Cambridge University Press Holst The Planets Cambridge Music Handbooks
Book SynopsisThis book is the first comprehensive guide to Holst's popular orchestral suite The Planets. It considers the music in detail and places the work in its historical context, describing the circumstances of its composition and its meteoric rise to popular acclaim. Starting with Holst's particular interest in astrology, Professor Greene explores the plotting of the work's central melodic and harmonic gestures to reveal a profound statement of human character and Holst's own psychological journey toward the mystic state. Using parallels in the verbal arts Greene weaves a fascinating tale of musical communication. An understanding of The Planets is crucial to a full appreciation of Holst's profound late works, and Greene's systematic appraisal provides the first revealing light in this direction.Table of ContentsAcknowledgements; Introduction: musical character and a theory of musical rhetoric; 1. Holst and the two Londons; 2. Genesis; 3. Reception; 4. The character plots (1): Mars to Mercury; 5. The character plots (2): Jupiter to Neptune; 6. On becoming The Planets: the overall design; Epilogue; Appendices; Notes; Select bibliography; Index.

Faber Music Ltd Christmas Quartetstart Level 1
Book SynopsisTrade ReviewThis is a set of eight of our best-loved Christmas carols, delightfully arranged. It is full of helpful tips such as warning, 'arco next' and 'pizz next' during rests, or to count carefully, over a tied note. Bars rests are counted out in the approved manner (one234/two234 etc). There are plenty of opportunities for audience participation with stamping of boots asked for, and shouting 'what do you want!' and 'go away!' in We Wish you a Merry Christmas. The mood of each carol is set with a sentence to be read and discussed, and there are many effects asked for ponticello playing (to make an icy-sound), harmonics, col legno, strumming, and opportunities to improvise (howling wind). Where a lead is needed from a player, it is specified, and the other parts marked 'look for a new lead'. The content is divided equally between the players. The parts are very clearly printed, with bar numbers, no fingering, and only essential bowing. This music is highly imaginative, and a very exciting start for young chamber music ethusiasts. If you have young pupils, this is a music for their school Christmas Concert, and to play on Christmas Day at home! European String Teachers Association, Winter 1999Table of ContentsOnce in royal David’s city; Good King Wenceslas; Away in a Manger; The Holly and the Ivy; Silent Night; O come, all ye faithful; Jingle Bells; We wish you a merry Christmas
