ALFRED I JUST FOR FUN<br />
ELKAN-VOGEL I ‘PASSACAGLIA IN C MINUS’<br />
Witty Strings<br />
Fun Times<br />
Elkan-Vogel’s new publication of Peter<br />
Schickele’s Passacaglia In C Minus: A<br />
Quodlibet For String Quartet maintains the wit<br />
of a P.D.Q. Bach piece while remaining short<br />
and easy for the developing string quartet. It’s<br />
a collage of known themes containing more<br />
than 24 melodies by Brahms, Bach and<br />
Haydn. The work’s namesake, Bach’s<br />
“Passacaglia In C Minor For Organ,” is woven<br />
throughout the entire piece. {presser.com}<br />
Alfred’s new Just For Fun songbook<br />
series is made up of 16 easy songbooks<br />
for guitar, ukulele, mandolin and banjo in four<br />
genres, including classic rock, easy rock,<br />
rock and pop, and swinging jazz. All songs<br />
in the series are arranged from the original<br />
recorded guitar parts and simplified. Each<br />
song includes standard music notation,<br />
instrument-specific tab, chord charts and<br />
lyrics. {alfred.com}<br />
