Playing from the Core is a new method for practicing the French horn. With an in-depth understanding of the traditions and history of French horn technique, Tommi Hyytinen brings new perspectives to instrumental practice by examining the interaction of mind and body and incorporating these insights into his method. The body is perhaps a musician's primary instrument, and it is important to become intimately acquainted with this instrument. A thorough understanding of the body makes many musical and technical challenges easier to overcome. Hyytinen also provides comprehensive advice on preparing for a performance and on overcoming stage fright. For instance, understanding the physiology of stress and performance-related nerves helps us better to understand nervousness as a natural state. By employing a range of physical and mental exercises, we learn to control nervous reactions and turn them into something that, rather than hindering, can in fact help and improve our performances. In addition to presenting a wealth of factual information and physical exercises, the book contains many informative illustrations, playing exercises, and an etude exploring different aspects of French horn technique. Through the presentation of information, exercises and examples, Playing from the Core brings students to a realisation that everyone can improve on the technical and musical challenges they face. Tommi Hyytinen is an experienced professional musician and teacher, and he instructs musicians in the holistic use of the body. The exercises presented in the book form part of his own daily practice routine and teaching material. Tommi thus manages to explain and show us the benefit of both body and mental exercises in preparation for musical performance. He shares all his wisdom so generously that I have no doubt that all performing artists, especially brass and wind players as well as singers will profit enormously from reading it.

Native Ohioan Ewazen, upon seeing the Front Range of the Colorado Rockies for the first time, was moved to compose this compact, heroic celebration of the grandeur of brass instruments, as he describes it. Premiered by the Boulder Brass (Colorado) and the Brandt Brass (Russia), Front Range Fanfare also captured the attention of a French brass ensemble, attesting to the global appeal of Ewazen's music. For advanced performers.

Capriccio is a term for a musical work that doesn’t strictly adhere to formal ‘classical’ conventions but rather follows its own ideas. The composer Pascal Proust plays about with the listener’s normal expectations in an amusing way, such as presenting a slow swing groove in the piano that is overlaid with a barcarolle-like theme in in the winds, or the colourful coming-together of straight rock and tango… A varied and effective concert piece for four ambitious musicians!Een capriccio is een muziekstuk waarin de componist zich niet strikt aan de formele ‘klassieke’ conventies houdt, maar eerder zijn eigen ideeën volgt. Pascal Proust speelt in dit stuk op een grappige manier met de verwachtingen van de luisteraar: hij presenteert bijvoorbeeld een langzame swinggroove in de piano, die in contrast staat met het barcarolleachtige thema in het blazerstrio, en combineert op kleurrijke wijze kenmerken van de tango en de rock. Een afwisselend, effectvol concertstuk voor vier ambitieuze spelers!Capric cio ist eine Bezeichnung für Kompositionen, die sich nicht streng an klassische“ Konventionen gebunden fühlen, sondern ihrer eigenen Idee folgen. Der Komponist Pascal Proust spielt hier auf launige Art mit den gängigen Hörerwartungen: Mal konfrontiert er einen langsamen Swing-Groove im Klavier mit einem barkarolenartigen Rhythmus in den Bläsern, mal schreibt er eine Musik irgendwo zwischen Tango und straighter Rock-Nummer. Ein abwechslungsreiches, effektvolles Konzertstück für vier ambitionierte Musiker!Le terme de capriccio désigne des compositions qui ne sont pas strictement liées des conventions « classiques ;» et suivent leur propre inspiration. Le compositeur Pascal Proust se joue ici avec humour des attentes habituelles de l'auditeur : tantôt il confronte le lent groove swing du piano au rythme de barcarole des vents, tantôt il écrit une musique la croisée du tango et du rock pur. Une pièce de concert efficace et variée pour quatre musiciens ambitieux !
