What does freedom sound like in the context of traditional Japanese
theater? Where is the space for innovation, and where can this kind
of innovation be located in the rigid instrumentation of the Noh
drama? In Piercing the Structure of Tradition, Mariko Anno
investigates flute performance as a space to explore the
relationship between tradition and innovation. This first
English-language monograph traces the characteristics of the Noh
flute (nohkan), its music, and transmission methods and considers
the instrument's potential for development in the modern world.
Anno examines the musical structure and nohkan melodic patterns of
five traditional Noh plays and assesses the degree to which Isso
School nohkan players maintain to this day the continuity of their
musical traditions in three contemporary Noh plays influenced by
Yeats. Her ethnographic approach draws on interviews with
performers and case studies, as well as her personal reflection as
a nohkan performer and disciple under the tutelage of Noh masters.
She argues that traditions of musical style and usage remain
influential in shaping contemporary Noh composition and performance
practice, and the existing freedom within fixed patterns can be
understood through a firm foundation in Noh tradition.

The Cambridge Clarinet Tutor is a comprehensive and stimulating
introduction to clarinet playing. Through the sixteen progressive
stages the beginner will develop the technical skills and
musicianship necessary to establish a love and understanding of the
clarinet and its music. Each stage comprises thorough technical
exercises, scales and arpeggios where relevant, a study, duets for
pupil and teacher, a piece with piano accompaniment and a work
introducing the player to the more traditional repertoire. The
studies and pieces composed by Paul Harris for the tutor are the
result of many years' teaching experience, and will add
significantly to the music available for the early stages of
clarinet playing. The colourful melodies, rhythms and harmonies
combine to make valuable teaching material and, from the beginning,
excite the musical imagination of the pupil.
