" Latin music divided into three parts of 32 mes. each: the first is for students with 1-2 years of experience (only long values and small chromatisms are used), the second is for those who have 2 or 3 (add dotted quarter / eighth notes and intervals of fourths), the third is for those at the end of the first cycle (flow from eighth in addition). This piece can "follow" the students for three years and / or allow 3 students with different levels to play together. " - Alain LOPEZ |

" A rythmic composition in which the cells "quaver / two semiquaver" and " two semiquaver / quaver " are like a leitmotiv until the end of the Piece. The numerous triplets are a wink of "Rhapsody in Blues" from George Gershwin. My goal was to facilitate the listening, the exchange and the mimicry betwenn the two associated players: no tandem ("Temps d'M") without that! " - Alain LOPEZ |

" During the short ternary intro, the two themes are depicted and then immediatly developped in binary with a mix of Jazz and Jazz Rock styles. The "Twinning" is exploited to make the most of it: in the title, the metric, the major tone and its relative minor, the themes, the chords, the characters attribute and the repeated notes in the melody. Listen to it ! " - Alain LOPEZ |

" The title of this Piece is a pun on Cubans rhythms. The opposition between the tone and used homonymous tone, as well as the rhythmic formula chosen on theme "B" are a typical feature of South America music. Concerning the melody, it is a stylistics composition on quarter note triplets! " - Alain LOPEZ |

" A romantic composition dedicated to my Director Jacques Andrieu and to his wife Danièle (pianist). The seventh intervals (range rarely used), major, minor or diminished allowed me to create a tender and touching melody. " - Alain LOPEZ |

" As a fan of bossa-novas from Antonio Carlos Jobim (with complex and moving harmonies), I have created my samba jazz in order to motivate students to work on typical rhythms of this musical style " - Alain LOPEZ |

" As the light whose reflection in the water is sometimes broken by the waves, I used ascending and descending movement in the melody. The pervasive use of syncopation also enabled me to exacerbate the impact felt by the ebb and flow. " - Alain LOPEZ |

" Blues with simple rhythmic cells and small ascending and descending chromatic movements. This piece will allow you to familiarize yourself with 'swing', supported by the piano accompaniment, imitating the horse's trot. " - Alain LOPEZ |
