With his Venti pezzi per pianoforte (1938), the Hungarian composer Sándor Veress (1907-92) wanted to create a collection of piano miniatures on folk melodies destined for use in the concert hall as well as for teaching purposes. Each piece is based on one or more songs and dances from different Hungarian speaking areas, which are re-elaborated and presented in a carefully conceived alternation of character, musical writing and technical difficulty. The result is a multi-colored overview of Hungarian folk music: songs of a pathetic or even dramatic nature are contrasted with lighter and high-spirited pieces, interspersed with dances of varying types, among which a homogeneousblock stands out formed by the group of Csárdás, a typical tavern dance also used by Liszt. The Venti pezzi per pianoforte represent the culmination of the extensive ethnomusicological research made by Veress in the ’30s and ‘40s, while working as assistant to László Lajtha and to Béla Bartók, and at the same time carrying out field work in Hungary and neighboring countries. The composer intended that this collection should play a fundamental role of mediation between folklore and western “art†music, by revitalizing the language from within, without resorting to the abstractions of the experimentation being developed in Europe at the time. During his lifetime Veress never succeeded in publishing the complete version of the Venti pezzi per pianoforte, but issued various selections of the pieces, two of which remained totally unpublished. The present critical edition prepared by Giada Viviani reconstructs the complete text of the Venti pezzi per pianoforte on the basis of manuscript sources kept at the Paul Sacher Foundation in Basel: the musical scores, with fingering by Jakub Tchorzewski, are accompanied by an introductory essay on the context in which the collection was created, including a description of the state of the sources and a detailed apparatus criticus of the textual variants. Con i suoi Venti pezzi per pianoforte (1938), il compositore ungherese Sándor Veress (1907-92) ha voluto creare una raccolta di miniature pianistiche su melodie popolari destinate sia a un uso concertistico, sia all’attivit didattica. In ogni branovengono rielaborati uno o più canti e danze provenienti da diverse aree geografiche di lingua ungherese, che si susseguono in base a una sapiente alternanza di carattere, scrittura musicale, difficolt esecutiva. Viene così offerta una variegatapanoramica della musica popolare di questa nazionalit : a canti di contenuto patetico o addirittura drammatico se ne affiancano di più leggeri e giocosi, avvicendandosi a danze di natura differente, tra cui spicca come un blocco omogeneo il gruppodelle Csárdás, tipica danza da locanda utilizzata anche da Liszt.I Venti pezzi per pianoforte rappresentano il coronamento della ricca attivit etnomusicologica condotta da Veress tra gli anni ’30 e ‘40, sia lavorando come assistente di László Lajtha e di Béla Bartók, sia svolgendo ricerca sul campo in Ungheria enei paesi limitrofi. Per il compositore, questa raccolta doveva svolgere un fondamentale ruolo di mediazione tra il folklore e la musica “colta†occidentale, in maniera da rivitalizzarne il linguaggio dall’interno, senza gli astrattismi dellesperimentazioni allora condotte in Europa.Nel corso della sua vita Veress non riuscì mai a pubblicare la versione integrale dei Venti pezzi per pianoforte, mentre ne fece uscire sul mercato alcune selezioni, lasciando del tutto inediti due brani. La presente edizione critica a cura di GiadaViviani ricostruisce il testo completo dei Venti pezzi per pianoforte in base alle fonti manoscritte conservate presso la Fondazione Paul Sacher di Basilea: gli spartiti musicali, corredati dalla diteggiatura di Jakub Tchorzewski, sono accompagnatida un saggio introduttivo sul contesto di creazione della raccolta, dalla descrizione dello stato delle fonti e da un dettagliato apparato critico delle varianti testuali.

The Mazurka in A flat major was written between the Mazurkas, Opp. 17 and 24 (1833) and the Mazurkas, Op. 30 (1835). It differs from those sets, which in their dimensions, texture, harmony (including chromatism), elaborate ornamentation (e.g. in Op.17 No. 4), folk bourdons (Op. 17 No. 1), transferral of the melody to the left-hand part (Op. 24 No. 2) and differentation of compositional technique. The Mazurka in A flat major is not, however, a bridge between these opuses, but an occasionalwork - a gift for a lady written into her album. It has a simple design and uncomplicated texture.

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 album of piano pieces, inspired by growing up in the Chiltern Hills. Suitable for players of around grade 4-5 standard, her evocative sound pieces describe a crash-landing hot air balloon, garden invading cows and a even a snake in a pond!Air Balloon!: One vivid memory I have as a child is of the day that a hot air balloon passed over our house and made an emergency landing on the road in front! The sound of the gas being blown into the balloon to try to keep it high enough to pass the house sounded so loud and intimidating, and then there was the bustle of the neighbours as we all went out into the street to watch. It was both terrifying and exhilarating to watch the balloon float past and then land so near by.Buzzards Circling: There is something so calming and restful about watching birds of prey circling in the thermal currents of a summer sky. Growing up in the Chilterns gave me plenty of opportunity to watch buzzards and red kites. This piano solo captures the beauty of their flight as they glide so effortlessly through the air.There’s A Cow In The Garden Eating The Flowers: Inspired by the memory of seeing an unexpected cow in the garden! This surreal image is captured in a quirky waltz, as I portray both the absurdity of the moment and the sense of wonder I felt as a child, looking out of the window and seeing the cow walking round and eating the flowers. The final phrase articulates my longing: ‘I wish it would come again’.Watching The World Go By: A short, reflective piece, remembering what it was like to have time to just sit and watch the world go by from my bedroom window.Autumn Skies: A miniature about the beauty of Autumn skies and the poignant sense of loss for a summer gone. Friends I was fortunate to have several children of my own age living close by. We seemed to be forever making dens, playing out in the street and generally enjoying each other’s company. This piece reflects that sense of well-being.Snake In The Pond: One hot summer I was astonished and scared to see a grass snake cooling off in our garden pond! I watched, both horrified and fascinated, as it rose up from the depths and then disappeared again. Here I portray the sense of the hazy summer afternoon as I peacefully watched the tiny movements of fish in the pond, contrasted with the fear and excitement of seeing the snake appear.Morning Commute: I recollect many mornings stuck in traffic as my Dad took me to school on his way to work. There is one main road out of the village where I grew up, and that got more and more congested the closer we got to the town. We may not have chatted a lot, but it was always good to be together with my Dad, lost in our own thoughts.The Witch’s Cottage: My siblings and I had a fascination with a small cottage nearby. It was set back from the road in a dark part of the woods and we called it 'the witch's cottage’. Every time we passed, I imagined I heard the distant cackle of the witch and wished I could catch a glimpse of her.These pieces are written to complement my other collection, Night Time Impressions, which also draw on childhood recollections, particularly of the woods behind the house where I grew up. - Sarah Baker 2023.

En décembre 2011, Chilly Gonzales déménagea son piano au studio Pigalle à Paris.

Chilly Gonzales enregistra ses pièces les unes après les autres, jusqu’à capturer l’essence-même de chacune.Après des années passées à distraire son public avec sa personnalité “larger than life, à défier tous les artistes du monde, les obligeant à se surpasser pour atteindre l’excellence qu’ils doivent à leurs fans, Chilly Gonzales nous présente son argument le plus persuasif : les 14 titres de Solo Piano II contenus dans ce recueil.La route fut riche jusqu’à Solo Piano II pour “le génie musical auto-proclamé. Porté par une nomination Grammy et un record du monde Guinness Book du concert le plus long, Chilly Gonzales reprit enfin la scène après de nombreuses années passées derrière la console d’un studio à travailler pour les autres. Il devient LE pianiste sollicité par Drake, Feist, Daft Punk, …et même Steve Jobs pour sa campagne mondiale pour IPAD 2.A travers ses albums et tournées, Chilly fascine par sa polyvalence en tant qu’interprète et sa virtuosité en tant que pianiste. Rare est l’artiste qui fait danser son public sur les rythmes les plus branchés du moment, puis fait appel à un orchestre symphonique pour l’accompagner durant son concert de rap.Avec Solo Piano II, Chilly Gonzales se distingue une fois de plus comme un authentique “entertainer, conscient que la plus belle marque de respect pour ses fans est avant tout de “shut up and play the piano (dixit Chilly Gonzales dans “The Unspeakable Chilly Gonzales, 2011).

Jon Lord’s Sarabande was composed during 1975 and released as a solo album the following year. This new revised edition of the composer’s 2010 concert version represents the first appearance of the work in print in anyform. Lord intended it for his own use in live performance, as a companion to his celebrated Concerto for Group and Orchestra. It is a brilliant showpiece for the combined forces of rock band and orchestra, takinginspiration from the keyboard suites of J.S. Bach. This new full score is edited by Jon Lord’s long-time musical collaborator, the conductor Paul Mann, and makes use of many previously unavailable sources including themanuscriptscores of the original version and a copy of the score corrected in consultation with the composer following the 2010 premiere. It can therefore be said to represent as closely as possible Jon Lord’s final thoughts onthe work. Jon Lords Sarabande werd gecomponeerd in 1975 en het jaar daarop uitgebracht als soloalbum. Deze nieuwe, herziene uitgave van de concertversie die de componist zelf in 2010 vervaardigde, is de eerste editie op papier dieooit van het werk is verschenen. Lord gebruikte de basisversie zelf bij live optredens, wanneer hij het werk uitvoerde naast zijn gevierde Concerto for Group and Orchestra. Het is een geweldig stuk voor een combinatie vanrockband en orkest, ge nspireerd op de klavecimbelsuites van Johann Sebastian Bach. Deze nieuwe partituur is bewerkt door dirigent Paul Mann, met wie de componist op muzikaal gebied al jaren samenwerkt. Er zijn veelvoorheenontoegankelijke bronnen voor gebruikt, waaronder de handgeschreven partituren van de originele versie en een partituur die na de première in 2010 is verbeterd in overleg met de componist. Daarom kan worden gesteld datdeze bewerking de laatste gedachten van Jon Lord over dit werk zo nauwkeurig mogelijk weergeeft. Partitur und Klavierauszug der Sarabande können käuflich erworben werden. Das Einzelstimmen-Set ist ausschließlich Leihmaterial.Auskunft über Leih-Bedingungen und Preise erhalten Sie auf Nachfrage. Bitte kontaktierenSie: HalLeonard Europe BV - Rental departmentE-Mail: rental@halleonardeurope.nlJon Lords Sarabande entstand 1975 und wurde im darauffolgenden Jahr alsSoloalbum veröffentlicht. Die überarbeitete Ausgabe der Konzertversion des Komponisten aus dem Jahr 2010 erscheint hiermit zum ersten Mal in gedruckter Form. Lord hattediese Version für seine eigenen Live-Auftritte gedacht, alseine Art Ergänzung zu seinem berühmten Concerto for Group and Orchestra. Das Werk ist ein brillantes Paradebeispiel für die vereinte Kraft von Rockband und Orchester und wurde von denSuiten J. S. Bachs inspiriert. Dieseneue Ausgabe der Partitur wurde von Paul Mann, Jon Lords langjährigem musikalischem Freund, herausgegeben. Sie basiert auf zahlreichen bisher nicht zugänglichen Quellen wie dem Manuskript der Originalversion undeiner Kopie der inAbsprache mit dem Komponisten korrigierten Partitur nach der Aufführung im Jahr 2010. Es werden somit Jon Lords letzte Gedanken zu diesem Werk so genau wie möglich dargestellt. Sarabande de Jon Lord fut composé en 1975 et sorti comme disque solo l’année d’après. Cette nouvelle édition révisée, basée sur la version de concert du compositeur de 2010, est la toute première version publiée de l’œuvre.Lord l’avait conçue pour accompagner son Concerto for Group and Orchestra lors d’interprétations en direct. Un morceau virtuose qui combine les forces de groupe de rock et d’orchestre, inspiré par les suites pour clavier deJean-Sébastien Bach. Cette nouvelle édition complète est éditée par le chef d’orchestre Paul Mann, collaborateur musical de Jon Lord depuis longtemps. Elle se repose sur de nombreuses sources qui étaient indisponiblesauparavant,comme le manuscrit de la version originale, ainsi qu’une copie de la partition corrigée en consultation avec le compositeur après la première de 2010. Par conséquent, cette édition est sans doute une représentationaussi précise que possible des dernières réflexions de Jon Lord sur cette œuvre.

To Mediterrane Meditiationer / Two Mediterranean Meditations for Piano solo was composed by Per Nørgård in 1980. Dedicated Ragnhild Toft.
1. Græsk motiv (Greek motif) 2. Medstrømme (Cocurrent) The piano pieces (Two Mediterranean meditations) was inspired by a little town, Isternia, in the Greek island Tinos. During a stay there I was captured by the timeless peace that emitted from the shimmering white sculptured steps, and by the sounds in the narrow streets, creating an atmosphere of balanced activity on the background of a meditative silence. The pianopieces are related to the work “Isternia” (1979, for cimbalon solo, later rewritten for other instruments); the music seems to possess a certain timeless or rather ´genre-less´ character; this is effected through the use of archetypal melodies and meters changed in a rather ´cubistic´ way. In this respect the work is related to my “Sonora” (for flute and harp) and the duet “Medstrøms og modstrøms” (“Cocurrent & countercurrent”) Per Nørgård

The Evolution of Solo Jazz Piano is a study of solo piano styles developed by 24 of the most influential solo pianists from 1900 to the present. In order to clearly illustrate the specific contributions of the various pianists, Bill Dobbins composed a theme based on the well-known standard All of Me. By applying the stylistic approaches of the different pianists to the same theme, one becomes aware of the subtle yet evocative elements of each individual style. Common elements between Waller, Ellington, Tatum, Monk and Rowles, Tatum, Hines and Wilson, Smith and Ellington, Corea and Beirach etc., should make it clear that musical individuality is largely the result of the subconscious emphasis of some musical elements over others, rather than the self-conscious cultivation of originality for its own sake. We sincerely hope that this DVD may serve as a stimulus toward the further study of the solo jazz piano tradition in particular and for creative music in general. De façon à montrer clairement les contributions particulières des différents pianistes, Bill Dobbins a composé un thème basé sur le changement d'accords très connu d'un classique du jazz All Of Me. En appliquant les approches stylistiques des différents pianistes au même thème, chacun devient conscient des éléments subtils mais cependant évocateurs de chaque style individuel.
