Monkeys followed up their first two phenomenally successful albums

Time Pieces is an exciting new series of repertoire which explores
the wealth of music written from the sixteenth century to the
present day. The pieces are presented chronologically within each
volume and all include the year in which they were written too so
you can map your journey through time. Time Pieces for Cello is a
three-volume anthology providing a graded selection of well-crafted
and idiomatic arrangements, as well as some original pieces, for
cello and piano. All of them have been carefully written to provide
practice of the keys, note ranges and fingering patterns
encountered in the early grades, and there are suggestions for
position work and varied bowing patterns. Each volume balances
well-known pieces with less familiar music, and the emphasis
throughout is on tuneful repertoire perfectly suited to the cello
with a simple supportive piano accompaniment. From Tallis to
Tchaikovsky and from Haydn to Britten, Time Pieces for Cello allows
the pupil to get a real feel for the different styles of music
through time and will prove an invaluable, varied source of further
study and recital repertoire.
The Companion is an essential, interdisciplinary tool for those
both familiar and unfamiliar with Wagner's Ring. It opens with a
concise introduction to both the composer and the Ring, introducing
Wagner as a cultural figure, and giving a comprehensive overview of
the work. Subsequent chapters, written by leading Wagner experts,
focus on musical topics such as 'leitmotif', and structure, and
provide a comprehensive set of character portraits, including
leading players like Wotan, Brunnhilde, and Siegfried. Further
chapters look to the mythological background of the work and the
idea of the Bayreuth Festival, as well as critical reception of the
Ring, its relationship to Nazism, and its impact on literature and
popular culture, in turn offering new approaches to interpretation
including gender, race and environmentalism. The volume ends with a
history of notable stage productions from the world premiere in
1876 to the most recent stagings in Bayreuth and elsewhere.
