Par ARCHER DEVAN. This book presents extended solo piano settings of eight Christmas favorites plus a new take on ?Brahms? Lullaby,? all with a touch of country keyboard technique. Each intermediate to advanced arrangement is replete with anticipatory grace notes, a bit of western swing harmony and rhythm in the classic country style popularized by Floyd Cramer. Author/arranger Devan Archer has added his own brand of challenging counterpoint. The ?Nashville Sound? has long been a presence in gospel, pop and rock music but appears here in a Christmas repertoire, perhaps for the first time. ?Good King Wenceslas? and ?God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen? have never swung so hard! Includes access to online electronic audio recording. / Date parution : 2021-12-09/ Recueil / Piano

The singing of hymns and psalms in worship pre-dates Christianity. It is something that Jesus himself would have been familiar with in the temple and he certainly sang at the Last Supper; and after psalms had been sung they leftfor the Mount of Olives writes Matthew. Although none of the hymns on this recording can be dated from the time of our Lord we do start at the 7th century and the listener will hear many of the hymns most loved by today'sChristians.Some of the hymns are sung in the traditional manner; others have been newly arranged in a strikingly original way by Colin Mawby while the remainder are prefaced or followed by a short improvisation byMalcolm Archer. We feel that the recording amply demonstrates that hymn-singing is not just alive and well but flourishing beyond all measure.Malcolm Archer and Colin Mawby made the arrangements for this recording a factthat speaks for itself! Plenty of style.

The work of Paul Hindemith is encyclopedic in nature. From the outset, he worked in all musical genres and devised several of his musical ideas and projects not as individual, self-contained works but as work cycles with different functional relationships. These contrasting pieces complement each other if experienced as part of the overall structure. Hindemith himself not only wanted a complete edition of his collected works but had begun planning it - at his death he left a detailed list of ?Unpublished pieces for an eventual complete edition'.The Complete Works contain all finished works in all extant versions, newly engraved for the edition. Sketches and fragments are published in appendices of the relevant volume, and are evaluated in the Introduction and Critical Commentary by the respective volume editor.Each volume contains a preface by the editorial directors and an introduction by the volume editor, delineating the genesis and performance history of the work, with authentic performance instructions, an evaluation of extant recordings by Paul Hindemith himself and a Critical Commentary.The Complete Works of Paul Hindemith are thus presented in a critical, scholarly edition which is equally appropriate for study and performance. Hindemith researchers will welcome the numerous first publications of works by the composer, and practical musicians will appreciate the newly prepared, philologically ordered performance material. / Score

Par ARCHER MALCOLM. This exciting work packs a huge amount of musical variety into its compact frame, despite being written with the needs of developing organists in mind.
