and Teaching Activities. Par BARDEN CHRISTINE H. / KOWALCHYK GAYLE / LANCASTER . The Rhythm Ensembles and Teaching Activities Book is designed for teachers of Music for Little Mozarts. It includes eight rhythm ensembles featuring pieces accompanied by one or two rhythm instruments. By studying these ensembles, students learn to identify rhythm patterns. Teaching activities focus on three areas---rhythm, reading, and intervals. The teaching activities use a 'listen and copy' technique during which the teacher sings, chants, or claps, and the student responds by echoing the teacher. Includes reproducible student pages. / Niveau : 1-4 / Etudes et exercices / Etude / Piano

Instrumentation: Vln—Pf Editor: Cliff Eisen Format: Sheet Music Details: This projected complete edition of the MozartSonatas for Keyboard and Violin has been researched and prepared by Cliff Eisen, one of the most distinguished Mozart scholars of our time. Professor Eisen recognises that many of the apparent inconsistencies and idiosyncrasies of Mozart's notation are perfectly deliberate, and that the attempts in many other editions to impose uniformity upon similar phrases or musical paragraphs can be misguided. As he writes in the preface: '…the notion that the classical style represents a model of symmetry, balanceand clarity is for the most part a 19th-century fiction…it has little to do withMozart's actual practice, which is based primarily on variety of both content and articulation. So in this new edition, alternative readings found in parallel passages are preserved, rather than being sterilised by a spurious quest for conformity. Naturally all such instances are noted within the Critical Commentary. The highly individual beaming within Mozart's autographs is also respected in the new edition, as this often contributes to our aural perceptions of phrase structure and accent. Professor Eisen is conscious that there is no single 'Urtext' for this music. On the contrary he believes that 'there is compelling evidence that Mozart's later performances of his works were characterised by changes – sometimes substantial changes – in the musical text'. It is the achievement of this edition to indicate how far this freedom of musical expression can extend, andas such it is likely to take pride of place in the collections of all those involved in the study and performance of these masterpieces.
