Musically Incorrect: Conversations About Music at the 

End of the 20th Century ............................................... CMB13 

Milton Babbitt, Arthur Berger and Ross Lee Finney have, during 

long and distinguished careers, often commented upon the state 

of contemporary American music and have been unafraid to 

speak plainly about the dangers it faces in an increasingly 

musically illiterate and commercialized society. Throughout the 

pages of MUSICALLY INCORRECT, their essential and 

uncompromising integrity and their disdain for the merely 

fashionable and expedient are abundantly manifest. MUSICALLY 

INCORRECT brings to the reader the wisdom and insights of 

three of America’s great musical citizens. Edited by Hayes Biggs 

and Susan Orzel.

The story about Tscho-Kurt, Trabanta and… .................... ZM31620 

(Ger.) Tscho-Kurt is the name of the oldest son of a cheese 

manufacturer who says goodbye to his parents in order to see 

the great wide world. Trabanta is a veteran horse, once used for 

transport, given to him by his father. The musical story is about 

Tscho-Kurt’s adventures, illustrated by interjections on 

percussion instruments. The author uses the text in order to 

demonstrate the multiple possibilities of the instruments and 

thus encourages the kids to play by themselves and try things out. 

Difficult parts, however, should be played by the teacher. The 

children can then add sound effects as they wish. The songs 

contained herein can also be played on any other instrument. A 

detailed text containing hints and comments on pedagogically 

and didactically useful preparations precedes the tale. The 

pictures are meant to be coloured in.

Taking only a backpack and his cello, Louis journeys to the place

JUMP Pop Oboe ......................................................................... ZM75001 

With the CD presented here, the oboist Bernd Holz has jumped 

the borders of those sections music is usually separated into. In 

his songs specifically written for the oboe, Bernd Holz shows 

the instrument’s expressive variety to an audience familiar with 

pop music. The CD “JUMP Pop Oboe” is captivating due to its 

diversity. The pieces it contains are fascinating on account of 

their different compositons and arrangements; though full of 

unexpected harmonic sequences and interesting jumps, they still 

melt to show the composer’s characteristic style. “JUMP Pop 

Oboe” offers good music to the listener - sometimes relaxing, 

sometimes exciting but always fascinating - simply entertainment 

on a high level. Sheet music also available. 

MÄRKL, Kim 

Land of the Midnight Sun ...................................................... ZM75005 

Taking only a backpack and his cello, Louis journeys to the place

cabin alone in the wilderness. His life is filled with simple 

pleasures: observing the northern lights, catching a fish and

Europe is enhanced by an encounter with a mysterious singing 

voice who often leaves a jug of fresh reindeer milk on Louis’ 

doorstep. In memory of their unique encounter, he gives the gift 

of a pressed wild rose. David Ingram narrates this story full of 

suspense accompanied by Kim Märkl’s wonderful music. 

Following the story, there is the bonus track ‘Polar music’ by 

Kim Märkl. Storybook also available. 

The Secret Box ............................................................................ ZM75003 

Kim Märkl tells the unique and moving story of Rafael, a young

while rummaging in the attic. Enhanced by the charming 

illustrations of Heike Reiter, Kim Märkl sweeps us into the

wonderful music. Storybook also available. 

OFFERMANS, Wil (b. 1957) 

Made in Japan ............................................................................... ZM76101 

These songs, which for the most part are of traditional Japanese 

origin, show Wil Offermans was inspired by the landscape of 

the island of Kyushu, far away from the hectic Western pace. At 

the same time, by using a synthesizer, he tries to form a 

connection between tradition and modern times - a subjet which 

is widely spread in Japan. Both the sound language of the East 

and their meditating character is shared by all pieces.

The Craft of Conducting 

These DVDs introduce you to principles on which to build, 

applicable to any style. Both volumes come with an instructional 

booklet, and each section is numbered so it is available separately 

from the menu. Volume 1 covers stance, correct hold of the 

baton, beating patterns, control of the sound and use of the left 

hand. Volume 2 builds on the principles established in Volume 1. 

The aim is to increase the fluency of your technique so that you 

are free to express your musical intentions and convey them 

clearly to your ensemble. Also includes instruction on beating 

subdivisions, more detailed accents, pauses, texture and larger 

movements of the body. Denise Ham is Professor of Conducting 

at the Royal Academy of Music in London and at the 

internationally prestigious Canford Summer School of Music. 

Her warm, clear and comprehensive style is also much in 

demand, and she directs course and workshops worldwide, and 

trains and conducts orchestras in the UK and Europe.

COMPOSERS’ NOTES: 

Financial 

triumphs & 

disasters of the 

great composers 

EP7894 

We've all heard sad tales of impoverished composers: 

Mozart's final resting place a pauper's grave, Beethoven 

arrested as a tramp so shabby were his clothes. Then 

there are tales of composers who were fabulously 

wealthy: Gershwin made $10,000 from three minutes of 

music. But is it all true? 

Published in association with Classic FM, after the radio 

series of the same name, this book takes 27 composers 

from Bach and Haydn to Rachmaninov and Gershwin, 

and looks at their financial success (or lack thereof) in a 

biographical context.
