Featuring songs by the renowned composer and master of the prepared Piano Volker Bertelmann AKA Hauschka Solo Pieces is a wonderful compilation of some of his most beautifully engrossing and hypnotic compositions as well as some fantastic illustrations and writings. A unique figure in the contemporary classical world Hauschka's works defy categorisation while remaining uniquely effective.

Somesongs in Solo Pieces are for natural Piano but others include instructions on how to prepare your own Piano using everyday materials like foil greaseproof paper rubber wedges or erasers. The spirit of Solo Pieces is experimentation something that Hauschka has always embraced. You don't need to prepare your Piano or you could use different materials to create a unique performance of the work.

Known professionally as Hauschka, composer Volker Bertelmann has catapulted himself into the top tier of instrumental composers. This is proven, not least, by the Oscar nomination which he received for his soundtrack to the2016 film Lion.
In his latest album A Different Forest, released on 8 February 2019 at Sony Classical, Hauschka takes the forest as a contrast to the urban life. The names of the pieces, such as 'Talking To My Father',testify equally that those natural experiences are metaphorical of the important things in life.
For this album Hauschka renounces entirely his prepared Piano. The existential questions which he musically poses, however,donot lose their intensity, but rather, without the alienation by electronic elements, gain urgency.
In addition to the 13 LP tracks, this songbook for Piano also contains three exclusive arrangements of previouslyunreleased songs: 'Collecting Stones', 'Loosing Directions' and 'Misty Day'.
