Dying of the Light is suitable for pianists wishing to incorporate reflection and social commentary into their repertoire. A tribute to HIV sufferers and a response to the hysteria and bigotry surrounding the disease, an extramusical trajectory is clear here, particularly at the end ‚Äì despite bursts of life and attempts of will to overcome decay, death overtakes. Yet beyond the sense of tragedy and outrage at untimely suffering and death, there is a feeling of transcendent positivity.

The new RSL Classical Piano syllabus aims to reflect the widening tastes of young people, positioning itself at the forefront of thevast array of music available to pianists, encompassing the rich heritage of music from the Baroque right through to the modern day and emerging composers. The repertoire strikes a balance between a radical redesign and maintaining a recognisable structure, and sticks to four key principles: championing ethnically diverse composers, representing genders, acknowledging the history and tradition of piano learning, and enabling students to feel comfortable studying music in a popular and classical environment. The syllabus books are all beautifully presented, and to the high standard for which RSL books have become renowned from their market-leading Rockschool examinations for contemporary music. Each contains 10 pieces from a diverse range of composers and include everything students need to take their exams, including technical exercises and supporting texts for sight-reading, ear tests and general musicianship questions.
