Woodwind players in particular have cause to thank Bryan Kelly for so many tuneful and finely crafted collections of pieces written for their enjoyment. There are eight sparkling additions to the flautist's repertoire in Songs and Dances for flute and piano. An easygoing combination of baroque movements - an Intrada, Sarabande and Hornpipe - with a lively Polka and Ragtime, a Venezuelan Dance, a Grand Waltz and a soothing Irish Lament, makes for an entirely characteristic blend of moods. The standard is intermediate, and the style laconic, engaging, soigne - pure Kelly!

This unique collection celebrates the contemporary fiddle music of northeast Ireland, much of it for the first time in print. Not surprisingly, given its location and long history of traditional music, the fiddle music of this region shares some characteristics with Scottish music, yet it has its own distinct style. For those who are not familiar with this ruggedly attractive part of Ireland, this book will introduce you to some of its music and musicians. The tunes presented here, collected by County Antrim fiddler, Rowan Leslie, have all been written relatively recently by local musicians. Each tune is offered in two versions?one with the barebones melody and suggested accompaniment chords, and a second with ornamentation, articulation and bowing details. All tune types from northeast Ireland are represented, including jigs and reels, polkas and hornpipes, marches, barn dances and waltzes, plus set dances and slow airs. Moreover, the biographical sketches and backstories provided for each composer and tune demonstrate how the land itself, along with personal experiences and relationships, influence the fiddle music of northeast Ireland.

Hymns by Giovanni de Palestrina pre-date those of Bach by over a century and incorporate the great polyphonic tradition of Renaissance writing. The compositions used in this suite are from a collection published in 1589 titled Hymns of the Entire Year, and incorporate antiphonal choral effects that lend themselves particularly well to instrumental settings. John Moss uses richly contrasting tone colors and textures as well as characteristic modal tonalities in this wonderful setting for band. (3:30).

The Dance Suite for alto saxophone and piano is an arrangement of selected pieces from Matyas Seiber's Easy Dances, originally composed as piano pieces on the popular dance-styles of the 1920s and 30s and focusing particularly on the rhythmic characteristics of each. Seiber's life and work linked and developed many diverse musical influences, from the Hungarian tradition of Bartok and Kodaly, to Schoenberg and Serial Music, to jazz, folksong, film and lighter music (rewarded by an Ivor Novello Prize for 'By The Fountains of Rome'). A late collaboration with John Dankworth produced the 'Improvisations for Jazz Band and Orchestra'. Tango 1 * Tango 2 (Habanera) * Waltz * Blues * Charleston * Foxtrot * Cake-Walk.

The three pieces that make up Quasis appear, at first glance, to have little in common, but nothing could be further from the truth. Although the dances and songaEURdances come from disparate parts of the world -- Poland, Austria, America -- and from different periods, Avi Schonfeld unifies them stylistically and brings them up to date through his own musical language. He also juxtaposes contrasting forms and compositional procedures -- songaEURdance versus danceaEURsong; intimate, introvert small-scale mazurka v. epic, extrovert waltz; improvisation v. more structured writing -- and in so doing portrays different human temperaments. His aim in 'Quasi Blues' was not so much to write a traditional blues number as to create a link between his own compositional idiom and the characteristic elements of the blues.
