Gregory Stone has transcribed these three selected preludes for one piano-four hands. For much of his life George Gershwin sought to integrate the worlds of jazz and classical music. These pieces are not jazz improvisations but they do show something of the style of his own playing. Gershwin had intended to compose a set of twelve a sort of jazz Wohltemperierte Clavier but his unexpected death from a brain tumour at the age of 38 prevented this. At least seven survive (others may have ended up as songs) and this set of three as published form a satisfying unit. The first opens with a blue-note riff which forms the basis of the first theme.Contrasting material follows making use of a distinctive repeated note figure then the first idea reappears in a quasi-orchestral climax. The second prelude shows a curious kinship with Chopin???s A minor Prelude with its eerie accompaniment and hypnotic melody. The third exploits a similar major/minor ambivalence but dextrous syncopation gives it driving rhythmic energy.

Chopin was the only great composer who wrote almost entirely for the piano and his works are of such a uniformly high quality that they are all absolutely essential in the repertoire of any aspiring pianist. The Preludes and Etudes are exquisitely beautiful examples of his genius. They are reproduced here from the authoritative Mikuli edition and available in this one-volume publication.

The urtext edition of Chopin's preludes edited by Norbert Mullemann with fingering by Hermann Keller.

Pedagogical in nature these editions offer insightful interpretive suggestions pertinent fingering and historical and stylistic commentary.The name Frédéric Chopin (1810-1849) is synonymous with the Piano. Indeed every one of his compositions includes the instrument. His Preludes several of which are of only moderate difficulty show superb polish and inventive detail. Shaped by the tastes of the Parisian aristocratic salon these pieces make the most of a pianist's technical and musical abilities both in passages of virtuosity and in the variety of possibilities for emotional expression.

This is the Edition Peters Urtext New Critical Edition of The Complete Chopin. This book contains the Preludes from Opus 28 and Opus 45.

Twenty-Three favourite Pieces in Piano arrangements. Fun-to-play pedagogically sound arrangements include the theme from the 'Raindrop' Prelude 'Minute' Waltz the charming 'Lullaby' and melodic highlights from the most familiar Preludes Mazurkas Waltzes Impromptus and Etudes.

Nocturnes-Time and again Chopin succeeded in giving different Piano music genres their own individual characters whether etudes preludes waltzes scherzi or Nocturnes. The Irishman John Field had alreadycomposed over 20 nocturnes which presumably greatly influenced Chopin. The latter continued to develop the light song-like Piano writing and created works whose dreamy longing atmosphere came to embodyChopin???s music. Our volume contains the works that were published during Chopin???s lifetime as well as ones which were only published posthumously including the famous Lento con gran espressione in c sharpminor in two authentic versions.

24 short pieces in all keys-Lyric Preludes is an introduction to the whole Romantic period -- from Chopin and Schumann to Brahms and Debussy. Like Chopin Gillock has written 24 preludes featuring all major and minor keys. But his preludes aren't just imitations of other composer's styles they are valid original works.
