Les trois célèbres Intermezzi op. 117 peuvent être considérés comme l'incarnation de l'oeuvre tardive pour piano de Brahms. Clara Schumann confessait: 'Dans ces pièces, j'entends enfin à nouveau une vie musicale s'emparer de mon âme et je les joue avec ardeur'. Comme bien souvent, Brahms s'exprima de manière laconique. Bien qu'il considérait les trois Intermezzi comme des 'berceuses', il en refusa officiellement le titre: 'il faudrait alors mettre 'Berceuse d'une mère malheureuse' ou d'un célibataire inconsolable'. La nouvelle édition de ces pièces de difficulté moyenne (degré 5/6) est désormais revue d'après le texte de la nouvelle édition complète des oeuvres de Brahms et doigtée par Andreas Boyde. / Piano

Par WILSON CHRISTOPHER. This is part of a series of inter-related instrumental workbooks for keyboard, guitar, bass guitar and percussion. Planned so that concepts are carefully introduced, consolidated and extended, this is the second of three workbooks each containing twenty-five units. They support and complement the teacher's resource through an innovative approach that encourages a creative attitude towards learning an instrument. Many sections contain work on improvisation and sight-reading and alternate units provide an ensemble piece, arranged for all the instruments covered by this project. Each book covers the same curriculum requirements regardless of instrument, however, this book acts both as a classroom resource and as an introduction to the art of keyboard technique./ Méthode / Clavier
