“These real masterpieces, even if only a few minutes long, are of tremendous melodiousness and expressiveness!”, Franz Schubert said about Friedrich Kuhlau's sonatinas.The four Sonatinas Op. 88 were written in 1827, i.e. during Friedrich Kuhlau's middle creative period, even before the great success of the opera “Elfenhügel.” and the year of Beethoven's death. All four works contain beautiful melodic ideas, but Sonatina Op. 88 No. 3 with its minor tonality, its free treatment of form and tempo in the first movement and the lively last movement is something special. Of medium difficulty, this sonatina is great fun to play.This edition is accompanied by a preface and “Teaching Notes” by Monika Twelsiek. It is part of the new Schott Student Edition series which offers varied literature at five different levels of difficulty, from 1 (easy) to 5 (difficult), for instrumental lessons. For further information on this series, see www.schott-student-edition.com.

The treble recorder and guitar are both very popular as individual instruments but are rarely heard together. Manfredo Zimmermann, working with his guitar partner Hans Brüderl, has written the music for It’s Cool for precisely this reason. The15 pieces in this collection are presented in increasing difficulty, matching the level of his Altblockflöte Vol. 1. These pieces vary in style, ranging from Renaissance melodies to original compositions. The accompanying CD contains tracks tolisten to and play along with. Separate individual parts for alto recorder and bass instrument (with chord symbols) complete the publication. A lovely and unique addition to the chamber music repertoire.Altblockflöte und Gitarre sind beide einzeln sehr beliebt, aber nur selten zusammen zu hören.

Separate Einzelstimmen für Altblockflöte sowie für ein Bassinstrument (mit Akkordsymbolen) runden die Ausgabe ab. Ein schöner und nicht alltäglicher Einstieg in die Welt derKammermusik!

Piano Music Arranged for Guitar features five early and mid-career compositions by John Cage, dating from 1933 through 1948, all arranged for solo guitar by Aaron Larget-Caplan. The compositions required little adjustment from the originals, mainly in the form of register modifications, and fit very well on the guitar. All phrase and dynamic markings follow the published originals. Very few left and right hand fingerings are included in the publication to allow the performers their own realizations. All of the works retain their original keys and are presented in chronological order:
Three Easy Pieces (Round, Duo, Infinite Cannon)
A Room
Chess Pieces
Dream
In A Landscape
Cage’s exploration of contrapuntal music and simple forms are found early on in works for two voices and the use of unusual phrases lengths. The later works explore modes, resonance, and begin to show influences of Far East aesthetics in their spaciousness and dealings with time.
The collection is only the second work in the Cage Oeuvre to be published featuring the guitar, the first being Larget-Caplan’s arrangement of ‘Six Melodies’ for violin & guitar issued in 2015.
A recording dedicated to John Cage on guitar will be released in 2018 on Stone Records Limited (UK).
