of the young child is a key component of the Writing Book A.

melodic patterns. The multi-cultural friends present improvisation

This book explores the history of keyboard instruments from their
fourteenth-century origins to the development of the modern piano.
It reveals the principles of their design and describes structural
and mechanical developments through the medieval and renaissance
periods and eighteenth- and nineteenth-centuries, as well as the
early music revival. Stewart Pollens identifies and describes the
types of keyboard instruments played by major composers and
virtuosi through the ages and provides the reader with detailed
instructions on their regulating, stringing, tuning and voicing
drawn from historical sources.
(Faber Piano Adventures ). Book C of the Fabers' young beginner
method continues the staff-reading adventure with the introduction
of skips (3rds). Students first explore skips aurally and
kinesthetically across the full range of the keyboard. A delightful
variety of songs follow which carefully and comfortably guide the
child toward line-line and space-space staff recognition. The new
CD for Book C offers a unique listening experience with outstanding
orchestrations and vocals. The recordings demonstrate a key
principle of the course: when children listen, sing, tap, and move
to their piano music, they play more musically.
Compositional Process in Elliott Carter's String Quartets is an
interdisciplinary study examining the evolution and compositional
process in Elliott Carter's five string quartets. Offering a
systematic and logical way of unpacking concepts and processes in
these quartets that would otherwise remain opaque, the book's
narrative reveals new aspects of understanding these works and
draws novel conclusions on their collective meaning and Carter's
place as the leading American modernist. Each of Carter's five
string quartets is driven by a new idea that Carter was exploring
during a particular period, which allows for each quartet to be
examined under a unique lens and a deeper understanding of his
oeuvre at large. Drawing on key ideas from a variety of subjects
including performance studies, philosophy, music cognition, musical
meaning and semantics, literary criticism, and critical theory,
this is an informative volume for scholars and researchers in the
areas of music theory and musicology. Analyses are supplemented
with sketch study, correspondence, text manuscripts, and other
archival sources from the Paul Sacher Stiftung, the Library of
Congress, and the New York Public Library.
