“In three books, Lucien Thévet (1914-2007), a virtuoso Horn player of his day, provides 148 pages of detailed and progressive studies and exercises for the Horn. The first volume of Méthode Complète de Cor is essential to all Horn players seeking to improve their technique on the instrument. Thévet's book focuses on elements including timbre, fingering, breathing, sound production, holding the instrument, intervals, articulation and notes values, among other musical aspects. Moreover, Méthode Complète de Cor also contains 125 exercises and suggestions on how to organise practice. Significantly, Méthode Complète de Cor first seeks to address tube-lengths, fingering combinations and tuning-slides so that when the student progresses to Horn notation, the sound is not lost. With notes in French, English, German and Spanish this Thévet book is versatile and crucial to the progress of any Horn player.â€.

If beginning players learn the twelve major scales, twelve jazz melodic minor scales, two whole tone scales and three diminished scales, they will be able to negotiate more than 95% of the chords that will be coming their way. Many corresponding scales that fit chords are simply modes of one the above scales. A major scale gives seven modes that fit seven different chords. Times that by twelve and 84 chords can be covered by simply knowing the twelve major scales. It can sound overwhelming, not to worry, after all music is about what you have to say not how many musical nick-knacks you collect. Jazz players of all eras have looked for new devices to experiment with. Students are no different. Once I have given the foundation of the above scales I let students choose a sound or device that they like. This book is a result of that teaching perspective. It is also a result of me being tired of writing out the same information year after year and serves as a compilation of many jazz improvisation and compositional techniques. Learning them all is not the goal. The book is simply a collection and includes brief explanations and drills to help utilize a new sound into a player's vocabulary. This text can be used individually or in a group of any instrument combination. A good number of the chapters are organized specifically for this.

1st complete perf: Catherine Gordeladze, The Gasteig, Munich (Winners & Masters Series), 21 April 2007 Ideal for confident young pianists keen to explore cutting-edge new music, the second book of Strides by Morgan Hayes adds five more distinctively original miniatures to the three 'fugitive visions' already published in Strides Book 1. Propulsive rhythm and melody mark out turbid expressive territory in the first two pieces, while the third Stride explores 'glacial' octaves, and the fourth and fifth add new fantasy to a Bach sarabande and a chaconne. Specific technical challenges in each piece test the reflex and stamina of players of Grade 6 standard and above, who will also enjoy the impressive virtuoso impact Strides deliver in performance.
