Par VERVE THE. While Oasis and Blur battled for superficial chart supremacy at the height of the 'Britpop' phenomenon, Richard Ashcroft and The Verve set about creating some of the most poignant and touchingly personal songs of the decade. The Drugs Don't Work , Lucky Man and many others became anthems for a disillusioned generation, and paved the way for the likes of Coldplay, Snow Patrol and Athlete with songs that bridge the gap between introspective ballad and dynamic stadium rock. This book and CD set contains eight songs specially selected from The Verve's biggest hits, with full tablature transcriptions and a set of professionally-produced backing tracks that allow you to take the place of Nick McCabe. Both lead and rhythm parts are provided where appropriate - all you have to do is learn the songs and jam along with the CD! You'll even find a full biography and discography charting the band's career, and a guide to the McCabe's equipment and effects with hints to help you achieve an authentic Verve sound. / Niveau : Elémentaire / Tablatures / Guitare Tablatures

Arrangeur: Teil Buck. This volume consists of six rags composed by Scott Joplin, arranged for oboe, clarinet and bassoon (trio d'anches) by Teil Buck. The Maple Leaf Rag was first published in 1899 and as a result of its popularity, Joplin was from then on referred to as the 'King of Ragtime.' The Palm Leaf Rag was composed in 1903 while Joplin lived in St. Louis, Missouri and was composed at the same time as his first opera, 'A Guest of Honor,' which was subsequently lost. The Swipesy Cakewalk was composed in 1900 by Scott Joplin along with his composition student Arthur Marshall, whose family he lived with during the late 1890s. The title of The Easy Winners comes from the same sporting expression in which an athlete wins an event without difficulty, and the original cover depicted scenes of baseball, football, horse racing and sailing. The Favorite was composed in 1904, and although not much is known about it, its publication came around the same time as three other famous rags, 'Cascades,' 'The Sycamore,' and 'The Chrysanthemum.' The last piece in the collection, The Entertainer, is one of the most recognizable pieces of music ever written. It was orchestrated and used as the theme music for the 1973 Oscar-winning film 'The Sting,' which heightened its popularity even further./ Répertoire / 3 Hautbois

Level 4 Book/CD Pack-Physical training and discipline are needed for both athletics and keyboard playing. Keyboard muscle conditioning is called technic. Technic exercises are as important to the keyboard player as workouts and calisthenics are to the athlete. Schaum's Fingerpower books are dedicated to development of individual finger strenth and dexterity in both hands.

Arr. Philip Sparke. Par HENRY VIII. The English king, Henry VIII (1491-1547), is mainly remembered for disposing of his wives on a regular basis and breaking with the Catholic Church when the Pope Clement VII refused to grant him a divorce so he could marry Anne Boleyn. As a young man he was a gifted athlete, dancer and composer, writing many songs, poems and consort pieces (though not Greensleeves, as is often believed). Pastime with Good Company is undoubtedly the best-known of these, written in the first years of the 16th century while he was still a handsome prince, newly married to Catherine of Aragon and the envy of Europe. The lyrics tell of the joys of hunting, dancing and singing and would have been sungas part of the court entertainment. This arrangement features a quartet of soloists and two solo drummers. / Niveau : 3 / Répertoire / Fanfare

Level: easy / advanced Format: English / French / German Embouchure building Studies Elementary Intermediate Advanced High register training In the 17th century there were no studies in the modern sense of the word. Of J. S. Bach, however, we know that he wrote pieces of a study nature for his pupils, indeed he made them spend months, and in his own words preferably years, practising exercises for touch at the keyboard, that is, daily finger exercises, on the principle: There is little point in getting fit if you do nothing to stay fit. From this point of view, relating it to our instrument and to the lips, you ought to look at the following embouchure-building studies. They are not intended as warm-ups, although that term is quite appropriate for some of these exercises. Taken together they serve to build the muscles, rather like an athlete's training. Like him, we too must increase our capacity gradually. The muscles and organs involved adapt to the greater workload, but only if the increase proceeds systematically and rationally. Try to complete the full distance of each study, gradually reducing the time, like a long-distance runner. Adding one exercise, or at most three, according to the difficulty, to your daily workload will be enough. You should only start further exercises when you have fully mastered the preceding ones according to the directions in my embouchure method and have reached a satisfactory standard in rhythm and sound. The deliberately simple fingerings make it easier to check the actions of the diaphragm, the lips, and the tongue inside the mouth cavity. Form a mental picture of their movements and compare yourself constantly to an artist whose principle is: There are no secrets, at best some small tricks, which can be learned.

London 2012 Olympic Children's Anthem-Commissioned for the 2012 London Olympics this work is primarily wordless apart from the short Latin phrase “Gloria in Londinium invictus invicta” to symbolize the coming together of athletes and artists fromaround the world. The effect with innocent young voices is enchanting!

Par BUCKLEY ROBERT. An Olympic Celebration (“Une célébration olympique”) salue la recherche de l’excellence et le triomphe de l’esprit humain. Cette oeuvre de commande a été composée pour le West Vancouver Youth Band à l’occasion de la désignation de Vancouver, ville hôte des Jeux Olympiques d’hiver en 2010. La fanfare d’ouverture aux accents festifs est structurée en intervalles de quintes à vide qui évoluent en mouvement contraire. Les athlètes arrivent dans le stade. Le défilé des délégations se déroule sous une musique intitulée Parade of the athletes (La parade des athlètes). Un thème héroïque, joué par les cors et les bois, chemine de pupitre en pupitre et mène à un passagede transition (solo de saxophone alto & de hautbois) qui annonce une rétrospective. Nous sommes captivés par la l’état d’esprit des athlètes. Nous découvrons les luttes intérieures et physiques sans nombre auxquelles ils ont dû faire face pour atteindre leur objectif : une place aux Jeux. La mélodie, expressive et pleine de sensibilité, est animé d’un souffle épique. Elle change de caractère au gré de la trame et se fond dans l’exposition d’un thème illustrant le défi qui attend les athlètes. Ce thème est introduit par les cors et les trombones puis repris par divers pupitres de la formation. Le matériel thématique de la rétrospective est réexposé de manière triomphale, annonçant la fanfare finale qui célèbre avec ferveur l’esprit olympique. / Niveau : 4 / Pièce de concert / Date parution : 1905-06-29/ Répertoire / Concert Band ou Harmonie
