Firestarters 1 composed by Various. 14 Minatures for Solo Piano - Softback score & CD. Composed 2002. Published by Promethean Editions. PO.PE068. ISBN 1-877218-68-5. Five NZ and Australian composers have been brought together in an ideal selection for performance, exploration and general repertoire. Beautiful music, well crafted, interesting, idiomatic and challenging this is exactly what I have asked for so often in these pages. How stimulating to have several composers in one album. I shall certainly work on many of these pieces with students and can give the book my highest recommendation. May the series continue. John York, Piano , March. April 2005. One of my favourite teaching resources, and probably one of yours, is the kind of book that features a collection of pieces from a variety of composers a publication that appeals, by image as well as sound, to a broad range of students, even those with the most obstructive attitude problem. something that sparks the imagination without sacrificing musical integrity. Firestarters Volumes 1 & 2 are a collection of works recital pieces by contemporary New Zealand and Australian composers that do more than just spark. they positively ignite with the exuberance of a pyromaniac in a pine forest. Publishers Promethean Editions have, with uncanny instinct, identified what it takes to a appeal to teacher, student, die-hard romantic and contemporary purist. Firestarters 1 , published in 2002, is a collection of 14 miniatures for solo piano aimed at performers of approximately Grade 5 to Grade 8 level. There is much tenderness in the opening Love Songs of Gareth Farr, and the familiarity of the language will suit students who are new to contemporary music. And who could resist Anthony Ritchie's directions in Four Poems of Spring , to play 'Delicately, but with bite', 'with great elation, or 'with ridicule. Contemporary repertoire is a wonderful hunting ground for rhythmic challenges and there are plenty of brain teasers in this collection, but they are not insurmountable for students at this level. Australian Stuart Greenbaum achieves the right balance of simplicity and complexity in Time Lapse Photograph , pitching a minimalist left hand part against irregular rhythms in the right. Firestarters 2 , billed as '7 New Recital Pieces for Piano', was published three years later in 2005 and is recommended for pianists of Approximately Grade 8 to Diploma level. These works are larger-scale and more technically demanding than the first set, but still hold immediate appeal. At this level, students should have the confidence to step outside the square, and they can do just this in the beautifully logical yet un-metered Torrent by Penelope Axtens. Australian composer James Ledger grants freedom of a different kind when he juxtaposes improvisation with strict notation in Waiting for the Lights to Change. Both books come with detailed notes on the composers, and pieces that illuminate rather than alienate, in part thanks to the inclusion of comments from the composers themselves. The luxury of direct and specific communication from composer to performer eliminates some of the guesswork around interpretation, and gives something, and someone, to relate to a good hook for that student with an attitude problem. The books also come with CD recordings of the pieces. Wellington pianist Emma Sayers. courtesy of Massey University, Wellington. performs all but one track with her usual sensitivity, and Michael Houstoun. courtesy of Trust Records. makes a brief but welcome appearance in Firestarters 2 , playing John Psathas Waiting for the Aeroplane. The sensuous cover photographs promise beauty within and this promise is upheld from cover to cover. Firestarters avoids the common pitfall of collections that mix superior works with the mediocre and there is not one among them that I wouldn't want to teach, play or listen to.

Five NZ and Australian composers have been brought together in an ideal selection for performance, exploration and general repertoire. Beautiful music, well crafted, interesting, idiomatic and challenging this is exactly what I have asked for so often in these pages. How stimulating to have several composers in one album. I shall certainly work on many of these pieces with students and can give the book my highest recommendation. May the series continue. John York, Piano , March. April 2005. En av mine favoritt-læringsressurser, og sannsynligvis en av deg, er den type bok som inneholder en samling av stykker fra en rekke komponister en publikasjon som appellerer, med bilde samt lyd, til et bredt spekter av studenter, også de med den mest obstruktiv holdning problem. noe som gnister fantasien uten å ofre musikalsk integritet. Firestarters Volumes 1. de positivt antennes med begeistring av en pyroman i en furuskog. Utgivere Promethean Editions har, med uncanny instinkt, identifisert det som trengs til en appell til lærer, student, die-hard romantisk og moderne purist. Firestarters 1, utgitt i 2002, er en samling av 14 miniatyrer for solo piano rettet mot utøvere av ca Grade 5 til 8. klasse nivå. Det er mye ømhet i åpnings Love Songs av Gareth Farr, og kjennskap til språket vil passe studenter som er nye for samtidsmusikk. Og hvem kan motstå Anthony Ritchie retninger i fire Poems of Spring, å spille "Delikat, men med bite ',' med stor spenstighet, eller 'med latterliggjøring. Moderne repertoar er en fantastisk jaktterreng for rytmiske utfordringer, og det er nok av hjernetrimmere i denne samlingen, men de er ikke uoverkommelig for studenter på dette nivået. Australian Stuart Greenbaum oppnår riktig balanse mellom enkelhet og kompleksitet i Time Lapse Foto, pitching en minimalistisk venstre del mot uregelmessige rytmer i retten. Firestarters 2, omtalt som '7 New Recital Pieces for Piano ", ble utgitt tre år senere i 2005 og er anbefalt for pianistene i Omtrent 8. klasse til Diploma nivå. Disse arbeidene er større skala og mer teknisk krevende enn det første settet, men fortsatt holder umiddelbar appell. På dette nivået, bør elevene ha tillit til å gå utenfor torget, og de kan gjøre nettopp dette i den vakkert logisk ennå un-oppmålte Torrent av Penelope Axtens. Australske komponisten James Ledger gir frihet av en annen type når han sammenstiller improvisasjon med streng notasjon i Waiting for the Lights til Endre. Begge bøkene kommer med detaljerte notater om komponistene, og stykker som belyser snarere enn Alienate, delvis takket være inkluderingen av kommentarer fra komponistene selv. Luksusen av direkte og konkret kommunikasjon fra komponist til utøver eliminerer noen av gjetting rundt tolkning, og gir noe, og noen, å forholde seg til en god krok for at studenten med en holdning problem. Bøkene har også kommet med CD-innspillinger av bitene.

De sanselige forsider fotografier lover skjønnhet innenfra og dette løftet er opprettholdt fra perm til perm. Firestarters unngår vanlig fallgruve av samlinger som blander overlegne arbeider med middelmådig og det er ikke en av dem som jeg ikke ønsker å lære, spille eller lytte til.
