Assemblé par le compositeur, le recueil est accompagné d'une préface écrite pour cette occasion. Il présente les 18 titres de son album Night, inspiré par le crépuscule à New York où il réside.

Tout comme les \'Gymnopédies\', les \'Gnossiennes\' renvoient à des traditions de la Grèce antique. Probablement stimulé par l\'Exposition universelle de 1889 à Paris, Satie introduisit dans ces pièces des ornements orientaux. Très sensible aux tendances musicales en vogue à l\'époque, il relia entre eux des éléments exotiques, des influences provenant de la musique de cabaret, ainsi que, bien entendu, ses propres idées et en tira quelque chose d\'absolument nouveau. Quelques-unes des \'Gnossiennes\' surprennent par d\'énigmatiques fragments de texte introduits entre les portées. D\'après Satie, il ne faut pas les lire à haute voix, car il sont là pour créer une secrète complicité entre le compositeur et l\'interprète - un défi créatif que nous transmettons, grâce à notre édition Urtext, aux exécutants d\'aujourd\'hui. / Piano / Chanson En Séparée

Twenty-Four Contemporary Pieces For Solo Piano includes a diverse selection of works from 16 of the world's leading composers. The 24 pieces featured in this collection represent the best of contemporary classical Piano music being composed today. As well as being a compilation of fantastically enjoyable compositions, the book also features interesting notes by each composer to accompany their music.These Contemporary Pieces For Solo Piano are at once accessible and musically inspiring, featuring some of the most talented and respected composers and their most definitive contributions to Piano music. Perhaps the biggest name included here is that of Ludovico Einaudi, whose wide reputation is a result of his masterful ability to pull at heartstrings, exemplified in his works Berlin Song, The Earth Prelude and Waterways, all of which are included here. Other giants of contemporary classical music are included in the collection, names like Philip Glass (Etude #11), Max Richter (Horizon Variations and Vladimir's Blues) and Hauschka, whose Can You Dance For Me, Early In The Park and Until It's Dawn perfectly encapsulate the emotive characteristics of all the pieces in this book. Composers like Nils Frahm, Ólafur Arnalds, Dustin O'Halloran and Jóhann Jóhannsson evolved from a similar school that favours building atmosphere with hypnotic arpeggiation in composition, explaining why these composers are often used to great effect in film soundtracks.Other inclusions in Twenty-Four Contemporary Pieces For Solo Piano are simply too important to have left out, namely Nico Muhly's Hudson Cycle, two pieces by Joby Talbot as well as Tarik O'Regan's Lines Of Desire. The beauty of the songs here speak for themselves, but the composers have also written brief notes that preface each of the pieces, giving fascinating insight into either the composition itself or particular playing notes. Featuring some of the best compositions by the most respected and creative musicians writing today, the Twenty-Four Contemporary Pieces For Solo Piano within this collection are an exciting prospect for any pianist looking for some wonderfully inspiring music to learn and play. / Piano

Maurice Ravel (1875-1937) is often considered after the death of Debussy in 1918 to be the leading French composer of the 1920’s and 30’s. Earlier in his career he had caused consternation in the highly conservative pre-war French musical establishment with his unmistakable and highly original style.His most famous work is his Bolero which marks the pinnacle of his compositional career. Commissioned as a single-movement orchestral ballet in 1928 by Ida Rubenstein Ravel himself is said to have commented on it by saying: 'I've written only one masterpiece...Unfortunate ly there's no music init.'Bolero has been re-arranged many times most notably for Torvill and Dean in their world-record ice skating routine. This arrangement is for solo Piano.

De même que les `Trois morceaux en forme de poire` sont constitués en fait de sept pièces, les `Trois Gnossiennes`² d'Erik Satie sont issues d'un ensemble de sept compositions. Inspiré d'une visite au pavillon de musiques exotiques à l'Exposition Universelles de 1889, le mode gnossien a tellement séduit le compositeur - pourtant coutumier du renouvellement perpétuel dans chacune de ses oeuvres - qu'il y est revenu par sept fois en l'espace de huit ans. S'ajoutant aux six Gnossiennes déjà parues jusqu'ici, la 7e Gnossienne est publiée dans ce recueil pour la première fois.

Par BALMER YVES. En travaillant sur une « matière pianistique » abstraite, le cycle Piano Material se focalise sur l'expérience de l'écoute du son, de la résonance et des potentialités sonores infiniment variées, subtiles et raffinées du piano. Le son est ainsi une matière qu'il s'agit de délicatement sculpter par de multiples qualités d'attaque, par un contrôle fin et graduel des différentes pédales, par un dosage sensible de l'intensité de chacune des notes des larges volutes harmoniques qui parcourent la partition pour créer tour à tour des scintillements lumineux ou des masses sombres et minérales. Les pièces Piano Material II, III et IV sont une commande de la Communauté d'agglomération de Versailles Grand Parc pour les élèves du CRR de Versailles. / Date parution : 2022-06-08/ Recueil / Piano

for Piano. Par SCHWAEN KURT. Drei Präludien zu Grafiken von Herbert Sandberg (KSV 271) by Kurt Schwaen is an 8-minute work for solo piano. The three Preludes were inspired by Herbert Sandberg\'s graphic cycle Der Weg (\'The Way\'), which deals with fascism. Kurt Schwaen was an extremely prolific composer whose style could be classified between Bartók, Stravinsky and Hindemith. The Three Preludes for Piano are also oriented towards this neo-classical attitude and, despite the use of new compositional techniques, always remain catchy and easy to receive. The premiere took place on 5 May 1965 in the Kupferstichkabinett of the Berlin State Museums on the occasion of the exhibition opening of Herbert Sandberg\'s graphic cycle Der Weg. The performer was Wilhelm Gonnermann. This edition (EP 5418) is the piano edition of this work. / Date parution : 2022-09-07/ Répertoire / Piano
