He had a particular feeling for the tonal finesse and riches the instrument offered. The pieces in this volume which include some works published for the first time date from Vierne’s early years and are in the tradition of the Romantic character piece. In both their harmoniclanguage and their elegant feeling for sonority they reveal Vierne’s individual musical language. These pieces are mainly of medium technical difficulty and are therefore suitable for a broader spectrum of pianists.The editor Brigitte de Leersnyder is a pianist and piano teacher. She has researched Louis Vierne’s piano music for many years and has published a comprehensive and highly-regarded monograph on the composer.
