Those interested in French music have often had reason to be grateful to Roger Nichols; his writings on Debussy Ravel Messiaen and Poulenc are indispensable to the music lover. Nichols now turns his attentions to the mélodie where it is his mission to encourage singers to explore beyond the well-trodden paths of French song. In these two anthologies he does not ignore masterpieces by composers of the stature of Fauré and Duparc but sets them alongside music - almost impossible to find elsewhere in print - by such under-estimated figures as Reber Viardot Massé and Paladilhe. Even the more celebrated songs are often not easilyfound in practical editions which makes this selection an ideal starting point for wider exploration. In each of these volumes the songs appear in the chronological order of their composer's birth but Nichols somehow contrives a line-up of music which seems delightfully arbitrary at the same time as carefully designed to enrich everyone's understanding of the mélodie. The books also contain a remarkable amount of scholarship lightly worn and pithily expressed. As well as complete translations of the songs there is a useful and concise introduction on singing in French together with an illuminating historical note and critical commentary; and Nichols gives full due to the poets who were of crucial importance in the development of the mélodie tradition. Complete with translations and guidance on pronunciation Reber Guitare Gounod Le soir Gounod Le premier jour de mai Viardot Les deux roses Viardot La mésange Franck Nocturne Massé Souvenirs Lalo Chant Breton Saint-Saëns Chanson triste Bizet Vieille chanson Massenet Madrigal

Crossing Borders is a new progressive series of volumes designed to introduce the developing pianist to a broad range of popular music including jazz blues rock and pop. Most of the pieces are original written by Remo Vinciguerra and the series as a whole is intended to be used as a lively and entertaining parallel to the standard classical training. The rhythmic melodic and harmonic fingerprints of a wide range of popular styles are gradually introduced yet a classical spirit or framework can also be recognised in much of the music. In accordance with the relative freedom typical of popular music many interpretative decisions especially concerningdynamics and pedalling are left to the players. Tempo indications are for guidance only and need not be taken too literally.
