Par DUCKETT RICHARD / LOANE C.. Suitable for use by individuals, as well as tutors working with student ensembles, the Team Strings series has been developed to introduce musicians to playing as part of a group. All of the books in the series are fully integrated, allowing students using Team Strings to play in ensembles with students using Team Woodwind, Team Brass, Team Percussion and Team Recorder. Team Strings: Viola is a flexible and adaptable course ideal for beginner Viola players. The tutor can be tailored to suit the specific needs of each student. Each piece is carefully graded to ensure a logical progression at a sensible pace and students are introduced to a wide variety of musical styles throughout the book. Team Strings has been specially written to support almost any combination of string instruments that the teacher may encounter. Imaginative Piano Accompaniments have been provided as well as helpful notes and clear ensemble scores to aid the teacher. Team Strings also includes all of the scales for the relevant grades set by the major examination boards. This volume comes complete with a CD of backing tracks designed to add a third dimension to practice sessions or performance when an accompanist is not available. / Niveau : Débutant / Recueil / Alto

We owe a debt of gratitude to the clarinettist Richard Mühlfeld for making the elderly Brahms so interested in his instrument. In the 1890s the composer wrote the Trio op. 114, the Quintet op. 115 and the Sonatas op. 120 - three gems in the clarinet chamber music repertoire. Brahms also provided a part for viola as an alternative to the clarinet. The revision of our edition of the viola version of opus 120 is based on the musical text of the New Brahms Complete Edition and in many respects contains significant improvements: we were able to consult the autograph for the first time - the newly set piano score now contains the viola part - and viola players can benefit from fingerings and bowings by Tabea Zimmermann in the solo part. / Alto Et Piano
