NEUE: Friedrich Lips Die Kunst der Bearbeitung klassischer Musik für Akkordeonby Harley Jones |
 Link zum Kauf und weitere Informationen online morgen.Subskriptions-Angebot Exklusives Sonderangebot 25 % Preisvorteil auf Vorbestellungen jetzt 29,50 Euro statt später 39,50 Euro (zzgl. Versandkosten) Einzigartig auf dem internationalen Markt: Das neue Akkordeon-Fachbuch Friedrich Lips Die Kunst der Bearbeitung klassischer Musik für Akkordeon Catalog No: kslips02 Seit langem wird das Buch mit Spannung erwartet. In Kürze wird es am Buchmarkt erhältlich sein. Jetzt kann es zu einmaligen Sonderkonditionen vorab bestellt werden. Für Schüler, Studenten, Lehrer, Bühnenmusiker, Komponisten und Bearbeiter, Laienspieler und Profimusiker. Der deutsch-russische Akkordeon-Virtuose und -Pädagoge Prof. Friedrich Lips aus Moskau zählt zu den weltweit bedeutendsten Künstlern seines Fachs. Als konzertierender Akkordeonist gastiert er mit renommiertesten Künstlern verschiedenster Genres auf den Bühnen der Welt. Als Professor lehrt er seit Jahrzehnten an der angesehenen Gnessin-Musikakademie in Moskau und hat Generationen von Meisterschülern hervorgebracht. Sein musikalisches Wirken umfaßt ferner eine Reihe von bedeutenden Veröffentlichungen, die internationales Ansehen genießen, sowie eine Vielzahl hochgeschätzter Kompositionen, die er als Bearbeiter klassischer Musikwerke geschaffen hat. Mit seinem neuen Buch hat er sich einer Thematik zugewandt, die nicht nur hochaktuell und von außerordentlicher Bedeutung für die Akkordeonspielkunst ist, sondern die bislang auch nicht ausführlich und tiefgreifend behandelt wurde. Die Bearbeitung von Musikstücken ist eine Praxis und ein Thema von größter Vielfalt und von kaum überschaubarer Spannbreite. Vor allem aber handelt es sich um eine wahrhaftige Kunst, die weithin unterschätzt wird – von Künstlern wie vom Publikum. Eine Bearbeitung bzw. Übertragung bedarf naturgemäß immer eines vorgegebenen Originals. Die schöpferische Kraft, die aufgewendet werden muß, um von der Vorlage eine künstlerisch angemessene und gelungene Bearbeitung zu erschaffen, steht der des ursprünglichen Komponierens bisweilen nicht nach. Dennoch ist an den Musikschulen wie auch an den höheren Lehranstalten für diesen Kunstbereich kein Lehrplan vorgesehen. Friedrich Lips widmet sich hier aus seiner unmittelbaren Praxis heraus dem Thema ausführlich in 7 Kapiteln und anhand von 150 Notenbeispielen. Mit Erläuterungen, die jedem gut verständlich sind, macht er Schüler und Studenten, Amateurmusiker wie Profis mit der Kunst der Bearbeitung von Musikwerken in ihrer ganzen Vielgestaltigkeit vertraut. Er konzentriert sich dabei zwar auf die Bearbeitung bzw. Übertragung von Werken der klassischen Musik, allerdings gelten die grundsätzlichen Erkenntnisse auch für alle anderen musikalischen Stilrichtungen. Kauf bei Katalog-Nr .: kslips02 |

 Frank's musical career commenced at the tender age of five years when his father gave him a ukulele. Although his father was a guitarist and singer Frank's preferred instrument was to be the accordion. He was given a concertina when he was seven, and an accordion for his 10th birthday.His early years were spent in Australia where he learned drums, playing them in the Broken Hill Junior Boys Brass Band. In these early years, Frank was involved in entertaining as a child accordionist on the radio and later while in Sydney he formed his own dance band. While living in Sydney his accordion was stolen from a train, but this misfortune was compensated for, when he made music with a Dalmatian group, an activity he loves and is renowned for. In 1951 Frank made a visit to NZ where he travelled to Dargaville to meet a number of his countrymen who reside in that area. One evening he was invited to a dance and on returning to his seat, he found a lady and her very attractive daughter had occupied his vacant seat. He soon became acquainted with that beautiful daughter Stephanie Sutich and she became the reason he stayed in NZ, and a little later she became his wife. After he settled in Dargaville, Frank was to contribute to making it one of the centres of the accordion in NZ. Although a small town, at its peak, it boasted six accordion bands and has produced some of NZ's best accordionists. Frank soon started teaching the accordion and formed the Frank Vilich Accordion Band (FVAB) as well as performing with the Dargaville Tamburica Orchestra. His accordion band never accepted fees for their performances even though they travelled over much of Northland and performed ten or twelve times per year for many charity functions. They were instrumental in raising thousands of dollars for these charities. The accordion Museum in Dargaville currently has memorabilia on display from these times. It was a sad day for Dargaville when Frank left to live in Auckland. However Auckland has benefited from his enthusiasm for music and the accordion and once again Frank began teaching and formed the Frank Vilich Revival Accordion Band, which, as it had done in Dargaville, delighted so many people with performances of Dalmatian and other types of music. Here in Auckland the dominant feature has been helping good causes without accepting remuneration. Frank often returned to Dargaville to entertain at various functions held by the community. In addition to these activities Frank has judged regularly at the NZ Accordion Championships, and played for a number of years at night clubs and restaurants. During his brief tenure as President of the NZAA he initiated a picnic and a regular Association Ball. While living in the North he was a member of the first music group to make a recording in that area and in later years while residing in Auckland he has recorded for local radio stations. Frank is a Life Member of the New Zealand Accordion Association. In 1990, Frank Vilich was awarded the Accordion Examination Board of New Zealand Merit Award. In 1996 Frank Vilich was awarded the Queen's Service Medal for Community Service (QSM) in the New Years Honours. Frank has entertained at retirement homes for many years, both in groups and as a soloist. During his lifetime he has given pleasure to tens of thousands. Thank you Frank Vilich. Requiem Mass to celebrate Frank's life will be held at 11am on Tuesday 6 June also at Christ the King Catholic Church. Dearly loved husband of Stephanie and cherished Father and Father-in-law of Carleen and Robert, Sonja and Giles, Deanna and Paul, and Petreece and Bob. Loving Grandpa of Milos and Mariam, Mara, Terence, Gregory and Madeleine. God has you now in his keeping, we have you in our hearts. Requiem Mass to celebrate Frank's life will be held at 11am on Tuesday 6 June also at Christ the King Catholic Church. |
