Russian Piano Music – Volume 2

Russian Piano Music features 24 new and traditional pieces from Russia ranging from easy to moderately difficult and supplied with extensive comments of special interest to Piano teachers by the renowned pedagogue Linde Grossmann. The Russian school of Piano playing has been acclaimed as one of the best in the world since the late 19th century and has produced countless major artists and teachers. To this day Russian Piano teaching boasts a remarkably high standard even on its lower levels. This is due in part to the solidly conceived structure of the pedagogical repertoire which places the emphasis on Russian music. The most outstanding feature ofthis music is its idiomatic pianistic character which predestines it for instructional purposes. This collection of works by a number of important composers seeks to trace the development of Russian Piano literature from the early 19th Century to the present i.e. from the genesis of an independent Russian Piano style up to our time. Russian Piano Music contains pieces in the major genres from this period: variations dances lyrical and polyphonic pieces character pieces and etudes (sonatas had to be omitted because of their length and level of difficulty). There are well-known pieces and lesser-known works in equal amounts. As to their technical requirements the examples were chosen so as to include as many different challenges as possible (use of the entire keyboard pedal passage work chordal writing octaves polyrhythms polyphonic writing cantabile alternating hands etc.) This book includes pieces by Mussorgsky Shostakovich Rimsky-Korsakov Tchaikovsky and more.

Par NIKOLAEV A.. The Russian Piano Method is testament to a highly developed methodology for teaching piano in Russia, which encourages the student in a lively yet purposeful manner and has gained great recognition in international piano pedagogy. The approach of the two-volume standard work, edited by Julia Suslin, is deliberately based on training student?s perception of sound and is aided by focusing on listening practice, alongside the technical aspects of playing piano. In this way, the student acquires knowledge of the most important elements of piano playing in a short period of time. The two-volume method can be mastered in about two to three years. The Russian Piano Method is now also available as edition with two CDs recorded by Kassel-based pianist Annette Töpel, which support the practical learning of the music. In addition to the version without CDs, which is still available, the CDs of the Russian Piano Method can also be purchased separately. / Date parution : 2023-11-03/ Méthode / Piano

Since most of Lisztâ??s vast output of piano music both original and arranged was obviously intended for the virtuoso it's easy to forget that he also wrote short and beautiful pieces which are technically undemanding. Moreover many of these are far more interesting musically than the typically brilliant works. By way of introducing this less familiar side of a great keyboard composer this edition offers twenty-one non-virtuoso pieces that he wrote between the ages of 38 and 74. They are arranged roughly in chronological order and prepared from original sources by leading scholars including informative introductions and performance notes. This book comprisescollections of pieces which include: Consolations Six Pieces S.172; Vier Kleine Klavierstucke (Four Short Piano Pieces) S.192; and Funf Ungarische Volkslieder (Five Hungarian Folksongs) S.245.
