Supplement Volume 14 of the New Liszt Edition contains mostly unpublished early versions of piano works from the last two decades of the composer's life. The bulk of the volume comprises pieces from Volume 3 of Années de pelerinage and the Weihnachtsbaum cycle. Of the latter, two complete early versions are extant. One of these consists of pieces which are shorter and more condensed than the final version. For performer and listener alike, it is an exciting experience to become familiar with this set of pieces in its early form. Among the individual pieces in this volume, the autograph version of the beautifully evocative Schlummerlied im Grabe is also published here for the first time. Finally, Liszt's characteristically economical attitude to composing can be studied in the original form of what can be considered as the common starting point for La lugubre gondola I and II. The latest volume of the New Liszt Edition also contains a detailed preface in German, English, and Hungarian, including new results of research, five manuscript facsimiles, and critical notes. Along with the cloth-bound Complete Edition, a paperback version for practical use has also been published. This edition's contents are identical to those of the hardcover edition, except for the omission of the critical notes.

The first volume in a series telling in depth the life stories of some great hymnwriters. The stories can easily be turned into occasional performances of hymns with interspersed readings. There are numerous quotations helpful to this end. The volume covers Thomas Ken, Reginald Heber, John Ellerton and William Walsham How. The book is full of the unexpected and makes a delightful gift. Quotations from hymns, letters and diaries, together with photographs, illustrate the text fully. This is a fascinating book, and those with a talent for dramatisation would find this an ideal starting-point for creating a play. We have come to associate a special combination of lively style and meticulous research with the writings of Bernard Braley. In this first volume on hymnwriters we are not disappointed. (The Local Preachers' Magazine) Mr Braley's biographical method is highly original - so far as I know unique - but carefully contrived to suite the nature of his subjects. His unorthodox method helps to make these men new to us, and powerfully to promote in us a sense of fellowship with them. (The Hymn Society Bulletin).

From the preface:
The aim of the publication of these four-handed piano compositions is to fill a void within the sphere of sight-reading(and almost sight-reading) at the beginner and intermediate level. These three volumes together contain 36 Nordic folk songs from Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland and theFaroe Islands. The selection is based first and foremost on their being well suited to the instrumental expressivepossibilities of the piano, and being good representatives of the rich and atmospheric Nordic musical heritage.When one practises sight-reading on one’s own it is tempting to stop as onegoes along, because the desire to playthe correct notes is often given priority at the expense of the rhythm and expression.Music without an organic pulse will leave the player with an unsatisfactory feeling of stress and failure, and thestream of thought will not form part of a natural flow. Good sight-reading training is therefore ensemble playing,where the teacher supports the pulse and rhythm.In many other publications of four-handed duets the secundo part is written in two bass clefs, and the primo part in twotreble clefs. Reading this untrained combination of clefs, along with the stressful fact that the music has never beenseen nor heard before, can confuse the pupil.In volumes 1 and 2 the secundo part, which is intended for the pupil, is therefore notated in a treble clef and bassclef, as piano music for two hands is usually notated. In volume 3 the degree of difficulty is more varied, but in mostof the pieces improvisation is an interposed element in the primo part, being therefore a good challenge for the pupil.In the improvisatory sections a chord or a scale is notated. These can form the tonal starting point, but here too thepupil is encouraged to experiment with, for example, the shift between major and minor thirds, and between the high andlow sixth and seventh.

The nine pieces in this second volume of the “Viola Recital Album†augment those appearing in volume 2 of the viola tutor. There the pieces are integrated in ascending order of difficulty, whereas the additional pieces in the “Recital Album†can be handled more freely and inserted at any point for the sake of variety.The volume contains such pieces as Carrie Williams Krogmann's “Rotkehlchens Nachtgesang†(“Robin's nocturneâ€) or Wilhelm Fitzenhagen's “Russisches Lied ohne Worte†(“Russian song without wordsâ€).Each piece is accompanied by duo version in which the teacher or an advanced learner can play the second part. There is also a piano part that can be played by the teacher or parents.All the pieces in the four “Viola Recital Albums†represent welcome additions to the already varied repertoire of Egon Sassmannhaus's viola tutor “Early Start on the Violaâ€.Kurt Sassmannshaus is the editor of many string editions in the Bärenreiter catalogue. He continues in the tradition of “Early Start on String Instruments†founded by his father, Egon Sassmannshaus. The new editions mentioned here were developed by Kurt Sassmannshaus in conjunction with his wife Melissa Lusk and his son Christoph Sassmannshaus.

This volume investigates different aspects of the creative process of Johannes Brahms. Its findings are impressively underscored by numerous high-quality illustrations; the volume is printed in four colors throughout. In the course of 15 chapters, renowned researchers present Brahms not just as a composer but also as an arranger of his own works and of those of others, and also as the dedicatee of other composers' works. Along with the sources for the musical texts, title pages and diary entries also offer a starting point for fascinating investigations into the genesis of Brahms's works. With this critique génétique, current trends in literary studies and musicology are here introduced into the world of Brahms research. An extensive index of people and topics completes this authoritative overview of Brahms studies, which has been edited by scholars from the Johannes Brahms Complete Editionin Kiel. GERMAN TEXT.

Children happily play songs which they know. Christmas carols are therefore an ideal starting point for singing and playing together.

The repertory corresponds with the popular song book Weihnachtslieder fur Kinder (Christmas songs for children, Carus 2.404). The songs are printed in a large, friendly-to-read format and include lively illustrations. Score available separately - see item CA.1850700.

About Suzuki Method
The Suzuki Method is based on the principle that all children possess ability and that this ability can be developed and enhanced through a nurturing environment. All children learn to speak their own language with relative ease and if the same natural learning process is applied in teaching other skills, these can be acquired as successfully. Suzuki referred to the process as the Mother Tongue Method and to the whole system of pedagogy as Talent Education. The important elements of the Suzuki approach to instrumental teaching include the following:an early start (aged 3-4 is normal in most countries); the importance of listening to music; learning to play before learning to read; -the involvement of the parent; a nurturing and positive learning environment; a high standard of teaching by trained teachers; the importance of producing a good sound in a balanced and natural way; core repertoire, used by Suzuki students across the world; social interaction with other children. Suzuki students from all over the world can communicate through the language of music.
