Symphonic repertoire for keyboard percussion | VAN GEEM Jack
Symphonic repertoire for keyboard percussion is a collection of orchestral excerpts for glockenspiel, xylophone and vibraphone, by Jack VAN GEEM. A title from the orchestral repertoire.
Principal Percussionist of the San Francisco Symphony, head of percussion studies at the San Francisco Conservatory and faculty member at the Colburn School in Los Angeles, Jack Van Geem examines the keyboard percussion parts of the major symphonic repertoire. His explanations draw on countless performances under many of the world's finest conductors. Seventeen excerpts are covered, grouped by instrument: six on orchestra bells, ten on xylophone and one on vibraphone. The book takes in both the standards — no Boléro, but Porgy and Bess, Háry János and The Firebird are all here — and notoriously difficult pages such as Messiaen's Oiseaux exotiques.
Each analysis is followed by the parts, ready to practise and to perform.
A preparation tool for orchestral auditions and competitions.
In English, 87 pages.
