Par MUSSORGSKY MODEST. The Russian composer Mussorgsky was for the most part self-taught. His contemporaries were not always enthusiastic about the innovations in his music and accused him of lacking technique. Today, however, Mussorgsky is considered the innovator of Russian music par excellence. Although he gained fame primarily as a composer of operas and songs, Mussorgsky also wrote a number o…

This piece is a prime example of his interst in ealier forms of music. This version has been faithfully if not wonderfully arranged for…

Par DICKBAUER KLAUS. In the previous edition, Klaus Dickbauer covered major scales, triads, and interval exercises - combined with groovy beats - in a fresh and contemporary way. He now continues his well-thought-out approach to scales with a concentration on Dorian, Mixolydian, pentatonic, and blues scales - the perfect tools for building first improvisation skills on the recorder.
