The Carl Martin Rock Bug is an Amp/Speaker Simulator and Headphone rehearsal unit that operates on a single 9v battery. Although this type of accessory is not new, we believe there is nothing on the market that feels as real or sounds as realistic as the Rock Bug! You simply get the feeling that you are playing through a good tube amp. Just plug your guitar (with or without pedals) into the unbalanced 1/4″ input, plug your favourite headphones into the unbalanced 1/4″ output and off you go! Adjust your instruments' volume with the Guitar knob, select an open cabinet or closed cabinet simulation with the mini-toggle switch, and wail away through the privacy of your headphones. If you like, use the AUX stereo inputs and add an MP3, CD or DAT player to the mix; adjust the Master volume for your music, blend in your guitar sounds with the Guitar volume, and either play along with your favourite cd's or add a personal touch to your pre-recorded backing tracks. Utilizing the balanced XLR output, you can connect your Rock Bug to a mixing console for recording, solo gigs accompanying the pre-recorded music with your live guitar, or as a DI for live performance when you are packing light, or your amp goes down. You might not think an Amp-Speaker Simulator is new, but with all these features, the Rock Bug is the little Danish-Swiss Army Knife that belongs in the pocket of every guitar-players gig-bag.

Concert Band/Harmonie - Grade 4

Composed by Philip Sparke. Anglo Music Midway Series. Set (Score & Parts). Composed 2014. Anglo Music Press #AMP 392-010. Published by Anglo Music Press (BT.AMP-392-010).

English-German-French- Dutch.

The work opens with a stern fanfare in bare fifths, which leads to a cantabile theme introduced by alto saxophone. This builds to a climax and reintroduces the fanfare, which slowly evolves into the subsequent vivo. A perky tune emerges on flute, saxophone and trumpet, which, after a short bridge passage, leads to a contrasting melody on low clarinets and saxophones. After some development a true ‘second subject’ appears for the whole band. A recapitulation leads briefly back to the opening fanfare before the vivo returns to close the work in celebratory mood.

Het werk begint met een sobere fanfare in open kwinten, gevolgd door een zangerig thema dat wordt ge ntroduceerd door de altsaxofoon. Dit thema groeit uit tot een climax en leidt opnieuw de fanfare in, die zich langzaam ontwikkelt tot het daaropvolgende vivo. Er verschijnt een opgewekte melodie in de fluit, saxofoon en trompet, die na een korte overgangspassage uitmondt in een contrasterende melodie in de lage klarinetten en saxofoons. Na een verdere uitwerking openbaart zich een tweede thema voor het complete orkest. Een herneming voert ons even weer mee naar de openingsfanfare, voordat het vivo terugkeert en het werk in feestelijke stemming afsluit.

Nach einer ernsten Fanfare in bloßen Quinten, die zu einem Thema in cantabile im Altsaxophon führt, taucht eine kecke Melodie in Flöte, Saxophon und Trompete auf, die nach einer kurzen Überleitung zu einer kontrastierenden Melodie in den tiefen Klarinetten und Saxophonen wird. Ein zweites Thema“ spielt das gesamte Blasorchester. Bevor ein Vivo aus dem Anfangsteil Southend Celebration beendet, werden längst alle Musiker und Zuhörer von der festlichen Stimmung, die es verbreitet, infiziert sein!

L’� ��uvre s’ouvre avec une fanfare de nature sérieuse en quintes qui mène un thème cantabile introduit par les saxophones alto. La musique s’amplifie pour atteindre un certain climax et réintroduire la fanfare, qui évolue progressivement vers un vivo. Fl tes, saxophones et trompettes introduisent un air guilleret qui, après un court passage de transition, aboutit une mélodie contrastée dans le registre grave des clarinettes et saxophones. Après un développement, un véritable second sujet apparaît pour l’orchestre entier. Une récapitulation mène une brève réapparition de la fanfare d’ouverture avant le retour du vivo, qui achève la pièce dans une ambiance de fête.

Il lavoro si apre con un’austera fanfara con quinte vuote, che porta a un tema cantabile introdotto da un saxofono contralto. Si arriva a un culmine e si introduce nuovamente la fanfara, che lentamente evolve nel ‘vivo’ successivo. Un tema vivace emerge dal flauto, dal sassofono e dalla tromba, e dopo un breve passaggio di transizione, porta a una melodia contrastante, dei clarinetti bassi e dei sassofoni. Dopo qualche sviluppo un vero ‘secondo soggetto’ sorge dall’intera banda. Una ripresa porta brevemente indietro alla fanfara, prima che il ‘vivo’ ritorni per chiudere il lavoro in modo celebrativo.

Chamber Music Trombone, Piano

SKU: PR.144407320

Composed by Lauren Bernofsky. Set of Score and Parts. 16+8 pages. Duration 10 minutes. Merion Music #144-40732. Published by Merion Music (PR.144407320).

ISBN 9781491135006. UPC: 680160685998.

From the pen of Lauren Bernofsky comes a truly unique contribution to the trombone repertoire – music expressing the joys and challenges of parenthood, through a mother’s eyes. FROM A MOTHER’S JOURNAL is a suite of five movements, Love Letter, A World of Worry, Bedtime Battle, Contentment, and Little Imp, which bubble with warmth, irony, frustration, tenderness, humor … as complex a cocktail of emotions as parenthood itself. The music explores a broad range of trombone techniques, making the 10-minute suite an exciting tour de force for any recital.
The idea for FROM A MOTHER’S JOURNAL originated during car ride from an IWBC conference back to New York City – Nikki Abissi and I were sharing our experiences of the challenges and joys of motherhood, and she said, “Wouldn’t it be cool to have a trombone piece written about all the emotions of motherhood?” There certainly wasn’t one that I knew about! Not long after, she contacted me about writing her exactly that piece.I thought that this was definitely a concept for a piece whose time had come, and I was immediately on board with the project. She sent me some short descriptions of some of her experiences, from the frustration of getting a rambunctious baby to go to sleep at bedtime to the boundless love she felt for not just her baby but her husband, as a father, as well. I wrote each anecdote into a short movement, and the result was a collection of musical vignettes covering a range of moods and textures as well as trombone techniques. Since I, too, am a mother, I filtered her anecdotes through my own lens, and I consider this piece to be not just a biography of Nikki but also my own autobiography.

A composer has decided he wants to do an opera. Now he has been through all the genres, and to crown his life's work with something big, he wants to do an opera. He goes to a Danish, acclaimed poet and orders a libretto. After some time, he / she gets the text back and begins his composition work. One day he / she is done, and so what? It is common for composers to know very little about dramaturgy, and therefore not really competent to take on the responsibility. Therefore, the composer must learn dramaturgy. Of course, on the other hand, no good opera has to come out of an excellent dramaturgical text. In other words, if it is possible to analyze that something is a good dramaturgy craft, then it is worth the try.Bent Lorentzen shows with this book what good music dramaturgy is. All opera enthusiasts can gain greater insight into the opera's instruments - such as theater.

An optional clarinet adds a festive flourish to this traditional Hebrew folk song arranged expressly for 3-part mixed singers. This specifically targeted voicing pays close attention to the most appropriate range and tessitura for developing voices, especially the guys. Four short lines comprise an entirely Hebrew text that celebrates the miracle of Hanukkah and the spinning dreidel (a pronunciation guide is included). S'vivon sov, sov, sov means Dreidel turn, turn, turn. Excitement abounds throughout, especially when a surprise slower section accelerates back to the first lively tempo, and then even faster for the final phrase.
