Scored in a light and lively Classical style, familiar excerpts from Mozart's A Little Night Music, The Marriage of Figaro, and The Magic Flute, cleverly and subtly intertwine with the time-honored Mother Goose melodies, Jack and Jill, Three Blind Mice, and Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star. Teaching opportunities include light tonguing and dynamic contrasts in this charismatic work. The challenge for the listener is to discover where Mozart begins and Mutter Gans takes over. Hint: It's not as easy as you might think. Delightful! (2:45) This title available in MakeMusic Cloud.

The volumes in this new series contain duos, trios and quartets, their degree of difficulty ranging from easy through intermediate to advanced. Every piece is a transcription or an arrangement, since in editing the volumes our primary concern was to provide a collection of valuable and interesting compositions, as freely variable as possible as regards instrumentation, for music school students and also for adults who make music for their own pleasure. The range and pitch of the parts enable the works to be performed on any required or possible combination of the given instruments. The Easy trios volume in the Ad libitum series offers a rich variety of simple three-part settingsfor beginners on their instruments. This volume contains not only the simplest of folk song arrangements and transcriptions of Renaissance and early Baroque vocal pieces but also easily performable excerpts from works by great composers such as J. S. Bach, G. F. Händel and J. Haydn. Here you can find well-known favourites too (Mozart's Terzetto from The Magic Flute Beethoven's Ode to Joy). One special item is a little-known version of a popular children's song arranged by Mozart too ('Ah, vous dirai-je, maman'), in an arrangement by one of Bach's sons, J. Ch. Fr. Bach. Die Bände der neuen Serie beinhalten leichte, mittelschwere oder fortgeschrittene Duos, Trios und Quartette. Bei der Zusammenstellung lag das Hauptaugenmerk auf der höchstmöglichen Freiheit in der Kombinierbarkeit der Instrumente sowie darauf, dass die Kompositionen für Musikschüler und Hobbymusiker musikalisch interessant und wertvoll sind. Aus diesem Grund handelt es sich bei allen Stücken um Transkriptionen. Lage und Tonumfang der Stimmen sind so gesetzt, dass sich die Werke allen denkbaren Umständen und Ansprüchen anpassen und entsprechend in jeder Kombination der angegebenen Musikinstrumente vorgetragen werden können.
