Frode Fjellheim: Med joik som utgangspunkt (Yoik as a starting point)

Feb 23, 2003 | Books, Sheet Music, Pedagogisk materiale og forskning

Med joik som utgangspunkt - Yoik as a starting point is a textbook in music - with yoik as a starting point.
Of course you learn to yoik, but you also learn notes, music theory, composition, arrangement, use of voice and much, much more. Everything with yoik as a starting point. The book represents something completely new in the field of music. Recorder and "Orff instruments" have been replaced with our nearest instrument - the voice. The book addresses both the traditional aspects of the yoik and puts it into a modern framework. The book is aimed at anyone who wants to learn something about music! A CD with examples, accompagnement and tasks is included.

Joik For Choir is of course right up there for mixed choirs who want a new and exciting material.

The included CD means that the rehearsal is significantly simplified, at the same time as the pre-recorded backing tracks contributes to a professional result.
