Piano Repertoire Album 2 (Royal Conservatory of Music Celebration)
Description:
This is a comprehensive collection of works from the Baroque, Classical, Romantic, and 20th-century style periods for the advanced level pianist. The selection of literature is particularly appealing and includes some contemporary works not often heard. This album presents compositions especially suited for building technique as well as musicality relevant to the repertoire. What is particularly interesting about this volume is the fact that contemporary composers are included as well as the old standbys. This combination is especially refreshing.There is one page of information about the series, about the editing, and about performance practice. This information is printed in English and French.Table of Contents: LIST A Telemann: Fantasia in D majorWF Bach: Minuet in G majorSperontes (pseudo.): Minuet in D majorBach: Bourree in D minorHaydn: QuadrilleSteibelt: Aria in a minorSchubert: LandlerClementi: WaltzSchubert: EcossaiseScarlatti, A: Aria in D minorBeethoven: German danceLIST B Schumann: Melody, Opus 68, no. 1Gurlitt: Theme & VariationsGlinka: Russian polkaNiamath: PenguinsPoole: FleasBerkovich: MazurkaArr.
