This Drones, Variations, Ornaments sheet music is the full score for this innovative and dramatic piece by Nico Muhly . According to Muhly , this piece is music in constant transformation, featuring steadily evolving melodies from a number of instruments, punctuated with hugely original percussive parts, with instructions to fill the Cymbal with chain, coins and other metal objects in order to make it sound like glass shattering. It is this inspired composition that makes Drones, Variations, Ornaments the interesting and acclaimed piece that it is. With this piece, Muhly has attempted to recreate the sound and motion of a machine through music. String chords begin the piecewith a light and soothing opening, before the machine (made up of Winds, Guitar, Percussion and Piano) awakens. This truly unusual piece is a joy to listen to and perform, and we are pleased to offer this full score to you.

Yoshiko Kurokawa's new proposal of piano technique. The author, Yoshiko Kurokawa, explains that you can easily and effectively learn the basic techniques that are important for piano performance, as described in Chopin's Draft of Technique, Brahms' Practice Book, and Hummel's Theory of Piano Technique. In addition to warm-up and exercise pieces by the auther Kurokawa herself, the book includes works by composers such as Hummel, Clementi, and Mozart, as well as exercise-specific exercises by Japanese composer Yasuhisa Tohma. The book is full of essential elements for piano playing and techniques, such as control of tone and volume balance in accompaniment form, awareness of palm strength essential for playing heavy notes, various ways of playing ornamented notes, tone and joint training depending on how the arms are placed when crossing, and important future techniques using the wrists and arms.

The present collection has been compiled for descant recorder. This instrument was ousted from use in the age of the Viennese Classics, and it has regained its rights only in the present century. This explains why the collection comprises-in addition to new Hungarian music-almost exclusively Renaissance and Baroque works. As it is well known, the masters of old times put down their works only in outline, and the music has to be reconstructed by a practised performer. This collection is intended to help in assimilating the spirit of these old styles. All the old works are given here in both their original and ornamented variants. The ornamentations have been taken over fromcontemporaneous arrangements, and where none were available, we worked them out on the basis of contemporaneous performing practice. All the solutions serve only as suggestions with his expanding stylistic knowledge the student himself should also boldly invent and extemporize ornamentation! Die vorliegende Sammlung ist für Sopran-Blockflöte zusammengestellt. Dieses Instrument wurde zur Zeit der Wiener Klassiker aus der Praxis verdrängt und erlangte erst in diesem Jahrhundert wieder seine Rechte. Dies erklärt die Zusammensetzung unserer Sammlung, die außer der neuen ungarischen Musik fast ausschließlich Werke der Renaissance und des Barocks enthält. Es ist allgemein bekannt, daß die alten Meister ihre Musik nur skizzenhaft notierten, und die berufenen Interpreten sollen ihre Werke rekonstruieren. Der Zweck der Sammlung ist: hilfreich die Aneignung des Geistes der alten Stile zu fördern. Wir bringen alle alten Werke in der ursprünglichen und verzierten Variante.Die Ornamente wurden aus zeitgenössischen Bearbeitungen genommen, und wo solche uns nicht zur Verfügung standen, wurden die Ornamente aufgrund der zeitgenössischen Vortragspraxis ausgearbeitet. Diese Lösungen sind lediglich Vorschläge.

Musical interpretation is first and foremost a question of shaping a melody or the melodic line of a setting. Music, like any language, follows its own set of rules and a sufficient knowledge and familiarity with musical 'grammar' is therefore an essential prerequisite of any convincing interpretation. The internationally renowned performer and teacher Peter-Lukas Graf explains in great detail the parameters that have to be taken into account for a successful interpretation: rhythm, metre, agogics, articulation, phrasing, ornamentation and implied polyphony, etc. Numerous examples from the flute repertoire of the 17th-20th century serve as models from which he derives the 'rules' appropriate for an interpretation in keeping with each period. * These rules are not intended to be dogmatic but instead should stimulate the players to form their own opinion. About 'rules' * Preface * Golden rules for the interpreter * The structure and analysis of melody * Notes on the execution of ornamentation in the 17th and 18th centuries * Ornamentation in the 19th and 20th centuries * Phrasing * Rhythm * Accents * Dynamics * Tempo * Metre * Flexibility of rhythm/rubato * Shaping the musical phrase * Conclusion * Bibliography * Index * Musical examples.

It is difficult to determine exactly how many oboe concertos Antonio Vivaldi wrote. Although the present Concerto in F major was earlier seen as a secure work by Vivaldi (therefore it has the old RV-number 458), Vivaldi's authorship got even more disputable (in contrast to the C major Concerto RV 446 MR 2294). The doubts cannot even be dispelled by the existence of two sources from a large collection in Lund, Sweden. The Adagio central movement deserves our particular attention, as it was transmitted in different versions in the two sources. In this first edition for oboe and piano, the non-ornamented version is given first and followed by the version supplied by editor Sandro Caldini with ornaments typical of Vivaldi's time, which make this version of the Adagio particularly interesting for performers.In this first edition for oboe and piano, the non-ornamented version is given first and followed by the version supplied by editor Sandro Caldini with ornaments typical of Vivaldi's time.
