Beethoven's bagatelles are short compositions written over the span of the composer's lifetime from the early to the late periods. Ranging from easy to intermediate level these popular pieces display a wide variety of moods and musical ideas and are favourites with students and accomplished pianists alike.The Romantic era abounded in short compositions for piano: etudes serenades impromptus and other miniatures. Beethoven's term for his refined little piano gems was Kleinigkeiten ? 'small things' ? or bagatelles. Although the public expected symphonic abundance from a composer of his stature Beethoven was reputed to take particular satisfaction in the challengeof distilling his musical ideas into a concentrated form. Reprinted from authoritative editions this collection presents all 27 of the composer's bagatelles including the well-loved 'Für Elise.'Reprinted from authoritative editions.

9 well-known original pieces in progressive order of difficulty with practical comments-Beethoven?s 32 piano sonatas are the ?New Testament? of music according to Hans von Bülow. Our selection here does not take things quite so solemnly because we have also taken the opportunity to show the more ?worldly? side ofthe composer with dances bagatelles the unusual character piece ?Lustig und traurig? (?Happy and sad?) and of course the indestructible ?Für Elise?. As usual in our series ?At the piano? all the pieces are arrangedprogressively from easy to medium level of difficulty. And you do not have to be in awe of Beethoven?s piano sonatas either: the highly Classical sonata in G major (essentially a sonatina) offers an ideal introduction to themany-facetted world of Beethoven?s sonatas. In contrast to this we also show Beethoven the ?poet at the piano? with the first movement of his ?Moonlight? Sonata in c-sharp minor along with the funeral march from the Sonata inA-flat major visionary creations that already point far ahead into the world of Romanticism.

FINER IN MINOR. Par . With beautiful, easy to moderately difficult, familiar and above all not so familiar pieces, our bestseller Finer in Minor has now been a companion for many generations on their way to the wonderful works of major piano literature. In the meantime, the sister edition Greater in Major (EB 8936) expands the sound palette, showing that playing the piano in a major key is, of course, just as beautiful as playing in a minor key! In the course of preparing it, the desire for freshness and renewal of the well-established minor-key edition developed. Editors and publishing house finally gave in and decided on a revised and expanded new edition. The outer appearance has been adapted to its major-key twin, and inside the edition, things look new and different, too. New composers and even more pieces expand the range of minor-key music to include new worlds of sound and feeling. / Date parution : 2022-02-15/ Recueil / Piano
