Although the prevailing mood of the gently flowing music is
lyrical, with an atmosphere of loving peacefulness, William Blake's
Lullaby is not without its darker undertones, and they too are
explored, with one or two bold harmonic touches.
The Recital Books congratulate students for a job well done by
providing correlated repertoire to their Lesson Books that are
based on concepts they've already learned. As a result, the pieces
are quickly mastered. Included in Recital 1B are the folk tunes
"Camptown Races" and "For He's A Jolly Good Fellow," and
imaginative originals like "The Elephant and the Flea" and "March
of the Extra-Terrestrials."
Introducing the Positions, a series widely used in classroom and
private studio, represents a critical "next step" for string
students. Position playing allows players to extend range beyond

ensemble groups. The most important positions vary for each
instrument, and Whistler wisely introduces the most-used positions
first in Volume 1, followed by the next most important in Volume 2.
An irreplaceable component for every string student's training!

Passed down in the oral tradition and sung traditionally as working
songs, sea shanties tell the human stories of life at sea: hard
graft, battling the elements, the loss of ships or pining for a
lady on shore. Its pages decorated with hand-drawn or wood-cut
illustrations from celebrated artist Jonny Hannah, Sailor Song
addresses the current modern revival of sea shanties, and seeks to
celebrate and to explore the historical, musical and social history
of the traditional sea song through 40 beautiful, mournful,
haunting and uplifting shanties. Acclaimed shanty devotee Gerry
Smyth presents the background to each one alongside musical
notation. The lyrics are elaborated with explanations of
terminology, context including historical facts and accounts of
life at sea, and the characters, both fictional and non-fictional,
that appear in the songs from the great age of sail to the last
days of square-rig. Where appropriate, a direct digital link is
made to a shanty recording in the British Library Sound Archive.
Vinyl: A History of the Analogue Record is the first in-depth study
of the vinyl record. Richard Osborne traces the evolution of the
recording format from its roots in the first sound recording
experiments to its survival in the world of digital technologies.
This book addresses the record's relationship with music: the
analogue record was shaped by, and helped to shape, the music of
the twentieth century. It also looks at the cult of vinyl records.
Why are users so passionate about this format? Why has it become
the subject of artworks and advertisements? Why are vinyl records
still being produced? This book explores its subject using a
distinctive approach: the author takes the vinyl record apart and
historicizes its construction. Each chapter explores a different
element: the groove, the disc shape, the label, vinyl itself, the
album, the single, the b-side and the 12" single, and the sleeve.
By anatomizing vinyl in this manner, the author shines new light on
its impact and appeal.
(Percussion). The most in-depth study of breakbeat drumming in
print The style is divided into thirteen essential elements, with
each element discussed in its own chapter. Hundreds of exercises
and beats give the reader ample opportunity to practice the
elements, which, when assembled, will give the drummer the ability
to integrate a complete language of incredibly funky concepts into
his or her playing. Over 90 transcriptions of beats and breaks
provide the reader with a window into hip-hop/breakbeat drumming.
Included are some of the most sampled beats in music history
including information about the original song and later songs that
used the sample. Also included is a historical overview of hip-hop
and breakbeat drumming, as well as biographies of many of the
"architects" that helped design the culture. The "Click Track
Loops" chapter provides an incredibly challenging system for
practicing the breakbeat/hip-hop elements and other grooves against
various patterns programmed into a drum machine. These will help
the reader attain new levels of tightness, precision, and groove in
their drumming. The CD features MP3 files with examples of select
exercises, beats, and eight-bar phrases from the book. It also
contains five play-along instrumental tracks (with and without
drums). There is also a bonus sample library featuring 30
individual drum/cymbal sounds. Bonus Sections include Beats With
Drops, Fills, and Dubstep.
