Arrangeur: Mike Cornick. Par ELGAR EDWARD / CORNICK MIKE (ARR.). Although often regarded as quintessentially English in style, Elgar's music is undeniably deeply rooted in the German Romantic tradition. Elgar's gift for the creation of melody, often sequential and frequently including one of his most familiar 'fingerprints' - the falling seventh - might well be the most obvious attraction in his music. But underpinning those melodies is a sophisticated harmonic vocabulary which often reveals that wider Germanic influence, especially in moments of drama. It is hoped that this set of piano duet arrangements, suitable for intermediate-level players and beyond, will continue to bring new performers to these Elgar favourites, whether they are simply playing for their own enjoyment or preparing for concert performance, and that they will find much to reward their efforts./ Répertoire / Piano 4 Mains

Par MOLODYNSKA-WHEELER MARTA. The name of this collection reflects the diverse character and international provenance of the pieces. Each of them is a ?representative? of a different country and a different musical culture, and therefore provides an excellent opportunity for performers to face different musical genres. Poligrajki are intended for young pianists who want to improve their skills in the field of playing in a piano duo. When writing them, my aim was to create compositions where the technical and interpretation requirements will be well-suited for the abilities of piano students in music schools and will constitute a teaching material referring to the theoretical knowledge of the stylistic differences across the countries. I hope the performers will enjoy Poligrajki and that their sounds will reach every corner of the world! Marta Molodynska-Wheeler / Date parution : 2022-12-12/ Recueil / Piano 4 Mains
