Pulses in the Centre of Silence Composition Scores and Artistry Concepts – PDF/EPUB Version Downloadable

This book is primarily a book of Carlo Mombelli’s recorded works. However, you will find not only the lead sheets or scores of his compositions from the stories of his life but also chapters about his musical ideas and concepts and theories about performance, listening, learning and teaching, so that you can gain insight into where and how those compositions were created.The views expressed in this book are Mombelli’s alone and come from his experience as a bassist and composer, and the music concepts apply to all instrumentation. He tends to write from the viewpoint of being a jazz musician and an improviser – even though he is not sure if his compositions fall into that genre, as he has never wanted to be stuck in a box.Mombelli expresses his feelings and thoughts on music performance and composition: things that he has learnt and believes in as they have worked in his life as a musician. However, there are many different concepts, many different ways to practise and learn, and many ways to perform and achieve your goals. And there are many different styles of music. Whether you agree or disagree with him, it’s all good.He has placed his writings in this book under six headings:1. Tone, Taste, Time, Ears and Technique2. Passion, Patience, Perseverance and Practice3. Composition and Improvisation4. Originality5. Learning and Teaching6. Music Scores and Lead Sheets (over 100 compositions)
