Par NEUMANN EVA-MARIA. Every year, an important question never fails to arise during violin lessons: can beginners already take part in the performance of Christmas carols' Now the answer is: Yes, they can! ' thanks to the 35 pieces in 'Weihnacht voller Lichterglanz' (The Bright Lights of Christmas). Eva-Maria Neumann, the author of the well-known 'Geigenschule' (Violin Method) has arranged not only popular German carols, but also pieces from the Nordic countries, Russia, France, Spain and South America as well, and included free arrangements of instrumental Christmas music (Manfredini, Corelli, Haydn) in her collection. The book is arranged according to types of fingering in the first two parts. Sixteen carols are particularly well-suited to beginners who have only just begun learning their instrument. Their accompanying part is to be played only on open strings. Furthermore, all pieces have at least one part in the first position. Thus all violinists can contribute to a memorable Christmas of shared music-making./ Méthode / 2 ou 3 Violons

Ferdinand Küchler is regarded as one of the great violin teachers of the 20th century, due, in large part, to his popular violin method. His Concertino remains a popular entry-level piece for students to this day.The piece is characterized by simplicity, clarity and beauty. The themes and melodies are easily identifiable by children, yet never trite and plain. They are catchy and perfectly reflect Küchler's educational ideology - 'to always separate the difficulties and never demand that the pupil overcome two difficulties at once?. The work is also available in an arrangement for solo violin with string quartet accompaniment (with double-bass ad lib.)(Schott, SE 1002). The viola part can be replaced by a third violin if necessary. By using the parts for multiple players, this can also be performed by a beginner string orchestra.This edition is part of the new Schott Student Edition series which offers varied literature at five different levels of difficulty, from 1 (easy) to 5 (difficult), for instrumental lessons:In print or electronic formatAvailable as printed editions or PDF downloadPractising - efficiently and with pleasure:Accompanying tracks of the pieces available as downloads / Violon Et Piano

Leichte Vortragsstucke. To every pupil, the first concert is a special experience. The period of intensive preparation, the mixture of trepidation and joyful anticipation, the concentration during the performance, the applause of the audience and the pride after the successful performance. Such impressions will all stick in the pupil's mind and quite often influence his or her entire future development. The choice of the 'right' performance piece is of vital importance: It should be neither too long nor too short, make a strong impression and give great pleasure in practising.
The edition My First Concert includes 25 easy and appealing pieces for descant recorder and piano ranging across five centuries; most of these are original recorder pieces, along with a few arrangements. The collection includes not only Renaissance, Baroque and early Classical works, but more recent compositions too, notably various genres from the field of popular music. Pieces range from little dance movements first published by Attaingnant and Susato, with sonata movements by Telemann and Loeillet through to jazzy tunes.
Some of these easy pieces will suit players who have had two years of tuition. Slightly more demanding pieces can then be tackled in later lessons. This book offers a wide selection of repertoire for auditions, concert performances and youth music competitions; it offers an ideal complement to any recorder tutorial method.
The accompanying CD will give an impression of how the music can sound, making it easier to start practice. With the separately recorded piano accompaniment, pieces can be played even when no pianist is available./ Recueil / Flûte à Bec et Piano
