Par VAN NUETEN GUY. Contact by Guy Van Nueten originated from the feeling of being abandoned, such as a person who treks through a barren desert following a great disaster and asks himself if there's any point in carrying on when every day brings just more of the same - still more desert. I suspect that each of us has such a desert within himself, but that it depends on circumstances whether or not we choose to make the journey through it. Contact lays out a path that we can share. This music seems especially romantic to me, in the sense that the sounds have much to say about loneliness. There are moments where this album emphasises its own seriousness, then immediately afterwards invites us todance. Contact sticks out a hand, sometimes two, mostly to show the internal process of the composer - firstly the lack of fire and the abandoned longing for this, followed by the bewilderment that there is something that is still smouldering and that can be fanned into a blazing forest fire to burn away all the pain of desolation. For this reason it is also moving music - because it wants the recognition of the listener, wants us to feel our own desolation while the piano explores further depths and heights. At times a composition is almost carelessly abandoned and another one begun. Whoever looks closely at feelings and is honest with himself and the world is always a little cruel. But finally there is an end to that desert - he sees an oasis and also a beautiful hotel. Upon entering, he sees no-one, not even at the desk, but the reigning play of light and colour is of an otherworldly power. Maybe no other people are needed here and the beauty that prevails is enough. Then sounds of music arise and some people move across to the immense hall where a wing has been set up, behind which a man is sitting, his fingers moving across the keyboard. And only one thing is real: after desolation comes comfort. That person is you and that person is me. And that music is called Contact, directly from the soul of Van Nueten.

Live recordings of the piano parts are available to download free of charge-The music in this book has been composed as a direct result of an increasing demand from players interested in breaking into the world of show playing. The skill of the multi-instrumentalist has long been a given for theatre orchestrators and indeed the parts in recent years have become steadily more complicated. Teaching posts now frequently require applicants to play 'woodwind' and should a career be considered in anything other than orchestral playing then the ability to play more than one instrument is invaluable. In my own case after I left Music College I rapidly found that playing one instrument was simply not enough. At thetime of writing Music Colleges have now started to recognise that the 'multi- instrumentalist' is now a specialist area of study and in some cases they are developing courses in woodwind doubling. These pieces are designed to be practiced and performed whilst sitting down. This emulates the environment of a pit player with the instruments required (Flute Clarinet and Alto Sax) ready on stands in front of you exactly as a recording studio or theatre pit. Quick instrument changes and varying styles provide you with an insight into the world of a multi-instrumentalist. Your aim is to always 'make the change' cleanly and on time. Live recordings of the Piano parts expertly played by Torquil Munro are available to download free of charge. - Paul Saunders

A curious child climbs up to the attic and discovers a jumble of boxes, trunks, old clothes, and dusty junk. There, a black leather case catches her eye. She pries it open and finds inside an old Violin - her grandmother's from high school. Sitting on the floor, she tunes the strings and tightens the bow. As she draws the bow across the strings, the Violin becomes alive with music. To her delight, she discovers more and more treasures in the attic. Staccato rain plays on the roof just above where she looks through her trove of riches, playing a new melody with each discovery...John Walker has composed a new series of short recital and study pieces set in a magical world. Specially designed for the intermediate-level musician, these 20 works evoke the spirit of musical discovery while helping students learn new phrasing, fingerings and articulations. A welcome addition to every student's library, this musical adventure will both teach and entertain. / Violon
