Arrangeur: Martin Tourish. Martin Tourish is an accordionist, composer and musicologist from Co. Donegal, now based in Dublin. Celtic music is in his blood, for his ancestors were noted collectors of dance music manuscripts dating back to the 19th century. With many recordings to his credit, he now offers his expertise to performers wishing to explore the rich culture of Irish and other Celtic music on a variety of instruments. 'World Music - Celtic? presents material from the Irish, Scottish, Welsh, Cornish and Breton traditions. It makes no great technical demands on the players, but Tourish points out that notation of this music is often 'skeletal?, hence it is important to gain a knowledge of the individual traditions in question and, naturally, he offers plenty of information on performance practice. The collection spans three centuries, from the blind bardic harpists of the 18th century to the international performers of the present day. Tourish accepts that this volume can only scratch the surface of a multi-faceted genre but hopes you will see it as a stepping stone to delve deeper into recordings, festivals and the very communities whence this music comes. 'World Music - Celtic? is available in six formats, each with complete recordings and backing tracks on CD: as solo versions for violin, violoncello, flute, clarinet or saxophone (with piano) and in an ensemble version for two melodic instruments (C, Bb or Eb), piano, guitar, bass and bodhrán./ Recueil / Violoncelle et Piano

Franz Schubert wrote his Arpeggione Sonata for piano and arpeggione, a hybrid instrument that was part guitar, part violoncello and fashionable at that time. Today, the piece has become a standard work for violoncello and piano, an instrumentation chosen for the present edition as well. For the few players of an arpeggione, a solo part is available at www.wiener-urtext.com [1]. The edition follows, for the most part, the text of Schubert's extant autograph. / Violoncelle Et Piano

Par VAZART CLAIRE. Commandée en 2003, Facettes est l'exemple même de la collaboration entre Claire VAZART et le quintette Hora Cero. La pièce conserve le caractère nostalgique, mélodique et rythmique propre au tango, répertoire privilégié de l'ensemble. Cependant, elle y développe aussi des jeux de timbres, de grains, de matière sonore résolument contemporains. L'oeuvre construite en arche autour d'un solo de guitare présente, tel un miroitement, les multiples facettes d'un même thème. Se crée ainsi tout un univers sonore à la fois raffiné,personnel et original. / Niveau : Moyen à Avancé / Moderne / Répertoire / Alto, Bandonéon, Guitare, Piano et Contrebasse
