Par GRAINGER PERCY ALDRIDGE. Between 1920 and 1940 Grainger published a loose series of piano transcriptions under the title of 'Free Settings of Favourite Melodies' in order to make a wide audience acquainted with the music of great composers. Five pieces that prove his feel of tone colours and his highly developed understanding of the piano and its possibilities, have been included in this volume: 'Hornpipe' from George Frideric Handel's Water Music, 'Cradle Song' (Wiegenlied) Op. 49/4 by Johannes Brahms, a song by John Dowland: 'Now, O now I need must part', and two songs by Gabriel Fauré who was one of Grainger's examples in music: 'Nell' Op. 18/1, and 'Après un Rêve' Op. 7/1./ Répertoire / Piano

Full Score-The songs and dances of the Americas born in the mountains jungles rivers and plains under the shadow of pyramids and temples nourished by the winds and the ocean waves of adventur courage suffering and endurance finally grew up in the cities of the New Continent. And ironically they conquered the collective soul of the whole earth. This concerto was inspired by those pianists (Scott Joplin Art Tatum Oscar Peterson Horacio Salgan Luis Eca and many others) who changed the face of popular music in the Americas. Like the great Romantic virtuoso-composers (I think of Chopin with his mazurkas waltzes and impromptus) their ideas and their fingers became one single entity one unique form of musical expression. Movements: I. Blues II. Tango III. Carnival
