The ‘dumb it down’ series offers simplified piano accompaniments to works for violin, viola, violoncello, flute, clarinet and other instruments.

The notation clearly differentiates which quavers should be played and which are optional by indicating the repetition marks (see the notation from bar 11 in the 3rd movement in particular). This additional possibility of simplification as well as a low tempo (realistic in a teaching context) justify the rating of the piano movement as 2.

For individual and group lessons ‘Playing the viola is fun!’ remains the motto of the 2nd volume of the viola method for children. In a playful way, students learn the second and third fingerings in the first position, expand their melodic and ensemble playing skills, practise double stops, slurs and the portato bowing technique and deepen their knowledge of music theory. Children's songs, traditionals and canons, which sit alongside the classical works, encourage singing along and increase motivation. The funny little monkeys are once again at the viola students' side and ensure that even small learning steps remain exciting. Child-friendly pictures and notes support the learning process.

Besetzung: Soli (SABarB), 4-st. gem. Chor, 2.2.2.2.-0.1.0.0., Schlgw., Pk, Str (Posaunenchor ad lib.) Dauer: 60 Minuten Schwierigkeitsgrad: mittelschwer Klavierauszug (N 4631) Das plattdeutsche Weihnachtsoratorium für Soli, gemischten Chor, Orchester und Orgel erblickt im Dezember 2024 das Licht der Welt. Mit" De hillige Nacht" schafft Claus Woschenko (* 1979) ein eindrucksvolles Vokalwerk, das traditionelle Weihnachtsklänge mit der besonderen Schönheit der plattdeutschen Sprache verbindet. Das Werk folgt der traditionellen Dramaturgie eines Weihnachtsoratoriums: Soli, Rezitative und Choräle stehen im Wechselspiel und erzählen die Weihnachtsgeschichte in eindrucksvoller musikalischer Form. Dabei erklingen bekannte Choräle wie „Makt hoch de Döör (Macht hoch die Tür)“, „Kümmet, ji Harders (Kommet, ihr Hirten)“ uvm. und verleihen der Komposition dadurch einen vertrauten, festlichen Charakter. Claus Woschenkos Komposition zeichnet sich durch eine farbenreiche, harmonische Klangwelt aus, die modern daherkommt und gleichzeitig zugänglich bleibt. Seine Musik verbindet zeitgenössische Ausdrucksformen mit einer emotionalen Wärme des Weihnachtsfestes. Durch raffinierte Instrumentation und klangliche Nuancen schafft er eine Atmosphäre, die festlich, aber nicht überladen wirkt – modern, ohne dabei dissonant zu sein. Die Musik strahlt eine behagliche Tiefe aus, die sowohl den Texten als auch der festlichen Stimmung gerecht wird. Woschenko nutzt zudem die klangvolle, vokalreiche Schönheit der plattdeutschen Sprache, die Zeugnis eines grenzübergreifenden Kulturraums im nördlichen Europa ist. Diese Sprache, die sich hervorragend vertonen und singen lässt, verleiht dem Oratorium eine besondere Ausdruckskraft. Das Weihnachtsoratorium lässt sich von Laien- und Profimusikern gleichermaßen realisieren. Uraufführung: 22.12.2024 in der Plöner Kirche.
