Basson Et Piano - Lm010-French composer and student of Darius Milhaud Pierre-Max Dubois was born on March 1st 1930. Although not as popular as his teacher he was well respected and continued the musical ideas of Les Six of which Milhaud was of course a member into the second half of the twentieth century even winning the Prix de Rome in 1955. Dubois' music is a lot like that of Milhauds light hearted harmonic melodical and texturally unusual.

For Acoustic Guitar-During the course of my teaching piano and guitar I have not come across another book that took these classic masterpieces and arranged them for the beginner guitar student. There is an amazing amount of literature like this forthe piano but not for the guitar. My goal with this book is to fill this void in the guitar literature. I chose compositions that the young guitar student would most likely have heard before and thus used familiar melodies. Ithen made easy arrangements of them mostly using the top four strings simple chords and fingerings. The right hand fingering is not indicated because I used the general rule of thumb: a = 1st string m = 2nd string i = 3rdstring p = 4th 5th and 6th strings.” All 12 solos are scored in notation and tablature.
