Haben sich erst genügend musizierfreudige Gleichgesinnte zusammen gefunden, kann es losgehen. Aber halt - etwas fehlt noch: die Musik! Neue Bands, deren Mitglieder nicht allzu viel Erfahrung auf ihren Instrumenten mitbringen, haben besondere Bedürfnisse. Leichte Stücke sind gefragt, die den Schwerpunkt auf das Zusammenspiel legen und schnell zum motivierenden Erfolgserlebnis der Gruppe führen: dem ersten gemeinsamen Auftritt!Begin the Band ist genau auf diese Bedürfnisse zugeschnitten. Jede Ausgabe dieser Reihe enthält vier unterhaltsame, gut klingende Bearbeitungen und Originalkompositionen in den Stilen Pop undJazz, die auch Gelegenheit zur Improvisation bieten. Zu jedem Stück gibt es eine Gesangsstimme, drei Begleitstimmen und einen Easy Part, das Ganze jeweils in C, B, Es und in C (Bass). Dazu kommen Stimmen für Gitarre und Bassgitarre (mit Akkorden), sowie für Schlagzeug und Percussion. Alle Stimmen sind beliebig für zahlreiche verschiedene Besetzungen ergänzbar - von einer Minimalbesetzung aus Gesangsstimme (auch von einem Blasinstrument spielbar) mit einer Begleitung, über eine Popband bis hin zur Jazzcombo und vielem mehr. Formare un gruppo è sempre una sfida accattivante. E’ sufficiente trovare e riunire alcuni musicisti appassionati e con gli stessi gusti e l’avventura può iniziare. D’accordo, ma cosa si suona? I gruppi formati da musicisti con una limitata esperienza strumentale, hanno bisogno di un repertorio adatto: brani semplici concentrati sull’esecuzione in gruppo e che permettano di raggiungere rapidamente l’obiettivo: esibirsi in pubblico. Begin the Band è stato concepito per soddisfare queste esigenze. Ogni raccolta di questa collezione contiene quattro superbi arrangiamenti e composizioni originali adatti all’improvvisazione. Ogni brano comporta una parte vocale, tre parti diaccompagnamento e una versione strumentale della linea melodica (versione semplificata della parte vocale), il tutto nelle tonalit Do, Sib, Mib e Do �. Sono incluse anche le parti per tastiera/chitarra basso, chitarra (con accordi), batteria e percussioni. Combinando le varie parti a scelta, otterrete un gruppo rock, un combo jazz o altre formazioni. La strumentazione minima è costituita dalla parte vocale (o versione strumentale della linea melodica) e di una parte d’accompagnamento. L’avventura può iniziare!
