I Libri Step by Step, di Alessandro Macrì, seguono un percorso basato sul concetto di fare musica d’insieme, cioè divertirsi a suonare con gli altri ed arricchirsi a vicenda, imparando a conoscere il proprio strumento e cominciando a relazionarsi ed “aver rispetto” di chi suona al proprio fianco.

Il tutto al fine di impostare una mentalità di musicista, immergendo i ragazzi in una nuova esperienza, ovvero quella di far parte di un piccolo ensemble.

Questo libro presenta una selezione di melodie didattiche, traditional e di brani classici dei compositori più famosi del mondo: Händel, Mozart, Beethoven, Haydn, Brahms, Tchaikovsky, Vivaldi, Telemann, Purcell, Schubert, Praetorius, Offenbach, Corrette, Mouret, Grieg, Arban, Wagner, Weber, Schumann e Rimskij-Korsakov. 

The Books Step by Step, written by Alessandro Macrì, is based on some of the principles that identify a musical ensemble: enjoying playing with other people, learning from them, becoming familiar with your instrument and having respect for those who play beside you.

The ultimate aim is to cultivate the attitude of a musician by offering young people a new experience, that is to say being part of a small ensemble.

This book presents a selection of didactic melodies, traditional and classical pieces by the most famous composers in the world: Händel, Mozart, Beethoven, Haydn, Brahms, Tchaikovsky, Vivaldi, Telemann, Purcell, Schubert, Praetorius, Offenbach, Corrette, Mouret, Grieg, Arban, Wagner, Weber, Schumann and Rimskij-Korsakov.

Among the many songs and melodies we hear at Christmas are Christmas Carols, traditionally sung by Christmas carollers. Some Carols are Hymns celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ, while other Carols are Folk Songs about Christmas events and customs. Many of these are centuries old having been handed down through the generations, but there are also many popular songs about Christmas which are more recent in origin (e.g. from films or albums) and these are also now set to become traditional at this time of year.

Le "fanfares de chasse" (fanfare di caccia) sono una forma musicale legata alla tradizione venatoria francese e utilizzata durante le battute di caccia, particolarmente popolare tra il XVII e il XIX secolo. Questi brani, originariamente eseguiti con corni da caccia (in particolare il cor de chasse, una versione del corno naturale), servivano sia come segnali funzionali per i cacciatori, sia per enfatizzare momenti specifici della battuta di caccia.
