36 Original Piano PiecesInstrument : pianoNombre de Pages : 72The music teacher and pianist Monika Twelsiek adds a new selection of piano works around the subject of Night and Dreams to the Piano Classics series. At any time, the night was a theme in literature, art and music. 'Night' and 'Dream' are emotional images which evoke vastly different emotions in different people. The night is a place of peace and security, of longing and love, of secrets, imagination and dreams. But night also means strangeness, loneliness, fear, danger and crime. The collection 'Night and Dreams' with works from the Romantic piano literature to new contemporary sounds tries to capture all of these nightly emotions. Apart from a plethora of folk-song-like lullabies, numerous fantastic dream pieces and descriptions of dangerous night scenes have been added to the collection. An alluring mixture of imagination and reality, for advanced piano pupils and lovers of piano music.Content : P. Zilcher: Lullaby, op. 93/4 - G. Nevada: A Little Dreamy - A.

Une Suite composée en 1920, en trois mouvements : 1/Presto, 2/Andante et 3/ Vif.
En janvier 1920, le critique Henri Collet a appelé Poulenc et cinq de ses amis compositeurs, le `Groupe des Six`, par analogie avec les Cinq Russes. Ce fut une marque pratique pour se faire de la publicité et Jean Cocteau, leur auto-proclamé porte-parole, fut rapide à saisir toutes les opportunités. Mais chacun des six insistait sur le fait que ce n'était qu'un groupe d'amis, sans but musical commun.
La Suite pour Piano de Poulenc et ses Impromptus pour piano se mariaient parfaitement avec les dires de Cocteau - ils sont clairs, insouciants et amusants. Mais les Promenades écrites en 1921 pour Artur Rubinstein, correspondent au côté plus sérieux de Poulenc, qui avait déjà du mal à se faire entendre.
Cette célébration en dix mouvements de différents modes de transport explore un certain nombres de nouvelles techniques musicales qui intriguaient les compositeurs dans les années 20. Le language qui en resortait devait être difficile à comprendre pour les pianistes de l'époque. / [Suite for Piano] / Classique / Partition /

Fauré's four 'Valses-Caprices' (1882/83'1894) demonstrate various forms of his treatment of the waltz in combination with the free form of the caprice.'
The composer drew his inspiration for his 'Valses-Caprices' in the first place from works such as Liszt's 'Valse-Impromptu' and his 'Valse à capriccio' and the famous 'Valse-Caprice' by Anton Rubinstein.'
