Starke Töne ist eine Sammlung, die in Zusammenarbeit mit der Bläserjugend des Bundes Deutscher Blasmusikverbände (BDB) entstanden ist. Die Sammlung enthält eine Auswahl der beliebtesten Titel aus den Literaturlisten zum Jungmusiker-Leistungsabzeichen Bronze (D1) bzw. Junior. Die Vorteile liegen dabei klar auf der Hand: Die Instrumentalisten sparen mit diesem Buch nicht nur wertvolle Vorbereitungszeit, sondern auch bares Geld, denn wer früher mehrere Hefte anschaffen musste, hat mit Starke Töne bereits das Beste in einem Band versammelt. Somit befriedigt diese Ausgabe eine lang bestehende Nachfrage. In jeder Ausgabe ist jedes Stück mit einerKlavierbegleitung notiert; ursprüngliche Solostücke wurden eigens mit einer neu komponierten Begleitung versehen. Der Klavierpart ist in der Regel einfach bis mittelschwer, sodass die Begleitung auch von fortgeschrittenen Klavierschülern übernommen werden kann.Ein großer Vorteil für die Vorbereitung auf die praktischen Leistungsprüfungen ist die jedem Heft beiliegende CD, welche die auf einem echten Konzertflügel aufgenommenen Klavierbegleitungen enthält. Neben Einspielungen im Originaltempo sind die meisten Stücke zum leichteren Einstudieren auch in einer weiteren Version im langsameren Tempo zu hören.Mit Starke Töne ist in Zusammenarbeit mit dem BDB eine wertvolle Sammlung für alle Blasinstrumente und Klavier sowie für Schlagzeug entstanden, die selbstverständlich auch unabhängig von den Leistungsabzeichen das Unterrichts- und Vortragsrepertoire für jede dieser Besetzungen bereichert.

This rebooted triptych of short operas is family friendly and full of fun, while paying tribute to the African tradition of storytelling for all ages. Sister Sparrow, Sister Robin and Madame Partridge retell the antics of Bre'r Rabbit and his nemesis Bre'r Fox in Briar Patch, The Pot of Sense, and Madame Partridge and her Eggs. Okoye's music blends African American musical styles of jazz, blues, and gospel with contemporary concert music sounds. Combined with Moore's libretto, the result brings to mind a meeting Langston Hughes and Gilbert and Sullivan on steroids, en route to the Black church. A concert version of Briar Patch will be available for full orchestra with five soloists. Libretto by Carman Moore. The music blends African American musical styles of jazz, blues, and gospel with contemporary concert music sounds. Intended for all audiences. NOTE: Each story from the Tales from the Briar Patch is derived from African folk tales. The character Bre'r Rabbit is actually the trickster, Anansi the Spider, of ancient Ghanaian folklore. While many people associate him and his friends with Joel Chandler Harris' Uncle Remus stories, the stories predate Harris and hist stories. The creators updated the language, using all animals to portray the story, with the trio of spirited birds narrating. Producers find that the works rate well with all audiences and are especially useful for community discussions and engagement.This rebooted triptych of short operas is family friendly and full of fun, while paying tribute to the African tradition of storytelling for all ages.
