Après avoir écrit ?Points d'orientation? (pour xylophone, multi- percussions et piano fin de cycle 1), ?Lock- it? (Concerto pour vibraphone, marimba, timbales et batterie) propose un tour d'horizon des bases instrumentales et musicales demandées en fin de cycle 2. La batterie est utilisée comme dans une une formation de jazz avec des patterns d'accompagnement mais aussi un grand solo écrit. Les timbales mélodiques solliciteront l'interprète sur la justesse dans le pédalage. L'introduction au vibraphone propose une mélodie très simple qui requiert beaucoup de phrasé et de maîtrise dans l'utilisation de la pédale. Enfin, le marimba fera appel à l'indépendance des 4 baguettes dans un ragtime qui va s'enflammer pour finir en variations à 2 baguettes. En résumé, ?Lock it? propose aux percussionnistes d'exprimer leur dextérité, leur musicalité mais surtout leur ?Groove? / Percussion Et Piano

Partition matériel. Par HUREL PHILIPPE. Après avoir écrit plusieurs longues pièces pour des effectifs variés, je me tourne pour la seconde fois vers la miniature. Je profite aussi de ce retour vers une certaine forme de simplicité apparente pour mettre en avant les instruments aux hauteurs indéfinies (temple blocs, tambour de bois, métaux divers sans hauteur fixe, peaux, objets percussifs variés...) alors que mon travail pour la percussion était jusqu'à présent orienté vers les claviers. Les trois miniatures qui composent ce trio revêtent un caractère hiératique dicté par des événements personnels récents et par l'intérêt grandissant que je porte, à plus de soixante ans, au domaine du sacré.

Trois Rivieres by Kaija Saariaho was Commissioned by the French Government and Musica Strasbourg.As the title suggests Trois rivières is divided into three separate sections. The first part introduces allthe instrumental colours used in the piece. The rhythmic aspect is here nearly eliminated giving room for the timbral scales colours resonances attacks and textures to come to the fore. The instruments come from all members ofthe percussion family but unpitched instruments are given a primary role.The second part adds a rhythmic aspect to the nuances of colour and texture as an ostinato is developed in markedly varying directions.Thelast part is an epilogue recalling components of the two preceding parts. Here earlier aspects of the material are reorganised and placed in different relationships to each other.The voices of the percussionists acttogether as an extension of the instruments being used to create either rhythmically free textures or strictly notated rhythms. They are treated instrumentally combining to create rhythms and timbres. The poem 'La nuit de lunesur le fleuve' (Moonlit night on the river) by the Chinese poet Li Po (701-762) constitutes the material for the voices which are amplified and further enhanced throughout.

Organ and percussion one of the most exotic instrumental combinations in modern music invariably produce delightful sonic effects and contrasts. This also applies to Zsigmond Szathmáry's Sense of Rhythm where this renowned concert organist and performer of contemporary organ music explores the duo format as a vehicle for conversation conflict and reconciliation in a rich array of shades and hues.The lavishly scored percussion part (vibraphone glockenspiel woodblocks cymbals tam-tam tom-toms bass drum Chinese opera gongs and much else) ensures a great variety of colours perfectly suited to the harmonic capacities of the organ. Both instrumental partsclearly reveal the composer's fondness for sophisticated rhythms and varied proportions.Once again Szathmáry uses the organova series to present contemporary music at a high level that places demands on performers and listeners alike while employing a musical idiom and energy that never fail to achieve their effect.Lavishly scored percussion partRhythmic energetic effective: contemporary music at a high level

Four solo roles and several separate chorus groups give scope for the participation of a large number of children of all ability levels.The story is a humorous version of the Orkney folk-tale of an islander kidnapping a Selkie wife - a creature who is a seal in the sea and a woman on the land. Things go hilariously wrong with the Selkie wife escaping to rejoin her companions in the sea and Mansie the islander facing a most uncongenial alliance with his cousin and housekeeper Miss Trowie-Tattibogle.Unpitched percussionpart.This is a special item which is made to order.
