Children's Pop Piano Book 2 offers the young pianist another interesting voyage around Pop at a somewhat less elementary degree of difficulty. The environment in which young people live now is heavily influenced by Pop culture. It is a form that should be considered as part of a normal instrumental training. Alongside the classical repertoire, Children's Pop Piano provides an entirely different style available to the piano pupil; besides, he or she will enjoy playing the pieces.

In the last year of his life, Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy (1809-1847) composed the six charming Children's Pieces, op. 72 (EB 8317). In contrast to the collections of children's pieces (by Schumann or Reger, for example), these have remained relatively unknown. Admittedly, however, they here and there demand technical and musical accomplishments that are beyond those to be expexted of beginners and belong to an intermediate stage of instruction. In the present edition, minor re-arrangements and cuts (in op. 72 no. 6) are intended to make the music more accessible to a child's understanding. The Songs without Words presented here are musically more demanding. From the total of 48 pieces, I have selected three slow compositions in which simple, beautiful melodie lines are supported by chorale-like piano textures. True performance of these pieces requires clean polyphonic chord playing and a cultivated pedal technique. The selection of pieces in this edition will, it is hoped, stimulate renewed interest in the piano music of Mendelssohn, which is so neglected today.

ISBN 9790080144534. Bach (23 x 30,2 cm) inches. Hungarian, English, German, French. Andras Soos.
In this new volume by Andras Soos (1954) every piece refers to a children's game: Hide-and-seek, Tag, Kite-flying, Swinging, Skating, Playing soldiers, etc. These little character pieces not only stimulate children's imagination but by focussing attention on a particular musical element or an element of playing technique (e.g. triplets, pizzicato, legato, unison, or the use of different tonal systems in the various pieces) they also develop the player's musical sense and instrumental skills.

ISBN 9790080144015. Bach (23 x 30,2 cm) inches. Hungarian, English, German, French. Lajos Papp.
Lajos Papp, the author of innumerable popular pedagogical works, this time offers the youngest string players technically really easy little orchestral pieces that can nevertheless be successful concert items for more advanced students. The cycle of eight short pieces can be performed not only as a whole but in any kind of selection or grouping. The title refers both to the medieval knights' tournaments, which always stimulate children's imagination, and also to children's games that imitate them and bring them back to life. The work is based not on a single coherent story but the knights' life in general, with its traditional accoutrements and characters. The titles of the pieces are: Knighting Ceremony in the Castle Chapel - The Lord of the Castle - The Black Knight - The Beautiful Damsel of the Castle, by the Well - Page's Dance - The Scarlet Steed - The Battle of the Noble Knights - Festive Procession.

For several years, Tio, The Little Keyboard Man , has been looking over the shoulders of younger and older piano beginners as hero and helper. Used to complement schoolwork, the little Tio pieces help to recreate and deepen what has been learned in other contexts. Whether now as a single player or paired as a duet, whether relaxed at Christmas or bold in an expanded tonal space - Tio is always on the spot and has packed the appropriate music. After five volumes, a sixth and final volume will complete the piano series. A Goodbye Song For the sixth and closing volume of her Tio series, the piano pedagogue and artist Kerstin Strecke has compiled a selection of German and European children's songs. Presented primarily as supplementary literature from the first piano lesson, the volume even includes several pieces in two levels of difficulty and for four-hand playing. Song texts are given in German or in their original language and freely translated into German. A table of contents of the songs, in English, can be found at the end of the volume, lovingly illustrated by the author herself. Small, interspersed additional assignments also support a first understanding of music theory in the young keyboard artists.
