'LISTENING EARTH' is a symphonic drama, a one- movement composition in four parts based on the work by two writers, Joseph Addison (1672-1719) and W.H.Auden (1907-1973). Joseph Addison is not particularly well known; he was English, a classical scholar, essayist, poet and politician, but one of his hymns was used by Benjamin Britten. in his setting of a Thomas Tallis canon.
The hymn is singularly beautiful and being a composer always inspired by extramusical stimuli such as poems, nature, paintings, I was immediately convinced when I carne across the Addison hymn, that here was exactly what I wanted to use as my major source of inspiration for this piece, commissioned by and written for The Berlin Philharmonic.
I don't refer to the hymn in its entirety, but have chosen the following 3 excerpts, all acting as mottos for the first three sections of the piece, thus turning the piece into a straightforward tonepoem in the classical.

Band Bass Clarinet, Bass Drum, Bassoon, Bells, Clarinet 1, Clarinet 2, Crash Cymbals, Euphonium, Euphonium T.C., Flute, Horn, Mallet Percussion, Oboe, Percussion 1, Percussion 2, Percussion 3, Sleigh Bells, Snare Drum, Suspended Cymbal, Timpani and more. - Grade 1.5

PROGRAM NOTES Santa's Majesty is inspired by the promise and grandeur presented by Santa Claus. Many of us place our faith in legendary figures hoping for good to be shared with those around us in our lives. The intention of this work is to capture the majesty surrounding our beloved Saint Nicholas. NOTES TO CONDUCTOR The duration of the composition is two minutes at the marked tempo. Careful attention should be given to articulations, dynamic changes and phrasing throughout the work. The entire work should be felt in two even though it is marked in common time. Be sure not to breathe after any crescendo throughout the work. Measure 73 through measure 75 should give focus to the tenor voices. The last three quarter notes of the piece should be emphasized a little heavier with some space.

Locke's Theatre, an orchestral work in three short movements, takes as its departure point incidental music written for Shakespeare's The Tempest by the seventeenth-century English composer Matthew Locke. Aspects of Locke's idiosyncratic and daringly advanced harmonic and rhythmic language were to be adopted (some might say perfected) by his younger friend and protege Henry Purcell. But it is the very rawness and directness of Locke's theatre music that I wished to acknowledge and emulate. In each of my work's three movements - entitled respectively 'The First Music', 'Rustic Music', and 'Curtain Music (with Storm)' - the baroque originals, though very often submerged, remain a constant, shadowy presence. Locke's Theatre was commissioned by the Aldeburgh Festival to mark the centenary of Benjamin Britten's birth. -Ryan Wigglesworth.

Die 50 Spitzen-Gitarren-Soli, die Ihnen dieses Lehrbuch bietet, beruhen auf Musikstücken, die der Feder der bedeutendsten Gitarrenspieler aller Zeiten entstammen. Was das Besondere an diesen ‚einfachen‘ Soli ist? Es ist dieTatsache, dass sie für jeden zugänglich sind, dass sich damit auch der absolute Gitarrenanfänger den Spaß gönnen kann, den Lead-Gitarrenpart zu übernehmen. ‚Einfach‘ heißt aber nicht automatisch ‚eintönig‘. Um diese Führung durchdie Welt des Gitarren-Solospiels nicht nur lehrreich, sondern auch ansprechend und unterhaltsam zu gestalten, wurden die in diesem Lehrbuch enthaltenen Soli in unterschiedlichen Tonarten, Tongeschlechtern (Dur oder Moll),undSpielweisen (binär oder ternär) gewählt; auch sind sie unterschiedlich voll bepackt und unterschiedlich reich phrasiert. Damit Sie die hier dargebotenen 50 Soli wirklich durchschauen und sich anschließend trauen, diese zuerweitern oder sogar selbst welche zu erfinden, ist der Soli-Sammlung ein einleitendes Kapitel vorgeschoben, in dem Sie die dafür erforderlichen Grundkenntnisse (Tonleitern und Legato-Spieltechniken) erwerben. Die Video-DVDermöglicht Ihnen, sich alle 50 Soli genau anzusehen und anzuhören bei eigentlicher und bei verlangsamter Spielgeschwindigkeit. Das heißt dass Sie alle Zeit der Welt haben, um sich die Bewegungsabläufe richtig einzuprägen, dierichtigen Fingersätze zu wählen und richtig im Takt spielen zu lernen. Die MP3-CD beinhaltet 50 Playalongs. Sie haben also für jedes Solo ein Playalong, das in zwei unterschiedlichen Tempi abgespielt wird einmal in dereigentlichen Spielgeschwindigkeit und, zu Übungszwecken, in einer verlangsamten Spielgeschwindigkeit. Die Playalongs sind absichtlich lang gehalten; jedes davon dauert 4-5 Minuten, was insgesamt mehr als 7 h Musikunterrichtergibt(!) Damit sind für das Einüben der hier dargebotenen Soli bestmögliche Rahmenbedingungen geschaffen worden.
