This warm Hanukkah original counts the menorah candles one by one to commemorate each night of the meaningful holiday. Conservative ranges, manageable phrase lengths, and beginning part singing techniques are designed for quick learning. As a special touch, interludes and counterlines reference the traditional Hebrew song Oy, Khanike, and Shalom Chaverim is sung in a round just before the hushed ending.

The Belgian composer Nicholas Lens presents extremely varied etudes, exercises and simple phrases with wonderfully telling titles from poetry and everyday world for children and adults. For the most part the studies are tonal and simple and have no constructed line. They are not based on any educational concept but leave the musical dramatization to the pupils and teachers: 'Notes and rhythms are just notes and rhythms, they do not have that many rules, they do not have any pretension, they are just tools for you to use to express what you want to share'.

The traditional Ubi Caritas text is uniquely set as an uptempo jazz waltz. Just one sentence in Latin plus a few English lyrics make it clear that this song is all about charity and love. As you've come to expect from this composer, the canon is a true skill-builder---with a modal melody that moves from unison to two and eventually three independent layers (using descant singers for 2-part choirs). Don't miss the jazzy flute obbligato available free online.

The latest publication by the well-known teacher of wind instruments, Péter Perényi, includes pieces that even absolute beginners on the trumpet can play: the pieces in the first chapter, entitled 'Introduction to chamber music', enable even young trumpeters who can play just one noteon the instrument to discover the pleasure of shared music-making. Rhythm games, European folk tunes, then a wealth of easy performance pieces (from the medieval period, through Beethoven's Ode to Joy right up to the present day) make up the valuable content of this volume.

Die neueste Ausgabe des bekannten Blasinstrumentenlehrers Péter Perényi beinhaltet auch Stücke für ganz kleine Trompetenspieler: In den Stücken des Kapitels ‚Einführung in die Kammermusik' können auch schon die Anfänger die Freuden des gemeinsamen Musizierens kennenlernen, die erst einen Ton spielen können. Rhythmik- Spiele, europäische Volkslieder und dann die vielen leichten Vortragsstücke mit Klavierbegleitung (vom Mittelalter über die Ode an die Freude von Beethoven bis zur Gegenwart) machen den reichen Stoff des Bandes aus.
