Swing-style music for violin lessons? A delightful idea in itself, but suitable literature is somewhat thin on the ground. This is where the Little Swingies collection comes in: sixteen new pieces by Joachim Johow—some full-spirited and passionate, others gentler in character—introduce the student step by step to playing in the swing style. In addition to the violin part, this edition includes an easy-to-play piano accompaniment: and on top of this, MP3 recordings of both demo performances and backing tracks are available online. Little Swingies will add new momentum to violin lessons and performances alike.Swingmuziek voor de vioolles? Een prachtig idee, maar het materiaal daarvoor is dun gezaaid. Little Swingies biedt de oplossing: zestien nieuwe stukken van de hand van Joachim Johow sommige temperamentvol, andere rustiger van karakter laten de leerling stap voor stap kennismaken met het spelen in swingstijl. Naast de vioolpartijen bevat deze uitgave ook eenvoudige pianobegeleidingen: bovendien zijn de mp3-opnamen van zowel de meespeel- als begeleidingstracks online te downloaden. Little Swingies geeft vioollessen en toonmomenten een verfrissende nieuwe impuls.Musik im Swing-Stil für den Geigenunterricht? An und für sich eine reizvolle Vorstellung, jedoch ist Spielliteratur, die dafür geeignet wäre, dünn gesät. Hier setzt die Sammlung Little Swingies an: Sechzehn neue Stücke von Joachim Johow mal temperamentvoll, mal eher sanft im Charakter führen die Schüler Schritt für Schritt in das Spiel im Swing-Stil heran. Die Ausgabe umfasst neben der Violinstimme auch eine gut spielbare Klavierbegleitung: zusätzlich stehen sowohl Demo- als auch Mitspielaufnahmen aller Stücke im MP3-Format online zur Verfügung. Little Swingies kann dem Geigenunterricht wie auch dem Vorspiel neue Impulse geben.Du swing pour les cours de violon ? Cette idée est en elle-même séduisante, mais il existe peu de partitions adaptées. C’est pourquoi la collection Little Swingies vient combler un vide : seize nouvelles pièces par Joachim Johow certaines pleines de feu et d’entrain, d’autres plus sereines initient l’élève, pas pas, aux rythmes ternaires. Outre la partie violon, cette édition comprend un accompagnement piano facile : et, pour compléter le tout, des exemples d’interprétation et des pistes d’accompagnement sont disponibles en ligne sous forme de fichiers MP3. Little Swingies apportera un nouvel élan aux cours de violon tout comme aux auditions.

Hans Winterberg's extraordinary life was written in two chapters, one Czech and one German, split right down the middle by the experience of the Shoah, which Winterberg, unlike his colleagues Ullmann, Krása, Haas and Klein, miraculously survived. In 1947, the Prague-born composer moved to Munich, where he worked for the Bavarian Broadcasting Corporation. As a student of Alexander Zemlinsky and Alois Hába, he belongs both to the Czech tradition following Janácek and to the circle of the Second Viennese School. He saw himself as a bridge builder between Western and Eastern culture. The circumstances under which Winterberg was able to compose during the war years are still unclear. Although his “mixed marriage” initially saved him from deportation, he had to perform forced labour and was eventually sent to the Terezin ghetto in January 1945. The Suite for Violin and Piano was composed in 1942, the year in which both Winterberg's mother and his piano professor Thérèse Wallerstein were murdered by the Nazis. Compared to the violin sonata from 1936, the Suite is much more condensed, lasting less than seven minutes. A melody dominated by chromatic turns and expressionist harmony lend the work its melancholy character, which gives way, however, to an almost irrepressible defiance in the rhythmically percussive last movement.

With Berlin Music, Brett Dean wrote a threefold homage: to the classical duo consisting of violin and piano; to the violin virtuoso Midori, for whom the piece was written; and to the city of Berlin, where he lived between the mid-1980s and 2000 and whose rich cultural life he owes much to his development as a musician and composer. The first four, relatively short movements of the five-movement work form a suite of character pieces, which is followed by a longer final movement. In summary, this turns out to be the actual main movement from which all motifs and harmonies emerged in a compositional manner. This includes tuning down the G side by a whole tone - an apparently small difference, but one that has a major effect on the timbre and resonance of the instrumentand suddenly makes previously impossible interval sequences playable. In addition, the violin in the third movement (a moto perpetuo in which Dean bows to Ravel's violin sonata) has to play with a practice damper, while the pianist changes the instrument and plays on a standing piano that is dampened by a pedal and placed next to the concert grand Expressing nervous energy in tight college spaces.

When the Newport Music Festival commissioned me for a piano trio in honor of their 2021 season, I looked for a topic that would celebrate an aspect of the Newport community. While researching the area, I was struck by the nine lighthouses situated around the island. The dual nature of lighthouses was particularly appealing to me: not only do they serve a vital role in the navigation of ships around rocks and land, but they are also a beautiful sight, particularly at night when their blinking beacons are clearly visible to the eye. It occurred to me that lighthouses link the past with the present, and will endure long into the future, with their beacons serving the same purpose for every generation.I became fascinated with the lighthouse on the property of Castle Hill Inn, located at the opening of the East Passage of the Narragansett Bay. This squat thirty-four foot granite structure was erected in 1890 on a very picturesque spot, right at the water’s edge. Its “characteristic,†the nautical term for each lighthouse’s unique light sequence that allows ships to identify the lighthouse, is to alternate on for three seconds, then off for three seconds. The lighthouse has also served as the starting and finish line for numerous high profile yacht races, as well as survived a massive hurricane in 1938, though the lighthouse keeper’s nearby residence wasn’t so lucky. American novelist Thornton Wilder wrote much of his 1973 novel Theophilus North while staying at the Castle Hill Inn; a passage from the book perfectly captures the dual nature of lighthouses:“At a later visit I was able to engage the pentagonal room in a turret above the house; from that magical room I could see at night the beacons of six lighthouses and hear the booming and chiming of as many sea buoys.â€In Beacon of the Bay, we first hear the lighthouse’s characteristic as its ruby light blinks on and off. This is followed by a simple theme that represents the lighthouse performing its solitary duty. As the piece progresses, we hear waves playfully lapping around its base, then yachts gracefully floating by; this is followed by a violent storm that churns the waves with so much force that they crash against the lighthouse’s granite body. But the steadfast lighthouse holds firm to the rocks, grandly blinking its ruby light. The music quiets back down to its simple theme, with yachts sailing by once more as the piece concludes.
