Classical Piano Solos - Fifth Grade: Piano: Instrumental Album

John Thompson's Modern Course-This fifth volume in the Classical Piano Solos series features 19 original pieces from the masters suitable for pianists at a Grade 5 standard. This series was compiled to correlate loosely with the Modern Course method and can be used to supplement any teaching method or situation. This volume features a mix of well-known pieces such as Beethoven's Moonlight sonata (1st mvmt) and Rachmaninoff's famous C-sharp prelude as well as lesser-known gems from Samuel Coleridge-Taylor ( They Will Not Lend Me a Child ) Anatoly Lyadov ( Prelude in B Minor ) and Rameau ( Les niais de Sologne ). All four mainperiods are represented. Editor's note: The final section of the Rachmaninoff prelude is presented on one visually-accessible page; the Chopin waltz (Op. 69/1) is based on original autographs rather than the oft-performed Fontana edition.
