Trev or Webb and Nicholas Drewe. A series of books giving practical projects for use in preparation of the GCSE examinations in music. All the books are grounded on the three major principles of the GCSE syllabuses: listening, composing and performing. They may be used either as a complete series or independently. In the early stages the emphasis is on active participation, the subject matter is diverse, allowing scope for the teacher to introduce a broad range of musical topics. The listening and composing elements gain a greater importance within the series as it progresses, although there is always integration between them. Books 1 And 2 contain a variety of projects on rhythm, scales, tunes, chords, writing a pop song, composing with electronic and conventional instruments and composing with voices amongst many other ideas. Books 3 And 4 offer 22 different listening exercises which are based on the works of a wide range of composers including Bach, Handel, Elgar, Britten, Joplin, McCartney and Lloyd Webber. Each piece is presented in the form of a skeleton score and questions are set to develop the pupil's aural perception and musical literacy. The music cassette which accompanies these two books includes recordings of many of the works.

List ening, composing and performing are the foundation of Projects, Patric Standford's exciting composition manual that meets the varied demands of 'A-level' and undergraduate courses. Former head of Composition at Bretton College of Higher Education, respected composer and tireless advocate of new music, Standford begins unashamedly with melody. Through a study of historical examples, students quickly learn to write their own, then master rhythm, harmony and the construction of canons before creating original pieces for melody instruments, keyboard, and percussion ensemble. With a wealth of illustrations and full of good sense, Standford's practical text ensures a constant helping hand for the young composer, showing how music of the past and present, carefully observed, can unlock the novice's imagination. Beautifully produced, Projects combines a sound respect for the fundamentals of music-making with the one element essential for its success - enjoyment.

An all-round vision of music at work in the classroom. Exploring Sound is essential reading for anyone involved with pupils in the first three Key Stages of the National Curriculum.

Full of ideas and initiatives from the very first page, June Boyce-Tillman's classic project book for practical classroom activities is written with unique insight and sympathy for the non-specialists who find themselves in any situation involving teaching music to children aged between seven and fourteen. Throughout, technical language is kept to a minimum, with as much emphasis on the way that music is taught as on the actual music itself.

The Family Folk Song Project is a brilliantly simple general music activity that bridges musical experiences at home with those at school, for the benefit of all. This book includes complete instructions for The Family Folk Song Project, a class activity where every child learns a folk song from a family member and then teaches it to his or her classmates. Writes author Cathy Ward: The Family Folk Song Project has encouraged my students to sing with their families and learn about their cultural heritage. It has helped my students feel connected to music class, and I have noticed a remarkable improvement in behavior and engagement for many students after completing this project. I have collected songs in more than ten languages that are relevant to the community where I teach, and I have been able to use these songs in my classroom. This book also includes a letter to send home to parents, in both English and Spanish. It includes examples of folk songs that Ward has collected through this activity, along with ideas about using this activity to teach musical concepts to children. As music teachers, we need to provide simple, concrete opportunities for families to experience the joy of sharing music together so musical traditions can be passed on to future generations. The Family Folk Song Project is a wonderful way to accomplish this goal and help children experience lifelong connections through music. Cathy Ward teaches elementary general music in Somerville, Massachusetts.

Zigmund Schul, who was born in Chemnitz in 1916 and died in the Theresienstadt ghetto in 1944, is one of the artists neglected in efforts to explore the music of the so-called 'Theresienstadt composers'. In collaboration with the Terezín Music Memorial Project in Tel Aviv and the memorial site Yad Vashem, Bote & Bock is publishing, in no particular order, amongst the works of other composers, the complete works of Schul, who was a pupil of Hindemith and Hába. These works include chamber music for strings, vocal and choir works as well as a fugue for piano. The 'Duo', written in 1943, is one of Schul's most extensive surviving works and is one of the most important works ever written for this duo formation – it is an invaluable addition to the repertoire.

In 2014, I enjoyed a wonderful residence at the Ucross Foundation in Clearmont,
Wyoming. Ucross is an artist colony that gives writers, composers, and visual artists the
gift of time, space, and support to follow their artistic pursuits; we are provided with
studio space, housing, and meals so that we can work continuously on our projects. I have
been in residence at numerous artist colonies; however, nothing in my previous
experiences prepared me for living in such isolated, wild country. Ucross is situated on a
20,000-acre cattle ranch at nearly 4,000 feet in elevation with fewer than 150 people
living within the town. But what Clearmont lacks in population, it makes up for
abundantly and spectacularly in wilderness and wildlife. I composed the sextet Postcards
from Wyoming to offer three glimpses of what I found to be the most striking aspects of
my residence. The Solitude of Stars, the third and final movement of the original sextet,
was inspired by the stunning nightly display of the heavens above. Without city lights
dimming the night sky, countless stars shone brightly over the vast expanse of the prairie.
This edition is part of The Solitude of Stars Project that I undertook during the 2020
COVID-19 pandemic, which consists of a series of arrangements that I made for
colleagues and friends.
