Barry Tuckwell was, until his retirement, one of the world's
leading horn virtuosos and thus eminently suited to writing this
Guide. This versatile musician combines a soloists experience, an
orchestral player's inside knowledge and a conductor's broad view
of the horn and its music. He tells the fascinating story of the
taming of the horn from a loud, rough signalling instrument to one
that is mellow and emotive - described by Schumann as the soul of
the orchestra. The history of the horn we know today is closely
related to technical developments both in playing and in writing,
and with a wealth of musical examples Barry Tuckwell tells us of
these changes and the people who made them. He then deals with the
difficulties of building and maintaining this difficult instrument,
providing invaluable insights into the practicalities of the craft.
Useful advice is given on all aspects of learning, practising and
playing for the beginner, amateur and teacher. Finally the reader
is given the benefit of an inside view of the life of a
professional horn player, whether rehearsing, recording or
performing live down to so basic (and easily overlooked) a
consideration as fatigue - the players' need to spread the load -
the explanation for what often seems to the concert-goer to be one
more horn player than is necessary.
"Boland's clear, accessible text reflects years of professional
experience as a performer and teacher of the one-key flute. Her
book answers all the practical needs of beginners and offers
advanced flutists a wealth of useful information. Even players
wedded to the Boehm flute will gain fresh musical insights from
Boland's comprehensive method."--Laurence Libin, Department of
Musical Instruments, Metropolitan Museum of Art
"This is the best introduction to the one-key (baroque) flute
for Boehm system flute players available today. With her
comprehensive knowledge of the numerous historical treatises and
tutors and her extensive practical experience as a player and
teacher, Jan Boland has fashioned a guide that is at the same time
informative and enjoyable. I only wish it had been available when I
set out to learn the one-key flute. It would have saved me much
time and led me directly to the most important sources."--John
Thow, composer and Professor of Music at the University of
California, Berkeley
"An easy-to-read format, clear prose, attractive graphics, and
well chosen and very legible music make it an ideal beginner's
tutor."--Betty Bang Mather, Professor Emeritus, University of Iowa

for Tenor Tuba (Euphonium) and piano Vaughan Williams's Concerto
for Bass Tuba and Orchestra was the first major concerto to be
written for the instrument. It was composed in 1953-4 to mark the
50th anniversary of the LSO, and was premiered by the orchestra's
principal tuba player, Philip Catelinet. The original plan to
transpose it for Euphonium was not realised during the composer's
lifetime, and only now, in this transcription by David Childs, has
that goal been attained, with Vaughan Williams's orchestration
deftly transposed and rearranged by Rodney Newton to allow this
characteristic work to enter the repertoire of many more players.
Music from all three films arranged for string instruments.
Desirable and collectible, these instrumental folios are loaded
with full-color photos of scenes from all three films. They are
printed on top-quality antique paper stock, and the covers showcase
the new "trilogy" artwork. The string series was written especially
for violin, viola, and cello. Each book features a piano
accompaniment and a carefully crafted removable string part
complete with bowings, articulations, and keys well suited for the
Level 2-3 player. A fully orchestrated accompaniment CD, with demo
tracks (featuring live string performances) and play-along tracks,
completes each package. The string books are completely compatible
with each other and can be played together or as solos. Due to
level considerations, the string books are not compatible with the
books in the wind series. Titles are the twelve major themes from
the blockbuster trilogy: from The Fellowship of the Ring: The
Prophecy * In Dreams * Concerning Hobbits * Many Meetings * The
Black Rider; from The Two Towers: Gollum's Song * Rohan * Evenstar
* Forth Eorlingas; from The Return of the King: Into the West * The
Steward of Gondor * Minas Tirith.
