Dream Engine has all of the compositional thumb prints that have made the music of Larry Clark so popular for string orchestras. It is a concert overture in classic ABA form. The opening section has a tuneful melody over spiccato accompaniments that weaves throughout the ensemble. The middle B section is slow, lyrical, lush, and beautiful as a contrast to the lighter A section. Another piece from Larry Clark to showcase your ensemble at contest/festival.One of the types of pieces I like to write for orchestra are pieces that use a contrast between staccato playing and more marcato melodic material. Dream Engine is the result. The piece is set in a concert overture form with two fast sections based on the same theme and a slow lyrical second section in the middle.The piece begins right off with a short introduction of the spiccato accompaniment figures before it leads to the first statement of the main theme. Quarter notes in the main theme should be played full bow in contrast to the lilting staccato eighth notes. The bass line should be long as well. After a full ensemble statement of the theme, the piece moves to a bridge theme that is sort of an inversion of the main theme and is taken up by the cello; then the viola is added on a harmony part to the melody. Transition material is presented next that is used throughout the piece to connect all of the sections of the piece together. The main theme returns once more before the piece transitions into the slow and lyrical B-section. The B-section should be lush and as legato as possible to be in complete contrast to the A-section. This will be an excellent chance to work on the players’ expressive playing. Make sure to have a lot of rubato and generous rises and falls to the lines to make it as musical aspossible.At the completion of the B-section, the A-material returns with different orchestration for variety. This is followed by the transition material that leads to an aggressive coda that includes a brief quote from the B-section material. If you so chose, a slight increase in the tempo at the coda is acceptable to add to excitement of the ending.It has been my pleasure to have the opportunity to write this piece. I hope you and your students enjoy it and find it useful for your program.—Larry ClarkLakeland, FL 2017.

The pieces, deliberately kept easy and progressively ordered, can be both complementary to Addizio! Brass Instruction in classes, groups, and ensembles (addizio.de) and to other brass class concepts, as well as also used stand alone and in the most varying scorings. All the students' books have an identical layout and are fully compatible with each other. In addition to a clear leading part, the teacher's guide contains introductory and explanatory information on the didactic concept, scoring options, internal differentiation, helpful tips and suggestions, together with an insertion of lead sheets including chord symbols.For many children, Christmas carols are the first serious musical venture in which with great engagement they perform in various contexts. Addizio! - Merry Christmas offers for this an attractive mix of traditional carols, American and Americanized titles in jazz and pop styles right up to the current school repertoire. You can find audiotracks with notes on YouTube; for additional parts, please see addizio.de (only in German).

This book is for more expert level pianists. If you can play the last score of my book Two, I am convinced that you can start here. I needed to study these scores as well and to stay focused when playing them. Can I give you some advice? If you struggle with a hard part, repeat it, over and over again. You can’t expect to improve your piano level by playing only the easy parts of a song. Make sure you study efficiently. The book includes a lot of compositions. We recorded every song in the studio so you can hear me play, the way I like it to be played. However, as a pianist, I believe it is essential to give it your touch, so I am looking forward to hearing your version too. On top of that, there is a tutorial video of every single song, where I talk you through the hardest parts and share some tips and tricks with you.
