Sonatinas form a vital part of the teaching material for beginner and intermediate piano students. Compared to the great classical piano sonatas, they are technically and musically simpler and typically shorter. However, they still convey the basic elements of Classical style: the relation of melody to accompaniment, articulation, stylistically authentic playing, and correct interpretation. For the two volumes of Giraffe Piano, the most favoured and instructive of the sonatinas have been chosen. Volume 1 contains simpler pieces and Volume 2 is compromised of moderately difficult ones. Correct interpretation of the pieces is facilitated by added performance and fingeringmarks. Learning is helped along by clear presentation of the score, carefully placed page turns, and by inspiration from colour images showing the keyboard instruments of the 1720-1820 period for which the pieces were written. The most notable of them is the giraffe piano, after which the collection is named. Im Lehrstoff für Anfänger und fortgeschrittene Klavierschüler auf Mittelstufenniveau sind Sonatinen unverzichtbar. Sie sind technisch und musikalisch einfacher und vor allem kürzer als die großen klassischen Klaviersonaten, zugleich kann man an ihnengut die Grundelemente des klassischen Stils, das Verhältnis von Melodie und Begleitung, eine klare, stilgetreue Vortragsweise und die richtige Formgebung üben.
In den zwei Bänden des Giraffenklaviers haben wir die beliebtesten und auch für den Unterricht am meisten geeigneten Sonatinen zusammengestellt. Im 1. Band befinden sich leichte, im 2. mittelschwere Stücke. Den richtigen Vortrag der Stücke unterstützt der Herausgeber mit HIlfe von Artikulations- und Vortragszeichen sowie Fingersätzen. Über das klare Notenbild und die sorgsam gewählten Stellen zum Umblättern hinaus machen farbige Bilder von zeitgenössischen, zwischen 1720 und1820 gebauten Tasteninstrumenten, für die auch Stücke des Bandes geschrieben wurden, ihre Aneignung zu einem besonderen Erlebnis. Das eigentümlichste unter ihnen war das auf dem Umschlag abgebildete Giraffenklavier, das dem Album auch seinen Namen gab.

“The Bird Catalogue by Olivier Messiaenis a set of 7 books with 13 pieces for Piano composed between 1956 and 1958. Each volume refers to a special bird and to the French region where the bird is typically from. The piece does not only describe the bird, it also depicts its surroundings, such as other birds, the landscape of its area, the colours and the temperature. Book 1 - Le Chocard des Alpes (Alpine Chough) - Le Loriot (Golden Oriole) IH Le Merle Bleu (Blue Rock Thrush) Book 2 - Le Traquet Stapazin (Black-Eared Wheatear) Book 3 - La Chouette Hulotte (Tawny Owl) - L'Alouette Lulu (Wood Lark) Book 4 - La Rousserolle Effarvatte (Reed Warbler) Book 5 - L'Alouette Calandrelle (Short-Toed Lark) - La Bouscarle (Cetti's Warbler) Book 6 - Le Merle de Roche (Rock Thrush) Book 7 - La Buse Variable (Buzzard) - Le Traquet Rieur (Black Wheatear) - Le Courlis Cendré (Curlew) As mentioned above, this 7th Volume focuses on the buzzard, the black wheatear and the curlew. The first one, the Buzzard represents ?La matheysine? in the Dauphiny area, the Black Wheatear, the area of Roussillion and the Curlew, the west coast of Brittany. The interpretation of these pieces requires a strong level of ability on Piano (upper advanced), due to some complex techniques required. Olivier Messiaen (1908-1992) was a French organist and composer passionate about Ornithology and one of the most important composers of his century. Inspired by Japanese music, he had a very special way of composing and his work can be identified by its complexity, its diatonic aspect, its harmony with limited transposition, its colour and its additive rhythms. He composed many works related to ornithology and birdsong, including the 'Treatise on rhythm, colour and ornithology' in 7 volumes.â€.
