Minor: Bordun. Par ORFF CARL / KEETMAN GUNILD. Carl Orff devoted much of his life to the development of a philosophy of Music for Children, based on his belief that music is the natural outcome of speech, rhythm and movement. His ideas and pioneering work have had a major influence on music and dance education throughout the world and today that work continues under the guidance of leading teachers and educators in many countries. The five basic German volumes of 'Music for Children' by Carl Orff and Gunild Keetman were published between 1950 and 1954. Edition have since been published in Bolivia, Brazil, Canada, Czechoslovakia, Denmark, Estonia, France, Ghana, Great Britain (including a special Welsh edition), Greece, Italy, Japan, Korea, Latin-America, the Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Taiwan and the USA. In 1952 the first edition in translation appeared, an English language adaptation by Doreen Hall and Arnold Walter for their Canadian and American students. A few years later, Margaret Murray independently developed a version (1957-1966), essentially to fulfil the needs of United Kingdom teachers. Inevitably the considerable growth of Orff-Schulwerk in the United States led to the publication of the American Edition (1977) to satisfy the requirements of a different educational system and national heritage. Orff-Schulwerk: Music for Children has proved itself to be a stimulating source of material for music teaching. Carl Orff's fundamental educational ideas have revitalized music education in nursery schools, at all levels of primary and secondary education and in special music schools, based on the concepts that: - music, dance and language are inter-related and animated through rhythm. - when children discover, invent, improvise and compose, their experience of music is intensified. These creative activities are complementary to those of interpreting and listening to music. - all who take part are encouraged to contribute, not only vocally but also instrumentally. - the Orff approach to music education is many sided; it is concerned with practical music-making, it provides fundamental experiences and it lays the foundation for a comprehensive musical training. - movement games and activities for body awareness in space, time and flow, lead to movement improvisation and dance forms. - music and dance have been notated in many different ways in history. Various ways of writing down sounds and music, as well as playing from and interpreting different kinds of sources are being explored. Today, countless teachers and institutions are using these ideas. More and more teachers look for ways of invovling their students in active music making. In particular, they seek to challenge their pupils' creativity by the use of music, dance and speech - as media of human expression - as a foundation of all education. A prerequisite for work in Orff-Schulwerk is the artistic and pedagogical training of teachers. The Orff Institute was founded in 1961 as a Department of the 'Mozarteum', in Salzburg, Austria. Training offered includes a four-year diploma course, a two-year post-graduate course, and a one-year-course in English. At the opening of the Orff Institute in Salzburg in 1963, Carl Orff ended his speech with a quotation from Schiller: 'I have done my part, now do yours.' That challenge has been taken up by teachers worldwide. Hall/Walter Edition Based on Volumes 1, 2 and 4 of the original German Edition 'musik für Kinder', english adaption with additional material by Doreen Hall and Arnold Walter./ Recueil / Voix, Flûte à Bec et Percussion

Par MINDY PAUL / SAMMUT ERIC. Métissages est né d'une rencontre artistique entre Paul Mindy et Eric Sammut. C'est tout naturellement que ces deux musiciens, par ailleurs passionnés de pédagogie, ont voulu créer une passerelle entre les classes de percussions traditionnelles et classiques. Les pièces présentées dans ce recueil sont de styles variés, offrant un large éventail de musiques : classique, traditionnelle, originale. Elles revêtent toutes un indéniable intérêt pédagogique, tant d'un point de vue technique que de l'interprétation et de la connaissance des styles. Percussionniste et chanteur, Paul Mindy, professeur au CNR d'Aubervilliers-la-Courneuve, est spécialiste des musiques du Brésil. Il anime des masterclasses dans le monde entier. Il reçoit le prix Georges Brassens et se produit en tant que chanteur à l'Olympia. Il reçoit également en 2001 le prix de l'Assemblée Nationale et en 2002 le prix de l'Académie Charles Cros. Son talent de percussionniste lui a permis de jouer avec de grands musiciens : Richard Galliano, Roland Dyens, Carlo Rizzo, Franck Tortillier, Dave Samuel, Baden Powell... Il joue aussi avec le groupe 'Quai #5', l'Orchestre pour la paix, Flavio Esposito. Sa discographie comprend des enregistrements en solo (Le monde à l'envers, Mosaïque), en trio avec J.C. Hoarau et A. Vérité (Notre Brésil), et avec la chanteuse Fabienne Magnant (Canto instrumental), un DVD 'méthode pour percussion africaine, brésilienne et cubaine'. Paul Mindy est aussi l'auteur de livres-CD à succès aux éditions Didier Jeunesse : A l'ombre de l'olivier, Comptines du Baobab, Papagaio, Comptines créoles... En 2006, il participe au festival Percpan à Salvador de Bahia. Eric Sammut a débuté ses études musicales par l'apprentissage du piano, puis a suivi la classe de percussion de Michel Ventula au CNR de Toulouse. En 1989, l'année même où il obtient un premier prix à l'unanimité dans la classe de François Dupin et Georges van Gucht au CNSM de Lyon, Eric Sammut entre comme premier percussionniste à l'Orchestre de l'Opéra National de Lyon. Puis en 1995, le premier prix international de marimba de New York lui est décerné - il effectue alors une tournée de récitals et de masterclasses aux Etats-Unis, mais aussi en Europe et au Japon. Il enseigne le marimba au CNR de Toulouse depuis 1997, au CNR de Paris, ainsi qu'à la Royal Academy of London, et il est soliste à l'Orchestre de Paris. Après avoir participé à de nombreux enregistrements discographiques et vidéos avec l'Orchestre du Capitole de Toulouse, l'Orchestre National de Bordeaux-Aquitaine, l'Orchestre National de Lyon, l'Orchestre de l'Opéra National de Lyon, l'Orchestre de Paris, il réalise en 2005 un album de marimba solo, 'Four-Mallet Ballet'. Un enregistrement pour un nouveau CD est prévu en 2006, avec les musiciens Philippe Berrod, Eric Echampard et David Patrois. Sometimes I feel like a Mother Child Percu. classique : le marimba fait ressortir la mélodie dans un débit ternaire - au vibra., les accords doivent être joués d'une manière profonde et colorée - le marimba basse doit être en osmose rythmique avec les percu. traditionnelles. Percu. trad. : travail de coordination sur kenkeni, sangbang et doumdoum - chaque musicien devra travailler chacune des parties séparément. Le travail d'ensemble sur kenkeni, sangbang et doumdoum développe l'écoute polyrythmique. Hymne à la joie Percu. classique : le marimba offre une partie ouverte où l'interprète peut prendre des libertés sur le mode de Ré majeur - le vibra., quant à lui, apporte le côté brillant et joyeux - le marimba basse a un rôle polyrythmique de 3 pour 4 avec la cloche. Percu. trad. : le but de ce morceau est de se familiariser avec cette cloche, que l'on retrouve partout sur 'le chemin des esclaves', de l'Afrique à l'Amérique du sud. Touran Percu. classique : cette pièce permet de se familiariser avec les mesures asymétriques, dans un esprit dansant. Percu. trad. : technique du pandeiro sur un rythme à 7/8 - passionnant ! Saudade pour Nina et Tali Percu. classique : triangle et caxi xi donnent l'esprit du rythme de cette musique - de ce fait, les claviers doivent en tenir compte dans leur interprétation. Percu. trad. : technique d'interprétation autour du rythme du Nordeste (Brésil), le baiao. Les Feuilles mortes Percu. classique : il est important d'être à l'écoute des percu. traditionnelles afin que l'aspect syncopé dans le binaire soit bien interprété. Percu. trad. : l'intérêt est dans les techniques de congas et la connaissance des principaux rythmes cubains, la 'rumba guaguanco' , le 'chacha loquafon' (binaire) et le 'bembé' (ternaire) / Niveau : Débutant à Intermédiaire / variété - jazz / Méthode / Percussions
