A Polyrhythmic Journey In 6/8 Time. Par DWORSKY ALAN. In The Joy of Six, Dworsky adapts African and Afro-Cuban polyrhythms to the keyboard in a world-beat classical style. At the heart of the book are four beautiful solo pieces designed to teach different rhythms. Each piece is covered in a separate lesson, where it\'s broken down into bite-sized patterns that start easy and gradually get more difficult, designed to lead you step-by-step into the magical world of 6/8 time. As you work through the patterns, Dworsky will be with you every step of the way, anticipating your questions and pointing out whatever will make your journey easier. His clear writing makes rhythmic concepts easily understandable, while his conversational tone creates the feel of private lessons. And the CD that comes with the book contains a recording of every pattern and piece, making The Joy of Six a complete self-instruction package. / Niveau : Intermédiaire à Avancé / World Music - Methods / Méthode / Piano

Score and Parts.Commissioned by the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Centre. First performance 19 May 1998 Merkin Concert Hall New York City.Quoting Weir: 'In my previous work I have often enjoyed inventing titles whichattempt to encapsulate the particular world of each composition but this fifteen minutes piece for violin cello and piano is simply entitled Piano Trio . What is the reason for this unusually abstract description? I thinkperhaps that in this piece the many external impressions which habitually make up my musical world have become too numerous and too personal to be pinned down in the space of few words that a composition title allows.The firstmovement began in my mind with impressions of Venice as relayed in Schubert's song Gondelfahrer; the crisp midnight air the dark choppy water the bells tolling the gondolier alone in emotional turmoil. Schubert's world is aplace where I can find constant inspiration and strength.The second movement recalls a time when I was called from a phone box in Africa. At one moment I was alone in my room the next (or so it seemed in my imagination)surrounded by light heat and sudden energy and activity. The movement is not however an evocation of African music; it takes the form of a scherzo and trio which collide with each other at the movement's conclusion.Thethird movement formed in my mind whilst I was reading some Gaelic poetry from the Hebridean island of Lewis on Scotland 's far flung Atlantic fringe. I was thinking of the bleached white beaches in that part of the world whereevery object lying on the sand - a washed-up bottle or a bird's skeleton - is a major event in a deserted landscape. The same might be said of this short set of musical variations where melodic fragments are laid out with plentyof space around them clear and plain for everyone to hear.

Volume 5-This is the last and most advanced volume of the graduated series which includes works by composers of African descent that are hard to find or have never been published. This volume is for advanced performers and is a wonderful source of new and unusual repertoire.

Kevin Volans' L'Africaine for Piano solo. Duration: 22 minutes. Composers Note: Most of the piano music I have written has focussed on a number of 20th century musical concerns: withcomplex rhythmic patterning a- and poly-tonality multiple layering of parts on occasion introducing different tone colours (like playing inside the instrument or electronic modulation) ' but above all resonance. The development of the piano in 19th century with its increased size pitch and dynamic range led above all to an instrument capable of rich and full resonance that could rival even an orchestra. All centred around thepedal ' in Anton Rubinstein's words: The soul of the piano. This time I thought it would be interesting to write a piece which pays no attention to this tradition; to write a piece from the point of view ofsome African compositional methods and ways of patterning ' mainly interlocking parts which result in shifting downbeats. For a large part of the piece I treat the left and right hands as two complementaryperformers.  So hardly any pedal no concerns with contemporary harmony style structure or technology. I did slip in a slightly concealed reference to Debussy's L'Isle Joyeuse however. The pieceis roughly 22 minutes long in three sections and the title is a slightly tongue-in-cheek reference to Couperin.
