Par SCOTT ANDY. Saxon Place is an opportunity to explore and improvise with colour and inflection, within a fully notated work. When I was writing Saxon Place I was hearing some of the saxophonists that I admire from the contemporary classical, jazz and funk worlds. Divided into three main sections that run continuously, part one is dynamic and articulate, part two has a free time introduction before settling into a slower groove, whilst part three is about energy and drive and musical conversation. The alternative fingerings that feature in part three do not need to have exact intonation, in fact the effect is better if they aren’t exactly in tune with the notated pitch! You may need to experiment with which palm keys that you use depending on saxophone of choice. Andy Scott / Date parution : 2021-12-09/ Répertoire / Saxophone

Par JOHNSON TIMOTHY. Composer Timothy Johnson spent many years as a school band director. His teaching experience qualifies him to approach the development of this new entry into the CMP Essentials of Musicianship Series with reality-based confidence. Ever so gradually this product takes the band from the simplest forms of syncopation to more and more complex notation. Your students can build their reading skills at a pace they can handle. The astute teacher will also notice that there is plenty of concept reinforcement as the group steps from easy to more challenging rhythms. A great teaching tool! / Niveau : 1-2 / Répertoire / Educatif

Par BREWER HERBERT A.. Organist of Gloucester Cathedral from 1896 till his death in 1928, as well as composer, choir-trainer, adjudicator and teacher, Sir Herbert Brewer was involved for over three decades with the Three Choirs Festival, and his Memories of Choirs and Cloisters offers a vivid account of the planning and execution of the festivals in that time, those at Gloucester in particular. Though his professional life was spent exclusively in the provinces, his championing of contemporary music brought him into wide contact with composers and other artistic figures both from Britain and the continent, including Robert Bridges, Elgar, Glazunov, Rider Haggard, Parry, Quiller-Couch, Ravel, Saint-Saëns and Sibelius (whose Luonnotar he premiered). John Morehen's fine new edition places Brewer's lively and insightful recollections of these and other encounters and connections in context for the modern reader, making the book an important addition to our fuller understanding of a remarkable period in British music. Neither a conventional autobiography nor a diary, but a collection of reminiscences compiled towards the end of his life, Brewer's Memories reveals a scrupulous and astute musician of great integrity, warm-hearted with a devotion to social justice and civic duty, and with a mischievous sense of humour./ Recueil / Choeur

Par SCOTT ANDY. A major new work for solo harp in six movements by Andy Scott. Commissioned by and composed for Sioned Williams. The world premiere of Jukebox was given by Sioned Williams at the Purcell Room, Southbank Centre, London in October 2014. The 1950’s were the heyday of the vinyl record jukebox, and this 14-minute work for solo harp mirrors the concept of a jukebox playing short ‘singles’ that differ in style and feel. Watch and listen to six harpists (Sioned Williams, Keziah Thomas, Lauren Scott, Alex Rider, Elizabeth Bass & Eleanor Turner) perform Jukebox at www.bit.ly/jukeboxharp/ Répertoire / Harpe
