Developed by Robin Jarman to enable anyone to accompany songs on the piano without music, change key when a song is pitched too low or too high, and provide accompaniment when only the melody and chord symbols are given. It is ideal for teachers, students, parents, and members of the community who would like to accompany sing-alongs. The book does assume that the student can sing in tune, can read simple rhythm and notation, is familiar with the treble and bass clefs and the piano keyboard, and has a sense of humor and a desire to learn. Includes access to online audio and video recordings that walk you through the exercises, providing additional instruction and help.

These little pieces for the most part come from Handel's Aylesforder Pieces which were published for the first time a few years ago. As almost all of them are written in two-voice versions, i.e. as melody with bass, they are ideal for performances with recorder and basso continuo (piano, harpsichord, spinet). In the original form, the pieces can also be performed as duets.

With these new editions, all six recorder concertos of John Baston are now available, each with score, piano score and parts. The thor-oughly edited scores follow essentially the first edition printed by John Walsh in London in 1729. Baston was regarded as an excellent recorder and flute player who worked with London opera orchestras in the early 18th century. His easy concertos anticipating the elegant melody of the early classical period enjoy great popularity representing a rewarding task for music school orchestras and advanced recorder players.

ISBN 9781491160992. UPC: 680160919598. Key: E minor. Finnish, English. Finnish Carol with additional words by Dan Miner.
Accompanied by piano and oboe, this traditional carol offers treble choirs an opportunity to explore the beauty of traditional Finnish music. This arrangement offers each voice part the opportunity to lead as well as harmonize the melody throughout the verses. Care should be taken to ensure the melody is properly balanced through the harmonization in each verse. Tenutos are marked throughout to help choirs discover the simplistic beauty of this carol. Marked pitches should be stressed, but not accented. To further aid in the flow of the melodic line, I suggest a slight crescendo in each measure from beat 4 over the bar-line into beat 1 (as in m. 16-17) unless otherwise marked. An English paraphrase is offered in addition to the original Finnish text to make this song accessible to choirs of all abilities. It is my sincere hope that through this arrangement, choirs and audiences will fall in love with this simplistically beautiful carol!

This is the first in a series of books and audio/video recordings which describe a simple and pragmatic approach to improvisation. While focusing on the jazz idiom, the techniques discussed are applicable to many styles of music and all instruments, be it rock guitar, jazz saxophone, or the solos of the fusion keyboardist. The system presented in this volume offers a tangible pathway to inside the creative imagination by getting inside harmony, inside the changes. Chord changes are included for C Concert, B flat and E flat instruments. In addition the book includes transposed examples for all instruments (C treble clef, B flat, E flat and bass clef). The accompanying recording has been designed for use in conjunction with each of the chapter assignments. There are nine tunes for you to play along with, each played at a slow and then medium tempo featuring Garry Dial on piano, Dave Santoro on bass and Alan Dawson on drums, plus 12 demonstration tracks performed by the author on piano and/or tenor saxophone.
