It is not only the great success of Nathan Evans' re-release of The Wellerman on social media that is responsible for the great popularity of sea shanties and naval songs. Such songs create a unique mood, a touch of adventure and wanderlust for the big, wide world. Hardly anyone can elude it and with Vahid Matejko's Sea Shanty Play-Alongs there are now the most beautiful sea shanties and naval songs skillfully arranged as an instrumental play-along series for recorder, flute, clarinet, saxophone, trumpet (opt. baritone T.C.), trombone (opt. baritone B.C.), violin, and accordion (piano).
The varied arrangements have a wide stylistic range and offer echoes from rock, Latin, funk, big band to orchestral and Caribbean influences. Thus, each song has its own musical and instrumental appeal, to which the parts and/or solos specially composed by arranger Vahid Matejko also contribute. The original polyphonic choral vocals are replaced by polyphonic instrumental backings.
Each of the ten titles was recorded live by excellent professional musicians and is available in two different versions: — a demo-track which features a live violin performance by Julia Carola Jech, the female world music violinist and specialist for tango music and
— a minus-one mix for you to play-along.

“I like the idea of exploring the dramatic, ritualistic side of music. In The Mirror With Three Faces, one can look at three different faces or roles of the same person or at three distinct personalities – each with its own face. Each character (i.e. instrument) may be isolated, in conflict, or in harmony with others and itself. This trio explores individuality and ensemble, harmony and conflict, one in three or three in one – that is the ambiguous nature of this work, structured in the form of a triptych.” (Lera Auerbach).

Fantastic repertoire for fun that also builds reading, listening, and ensemble skills! Intended for first- and second-year players, this creative collection presents seven original rounds, each written from the scrambled notes of a traditional tune that students are challenged to identify. Whether in the classroom or on the concert program, the mystery delights one and all. Designed for maximum flexibility, these pieces may be performed with as few as four like instruments, or with as many instruments as desired, divided into four groups. Upper strings can be combined, or lower strings can be combined. For an ensemble that contains both upper and lower strings, ensemble accompaniment parts have been provided. The score contains a reproducible piano accompaniment as well. With so many options for instrumentation, Seven Mystery Melodies offers a unique, easy-to-use collection for teachers and beginning string students.
