This collection provides a historical selection of 40 original Piano pieces which have been influenced by extra-musical incidents or ideas: It begins with scenes from nature describes the fascination of rain portrays the figure of the shepherd wanders to 'moon' 'sleep' and 'dream' and concludes with the theme of 'movement' which is visible and audible either at sporting activities and in technical devices or on travels.It is quite fascinating to see that composers such as Burgmüller or Grieg Beethoven Debussy R. Schumann Tchaikovsky Villa-Lobos Satie Couperin Martinu Mendelssohn or Mussorgsky and many others see and musically describe the same themes quitedifferently.ContentIn the Woods: - Burgmüller Awakening in the Woods (from: 18 Studies Op. 109)Daquin Rondeau 'Le Coucou'Tschaikowsky The Lark's Song (from: The Seasons Op. 37a)Janácek The Barnowl has not Flown Away!

9 well-known original pieces in progressive order of difficulty with practical comments-Beethoven?s 32 piano sonatas are the ?New Testament? of music according to Hans von Bülow. Our selection here does not take things quite so solemnly because we have also taken the opportunity to show the more ?worldly? side ofthe composer with dances bagatelles the unusual character piece ?Lustig und traurig? (?Happy and sad?) and of course the indestructible ?Für Elise?. As usual in our series ?At the piano? all the pieces are arrangedprogressively from easy to medium level of difficulty. And you do not have to be in awe of Beethoven?s piano sonatas either: the highly Classical sonata in G major (essentially a sonatina) offers an ideal introduction to themany-facetted world of Beethoven?s sonatas. In contrast to this we also show Beethoven the ?poet at the piano? with the first movement of his ?Moonlight? Sonata in c-sharp minor along with the funeral march from the Sonata inA-flat major visionary creations that already point far ahead into the world of Romanticism.
