32 Rose Etudes for Clarinet


Book Description

Beloved for his 32 Rose Etudes for Clarinet book, C. Rose -- full name Chrysogone Cyrille Rose was an important French clarinetist, and served as principal clarinet at the Paris Opera. He was a teacher and composer of pedagogical material for the clarinet, much of which (like this 32 Etudes) is still widely in use today. Cyrille Rose was taught by Hyacinthe Klosé. He studied under Klosé at the Paris Conservatoire, winning the First Prize in 1847. He taught many famous clarinet players, such as: Louis Cahuzac, Paul Jean, Manuel Gomez, Francisco Gomez, Henri Lefèbvre, Henri Paradis, Henri Selmer, and Alexandre Selmer.




Easy Clarinet Duets Below the Break


Book Description

Easy Clarinet Duets Below the Break is a collection of 10 duets which I have written especially for young students who have not yet ventured over the break. This collection would be very useful for teachers who are looking for something fun to do at the end of a lesson, and they could be performed at an end of term concert or a school assembly. As a teacher, I found that there were very few clarinet duet books that didn't get too difficult too quickly, and the ones that were easy were just a bit boring for the students. This collection aims to fill that niche and there is something for everyone in there, without being difficult or overwhelming.The contents include:1. Marigold2. Summer Moment3. Sparkle4. Ghost Train5. Weekend Winner6. Philosophy7. Class8. Meditation9. Cloudy Lemonade10. Shady SubwayThere is a wide variety of styles included in this collection, and each duet focuses on a different technique, from staccato and legato to dynamics and syncopation. These duets should provide a fun break from exam materiel, while still providing an educational element.




Tuning, Timbre, Spectrum, Scale


Book Description

Tuning, Timbre, Spectrum, Scale focuses on perceptions of consonance and dissonance, and how these are dependent on timbre. This also relates to musical scale: certain timbres sound more consonant in some scales than others. Sensory consonance and the ability to measure it have important implications for the design of audio devices and for musical theory and analysis. Applications include methods of adapting sounds for arbitrary scales, ways to specify scales for nonharmonic sounds, and techniques of sound manipulation based on maximizing (or minimizing) consonance. Special consideration is given here to a new method of adaptive tuning that can automatically adjust the tuning of a piece based its timbral character so as to minimize dissonance. Audio examples illustrating the ideas presented are provided on an accompanying CD. This unique analysis of sound and scale will be of interest to physicists and engineers working in acoustics, as well as to musicians and psychologists.

Understanding Basic Music Theory


Book Description

The main purpose of the book is to explore basic music theory so thoroughly that the interested student will then be able to easily pick up whatever further theory is wanted. Music history and the physics of sound are included to the extent that they shed light on music theory. The main premise of this course is that a better understanding of where the basics come from will lead to better and faster comprehension of more complex ideas.It also helps to remember, however, that music theory is a bit like grammar. Catherine Schmidt-Hones is a music teacher from Champaign, Illinois and she has been a pioneer in open education since 2004. She is currently a doctoral candidate at the University of Illinois in the Open Online Education program with a focus in Curriculum and Instruction.
