18 studies written to develop familiarity with the main types of scales and arpeggios in Jazz. More enjoyable than the scales themselves James Rae has deliberately chosen keys that give a comfortable user-friendly introduction to the various tonalities. Each section describes a particular type of scale and includes studies based on it. Included are: the major scale the dorian mode the mixolydian mode the minor pentatonic scale the jazz melodic minor scale the blues scale the chromatic scale the whole tone scale and the diminished scale. Studies in each of these volumes have been set as an alternative to scales for all grades on the Jazz Flute JazzClarinet and Jazz Saxophone syllabuses of the new Trinity Guildhall Examinations 2007.

Par FINE ELAINE. The etudes in this book offer students a musically and intellectually satisfying means of practicing scales in all major and minor keys, even while remaining in first position. Although presented in the traditional order of the circle of fifths, this is where similarities to other violin scale-oriented books end.Of course, the etudes can be played using a mixture of positions by more advanced students. The studies also resonate very well on the viola if played at pitch. These are instructive etudes and can be played as appealing solo pieces. The stepwise motion in the etudes makes intervals between pitches easy to hear, even in keys with many flats or sharps.Both the book and etude titles refer to names of animals that have scales, so you will see natural and harmonic minor scales named after various moths, and major scales named for unusual reptiles, birds, and mammals throughout. The author hopes that in addition to experiencing more enjoyable scale practice, students will be inspired to learn more about these amazing animals or even write scale studies of their own. / Date parution : 2022-07-20/ Etude / Violon

Scales and scale studies for the viola-This is a scale book of unprecedented scope. Simon Fischer has developed an entirely new method in which using the traditional ways of practising scales only as a point of departure he focuses on numerous often-neglected aspects of the Violist’s technique. For every element he has designed exercises that sensitize the ear stimulate the mind and build the playing apparatus of the Violist. The many outstanding features of this book include: how to structure intonation around perfect intervals and leading notes a new approach to learning how to time shifts extensive notation for preparing and holding down fingersone- two- three- and four-octave scales and arpeggios two-octave scales and arpeggios on one string new sequences for single-finger scales Many well-known Fischer classics are also incorporated including practice methods for intonation smooth bowing string crossing fast fingers fourth-finger extensions and placing fingers in blocks. The innovative and wide-ranging material in Scales keeps the player turning the pages discovering yet more exciting ways to approach scales. The wealth of thought-provoking exercises encourages Violists to re-evaluate their practice – developing the playing skills of Violists at all levels from intermediate to professional.

There has long been a need for a comprehensive book of elementary intermediate and advanced scales for the Viola. Since the Hrimaly scale studies filled a similar need in the Violin repertoire these scales transcribed and edited for the Viola should effectively fill a void in the Viola literature.

An important part of our Essentials of Musicianship Series Scale Studies for Band is designed to be used as an instructional aid during your normal daily practice. Written so that the scale studies can be interlaced at appropriate times into your rehearsal they enable you to address the scale and key considerations of your next piece just before starting that piece. For instance if the next arrangement you will rehearse has a section in the key of G Major you can take a moment and review the study in that key (Study Number 7). It?s amazing how many wrong notes can be avoided by reviewing the key signature in an interesting and exciting manner before diving into theperformance piece rehearsal. In the long run this ?key signature review? approach can actually save more rehearsal time than it uses. In addition to the full band aspect of Scale Studies you may find value in quickly and easily administered ?playing tests? using these materials. However you choose to use them the Scale Studies from the Curnow Music Press Essentials of Musicianship Series will be valuable indeed!

The clarinet method op. 63 by Carl Baermann from 1867 is still a standard work in classical clarinet education today. The thoroughly revised new edition aims at reviewing the educational concept, which is still valid today, for modern lessons, adjusting the music and texts, and sensibly complementing the teaching contents.The editor who draws on many years of experience as a clarinettist in an orchestra and university lecturer of clarinet has succeeded in adapting the valuable teaching material to the requirements of today while maintaining the basic methodology. The result is a total of 7 volumes:Clarinet Method Vol. 1 and Vol. 2 (ED 21761, ED 21762)Clarinet Method Vol. 1 and Vol. 2, with 2 CDs each (ED 21761-50, ED 21762-50): The CDs contain the piano accompaniment for the performance pieces, with and without clarinetTune Book 1 and 2 (ED 21763, ED 21764): piano score of the method's performance pieces, with additional inserted clarinet partDaily Exercises (ED 21765): systematic scale, interval and chord exercises in all keys, complemented and published separately from the original methodDue to trilingual nature of all editions (German, English, French), they can be used universally.About the revision:The musical text is based on the first edition of the method. Only a few differences concerning the articulation as well as some misprints and typographical errors were revised. By deleting the historical fingering instructions for the German fingering system, the clarinet method not only has a clean and, compared to the original, more clearly structured layout, but can also be used universally. The content of the text and the performance directions of the original were linguistically modernized and occasionally extended by further ideas from the teaching practice, such as concepts for warming up, breathing exercises, literature suggestions or tips for daily practising. Further additions of scale and triad studies in all major and minor keys make this method a comprehensive and thorough work of study which not only serves as teaching material for young and adult beginners, but is also a valuable compendium of scale exercises and studies for advanced musicians and is ideal for training velocity and dexterity.The Clarinet Method Vols. 1 and 2 contain not only scales and technical fingering exercises but also Baermann's popular performance pieces, like Romanze (No. 14), which are ideal as performance pieces, yet at the same time train both technique and musical expressiveness. The systematic scale, interval and chord exercises in all keys, however, were removed and are published separately in the volume Daily Exercises (ED 21765) for reasons of clarity.The two textbooks are available with or without CDs. The editions with CDs contain two audio CDs each which were recorded live by the editor and which contain a classic audio version of each performance piece as well as a pure piano version for playing along. / Clarinette

This scale system coordinates basic concepts from the Scale System by Carl Flesch. In some aspects it goes beyond the scope of the Flesch system. One-octave scales are introduced in patterns with emphasis on half steps and fingerretention. Also covers two- and three-octave scales double-stops and harmonics.
