Book Description
To describe the music of César Franck is like trying to describe a delicious dessert; you must experience it for yourself! Although everyone has their own preference, the music of César Franck is continually inspiring for the listener or performer. Most of the selections in this book are unknown, preserved by Frank's biographer and former student, Vincent D’Indy, and are best suited for intermediate to advanced students. For composers, finding the recipe for each of the ten pieces is a musical treasure hunt. Composed by Frank at the age of twelve, the "Earliest Composition" is a wonderful example of counterpoint. “Canon” moves from the left to the right hand while the harmonizing melody becomes its own canon with respect to the original melody. Readers may also be familiar with “Les Plaintes d’Une Poupee” (or “The Puppets Complaint”); one of Franck's more well-known compositions. “Danse Lente” has a lovely melody that changes hands, culminating with the two melodies uniting in a dreamy, dramatic sense. These piano selections are presented as examples of César Franck’s legacy for piano teachers and students of all ages. This collection will be valuable for recitals, programs, and your own enjoyment. Includes access to online audio of the author performing each piece.

Selected Piano Works for Four Hands
Author: Franz Schubert
Publisher: Courier Corporation
ISBN: 0486235297
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 289
Book Description
Franz Schubert's piano pieces for four hands are among the most varied and significant works in the entire repertoire. Schubert wrote more of these works than any other major composer, and generations of teachers, students, and concert musicians have enjoyed their enduring beauty and vitality. Included in this volume are 15 of Schubert's best and most popular titles, taken from the definitive Breitkopf and Hartel "Schubert-Gesammtausgabe." Composed between 1818 and 1828, they include the tremendously popular Military Marches, Op. 51 (of which the D Major is a striking and familiar melody); the famed "Grand Duo" Sonata in C Major, Op. 140; the Fantasia in F Minor, Op. 103 (written only a few months before Schubert's death, it is one of the most famous and elegantly expressive works in the genre); Variations in A-flat Major on an Original Theme, Op. 35; Andantino Varie in B Minor on French Motifs, Op. 84, No. 1; Fugue in E Minor, Op. 152; and a delightful array of landler, polonaises, and variations. The 23 separate pieces have been selected so that pianists of virtually any level can find works to match their needs. They range in difficulty from beautifully sculpted marches that beginners can play, to works requiring maturity and great technical skill. This volume has been specially designed as a playing edition. The noteheads are large and easily readable at the piano, and wide margins allow plenty of room for written notes, fingerings, analysis, etc. Of special importance is the addition of measure numbers, placed on alternate staves, which allow the pianists to find their place quickly while rehearsing. For playing, study, or simply listening along with records, this volume will be an admirable addition to your music library."
