Cards on the table - it's sight-reading time! Keyboard beginners can now train their sight-reading abilities with 16 piano and orchestral classics in new arrangements for two instruments and four players, each of them using one hand only. Thereby they will be able to gain experience in ensemble playing and acquire motivation by playing pieces they might not master on their own yet. For a better orientation in the score, the four symbols from playing cards are assigned to the four parts. Advanced students can also use the arrangements as piano duets - ideal for group lessons and recitals!

The names of George Gershwin (1898-1937) and Ira Gershwin (1896-1983) are synonymous across the globe with American musical creativity. The Gershwin family estates, their publishers, and the University of Michigan have joined forces to produce The George and Ira Gershwin Critical EditionÂ?the first-ever scholarly edition of the Gershwins' music and lyrics. This all-new practical edition facilitates both study and performance, giving a wide audience of musicians, scholars, students, and enthusiasts alike greater insight into the GershwinsÂ? art. The goal is to create clear and definitive publications that achieve the most accurate representations possible of the Gershwin brothers' unique and pioneering creativity. This all-new critical edition of the original 1924 arrangement of George Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue presents an authoritative transcription of arranger Ferde Grofé's handwritten holograph score preserved in the collection of the United States Library of Congress in Washington, DC. The edition represents as best as possible the piece as premiered by the Paul Whiteman Orchestra at his â??Experiment in Modern Musicâ? concert on February 12, 1924. Grofé prepared the score for the specific talents and timbres of the Whiteman Orchestra, largely from an ink fair copy of Gershwin's two-piano short-score manuscript. Gershwin continued to modify the piano solo portion of this short score during rehearsals and, most likely, even after the premiere of the piece.

Written in 1979 after seeing an exhibition of Rothko's paintings in Cologne, O is one of Barry's earliest published works. Both piano parts are the same and the composer describes the work as an exploration of ornamentation (the bending of an existing melody) and an etude in co-ordination (the challenge of playing exactly together).
