Par COHEN MARY. Favourite carols and festive tunes have here been creatively arranged for the beginner quartet (Grade 1?2 ) by the ever-resourceful Mary Cohen. From the more solemn to the extremely boisterous, these arrangements explore a wide range of musical styles as well as many interesting string effects (including simple harmonics, col legno, pizzicato and tremolo). Conscious of the limited rehearsal time available in the mad rush up to the annual carol service or Christmas concert, Mary has also provided invaluable technique tips to help deal with problems which might otherwise disrupt the musical flow. There are plenty of opportunities for audience participation too for the more adventurous! / Ensemble Music, Methods and Tutors / Répertoire / Violon, Violoncelle et Alto

Groupe Ii. Par FOLGNAND GUNTER. Dans sa préface, le compositeur écrit: 'L'idée originale de la composition a été de: 7 tons entiers, 7 battements (premier mouvement), 7 joueurs Il en est résulté une oeuvre pour trois groupes de chaînes de caractères suivantes tons entiers sur C et F: Etapes ! '. Ce travail est impressionnante structuré avec son bruit de chaîne sonore, à certains moments, la musique est tout à fait spectaculaire, il montre les aspects de la période romantique tardive, tout en étant modérément moderne.

Par JOLIVET ANDRE. Pastoreles De Noë l by Andre Jolivet is a piece for Flute, Bassoon and the Harp lasting nearly 13 minutes. This piece is really gentle and restrained which demonstrates the quality of Jolivet 's work but also reflects that period of WWII when France was under occupation. These scores are of medium level of ability. Pastoreles De Noë l features four sections: L'etoile (the Star), Les Mages (the Wisemen), La Vierge et l'Enfant (the Virgin and the Child) and Entree et Danse des Bergers (the Shepherds' dance). Each of these parts describes a part of theChristmas story, starting with the Flute and the Bassoon in a duet, followed by the entrance of the Harp to settle the first part. The second section is quieter, expressing the walk in the desert. The Virgin and the Child is like a lullaby and the piece finishes on a joyful dance to express happiness and devotion. Andre Jolivet is a French composer who was really inspired by the Antiquity, and had a strong interest for atonality. He also wrote many chamber music pieces, eleven concertos, some orchestral and some vocal music./ Répertoire / Flûte Traversière Basson et Harpe

Per Violino, Violoncello E Pianoforte. Par CALLIGARIS SERGIO. Sergio Calligaris was born in Rosario (1941), Argentina. He is one of the last musicians to incarnate the traditional 19th century figure of pianist, teacher and composer, inaugurated at the beginning of the 19th century by Muzio Clementi and carriedon after that by a sequence of famous names that the history of music has handed down to us. As a pianist, he began to give public performances at the age of 13, making his debut in his home town Rosario. Following this success, he embarked upon an extremely busy career as a soloist, giving numerous recitals in Buenos Aires and other citiesin Argentina. He continued to take advanced lessons with eminent exponents of the most prestigious international piano schools. In 1974 he became an Italian citizen and settled in Rome, teaching piano as principal instrument at the S. Pietro a Majella StateConservatory in Naples, the Luisa DAnnunzio Conservatory in Pescara and the Alfredo Casella Conservatory in Aquila. As a composer, he began - at just 9 years of age - to study in the rigorous school of Paul Hindemith, under the guidance of Father Luis Machado, from whom he inherited a love of counterpoint and a strong taste for harmony. He took a diploma incomposition, counterpoint and fugue at the age of 16 at the Amigos del Arte Society in Rosario, going on in 1964 to do an advanced course in 12-tone counterpoint at the Cleveland Institute of Music. The catalogue of his compositions, which has nowreached Op. 55, encompasses a huge range of instrumental/vocal chamber music and symphonic works: a vast and articulated catalogue, in which Sergio Calligaris’s composition expresses its inspiration through the dramatic development of a dialecticalcontrast between the two natures of the composer’s personality - the elegiac and the dithyrambic - which confront and interact with each other giving rise to artistic outcomes of a deeply moving nature. / Niveau : Intermédiaire / Répertoire / Violon, Violoncelle et Piano
