- Une approche originale et claire de la technique et du vocabulaire de la batterie, présentés par thèmes
Des concepts de jeux innovants
Ce livre a pour but d'aider les batteurs à développer, à préciser et à personnaliser leur jeu. Il regroupe les grandes lignes du jeu de batterie et propose des pistes de travail pour élargir votre horizon musical. Il est aussi conçu pour favoriser l'autonomie et la créativité des musiciens. Chaque chapitre explique un concept de jeu et propose des exemples, mais c'est à vous de prolonger ce travail pour créer vos propres rythmes et exercices ! Mon but est de vous aider à parler le langage de la batterie pour qu'ensuite vous puissiez vous exprimer comme vous le voulez. À tout moment de l'apprentissage, je vous encourage à inventer et à innover (les possibilités ne manquent pas !), ce qui ne dérangera en rien l'assimilation du jeu traditionnel.
La présentation par thèmes met en lumière les différentes composantes de la technique et du vocabulaire de cet instrument, du rôle d'accompagnement au solo, de la lecture à l'improvisation. J'ai voulu cette présentation pour donner à celui qui apprend la possibilité de choisir lui même ce qu'il veut travailler. Ces thèmes sont liés les uns aux autres et il est logique de les aborder de front, même s'il est bon à certains moments de n'en voir qu'un. Les thèmes les plus courants, comme la technique de caisse ou les systèmes traditionnels, sont présents sans être développés car il existe de nombreux ouvrages sur le sujet.
Les chapitres exercices pour caisse , exercices pour grosse caisse et déplacements sur les fûts proposent des gammes pour développer les capacités physiques et gestuelles des batteurs. Pour bien jouer, il faut se sentir bien sur son instrument. Il est donc indispensable de prendre en compte les aspects corporels du jeu, de s'observer et de demander conseil à un spécialiste pour trouver les bonnes postures et les gestes efficaces. (Voir la gestuelle des batteurs ).
Le répertoire de rythmes constitue un chapitre à part, qui montre la richesse des différentes cultures musicales qui utilisent la batterie. Il vous permettra d'augmenter votre vocabulaire et peut servir de boîte à idées pour créer vos parties de batterie. Le but n'est évidemment pas de savoir tout jouer, et il ne faut pas oublier que chaque style, chaque musique a une âme et qu'il ne suffit pas de maîtriser un rythme pour que ça sonne! Il s'agit de prendre conscience de cette richesse, qui nous invite tous à l'humilité en nous rappelant que ce qu'on maîtrise n'est qu'une partie modeste de ce qui existe.
J'espère que vous trouverez dans ce livre un outil efficace et convivial pour apprendre le jeu de batterie et pour y développer vos propres idées !

Commissione d by the Opus 21 ensemble, this mixed sextet is a musical realization of Chinese clay figurines of the Eastern Han (25-220 A.D.). Shapes of the enraptured storyteller, the vivid acrobat, and the moving dancers are in highly exaggerated forms and postures, in large and sweeping movements — the innocent and bold images symbolize the strength, motion, and speed, as the beauty of the crude and primitive power of humanity in its conquest of the material world.The mixed sextet The Han Figurines is a musical realization of my impression of the Chinese clay figurines of the Eastern Han (25-220 A.D.).  Have you seen the shapes of the enraptured storyteller, the vivid acrobat, and the moving dancers with long sleeves?  They are in highly exaggerated forms and postures, in large and sweeping movements — the innocent and bold images symbolize the strength, motion, and speed.  It’s the beauty of the crude and primitive power of humanity in its conquest of the material world.—Chen Yi.

DUNHU ANG FANTASIA is a fascinating 12-minute drama inspired by art from grottoes in the ancient town of Dunhuang in western China. These frescoes preserve images of music and dance scenes, including the postures and attitudes of performers, and of the musical instruments used. Zhou Long’s music begins with a mysterious introduction driven by drum-like textures, followed by a series of episodes, enhanced by captions of the artwork inspiring each section and evocations of the ancient musical instruments.Commissio ned and with fingering by Zou Xiang, Dunhuang Fantasia was composed in the fall of 2017. The music was inspired by the art of the Mogaoku grottoes in the ancient town of Dunhuang in western China. The frescoes of the Dunhuang grottos preserve a number of music and dance performance scenes, including images of the postures and attitudes of performers, and of a number of musical instrument types are used.The most popular form of music indigenous to this region is the huar, a folk-song type current among a number of nationalities. The huar is actually a kind of mountain song. Along with huar, Dunhuang pipa qupu (Dunhuang pipa notation) is also an inspiration for elements in this music.The music begins in adagio as a mysterious introduction. The drum-like rhythm patterns beating in the lowest region of the piano, with a muted-string sonority, creates an expanded space to enhance the echoes from the grottos. This is soon followed by the first main section, Cup of Happiness, featuring the huar and Dunhuang pipa melodies along with the dance rhythm. In the next section, Water Drum, the music becomes medium tempo. In the section Dialogue in Presto, the music becomes more active and contrapuntal. The section Tune: Changsha Girl is in a faster tempo as a dance scene. The Coda starts with dense rhythms, and tension is gradually intensified to reach a climax, culminating in a return of the opening section.

'Moderne Gitarrentechnik' [Modern Guitar Technique] shows how to play the instrument according to the player's personal taste, yet without any health risks. The anatomically sound approach includes the whole body, defines movements and their origin, counter-movements and postures, and addresses extensively the issue of recognizing and avoiding compensations, while taking individual physical requirements as well as the readers' aesthetic self-conception into account. Technical exercises help the player to develop the ability to play the instrument with natural means according to his preferences - and playing without pain naturally has a direct impact on the possibilities of artistic expression.

'Head Wind' is a story about movements of the air, wind, inhaling and exhaling and their relations to the sound of the flute. The work has been conceived as a duet with a fan: During the performance, the fan generates a flutter-tongue-like tremolo in the flute sound, scatters or hides sounds or even destroys them when they hit the labium of the flute. With his/her own movements on the stage, hand gestures or body postures, the player can cause effects and perform the music theatrically. However, the music has been composed independently from the use of a fan so that it is a perfectly convincing solo piece, even without the latter.

First, Oskar Gottlieb Blarr planned the organ editing of Penderecki's Agnus Dei from the Polish Requiem as a private homage to the esteemed master. Meanwhile, the piece has also been successfully performed by other organists, who proved the organ performance of the poignant Agnus Dei sustainable. As in his other organ works, Blarr followed strict criteria: the strict maintenance of intervals, postures, articulation and phrasing.

This latest work in the Master Class series presents a comprehensive, interpretive analysis and performance guide of three major works for solo marimba by San Francisco Symphony Principal Percussionist Jack Van Geem. Van Geem's well-thought-out approach to learning Velocities by Joseph Schwantner helps solve many of the difficult 4-mallet technical issues of this most notable composition for solo marimba. His extensive theoretical analysis of Three Small Adventures by Gunther Schuller aids in a greater musical approach to this and other contemporary works for marimba. Van Geem provides his personal edition including dynamics, phrasing, and articulations to J. S. Bach's Fuga in G minor. Van Geem outlines his philosophy of solo marimba technique and how mallet position increases a player's accuracy and provides an important aid in memorization. This in-depth publication covers topics such as sticking options, beating spots, hand & arm postures, memorization, practicing, learning the art of triaging, and more.
