Super Studies is na Starter Studies en Skilful Studies het derde deel in Philip Sparke’s serie etudeboeken voor jonge blazers. Ook deze uitgave bevat interessant studiemateriaal van een hoge kwaliteit - uiteraardtoegespitst op de gevorderde blazer. Voor een verdere muzikale en speltechnische ontplooiing op weer een wat hoger niveau.

Während Philip Sparke an diesen drei Etüdenbüchern arbeitete, beriet er sich mit vielen Musiklehrern, wie man jungen Bläsern am besten neue Noten beibringt und zugleich einen Rahmen schafft, in welchen sich neue musikalische Elemente in einer logischen Reihenfolge einfügen lassen. Starter Studies für Anfänger und Skilful Studies sowie Super Studies für etwas fortgeschrittenere Bläser enthalten motivierende Etüden, mit deren Hilfe die Schüler strukturiert ihren Tonumfang erweitern und technische Fähigkeiten, wie Ansatzvariationen oder Griffe erwerben können. Die Etüden sind jeweils genau auf die technischen und musikalischen Anforderungen der einzelnenInstrumente zugeschnitten. Damit bekommen interessierte Schüler schon ab einem frühen Lernstadium optimales Übungsmaterial an die Hand, so dass sie schnell zu guten Musikern heranreifen können. Die drei Bücher können ergänzend zu jeder Instrumentalschule eingesetzt werden.

Les études de ce recueil ne comportent ni indications de tempo, ni indications de nuances.Cela permet chacun d’ajuster la vitesse en fonction de l’objectif de travail et jouer les études avec la plus grande variante d’intensité sonore possible. Que ces études soient le moteur de votre progression dans le formidable monde de la musique !

“Gli inizi dell’apprendimento musicale sono decisivi. Un buon insegnante è un elemento chiave, ma è indispensabile avere a disposizione materiale pedagogico complementare che motivi gli allievi e che allo stesso tempo offra una presentazione completadelle tecniche del suono. Starter Studies è il primo volume di questa serie di studi strumentali: una collana che offre un ambiente adeguato all’introduzione di nuovi elementi musicali. Skilful Studies è il motore indispensabile perprocedere nel mondo della musica. Per diventare un musicista completo, gli studi proposti in Super Studies si concentrano su un’esigenza particolare relativa alla specificit del vostro strumento”.

Factory Child is a protest song against child sweatshops. Written in memory of Mrs. Peterson, who loved children dearly, the piece depicts the factory life of children laboring 16+ hours a day, manufacturing the shoes and clothes that end up in American retail stores.Factory Child begins with factory sounds and an oppressive, repetitive pattern that supports the melody carried by the upper voices. The second section is composed of wistful, dream-like sounds and melodies that have traces of children’s songs that remind us that these children forced into labor would love to have the opportunity to play, attend school, and dream, but cannot and realistically have little hope for a life we consider normal.  The middle section gives way to more sounds from the factory. The climax is a raucous circus-like waltz using themes from both sections.The percussion parts can be covered by six players. Some players will need to cover two parts. Use someone from the wind section if you do not have six, as some of the parts, although important, are not very difficult. The second clarinet never goes over the break and the bass line is usually doubled in the euphonium as well as in the low reeds.This piece is an excellent way for young performers to use their musical voice to affect change. It is a great discussion starter for researching where our apparel comes from and why to stay away from some brands. It can also make students aware of the fantastic opportunity they have to attend school that children in other parts of the world do not. Young students will find this piece very thought provoking.Ed Kiefer .
