Improvisation is at the heart of jazz, but knowing how to play stylistically correct in a large jazz ensemble is also a necessity. How to Play Lead Trombone in a Big Band offers tips, suggestions, examples and a play along CD to help you put it all together. How to Play Lead Trombone in a Big Band by Mark Kellogg is an annotated guide written to help trombonists explore the joys and challenges of playing in a large jazz ensemble. Topics covered include the distinct roles of lead and section players in a big band; playing with a cohesive section sound; and performing with an even sense of balance, intonation, and rhythmic feel. These insightful comments are conveyed by taking a detailed look at seven compositions and addressing the specific challenges of each work. The CD which accompanies this text provides a helpful aural guide, enabling the trombonist to listen to each example or to play along with the recording. The variety of jazz styles covered in this volume include medium swing, funk, bossa, fast swing, and Afro-Cuban feels. Composers and arrangers of these pieces include some of the most innovative and respected voices of the genre, such as Clare Fischer, Bill Dobbins, Jim Snidero, Heiner Wiberny, and Joey Sellers. This publication is designed for use by trombonists of all ages and experience levels.

Aldeburgh Trilogy consists of the separate works Bubo bubo (2002), Counter Phrases (2002-03) and Red House (2013).Bubo bubo was composed as a tribute to Oliver Knussen on his 50th birthday and is based on two quotes from his works. As Knussen is known to have had a special passion for owls, and his house was filled with statues and images of these birds, Lindberg chose to name his piece after the biggest owl there is - Bubo bubo, the Eurasian (or European) eagle-owl.Counter Phrases was composed as a ballet for Ictus Ensemble, Rosas Dance Company and Anne Teresa de Keersmaeker (choreographer).Red House was commissioned by the Royal Philharmonic Society and the Britten-Pears Foundation to celebrate the centenary of Britten's birth and the bicentenary of the Society. The Red House at Aldeburgh was Britten's home; the name of the piece was chosen to honour Britten and the memorable times Lindberg and colleagues spent at this landmark when leading BPF masterclasses.

Mit dem Einzug des Computers in die Musik habe sich etwas geandert. Die einen postulieren diese Anderung von theoretischer Seite her, die anderen praktizieren jetzt mit Computeruntertutzung das noch immer Gleiche, die dritten sehen hier zukunftsweisende interaktivmultimediale Cross-Over Potentiale oder nutzen die neuen Materialien als virtuell-perfekte Fassade fur weltweite potjemkische Dorfer, die vierten suchen und fragen und moglicherweise finden sie als funfte - wie sollen wir da noch einer eigenen Orientierung folgen, zu der wir auch ab und an Abstand nehmen konnen?Indem das Neue als etwas Altes betrachtet wird, konnen wir vielleicht das Neue im Neuen ohne Zwang und Beliebigkeit entdecken - und das Neue im Alten als Erfrischung auf dem Weg.Ohne Sinn kein Sinn. Unsere Sinne bilden die Grundlage fur Sinn. Alle digitalen Signale mussen noch in analoge verwandelt werden, damit wir sie wahrnehmen und interpretieren konnen, damit wir Sinn erzeugen konnen. Die Moglichkeit, in der digitalen Welt beliebig 'mappen' zu konnen, tauscht uns vor, einen universalen Schlussel fur die Produktion und Interpretation kunstlerischer Erlebnisse zu besitzen. Diese Annahme kann uns darin behindern, das kunstlerische Potential der digitalen Technologie zu begreifen.In den gut 25 Jahren seiner Arbeit mit Computern als Komponist, Produzent, Grunder des Instituts fur Musik und Akustik im Zentrum fur Kunst und Medientechnologie Karlsruhe und derzeitiger Grunder des 'Experimental Media and Performing Arts Center' (EMPAC) am 'Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute' in den USA hat Johannes Goebel in Vortragen und Aufsatzen die Veranderung der (kunstlerischen) Werkzeuge durch die digitale Technologie reflektiert. Er bietet eine hervorlockende Herangehensweise an, digitale Technologie, Musik, die Kunste und den Menschen als Handelnden und Wahrnehmenden zu betrachten.Mit uber 2 Stunden Hormaterial auf einer Audio-CD mit ROM-Teil (PC/MAC).
