The three nocturnes in this collection were selected because they are technically the easiest to play, and they should be quite accessible to most late-intermediate students. For teachers who are looking for pathway literature to the Chopin nocturnes, these three nocturnes by Field are not only an excellent introduction to the romantic style, but masterworks in their own right.

Der Titel des Klavierzyklus' Nacht-Urnen ist ein makabres Wortspiel mit dem franzosischen Begriff Noct-urne. Die Assoziation Urne - Grabgefass ist beabsichtigt, denn die Gattung des romantischen Nachtstucks fur Klavier wird in diesen Stucken - zumindest im ubertragenen Sinne - zu Grabe getragen. Das erste Stuck Nocturne greift auf den dreiteiligen Typ des Chopin'schen Nocturnes zuruck. Einer von zart getropften Tonen umspielten Melodie folgt ein bewegt - aufgewuhlter Mittelteil, dem sich die Reprise des ersten Teils anschliesst, diesmal allerdings wird die Melodie von leise rauschenden Skalen umspielt, ehe eine beinahe nuchterne Coda die musikalische Quintessenz brennglasartig zusammenfasst und bundelt. Dieses Stuck entstand 1998 und war Pflichtstuck beim Internationalen Schubert-Wettbewerb 2000 in Dortmund.Die drei folgenden Stucke bilden gewissermassen eine Einheit. Nummer zwei Ciacona notturna ist ein hochst virtuoses Werk fur die linke Hand allein, in dem sich grosse Klavierkomponisten, die Werke fur die linke Hand allein geschrieben haben - Alkan, Brahms, Godowsky, Ravel, Prokofieff - gleichsam ein nachtliches Stelldichein geben. Das dritte Stuck Unendliche Melodie - Melodie der Unendlichkeit (fur die rechte Hand allein - meines Wissens ausser einer Etude von Alkan das einzige existierende Werk fur die rechte Hand allein) spielt mit der Idee eines Zeitkontinuums, das schon vor Beginn des Stuckes unhorbar im Raum war und sich auch nach dem Ende des Stuckes in alle Ewigkeit weiter fortsetzen konnte. Ein einzelner Ton f in der Mitte der Klaviatur wird 55 Takte lang angeschlagen und uber ihm entfaltet sich eine weit gespannte Melodie, die die rechte Hand alleine ausspinnt. Exakt beim Hohepunkt der Melodie (es ist der Goldene Schnitt), wechselt das f zum e, das weitere 33 Takte lang angeschlagen wird, wahrend die Melodie daruber wieder zuruck zur Mitte findet. Diese 88 Takte symbolisieren die Unendlichkeit: 8 als barockes Zahlensymbol fur die Vollkommenheit der Ewigkeit und die liegende 8 als mathematisches Symbol fur die Unendlichkeit. Schliesslich ist in dem Titel des Stuckes noch eine Anspielung auf Richard Wagners Begriff der Unendlichen Melodie enthalten.Nach einem Stuck fur die linke und einem fur die rechte Hand allein, kann sich als viertes nur ein Unisonostuck anschliessen, in dem beide Hande stets die gleichen Tone, aber in unterschiedlichen Oktavabstanden und verschiedenen rhythmischen Akzenten spielen. La scala dell'inferno (Die Hollenleiter) sturzt von hochster Hohe in rasenden Skalen in die tiefsten Regionen des Klaviers hinab, unterbrochen von zwei kurzen Zitaten des Dies Irae in der Mitte.Der Schlusssatz schliesslich Marche funebre knupft in seiner dusteren Unentrinnbarkeit an die grossen Trauermarschvorbilder Beethovens (op. 26) und Chopins (op.35) an. Die sich in schwerem Funfertakt entlang rollenden dusteren Tonkaskaden werden in der Mitte von einem glasern-durchsichtigen Mittelteil unterbrochen, der in seiner gleissenden, fast schneidenden Helligkeit Assoziationen an Nahtoderlebnisse nahe legen mag. Die Nacht-Urnen op. 32 wurden 2001 im Museum Baden in Solingen von dem Pianisten Rainer Klaas uraufgefuhrt, dem der Zyklus auch gewidmet ist. - Stefan Heucke.

An Anthology of Piano Music for the Left Hand Alone marks a rare and significant entry to the piano literature as one of the only collections of the oft-neglected left-hand piano repertoire. Serious literature for the left hand alone has a long and storied past. Contained within this volume, the serious advanced pianist will find a wealth of artistically satisfying repertoire for the left hand that will not only strengthen the technical development of the left hand, but also make for impressive showpieces on the recital stage.This volume includes hitherto unpublished gems like Earl Wild's Etude No. 3 for the Left Hand Alone (Based on Gershwin’s The Man I Love) and Ruth Wylie's Soliloquy for Piano, Left Hand, Op. 23, as well as established classics of the repertoire like Godowky's Chopin arrangements, and even modern and contemporary additions like Bartok’s Etude for the Left Hand and Corigliano's Etude No. 1 for the Left Hand Alone.

Sarah Baker is Vocal Composer in Residence at Education Music Services, an ABRSM examiner and a well known composer of songs and musicals for primary schools and massed-choral events.All this experience has come together in the creation of this first published album of piano pieces, inspired by the sounds heard at night from the woodland just beyond Sarah’s childhood home.Suitable for players of around grade 4-5 standard, her evocative sound pieces begin at the tranquillity of dusk and end with the exuberant dawn chorus.The composer writes:'I grew up with woods behind my house, and the nocturnal noises and images that I remember were the inspiration for these eight short sound pictures on the theme of night. The music moves first from the tranquility of dusk and evening mists, to the emerging starlight of twilight. As night falls it takes on on a darker quality with shadows and dreams disturbing peace and calm.The night birds and bats swoop and flit past as they seek their prey, but gradually dawn approaches and peaceful sleep is restored. The morning is heralded in the joyful exuberance of the dawn chorus.'.

An ennead is a large composition in nine sections. Historical examples include an important early Latin epic, the discourses of the neoplatonic philosopher Plotinus, and the once popular poem by Edward Young, first published in 1745. This last was re-issued in 1802, in a sumptuous edition illustrated with more than five hundred engravings by William Blake, whose own Vala is also an ennead. Young's poem was called Night Thoughts, and I had originally intended to use the same title for my own set of quite independent nocturne-like pieces. Finally, I decided on the name Sonatina, as being a more accurate description of a work in which the interrelatedness of the sections placed it somewhere between the character of a suite and that of a set of variations, as well as emphasizing its artistic descent from the type of irregular sonata pioneered by such composers as Alkan and Busoni. -Justin Connolly.

This piano solo music sheet collection is consisted of 16 piano arrangements from 15 famous Japanese Rock and ballad songs from Visual Kei bands, including Forever Love by X Japan. The difficulty of the arrangement is indicated in 5 levels for each song. 13 pieces are arranged for intermediate level, while 3 are for advanced level, and it includes the song Anniversary by YOSHIKI, which is originally a piano concerto but arranged in piano solo for advanced players. The score is notated in double staves for piano, but it also can be played on other instruments such as guitar as the chord names are indicated. The pages with only original Japanese lyrics are included. All songs are arranged in the original keys and the same scales as the original songs. The arrangement closely recreates the original sounds and atmospheres while using easier fingering for intermediate level piano skills.
