Vol. 1: Lyric. OperAria is the ideal 'vocal coach' for all voice types. Edited by Peter Anton Ling, the books address all singers and are conceived above all for training and auditions. In addition, through their careful selection, they offer valuable inspiration for opera recitals. OperAria offers in every book - a well-founded repertoire collection of common audition arias and rarities, which also include pieces from the 20th century - reliable aria texts in performable versions with revised or newly elaborated piano-vocal scores - meticulous comments on every aria (with contents and an evaluation from the singer's viewpoint) - a CD as 'Text and Phonetics Assistant' with the aria texts as audio file in their original language as well as the aria texts in German and English translation The three books for baritone '1:lyrical,' '2: lyrical-dramatic' and '3: dramatic' are placed at the beginning of the project. Altogether 16 volumes are planned- the first books for soprano are currently being prepared for 2016. 'It is my aim to give students a modern, systematically structured, well-informed vocal coach that meets the demands of present-day stage practice. And, of course, a cohesive repertoire and logical presentation of audition arias for every vocal genre.' (Peter Anton Ling)/ Recueil / Baryton

The New Essential Companion. Henrik Wiese, the internationally renowned orchestral and solo flautist, has spent four years compiling what promises to be the definitive guide to audition repertoire for students preparing for a seat in a professional orchestra. He has worked with his own students in Salzburg as they engaged in auditions, as well as with other professional players and his teaching colleagues at the conservatorium. He sourced repertoire lists from job advertisements past and present and referred to other audition lists such as those of Baxtresser and Wye. Considerable research has gone into the differences between existing editions of the chosen pieces even, surprisingly, from twentieth century composers such as Prokofiev and Stravinsky. 'The Flute Audition” then looks at practical matters such as page turns and metronome markings. Wiese comments, for example, that Hindemith's own recording takes a passage from 'Symphonic Metamorphoses” markedly slower than in the score. The result of all this painstaking research is the most comprehensive collection of international audition pieces yet published in a single volume. 'This is an excellent collection of orchestral excerpts for the next generation of young musicians. You can use it to prepare for auditions anywhere in the world. Whether it's for an opera house, symphony or chamber orchestra, everything you need is here.'/ Recueil / Flûte Traversière
