old Áron Balogh playing the peasant flute in Gyergyóteker patak in Cs k district. He arranged three songs under the title From Gyergyó, for tilinkó [peasant flute] and piano, and the piano transcription of this occasional composition presented to Stefi Geyer as 'Three Hungarian Folksongs from the Cs k District'. In all three versions Bartók retained the rich ornamentation of the flute version, and added a modal accompaniment to the melodies in a church mode. After the first two rubato melodies, notated in alternating time signatures, he concluded with a melody in strict 'giusto' rhythm. It is in this latter that the pentatonic skeletonbeneath the diatonic surface can best be felt. Bartók notated the pentatonic vocal version of this melody on this same field trip, and arranged it in the series 'Eight Hungarian Folksongs'.' (HCD 32524 Bartók New Series Vol. 24, István G. Németh).

This elementary piece in 4/4 meter frequently alternates phrases of staccato and legato. The modal tonality is enhanced through multiple accidentals that serve as an excellent study in reading sharps and naturals. The steps, skips, varied dynamics, and adventure-like modal sound help the music portray the foreign world of teeny creatures and objects observed through a microscope. An optional duet accompaniment provides a solid harmonic foundation.
