An original and exciting collection of anthems and other choral pieces written for the Orthodox Church and inspired by the Church in Russia, selected by Ralph Allwood. Partly because of the re-emergence of the Church in the former Soviet Union, interest in Christian musical sources alternative to the great body of the Anglican and other Western Christian traditions has grown sharply in recent years. Though the works presented here may be unfamiliar, they are all masterly. Designed to appeal to choirs of various levels, the collection includes a Kontakion and Ikos for the funeral service, anthems by Great Russian Romantics: Tchaikovsky, Rachmaninov, Grechaninov - and composers from our age: Stravinsky, Schnittke, or Arvo Part speaking for a tradition outside the Orthodox Church, as well as settings of the Lord's Prayer in both Russian and English by John Tavener. / Chant Et Piano

Par MITCHELL HAROLD. Mitchell on Trumpet is revered by educators around the globe and stands unequalled by any other published approach for trumpet. This proven curriculum will guide any ambitious student on a path towards performance excellence. It takes you from the beginning to the extreme limits of the horn through a gradual progression of 82 balanced lessons developing your range from low F-sharp to G above high C. Mitchell on Trumpet - Book 2 continues this exciting journey with Lesson 27 and introduces many advanced concepts while extending the student's range to High C. The exercises and studies cover all phases of playing with the ultimate goal of acquiring and maintaining a strong flexible embouchure. Los Angeles studio pro, Chris Tedesco, will guide you through selected excerpts from all 19 lessons (#27 through #45) by playing, demonstrating, and encouraging the student from start to finish on the included audio CD. Pappy often said, 'Perfect practice makes perfect, careless practice makes mediocrity, and no practice makes nothing.' Since every individual has their own unique set of strengths and challenges, the time necessary to devote to studying this method will vary from student to student. The important thing is to establish a structured schedule that is appropriate for you. There are countless professionals, educators, and performers who claim that Mitchell on Trumpet is the most complete trumpet method ever written. The student who completes Mitchell's Method will be among a select few who possess the endurance, technique, and flexibility needed to conquer any obstacle that they may encounter in any musical passage ever written for trumpet. This Book 2 and all that follow are dedicated to Harold's son, Ollie Mitchell for his tireless pursuit to see his Pappy's work available for many future generations of aspiring trumpet players. Ollie touched so many lives, but sadly, was peacefully reunited with his Pappy when he passed away at home surrounded by family and friends on May 11, 2013. Harold Mitchell lived during a time when musicians played a vital role in popular entertainment. It was a nostalgic era of live performances in music & theater. Mitchell on Trumpet is the culmination of Pappy's life's work and still remains today as the only complete course ever written for learning to play the trumpet./ Méthode / Trompette

Utilisé comme un lieu de culte depuis des siècles, d'abord par les chrétiens et par les musulmans puis (à partir de 1453), la basilique Sainte-Sophie (Istanbul) étonne encore des gens de partout dans le monde. Depuis 1934, il est un musée - mais plus que cela, l'Hagia Sophia, une oeuvre architecturale unique de proportions monumentales dans l'Antiquité chrétienne et du Moyen Age, est décrit comme un lieu mystique. Monumental, encore mystérieuse, un 'miracle de l'espace', un symbole, un signe. 'Sophia', la sainte sagesse, nous accompagne à travers toute l'histoire de la Bible.La musique actuelle doit être considérée dans ce contexte: A la réflexion, la contemplation de la musique et de la poésie. La création est puissante, mais la vérité à ce sujet est puissant aussi. Et la prise de conscience que le chemin de la vérité est atteint par la sagesse. En conséquence, cette pièce doit traverser le puissant pour la moitié de sa durée, monumental. Il s'agit de la coupole au-dessus toutes les suivantes (d'observation) versets (sections). Depuis la barre 371, le chemin ramène à la puissance, à la joie (bar 406). Il ne faut pas oublier de mentionner la suggestion de 'chanter dans une mosquée' (barre de 510) qui est répondu par une simple prière (bar 511). Ce n'est pas sans rappeler la mosaïque dessus de la porte impériale du bâtiment dépeindre Jésus-Christ assis sur un trône orné de bijoux. Il tient un livre ouvert dans lequel on peut lire: 'La paix soit avec vous. Je suis la lumière du monde '.La ligne et le son de Sainte-Sophie sont basées sur un symétrique huit notes rangée (mode B) avec la note B, C sharp, D, E / F, G, A plat (sol dièse), si bémol (A dièse). Bien que les relations majeure-mineure sont retirés, les connexions harmoniques (couleurs) apparaissent néanmoins. / Orgue
