BEAUTIFUL ETUDES - Song List (Books One - Four)
Outstanding compilations of piano etudes and exercises from the ever-popular Burgmuller's 25 Progressive Pieces, Op. 100, Czerny's Practical Method for Beginners on the Piano, Op. 599, and Hanon's The Virtuoso Pianist. Etudes are organized into four units according to difficulty and emphasize different aspects of technique and musicianship. Hanon exercises are included within each unit to reinforce the need for finger strength, independence and agility. Information about each composer's life is also provided. Books 2 and 3 include works by Heller.
This collection offers a variety of useful and accessible pieces for students and/or enthusiasts at various stages of musical development. It is beautifully edited and published. The volume begins with a biography and historical overview and ends with useful notes for study and performance for each piece. Features both standard literature and lesser-known gems. Fingerings are included. Highly recommended.
CELEBRATE HELLER - Song List
The Czerny studies for piano and orchestra may be treated as preparatory miniature concertos. The orchestral arrangements and Piano II reductions have recently been arranged by Gero Stover. Dowani International editions are perfect for pianists at any level preparing to play with orchestra. Each Dowani edition comes with a CD offering a full performance of the work and three practice versions at slow, moderate and final "concert" tempos. Thus, the pianist gains experience playing along with the orchestral accompaniment at every point in the learning process. Slow and moderate practice versions offer the orchestral accompaniment played by a piano. The version at final concert tempo is most often recorded with full orchestra. There are no synthesized sounds on a Dowani CD! Two scores for two pianos, four hands are included.
Fingerpower offers short, progressive technic exercises for students of all ages. Equal attention is given to both hands. The series may be used with all piano and keyboard methods.
