Description
You are the music is a collection of information-bearing songs with teach and encourage the future musician not only to learn, but to become the music. The series proposes a synthesis of body-mind-voice-vocabulary experiences through easy, lighthearted tunes in which one sings of the musical information while actually sing/doing/living it. Thus analysis and experience are simultaneous.
Since the nerves governing the vocal apparatus and those involved in pitch perception spring from the same root, hearing prepares singing and singing prepares hearing. They are interactive. We all possess from birth a complex and prodigious musical instrument - the body! Gesture and movement are equally parts of our human musical instrument, and these songs can be used to incite movement that expresses and incorporates the material being studied, by building it into our muscle-memory.
In short, the goal is that the body becomes a giant ear, and what the ear perceives is instantly recognizable - is known by its correct name, and can be reproduced at will vocally and eventually, instrumentally. The objective of this collection is for the musician to BE the music. The progressive mastery of technical points, such as recognition of polychords, intervals, harmonies, rhythms, etc., and the acquisition of musical habits, will permit the musician an effortless coordination of auditory perception, recognition, interpretation and eventually, improvisation, composition, direction (conducting) and enhanced expressivity in performance. Lastly, the author encourages accompanists to follow their inspiration, and take as many liberties with the written piano accompaniments, as he did himself during the recording. Joy Kane
Publishers use a lot of words to describe what they sell, and we know it can be confusing. We've tried to be as clear as possible to make sure you get exactly what you are looking for. Below are descriptions of the terms that we use to describe the various formats that music often comes in.
Choral Score
A score for vocalists that only contains the vocal lines. The instrumental parts are not there for reference. Generally, cheaper than a vocal score and requires multiple copies for purchase.
Facsimile
Reproductions of the original hand-written scores from the composer.
Full Score
For ensemble music, this indicates that the edition contains all parts on a single system (there are not separate parts for each player). In larger ensembles, this is for the conductor.
Hardcover
Hardbound. Generally either linen-covered or half-leather.
Orchestral Parts
Similar to a wind set, this is a collection of parts. In the case of strings, the numbers listed are the number of copies included, though generally these are available individually (often with minimum quantities required).
Paperback
When publishers offer multiple bindings (e.g. hardcover) or study scores, this is the "standard" version. If you're planning to play the music, this is probably what you want.
Performance / Playing Score
A score of the music containing all parts on one system, intended for players to share. There are not separate parts for each player.
Set of Parts
For ensemble music, this indicates that there are separate individual parts for each player.
Solo Part with Piano Reduction
For solo pieces with orchestra, this is a version that contains a piano reduction of the orchestra parts. For piano pieces, two copies are typically needed for performance.
Study Score
A small (think choral size) copy of the complete score meant for studying, and not playing. They make great add-ons when learning concertos and small chamber works.
Vocal Score
A score prepared for vocalists that includes the piano/organ part or a reduction of the instrumental parts.
Wind Set
For orchestral music, this is a collection of wind and percussion parts. The specific quantities of each instrument are notated.
With Audio
In addition to the printed music, the edition contains recordings of the pieces. This may be an included CD, or access to files on the internet.
With / Without Fingering (Markings)
Some publishers prepare two copies - a pure Urtext edition that includes no fingering (or bowing) suggestions and a lightly edited version that includes a minimal number of editorial markings.
