RÉVISION ET PARTIE DE CELLO II, XAVIER GAGNEPAIN. Par POPPER DAVID. Les 40 études opus 73 de Popper constituent un précieux élément du patrimoine éducatif du violoncelliste. ?Hohe Schule des Violoncellspiels?, le titre du recueil laisse entrevoir la hauteur des sommets vers lesquels l?auteur prétend conduire les instrumentistes qui s?y confrontent. Cette nouvelle édition a pour ambition de restituer fidèlement le texte original et de respecter intégralement les choix instrumentaux de l?auteur (articulations, doigtés et indications techniques). En s?y conformant avec rigueur, le violoncelliste s?approchera au plus près de la palette expressive et technique de l?un des plus grands maîtres de l?histoire du violoncelle. L?apport de Popper à la musique ne s?est pas limité à son grand niveau instrumental. Sa proximité avec Brahms, Liszt, Hans van Bülow, Bartok ou Hubai en a fait un acteur important de la vie artistique de son époque. Tour à tour soliste ou chambriste, violoncelle solo d?orchestre ou professeur, il était aussi excellent pianiste. Et, en tant que compositeur - outre ses séries d?études - il nous a légué de véritable bijoux qui ont grandement élargi le répertoire de son instrument. Sa finesse et son savoir-faire de compositeur se retrouvent dans la qualité musicale des 40 études op.73. Elles suivent toutes une trame harmonique latente d?une grande richesse, dissimulée derrière une présentation généralement monodique. La réalisation d?un accompagnement pour second violoncelle a pour objectif d?aider l?interprète a en découvrir la beauté cachée. Ce support peut aussi le guider dans son travail d?intonation et d?organisation rythmique. Il permet enfin de présenter ces études au public sous un jour moins aride. Xavier Gagnepain/ Etude / 1-2 Violoncelles

Par HERBERT CHANG. Designed to help people master all 24 major and minor scales. In this book, first, all the violin scales are re-organized to be more simple, practical, and easy to learn. Then all the fingerings of the single-stop scales are classified into only a few basic patterns. When practicing, violinists can study these fingering patterns first and then use them to play all 24 scales easily. Finally, all the fingerings of the double-stop scales are also re-edited to make them as simple as possible. With this approach, the process of learning violin scales is much easier than before. / Niveau : Intermédiaire / All Styles - Technic / Recueil / Violon

Par HUREL PHILIPPE. Ayant joué du violon dans mon enfance, j'ai toujours repoussé le moment d'écrire pour les cordes seules, comme si la peur d'aborder mon instrument reprenait corps lors du passage à l'écriture. Mais l'amitié fait des miracles et Alexis Descharmes n'a eu aucun mal à me convaincre d'écrire pour le violoncelle. Il faut dire que notre collaboration au sein de Court-circuit n'a fait qu'aiguiser mon envie de me confronter à son instrument. Après une série de Loops, pièces solistes pour flûte(s) et percussion organisées autour de l'idée de bouclage, de morphing et de labyrinthe formel, cette nouvelle pièce pour instrument seul emprunte des voies totalement différentes, voire volontairement contradictoires. En effet, ici pas de processus linéaires de transformation, pas de répétition littérale ni de bouclage, pas de brouillage des pistes, pas de refus des modes de jeux ni des gestes instrumentaux. Au contraire, la pièce est construite à partir de quelques éléments 'énergétiques' particulièrement violoncellistiques et liés au caractère impétueux de son dédicataire qui s'enchaînent, se catapultent et se transforment de façon non prévisible. Par ailleurs, comme son titre le laisse supposer, D'un trait a été composé dans un laps de temps restreint et concentré et il y a une sorte 'd'animalité' qui s'en dégage, une forme d'urgence et de tension que l'on retrouve dans les autres pièces que j'ai écrites dernièrement, malgré l'intervention de l'ordinateur dans le calcul de bon nombre de paramètres. Pour paraphraser Gérard Grisey, 'la musique se situe entre le nombre et le drame, entre le délire et la structure'. Philippe Hurel La dernière partie de D'un Trait, intitulée Trentemps peut-être jouée séparément. / contemporain / Répertoire / Violoncelle

Par DUNCAN CRAIG. Cette collection comprend douze pièces spécialement organisés pour violoncelle de oeuvres accessoires de Beethoven. Les pièces sont jouables en première position, sauf pour un e occasionnel au-dessus de middle c. Le livre commence avec les arrangements et les progresse dans le niveau de difficulté facile. La plupart des pièces piano double la mélodie pour aider à la performance. / Niveau : Débutant à Intermédiaire / Classic - Solos / Recueil / Violoncelle
