Remeber remember...

PRACTICE LESSON NOTEBOOKS




If I don't remember to write things down they get forgotten. This is why, many long years ago when I was teaching woodwind to a wonderful bunch of little girls, it seemed like a good idea to make notebooks for them.


The books were small, and fitted into most instrument cases, so didn't get forgotten.


For each lesson they have a space for
Scales
Studies
Pieces
Special points to remember


They acted as a reminder to the teacher to fill them in
and to check the following week that the work had been done.

Some of them are now out of print, but a few are still available.
Younger pupils particularly love them.

June Emerson Wind Music are proud to announce more Launchpad Prize winners for 2012 - Prima Vista and Wolken Recorder Quartet.

Prima Vista - Trinity College of Music




Prima Vista is an energetic ensemble that approaches the baroque repertoire with a very original and imaginative interpretation.

Their versatility has also enhanced their range of styles and eras to explore more recent work written for their combination by composers such as Edmund Rubbra and Jean-Michel Damase, performing on both original and modern instruments.

While studying at Trinity Laban Cobservatoire of Music & Dance, Adel Sahnoun and Petra Hadjuchova founded Prima Vista and were coached by Anna Noakes, James Johnstone, Stephen Preston, Pamela Thorby and Dan Laurin. They have now both graduated and are emerging into the professional world.

Their recent performances includes venues such as: the Chapel / Old Royal Naval College, the Maritime Museum, Fenton House & Our Lady Star of the Sea Church.
