Essential Elements Piano Theory is a comprehensive course designed to help students master theory concepts. New concepts are gradually introduced in a clearly presented format, followed by sufficient and effective reinforcement. Each book features three sections of Musical Mastery which include ear training, mastery in rhythm, symbols, reading, and analysis. Students learn to apply their theoretical knowledge in a musical context through such elements as improvisation, transposition, reading lead lines and standard chord progressions. Each book concludes with a section of Theory Mastery which includes a review test and ear training. The creative and fun approach of this series applies the student's understanding of theory to real musical examples, and will enhance and supplement any method book. / Piano

Cds 2, 3 And 4. Ein Instrument im Klassenverband zu lernen ist in den USA seit Jahren eine bewährte Methode und findet auch in Deutschland mehr und mehr Zuspruch. Essential Elements bietet nicht nur eine grundlegende, umfassende Ausbildung für alle Blas- und Schlaginstrumente des Blasorchesters und deren Zusammenspiel, sondern verspricht auch jede Menge Spaß am gemeinsamen Lernen und Musizieren. Neben der Musiklehre, welche sinnvoll und in kleinen Schritten vermittelt wird, finden sich auch interessante Ausflüge in die Musiktheorie, -geschichte und Kultur. Jedem Schülerheft liegt eine Vor- und Mitspiel-CD bei, die von professionellen Musikern eingespielt wurde. Zusätzlich gibt es einMitspiel-CD-Set, das ab etwa der Mitte des jeweiligen Schülerhefts zum Üben zu Hause verwendet werden kann. Ideal ist dieses Werk nicht nur für das Lernen eines Instruments im Klassenverband. Es kann hervorragend in den Vor- und Anfängerorchestern der Blasorchester verwendet werden. Das im Einzel- oder Gruppenunterricht Gelernte wird mit Essential Elements wiederholt und gleichzeitig stehen jede Menge Orchesterarrangements zur Verfügung, so dass das Zusammenspiel frühzeitig geübt werden kann./ Accessoire / Educatif

The Melakarta System. Par IYER RADHIKA. Elements of Indian Music introduces the Indian melodic system in an accessible manner within the realm of Western music theory. It demonstrates a new archetype in music composition for composers of any genre, as well as composition teachers and anyone interested in ethnomusicology.This book contains a set of 12 etudes for piano and transcriptions for classical guitar. Each etude is about one minute in length and utilizes notes from a particular Indian scale. An intermediate to advanced skill level is required to perform each etude. Practicing and performing these studies is an excellent way to expand one's musical perspective beyond traditional diatonic scales.Indianmusic has intrigued the West for a long time, but hasn't always been accessible because of the absence of a systematic approach to theory and repertoire. Just as the Western harmonic system is well developed, the Indian melodic system is very advanced and equally established. The intermingling of these two worlds can inspire new, exceptional sonic landscapes.Useful literature on the evolution of the Indian melodic system is also included, with notes on how it can be used as a modus operandi by Western musicians who wish to apply Indian scales in Western compositions and improvisations.Includes access to online audio Elements of Indian Music introduces the Indian melodic system in an accessible manner within the realm of Western music theory.
