An Anthology of Piano Music for the Left Hand Alone marks a rare and significant entry to the piano literature as one of the only collections of the oft-neglected left-hand piano repertoire. Serious literature for the left hand alone has a long and storied past. Contained within this volume, the serious advanced pianist will find a wealth of artistically satisfying repertoire for the left hand that will not only strengthen the technical development of the left hand, but also make for impressive showpieces on the recital stage.This volume includes hitherto unpublished gems like Earl Wild's Etude No. 3 for the Left Hand Alone (Based on Gershwin’s The Man I Love) and Ruth Wylie's Soliloquy for Piano, Left Hand, Op. 23, as well as established classics of the repertoire like Godowky's Chopin arrangements, and even modern and contemporary additions like Bartok’s Etude for the Left Hand and Corigliano's Etude No. 1 for the Left Hand Alone.

Alex ander Scriabin (1872-1915) was a Russian composer and pianist. He was one of the most famous musicians within the Russian Empire during his lifetime, but remained virtually unheard-of in the West and was quicklyforgotten after his death. His best known works are his 5 symphonies, but he also wrote hundreds of Preludes and Etudes.
Etu de in C Sharp Minor was one of Scriabin's earliest published works, beingthe first of the Trois Morceaux (Three Morsels) that formed his second opus. It is a delicate work which modulates through several connected keys, and at a similar level to the Etudes of Chopin. A perfect recital item forany pianist who wants to master a piece by an under-performed composer.

One of Scriabin's best-known piano pieces is also one of his very first compositions. He wrote it when he was only fifteen years old; when it appeared in print in 1893, the twenty-one-year-old was still so unknown that he did not receive any remuneration from the publisher. The rapturous etude was soon to enjoy unprecedented success. Marked “Andante”, it is not a virtuoso piece – but nevertheless it is a challenge to master the full-handed chords in legato and to clearly work out the upper and middle parts at the same time. In the Henle Urtext edition, Boris Giltburg's fingerings support this task in an exemplary manner. As an etude of medium difficulty, this earworm offers a wonderful introduction to the piano world of Scriabin!
