This
brand-new series is
intended as a guide to
the keyboard music of the
16th to 19th centuries
for pupils of the piano
and the harpsichord, as
well as of other early
keyboard instruments.
Each volume contains
pieces by well-known and
lesser-known composers
from one country or
region. The main purpose
of the series is to
extend the repertoire and
stylistic knowledge of
both pianists and
harpsichordists while
also presenting fine
pieces and typical genres
based on original
sources. Our edition
retains the performance
indications of the
composers' manuscripts
and contemporary
editions. Each volume
includes:- suggestions
for stylistically
appropriate performance
bothon the piano and on
period instruments-
suggested elaborated
versions of some pieces
and excerpts- a fold-out
list of ornamentation
signs and the composers'
own tables of
ornamentation signs-
biographies of the
composers and the sources
of the pieces-
translations of
foreign-language
performance indications.
The two volumes devoted
to French keyboard music
includes close to 50
showy and relatively easy
works - preludes, dances,
suites, rondeaux, and
character pieces - from
the early 16th until the
late 18th century
(ordered
chronologically).This
publication is printed on
high-quality,
age-resistant paper that
is produced in an
environmentally-friendly,
climate-neutral manner
using renewable raw
materials.
Una nuova collana
ideata per offrire una
guida alla scoperta della
musica per pianoforte e
clavicembalo dal
sedicesimo al
diciannovesimo secolo.
Ogni volume include brani
di compositori di una
specifica nazione o area
geografica. L'intento
è amplicare la
conoscenza e il
repertorio di ogni
musicista. Inoltre in
ogni edizione sono
riportati fedelmente i
suggerimenti per
l'interpretazione e le
indicazioni presenti sui
manoscritti originali. I
due volumi dedicati alla
musica francese includono
circa 50 brani
significativi - preludi,
danze, suites, rondò e
altri - che risalgono
all'inizio del sedicesimo
secolo fino alla fine del
diciottesimo secolo,
rigorosamente inordine
cronologico.

The
five short movements for
solo cembalo are brief,
personal prayers that
depict how the subject
manages a range of
feelings and emotions.
The miniatures each
represent a different
emotional state:
reflection, searching,
meditation, agitation,
and resolution. Each is a
small-scale
representation of a
grand, wide-ranging
prayer of
supplication. As a
composer, performer, and
researcher of early
music, writing for
cembalo allows me not
only to express my
special connection to the
instrument and the period
in which it flourished,
but also to present its
contemporary dimensions
as a rich and versatile
instrument. The
piece was composed at the
request of Hagai Yodan,
who performs it with
great skill. Daniel
Akiva is a composer,
performer, and educator
whose performances on
guitar and lute have won
great acclaim. Mr. Akiva
graduated from the Rubin
Academy of Music in
Jerusalem in 1981, where
he studied classical
guitar with Haim Asulin
and composition with Haim
Alexander. In 1987 he
completed his studies at
the Geneva Conservatorium
in Switzerland where he
studied lute with
Jonathon Rubin and
composition with Jean
Ballisa. For many years,
he headed the Music
Department at the WIZO
High School for the Arts
in Haifa, which he
founded in 1986, and
served as the Artistic
Director of the Guitar
Gems Festival from
2006-2019. As part of his
work at WIZO High School,
he has developed a method
for teaching free
improvisation that has
been incorporated into
the music program at the
school. Mr. Akiva has
appeared in concert as a
guitarist and lutist and
given master classes in
Israel, Europe, Russia,
the United States, and
Latin America. Daniel
Akiva’s
compositional output
includes works for solo
instruments, chamber
ensembles, choir, voice
and guitar, piano, and
chamber orchestra. His
works have been recorded
on twelve CDs, the latest
of which, Malchut, was
issued by OR-TAV in
2014. A native of
Haifa whose family has
lived in Israel for over
five hundred years, he
was steeped in the
Sephardic
(Jewish-Spanish)
tradition from his youth.
Much of his compositional
output has been devoted
to a dialogue with the
music of the Sephardic
Jews. Daniel Akiva has
also maintained a
creative dialogue over
many years with the poets
and writers Amnon
Shamash, Rivka Miriam,
and Avner Peretz.
