Arrangeur: Claude Georgel. Since the success of the first volume in 2015, OpenSax has spoken for instrumentalists across the world who identify with an unbounded literature for saxophone that' s firmly in touch with today' s musical world. Claude Georgel, who directs the Vent de Sax collection at the Editions Leduc, here presents a sequel to this great adventure that widens its scope: while the 1st volume was aimed essentially at beginner saxophonists, the second targets more confirmed players (5 or 6 years of practice). Nine composers of varying backgrounds (Japan, Spain, Italy, Germany and France), several of whom are from the young generation, allow players to explore the saxophone' s wide palette of instrumental colours without forgetting what' s essential: the pure joy of playing. Tom Georgel, Giulia Lorusso, Alexandros Markeas, Clara Olivares, Sirah Mart?nez Alvarez, Pierre Bertrand-Cagnes, Ryo Noda, Luise Volkmann and Fuminori Tanada sign the pieces in this anthology that will delight anyone who has lost their heart to this instrument of freedom./ Recueil / Saxophone

His way of playing and looking at chords inspires me as a drummer and his rhythm section partner to play things that are in turn inspiring to the rest of the band.

Gary Davis favored regular tuning while Josh White was equally at home playing in Open D tuning as well as standard tuning. Lonnie Johnson is unique in his playing techniques as well as use of a D G D G B E tuning. Buddy Moss's recordings influenced generations of Piedmont guitarists, especially Blind Boy Fuller.

Abenteur Im Erweiterten Tonraum. Par STRECKE KERSTIN. Little Tio 'on Tour' means that he wanders across the meadows, whistles a few melodies, runs into grasshoppers, birds, caterpillars, even bears and snakes, and in no time at all he's compiled a collection of 40 new pieces. 'Tio on Tour' also means: the piano has many more keys than the notes within the interval of a fifth. So let's go! We move our hands by following Tio, stretch them and explore the keys little by little. We master them from above and below, use the (right) pedal ... and realize that we can also go 'on tour' for a little recital with Tio and these catchy pieces. Applause, applause!/ Recueil / Piano

Par HIGGINS ANDREW. Tracing the steps taken by the author on his musical journey, So You Want To Learn To Improvise? Offers teachers and students a step-by-step guide to acquiring the skills needed to improvise at the piano. The book is deliberately stylistically non-specific, working from the premise that once the basics are secured, choices about style can be personal issues. The content from So You Want To Learn To Improvise? is drawn from the material assembled over 25 years teaching experience in the classroom and at the piano, and 15 years of workshops, seminars and lectures across the world. The accumulation of teachers requesting that the ideas heard in the workshops be set in a usable step-by-step format with extensive musical examples to practise and teach from, made writing the book almost compulsory. The ideas are clear and specific, but demand a creative approach from the start, inculcating a mind-set that is both inquisitive and musical from the outset. The practise schedule is extensixe and progressive, demanding the student fully understand each process before moving on. The objective is to free the student from the 'tyranny' of notation, setting them free to explore music on their own terms. Most lapsed pianists who return to the piano in later life cite' just playing whatever I feel like' as being the one quality they aspire to - So You Want To Learn To Improvise? offers them that oppourtunity, and more.  / Instrumental Music, Methods
