10 Easy Pieces. Par IGUDESMAN ALEKSEY. 'In the Zoo 2” is a further collection of intermediate pieces for violin and piano by Aleksey Igudesman, depicting many of a child's favourite animals. Spanning from UK Grade 2 to 4, they will inspire young violinists to interpret the sounds and actions of the animals as notated by the composer and help them understand how abstract music can depict something very real. But what makes these compositions ingenious as teaching pieces is that, hidden within, are very useful technical studies. For example, in 'The Turtle”, steady bowing is needed to make a good tone in the long notes depicting this slow-moving creature. In 'The Crocodile”, short, staccato double stops (easy ones!) depict the snapping jaws and are contrasted with legato, sinuous passages as the animal creeps up on its prey! A clever piano part allows the teacher to support his or her young student and perhaps make a captivating concert piece for the end of term presentation. / Niveau : Facile / Recueil / Violon et Piano

He was awarded an honorary Doctorate by the University of Southampton in 2002 in recognition of his Services to Music. 'Noël was a welcome addition to the Christmas list for decent standard choirs - Noël 2 adds even more to the repertoire in a handy volume... The main enticements are some fantastic new arrangements of old favourites, a number of works previously only available in single sheets (Whitacre's Lux Arumque among others) and some fantastic new surprises. Adrian Peacock's Venite, Gaudete is a wonderfully original and vibrant setting, Richard Rodney Bennet's I Wonder as I Wander is both reflective and effective, and there are plenty more. Some of the pieces here will challenge your choir, but there's a vast amount to get the Christmas inspiration flowing.

The central Piano works of Charles Tomlinson Griffes (1884-1920) share with Claude Debussy?s music those distinctive harmonies and rhythms that typify impressionism in the early 20th century. In that period of 1910 to about 1916 the era of Debussy?s ?Sunken Cathedral? and ?Ondine? Griffes composed his evocative ?The Lake at Evening? ?The White Peacock? and ?The Fountain of Acqua Paola.? This highly coloured music free in form and strongly pictorial signalled Griffes? creative break from his student work in Berlin infusing his music with experimental parallel harmonies whole-note scales fluid rhythms poeticreferences and tinges of orientalism typical of the style and its time. This fine collection contains all of the essential works of Griffes? central period: Three Tone-Pictures Op.5 (?The Lake at Evening ? ?The Vale of Dreams ? and ?The Night Winds?); Fantasy Pieces Op.6 (?Barcarolle ? ?Notturno ? and ?Scherzo?); and Roman Sketches Op. 7 (?The White Peacock ? ?Nightfall ? ?The Fountain of the Acqua Paola ? and ?Clouds?). The volume concludes with Griffes? Piano Sonata completed in early 1918 just two years before his premature death. Written at the peak of Griffes? creative power it is one of the composer?s most striking works and a complete break from his earlier style classically structured and uncompromisingly dissonant.
