Par RAE JAMES. James Rae's eminently successful tutor Introducing the Clarinet was the first of its kind providing the complete beginner with material in popular styles yet allowing for a sound musical development along traditional lines. Now, complementing the tutor, James Rae has produced these three volumes to introduce the beginner clarinettist to ensemble playing. The parts are of the same technical level and are written, with hints and tips along the way, to familiarize the beginner with a new set of considerations and become a good team player. Each of the volumes contains: • easy pieces introducing the various aspects of music making with others • all parts are in the low register • especially suited to group teaching • ideal material for concerts and examinations/ Recueil / 3 Clarinettes

The French titles and tempo markings in this four-movement, twenty-minute-long trio point to the composer's particular affinity to French culture. The 'Prélude? is followed by an impressive 'Invocation?, an homage to Schlee's highly regarded former teacher Olivier Messiaen in commemoration of the 100th anniversary of his birth. This movement, composed somewhat earlier than the others, was the departing point for the work. Amongst contemporary music one is not likely to find titles like those that were chosen for the final two movements: 'Allégresse? (exultation, joy) and 'Eglogue? (eclogue - a short pastoral poem). The titles give the music a lasting dramaturgical quality. They reflect the lyrical, serene atmosphere of this extraordinary masterpiece. / Violon, Violoncelle Et Alto
