The New Programme - Autumn and Winter 2008/2009

Regular practice is the daily bread of all musicians. However, not all practice is equal. In order that your hard work is rewarded, we have developed the Essential Exercises series. This is a library of basic study literature for all instrumentalists. Standard study repertoire is included as well as new technical exercises and methodical guidance.

The Singing Sherlock series from Boosey and Hawkes continues to expland with the arrival of Singing Sherlock 4, which will provide yet more exciting repertoire for primary singing.

For guitarists, we have a wonderful selection of new titles: Improvising Blues Guitar, Discovering Rock Guitar and Gipsy Guitar. These informative method books are fun to use and provide an introduction to the styles and techniques behind the specified genre. As a special bonus, the accompanying CD contains complete demo tracks as well as backing tracks of all the songs.

Christopher Norton presents a selection of his most popular concert pieces: The Boosey & Hawkes Concert Collection is now available for violin, trumpet and alto saxophone. On the CD there are not only full performances by Chris and his fellow musicians, but also play-along versions of all pieces.

We are also commemorating one hundred years since the death of the great composer Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov. In his memory, Belaieff has published the Six Variatios on the theme B A C H in the Belle Epoque Russe series - a real discovery for pianists!

We hope you enjoy listening, playing and also practising.
