Jazz Chords On Piano -2 by Tormod Vinsand (2017). This book is a follow-up on Jazz Chords on Piano (WH32971) and it is definitely an advantage if you have familiarised yourself with the techniques and terms used in Jazz Chords on Piano. There are many ways in which to play jazz on a piano. In Jazz Chords on Piano I describe some guidelines for how to prepare accompaniment and melody playing but admittedly there are of course many other ways to play or other techniques to use. In Jazz Chords on Piano - 2 I have chosen to focuson four typical techniques: Part 1 - Playing Arpeggioin left handPart 2 - 4-stacked chords in a piano movementPart 3 - Left-hand chordsPart 4 - Overlying triads when accompanying To illustrate the various techniques I have made compositions that are stylistically adjusted so that the various techniques make musical sense and are playable.

Par PERKOWSKI PIOTR. Easy Pieces for Piano by Piotr Perkowski is a collection of nine compositions first published by PWM in the '40s and' 50s of the 20th century. The pieces are intended for first-grade students of a music school, but not for the very beginning of their adventure with the piano, but for the following years of study (grades 4-6). Recipients will meet in a set of varied compositions that allow you to practice legato, staccato, fast rhythmic flows and irregular rhythms at various speeds. The titles of the compositions refer to simple musical forms, children's games and the everyday life of the youngest.

The 'Romanian Folk Dances' undoubtedly rank amongst Bartók's most popular compositions. The earliest version is scored for piano (1915) and was published by Universal Edition in 1918. ln the preparation of this revised edition the last previous printed edition was compared with the available manuscript sources which include editions marked by Béla Bartók with corrections. His corrected copies of the violin-piano transcription (prepared by Zoltán Székely) as well as the orchestra arrangement were also considered.The major correction concerns metronome numbers. At various times since the work's first publicationthe composer slightly revised some of these tempi. ln the composer's lifetime the last printed editions of both violin-piano and piano versions produced during World War II bear corrections in his file copies the two being in agreement with each other as well as with the marked duration of each dance. The tempi found in these printed editions believed to be the composer's last word on the subject appear in this revised edition.' (Peter Bartók)

His work, both as a musician and as a film composer, has been critically acclaimed worldwide, earning him a BAFTA award for Best Original Score as well as Grammy and Emmy nominations. Over the course of his career, he has released five albums as well as dozens of EPs, collaborations, and various projects. Ólafur\'s live shows are often quite unorthodox for a neo-classical composer and have sold out many of the world\'s most prestigious live venues. His last album, some kind of peace (2020), earned him two Grammy nominations and reached the UK Top 40. The songbook \'some kind of peace - for piano\' contains new arrangements of the 10 songs from Ólafur\'s album of the same name as well as lavish artwork and liner notes.
