Album Of Preludes

Album For The Young features 64 classic Piano pieces inspired by the spirit of childhood. From Johannes Brahms' unashamedly lyrical Wiegenlied through the more cerebral approach of Schumann's album Für die Jugend and the works of contemporary composers such as Lutoslawksi and Richard Rodney Bennett, the music contained in this collection offers many contrasting approaches to the idea of music for the young. Great composers down the ages have been consistently attracted to writing albums about or for the young. Some pieces are suitable for children to play and some are drawn from the nostalgic memory of childhood innocence. Here is a unique collection to treasure, reflecting the variety of both their emotional approaches and the richness of their creative responses. / Piano

Bach and edited here for Piano by Hedwig McEwen and Kethleen Long.The preludes are here grouped in three sets of six each. The first group comes from the Wilhelm Friedemann Bach Notebook compiled by J.S. Bach for the instruction of his eldest son. However Nos. 3 and 6 may have been composed by the son under the guidance of his father. The second group which has been preserved in copies made by his pupils was probably composed by Bach himself. The third group comes from the collection of Johann Peter Kellner - Nos. 1-4 were probably the work of Bach's pupils but no.5 and no.6 wereundoubtedly written by Bach.

Besides being an influential and prolific composer Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750) was one of the great teachers of his day. He was a dedicated master of the keyboard always exploring and expanding his knowledge of the instrument. Technique was of paramount significance to Bach and he was always developing exercises to improve his students??? playing. Bach developed those exercises into the pieces presented in 18 Short Preludes. However these compositions are more than keyboard exercises. They are light airy fun works that reflect Bach???s love of the short simple prelude form. They provide the beginning student with an excellent introduction to the genius ofJ.S. Bach.This edition was carefully and methodically prepared by Willard A. Palmer. An introductory section offers a thorough explanation of trills mordents appoggiaturas and other proper ornamentation applicable to these preludes. This feature helps make this edition of Bach???s 18 Short Preludes the most practical and attractive one available.
