Par REINECKE CARL HEINRICH CARSTEN. Le présent volume contient une sélection d'oeuvres pour piano, avec des pièces pour enfants et des sonates modérément difficiles. Le style de Reinecke, qui d'un point de vue esthétique se classe dans le conservatisme, s'inspire des modèles classiques viennois, comme Haydn et Mozart. Parmi ses élèves, on compte Max Bruch, Edvard Grieg et Leoš Janácek. Malgré ses succès en tant que pianiste, compositeur et pédagogue, Carl Reinecke a subi le destin de nombreux grands musiciens et est aujourd'hui en grande partie tombé dans l'oubli. Afin de changer cela, ce volume a pour objectif de présenter un échantillon significatif des compositions pour piano d'un grand romantique allemand. / Niveau : Moyen à Avancé / Répertoire / Piano
