New Products Autumn / Winter 2015/16 CONTENT SCHOTT MUSIC New products Autumn / Winter 2015/16 CONTENT Did you know that it has been more than 150 years since Schott Music published their fi rst instrumental method books? Many of our methods continue to be used by musicians and music teachers; whether it’s "The European Piano Method“ by Fritz Emonts or “Fun and Games” for Recorder, students continue to learn from Schott’s instrumental series. We are dedicating our Autumn publishing output to a range of instrumental books for beginners, as many studies have shown the importance a relaxed approach to music making can have on both musical and personal development. As you browse through our selection of new titles, you will fi nd something for all ages: for the younger beginner “My First” series for piano, and instrumental books in our ever popular Schott World Music series. For the older beginner and adult re-learner a selection of new Dr. Peter Hanser-Strecker repertoire from the Schott and Boosey & Hawkes stable. Publisher On behalf of Schott Music and our international partners I hope you have a lot of fun reading, browsing and especially making music!

  • Let Me Be Your Guide: 21St Century Choir Music in Flanders
    Let me be your guide: 21st century choir music in Flanders Flanders has a rich tradition of choir music. But what about the 21st century? Meet the composers in this who's who. Alain De Ley Alain De Ley (° 1961) gained his first musical experience as a singer of the Antwerp Cathedral Choir, while he was still behind the school desks in the Sint-Jan Berchmans College in Antwerp. He got a taste for it and a few years later studied flute with Remy De Roeck and piano with Patrick De Hooghe, Freddy Van der Koelen, Hedwig Vanvaerenbergh and Urbain Boodts). In 1979 he continued his studies at the Royal Music Conservatory in Antwerp. Only later did he take private composition lessons with Alain Craens. Alain De Ley prefers to write music for choir and smaller ensembles. As the artistic director of the Flemish Radio Choir, he is familiar with the possibilities and limitations of a singing voice. Since 2003 Alain De Ley is composer in residence for Ensemble Polyfoon that premiered a great number of his compositions and recorded a CD dedicated to his music, conducted by Lieven Deroo He also received various commissions from choirs like Musa Horti and Amarylca, Kalliope and from the Flanders Festival. Alain De Ley’s music is mostly melodic, narrative, descriptive and reflective. Occasionally Alain De Ley combines the classical writing style with pop music. This is how the song Liquid Waltz was created in 2003 for choir, solo voice and pop group, sung by K’s Choice lead singer Sarah Bettens. He also regularly writes music for projects in which various art forms form a whole.

  • Steve Reich's Phases of Phases: a Comparison of Electric
    Steve Reich’s Phases of Phases: A Comparison of Electric Counterpoint and Radio Rewrite Erin Main, May 12th, 2016 21M.260, WC: 3478 Introduction. Minimalism developed primarily during the 1950s, 60s, and 70s amidst a rising counterculture in America. Minimalist artists in the 50s defied expectations of what “art” should be; one example is the color fields of artists such as Ad Reinhardt.1 Minimalist artists focused on the very deliberate creation of works that were comprised of the smallest amount of discernible qualities; with the aforementioned color fields, the viewer was intended to observe the minutiae of the brush strokes of the artist.2 In the mid-60s, minimalist music also started to take hold, driven by the efforts of composers Terry Riley, La Monte Young, Philip Glass, and Steve Reich.3 Reich is well-known for pioneering process-based music, as established in his 1968 essay “Music as a Gradual Process.”4 Process-based music is characterized by its minimal amount of material, with development (a musical process) occurring through changes in the material over a period of time.5 Reich’s most prominent type of process is phase shifting, which involves “placing a simple repeating pattern in different combinations with itself.”6 Due to the very nature of process-based composition, Reich’s music has a “structurally lucid aesthetic,” as the material 1 Jonathan W.

A DISSERTATION IN FINE ARTS Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Texas Tech University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Approved Accepted August, 1994 t ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to extend my appreciation to Dr. William Westney, not only for the excellent advice he offered during the course of this project, but also for the fine example he set as an artist, scholar and teacher during my years at Texas Tech University. The others on my dissertation committee-Dr. Wayne Hobbs, director of the School of Music, Dr. Kenneth Davis, Dr. Richard Weaver and Dr. Daniel Nathan-were all very helpful in inspiring me to complete this work. Ms. Barbi Dickensheet at the graduate school gave me much positive assistance in the final preparation and layout of the text. My father, Mr. Savino Purrone, as well as my family, were always very supportive. European American Music granted me permission to reprint my arrangement—this was essential, and I am thankful for their help and especially for Ms. Caroline Kane's assistance in this matter. Many other individuals assisted me, sometimes without knowing it. To all I express my heartfelt thanks and appreciation. 11 TABLE OF CONTENTS ACKNOWLEDGMENTS ii CHAPTER L INTRODUCTION 1 n.

Stravinsky is one of the most important neo-classical composers of the twentieth century. The purpose of this document is to examine how Stravinsky upholds his neoclassical aesthetic in his violin writing through his two pieces, Suite italienne and Duo Concertant. In these works, Stravinsky’s use of neoclassicism is revealed in two opposite ways. In Suite Italienne, Stravinsky based the composition upon actual music from the eighteenth century. In Duo Concertant, Stravinsky followed the stylistic features of the eighteenth century without parodying actual music from that era. Important types of violin writing are described in these two works by Stravinsky, which are then compared with examples of eighteenth-century violin writing. iii Igor Stravinsky (1882-1971) was born in Oranienbaum (now Lomonosov) in Russia near St.

  • The Critical Reception of Tippett's Operas
    Between Englishness and Modernism: The Critical Reception of Tippett’s Operas Ivan Hewett (Royal College of Music) [email protected] The relationship between that particular form of national identity and consciousness we term ‘Englishness’ and modernism has been much discussed1. It is my contention in this essay that the critical reception of the operas of Michael Tippett sheds an interesting and revealing light on the relationship at a moment when it was particularly fraught, in the decades following the Second World War. Before approaching that topic, one has to deal first with the thorny and many-sided question as to how and to what extent those operas really do manifest a quality of Englishness. This is more than a parochial question of whether Tippett is a composer whose special significance for listeners and opera-goers in the UK is rooted in qualities that only we on these islands can perceive. It would hardly be judged a triumph for Tippett if that question were answered in the affirmative. On the contrary, it would be perceived as a limiting factor — perhaps the very factor that prevents Tippett from exporting overseas as successfully as his great rival and antipode, Benjamin Britten.
