Four Album Leaves, Op. 28 is a set of pieces for piano solo composed by Edvard Grieg. The set was first published in 1878 in Leipzig by C.F. Peters. The Album Leaves were composed over the span of almost fifteen years. As such, they present a fascinating cross-section of Grieg's pianistic and compositional development. They are arranged in chronological order as follows: Allegro con moto (1864), Allegretto espressivo (1874), Vivace (1876), and Andantino serioso (1878).Having realized some years ago that due to Griegâs way of writing for the piano, that they would fit wonderfully on two guitars, I began with this set, and then moved onto more of his works, finally transcribing his complete set of 10 books of Lyric Pieces (66 pieces in all), all of which are available as separate publications at Les Productions DâOz. I hope you enjoy playing them as much as I, and my duet partner Ann, do.Quatre feuilles d'album, op. 28 est un ensemble de pièces pour piano seul composé par Edvard Grieg. L'ensemble a été publié pour la première fois en 1878 à Leipzig par C.F. Pierre. Lâalbum Leaves a été composé sur une période de près de quinze ans. En tant que tels, ils présentent un aperçu fascinant du développement pianistique et compositionnel de Grieg. Ils sont classés par ordre chronologique comme suit : Allegro con moto (1864), Allegretto espressivo (1874), Vivace (1876) et Andantino serioso (1878).Ayant réalisé il y a quelques années qu'en raison de la manière d'écrire de Grieg pour le piano, elles s'adapteraient à merveille à deux guitares, j'ai commencé avec cet ensemble, puis je suis passé à d'autres de ses Åuvres, pour finalement transcrire sa série complète de 10 recueils de paroles. Pièces (66 pièces au total), toutes disponibles sous forme de publications séparées aux Productions D'Oz. J'espère que vous prendrez autant de plaisir à les jouer que moi et ma partenaire Ann, en duo.

Louise Farrenc was a profoundly influential French composer, performer, professor, and author. Though she would ultimately become quite a sought-after performer, her potential as a composer was recognized quite early on. Women were not permitted to enroll in conventional composition classes at the Conservatoire de Paris at the time, but, she did receive private lessons from Anton Reicha, the professor of composition there. Years later she would receive a permanent appointment as Professor of Piano at the same institution, a position she held for thirty years. She was the only woman during the 19th century to bear that title. Her piano etudes possess pedagogical value as well as great beauty and character. These works lend themselves quite well to the guitar duo setting. While I have rendered all of Farrencâs melodies quite faithfully, I have taken liberties with the accompaniments in order to make them more idiomatic to the guitar. Likewise, many of the effects of which the guitar is capable have been brought to bear in ways that deviate from the original intent of the etude. Alternatively, the challenges that some of these etudes were meant to address for the piano student are amplified by this adaptation. For example, etude 5 is intended to enable the piano student to improve the coordination between their left and right hands. It certainly presents a challenge in that regard to the guitar duo!These selections are entirely suitable for guitarists with limited experience, though they could, of course, be beautifully realized by players with a great deal more experience as well.Louise Farrenc était une compositrice, interprète, professeur et auteure française profondément influente. Même si elle deviendra finalement une interprète très recherchée, son potentiel en tant que compositrice est reconnu très tôt. Les femmes n'étaient pas autorisées à s'inscrire aux cours de composition conventionnels au Conservatoire de Paris à l'époque, mais elle recevait des cours particuliers d'Anton Reicha, le professeur de composition du Conservatoire de Paris. Des années plus tard, elle recevra un poste permanent de professeur de piano dans la même institution, poste qu'elle occupera pendant trente ans. Elle était la seule femme au XIXe siècle à porter ce titre.Ses études pour piano possèdent une valeur pédagogique ainsi qu'une grande beauté et un grand caractère. Ces Åuvres se prêtent assez bien au montage en duo de guitares. Même si jâai rendu assez fidèlement toutes les mélodies de Farrenc, jâai pris des libertés avec les accompagnements afin de les rendre plus idiomatiques à la guitare. De même, de nombreux effets dont la guitare est capable ont été mis en Åuvre dâune manière qui sâécarte de lâintention originale de lâétude. Alternativement, les défis que certaines de ces études étaient censées relever pour l'étudiant en piano sont amplifiés par cette adaptation. Par exemple, l'étude 5 est destinée à permettre à l'élève de piano d'améliorer la coordination entre ses mains gauche et droite. Cela représente certainement un défi à cet égard pour le duo de guitares !Ces sélections conviennent parfaitement aux guitaristes ayant une expérience limitée, même si elles pourraient bien sûr également être magnifiquement réalisées par des musiciens beaucoup plus expérimentés.

Le premier mouvement, Aeolian Chant, est basé sur un thème d'un ami à moi (qui n'est pas musicien !) et est développé avec quelques autres idées dans un style semi-improvisé, et ne met en avant que les cordes. J'ai combiné une mélodie italienne du XIVe siècle avec une ancienne danse campagnarde anglaise pour le deuxième mouvement, Double Dance, qui introduit les instruments à vent. Le troisième mouvement, Ballad, est ici révisé par rapport à sa version originale et inclut maintenant le thème à la clarinette avec un accompagnement obligé de guitare. Le dernier mouvement, Toccata, est rapide, mais pas aussi difficile qu'il n'en a l'air, ce qui plaira à la plupart des interprètes !The first movement, Aeolian Chant, is based on a theme by a friend of mine, (not a musician!) and is developed with some other ideas in a semi-improvisatory style and features only strings. I combined a 14th Century Italian melody with an old English country dance for the second movement, Double Dance, which introduces the wind instruments. The third movement, Ballad, is here revised from its original version and now includes the theme on clarinet with guitar obbligato. The last movement, Toccata, is fast, but not as difficult as it sounds, which will appeal to most players!

Deux Airs populaires cubains (Dos aires populares cubanos) and Deux Thèmes populaires cubains (Dos temas populares cubanos) were written in the 1960s and published by Éditions Max Eschig in 1972 and 1978. These two pieces belong to the genre of arrangements of popular songs for solo instruments that was a widespread presence in the plucked-string repertoire from the sixteenth century on. In these two cycles, Leo Brouwer reworks Cuban popular music with his usual instrumental originality. In the first cycle, Brouwer did not alter any of the melodic or structural elements of the original songs, only embellishing these with introductions, harmony, and some structure. In the second cycle however, the original dance was composed by Brouwer himself, imitating Cuban popular music characterised by both Spanish and African influences. Rather than being based on actual folk repertoire, it draws its inspiration from it and attempts to recreate its sonic ambiance. Zigante interventions, made on the scores published during the 1970s, consist of the correction of a few errors and restoring some of the original repeat signs as conceived by Brouwer. Any fingering indicationswere added by Leo Brouwer himself.

J’ai composé « Thracian Tale » en 2024 pour George Vassilev. Le titre fait référence au peuple de Thrace qui habitait dans les Balkans et plus particulièrement dans le territoire de la Bulgarie actuelle. La pièce est composée en forme A-B-A et le langage utilisé - comme dans la plupart de mes pièces - est basé essentiellement sur des modes et des rythmes issues de la musique des Balkans. Elle est enrichie avec l’utilisation de chromatismes, d’hémioles pour varier la pulsation de base ainsi que de différentes techniques instrumentales.I composed Thracian Tale in 2024 for George Vassilev.

Learn the Berklee approach to guitar chords. This book will help you develop fluency in basic fretboard harmonic knowledge, tone, time feel, facility, and endurance. You will learn to play, use, and understand guitar chords in a variety of styles and musical applications including blues, jazz, pop, and singer-songwriter styles. Develop a toolbox of chordal vocabulary including triads, four-part chords, and guide-tone voicings with tensions.

Accompanying audio tracks let you practice the techniques and perform them with a live band. You will learn to: • Become a more expressive and versatile guitarist through developing a wider chord vocabulary of types and voicing options, learning to play with accuracy, tone, and a strong rhythmic feel. • Construct, understand, and play common and advanced chord types up, down, and across the fingerboard: triads, seventh chords, power chords, chords with tensions, and others. • Develop an intuitive understanding of how chords are built, from simple power chords and triads to four-part chords with altered tensions. • Choose chord voicings that make your accompanying parts and improvisations sound smoother – with harmonically sophisticated shapes that are easier to play.
