Par YEAGER JEANINE. The works found in Classic Echoes are inspired by the great music of Baroque, Classical, Romantic and Contemporary periods. They reflect the varied styles and harmonies of music by the great composers.

The contrast in texture, energy and mood is clearly apparent in these stylistic expressions. BAROQUE: ?ala Bach? and ?A Bit of Baroque? CLASSICAL: ?Sicilienne,? ?Aria,? ?Sarabande? and ?Scherzo in C? ROMANTIC: ?Valse Romantique,? ?Pas de deux,? ?Lament,? and ?Prelude in D? CONTEMPORARY: ?Toccata in A Minor?

Par . ?Showpieces? provide opportunities for pianists to display their skills and elicit the ?Wow!? response from an audience. The anticipation of acquiring virtuosity is highly motivating for piano students because there is a special thrill in experiencing the sound and feel of playing showpieces, as well as having the admiration of listeners! The music of Ovation, Books 1 and 2 was selected with this in mind. Book Two, for the advanced grades, continues to develop a virtuoso technique with works by Mendelssohn, Chopin, Grieg, MacDowell, Dohnanyi, Rachmaninoff, and Bartók. / Date parution : 2022-11-08/ Recueil / Piano

Par RYAN KATHLEEN. This intermediate-level sonatina is aptly named ?Playtime.? The first movement (?Lighthearted?) is articulate and has rhythmic twists in going from 4/4 to 3 3 2/8 time that are indeed playful to perform and hear. The second movement (?Wistful?) is a thoughtful ballad in 6/8 time. Jazzy and contemporary sounding swing rhythms define the concluding third movement (?Mischievous?). / Date parution : 2022-11-08/ Recueil / Piano

Selections from Preparatory Method For Piano Opus. 101. Par BEYER FERDINAND. Ferdinand Beyer (1803-1863) was a German pianist, piano teacher, and composer. He wrote one of the first comprehensive piano methods, Vorschule im Klavierspiel (Preparatory Method for Piano), Op. 101. Published first in 1860, Beyer?s method is still in use in many parts of the world today, and it significantly influenced methods which came after it. Although its didactic style seems pedantic when compared to the many attractive features of modern methods, the Op. 101 contains a wealth of excellent pieces for late elementary and early intermediate piano students of any age. The editor has selected 24 pieces for this collection, which may be used in conjunction with any course of study, and are suitable for recitals, auditions, and festivals. / Date parution : 2022-11-08/ Recueil / Piano

Par SCHUBERT FRANZ. Working from urtext sources, which have few or no markings, the editor has added fingering, dynamics, articulations, expression marks, and even tempo/ character markings to aid musical interpretation and performance. These are lively and articulate Viennese waltzes, generally twice as fast as other types of waltzes. Any waltz from this set may be played individually, or several may be performed as a group. However, they are wonderfully successful when all twelve are played consecutively as a complete cycle. Perfect for teenage students and adults who are beginning to conquer playing successive octaves. / Date parution : 2022-02-10/ Répertoire / Piano

Moonlight. Par BEETHOVEN LUDWIG VAN. This sonata, Beethoven?s 14th, is the most familiar of all 32 sonatas that he composed. The three movements make a strong contrast in character, from the contemplative Adagio Sostenuto first movement, to the light and dance-like Allegretto, to the virtuoso and dramatic final Presto. Spacious and clean notation and practical fingering make this edition ideal for amateur pianists and for teachers to use with students. / Date parution : 2022-02-10/ Répertoire / Piano
