Carse, Adam: Fiddle Fancies for Cello and Piano Ref: H437

Solo Gold & Platinum - Until further notice

Cello part and Piano part

The seven pieces for cello in this collection are of a slightly more challenging level of difficulty than those of Fiddler's Nursery, which, like Fiddle Fancies, have been transposed and edited for young cellists by noted teacher Wendy Max. As ever, Carse fits the solo and accompaniment together to make a complete musical picture, testing both the player's technical skills and imaginative gifts. The seven pieces encompass a variety of moods and styles, ranging from the tranquillity of 'Sweet Sorrow', 'Bluebell Chimes' and 'Sadness' to the exuberance of 'Swinging', 'Hopping Dance', 'Waltz Steps' and the ever-popular 'Frog Dance'.

Price: £5.75

Carse, Adam: Fiddler's Nursery for Cello and Piano Ref: H434

Solo Bronze, Silver & Gold - Until further notice

Cello part and Piano part

A favourite with violinists for nearly 80 years, The Fiddler's Nursery is now available for cellists as well. Wendy Max, one of Britain's most highly respected specialist teachers of young players, has edited the transposed solo part with bowings and fingerings to reflect contemporary approaches to early-stage learning for the instrument, but leaving the music unaltered. No less suited to the cello than to the violin, the results offer ideal material for individual or group tuition of players at pre-grade 1 and elementary level.

Solo Silver, Gold & Planinum - Until further notice

Standard: Elementary to Intermediate

The publication of Top Brass marks the end of dull practice routines divorced from the spirit of real music. Each of Deborah Calland's 25 progressive studies for treble clef brass instruments is a strong character piece in a compelling jazz, blues or contemporary classical style, with attractive titles to focus the minds of young students. 'Jacob's Ladder' and 'Upwardly Mobile' test proficiency in scales. 'Keep Mum' and 'Blowing Blue' are studies in legato. 'Tongue-Twister' is self-explanatory. Designed to take beginners through to the standard required for Grade 5 examinations, Top Brass will be welcomed by all instrumental teachers who wish to sweeten the pill of effective technical training with a dash of musical adventure.
