After an attentive and meticulous work of transcription and editing, we offer you this jewel of French Baroque music, in �lafsson's interpretation.

V�kingur �lafsson describes Rameau's "La Cupis" as follows: The character pieces stem from Rameau?s 1741 chamber music collection Pi�ces de clavecin en concerts, also prepared by the composer for solo keyboard. Here, the passage of time has rendered the titles somewhat enigmatic. ?La Cupis? may be yet another feminine portrait, its potential namesake being Marie-Anne Cupis, a well-known dancer. Why not? The work?s yearning, soulful melodies are surrounded by nimble, dance-like episodes. Watch V�kingur �lafsson peform Jean-Philippe Rameau's Pieces de clavecin en concerts : II. La Cupis.

"In any case, it is full of passion and zest." - V�kingur �lafsson

The score is unique. We at FRC Music have the joy of being able to offer this beautiful transcription for solo piano. You will love playing this piece and your audience will be delighted. Enjoy.

Les tendres plaintes (for Piano Solo) as played by V�kingur �lafsson

?For me, Rameau is up there with Handel, Scarlatti, and second only to Bach,? says �lafsson. ?It is simply genius keyboard writing.? His new album ?Debussy Rameau? juxtaposes Rameau?s music with that of Debussy, describing it as a ?dialogue? between the two composers. He said that together they ?defeat time and space with music?. What follows Debussy?s tender apologies on the album are Rameau?s tender complaints in ?Les Tendres Plaintes? from his Suite in D. In fact, tenderness was also the word evoked by Debussy to describe what he admired so deeply in Rameau ? ?Delicate and charming tenderness?, to be exact. Watch V�kingur �lafsson performing Jean-Philippe Rameau?s ?Les tendres plaintes?.?�lafsson?s interpretations inhabit a unique, distinct and extraordinary world all their own.? ? Gramophone

This solo piano arrangement was based on V�kingur �lafsson four-hand piano version of the recording. It is very close to the original four-hand recording, but here we present you with a possibility for you to play this beautiful Bach sonata alone, according to the interpretation of �lafsson, originally recorded as a piano duet with four hands.

The arts flourished in the Baroque period. Music from that time is still performed worldwide by symphonies, opera companies, choirs, chamber ensembles and soloists on many instruments. The period was characterized by the works of such great artists as J. S. Bach (b. 1685), Handel (b. 1685), Telemann (b. 1681) and many others. These composers defined the rich, ornate and melodic Baroque style of music which we categorize in the classical realm. There was another genre of music flourishing during this period, and that was the common or folk music style characterized by such composers as Ireland's legendary harpist, Turlough O'Carolan (b. 1670).In composing music for this book the author recreated harmonic and melodic elements of this great musical age, while adding some contemporary twists. All of the etudes are original and will serve to enhance guitar technique, phrasing, expression, note- reading ability, and knowledge of the entire guitar fingerboard. Fingering and string markings are included where appropriate.In addition to facilitating the many technical and aesthetic aspects of performing at an advanced level on the guitar, these etudes may be used successfully in concerts or recitals. This book is an ideal companion for the other books in the Mel Bay Achieving Guitar Artistry series, which is designed to condition and guide the developing guitarist to an advanced level of proficiency, regardless of the style of music performed.

A collection of all original duets for beginner to intermediate Flautists, progressively working through the requirements for grades 1 through to 5. With a variety of styles from Swing, Ragtime, Celtic, Romantic, (there's even the 'Train scene' from a silent film thrown in!) these are invaluable in lessons as sight reading practice, and light relief alongside exam study. The book also includes 'Eye-'n-Stein' a friendly eye icon that warns of possible danger ahead. The duets also have little tips for best results and technique. Also available in Clarinet and Saxophone editions.
