The Wind Band is a completely new concept for class and group lessons with wood and brass players. It is aimed primarily at children of primary school age and is the result of intensive collaboration with music schools, wind bands and primary schools. The range is the same for all instruments, so that all songs and voices can be worked on together. Numerous exercises on approach, posture, intonation and register play, accompanying audio playbacks and a large pool of play pieces open up new perspectives for thewind class, from small group lessons to representative school preludes and concerts. With the brass band, we now have a well thought-out concept for young brass and woodwind players that promises methodologically meaningful and musically interesting class lessons. We can look forward to the continuation. (Lutz Gohmann, practicing & making music 6/09) 'Die Blaserbande' is an exciting concept for creative and practice-oriented music lessons in elementary schools and will certainly also offer many wind orchestras some new ideas for training their own offspring (Matthias Riedel, neue musikzeitung 11/09) Songs for every tonal space, mostly in German and generally in such a way that the children think it's cool, that is, they really see themselves as a gang - with real gang songs. [...] Above all, however, this is the essential characteristic of the brass band: the sound material is the same for all wind instruments! (Bernhard Gortheil, author of the brass band, practice & make music 2/10).

Appalachian fiddle music, based on the musical traditions of the people who settled in the mountainous regions of the southeastern United States, is widely-known and played throughout North America and parts of Europe because of its complex rhythms, its catchy melodies, and its often-ancient-sounding stylistic qualities. The authors explore the lives and music of 43 of the classic Appalachian fiddlers who were active during the first half of the 20th century. Some of them were recorded commercially in the 1920s, such as Gid Tanner, Fiddlin? John Carson, and Charlie Bowman. Some were recorded by folklorists from the Library of Congress, such as William Stepp, Emmett Lundy, and Marion Reece. Others were recorded informally by family members and visitors, such as John Salyer, Emma Lee Dickerson, and Manco Sneed. All of them played throughout most of their lives and influenced the growth and stylistic elements of fiddle music in their regions. Each fiddler has been given a chapter with a biography, several tune transcriptions, and tune histories. To show the richness of the music, the authors make a special effort to show the musical elements in detail, but also acknowledge that nothing can take the place of listening. Many of the classic recordings used in this book can be found on the web, allowing you to hear and read the music together.
