Despite its song-like melody, this is most decidedly not a piece of music of quiet and peaceful tones. A Ballad for Ruby has an element of contrast and suspense that brings it to life. This composition calls for emotion, expressiveness, and homogeneous ensemble playing.

Born on the occasion of the Chopin's Chopin Competition in 1949, on the occasion of Chopin's 100th anniversary, Laks' ballad captures the spirit of Chopin's melodious, harmonious and rhythmic thinking, without the impression of plagiarism. The form of the ballad comes to the idea of ??exploring the entire range between the most tender lyricism and eruptive drama that is so characteristic of Chopin's piano style. The technically sophisticated 8-minute piece is ideally suited for recitals reflecting the importance of Chopin's music as a symbol of the Polish nation in the 19th and 20th centuries.

In his Ballades Chopin created a new, typically Romantic, genre of piano music. Works of this type were not known in earlier instrumental music. Volume I of the National Edition contains all four of Chopin's Ballades, Of the variants in musical notation, those designated 'ossia' were marked in this way by Chopin himself or inscribed in his hand in pupils' copies; while those without the indication result from textual divergences in authentic copies or from difficulties in reading the text in an unambiguous way.

The jazz ballad provides our greatest opportunity for lyrical expression and represents the surest way to the musical heart. Traditionally, it has been the testing ground for a performer's worth, yet it is largely missing in our present musical culture and is seldom addressed in learning situations. Jerry Coker is recognized for his ability to create inspired ballad performances, and his many students of the past and present know that he also has the ability to share his unique understanding of the jazz ballad with others. The Jazz Ballad---Experience Ultimate Expression is a comprehensive study guiding the reader, step by step, through the necessary topics and activities that lead to heightened understanding and enhanced performance. Topics include criteria for tune selection, modification possibilities, rhythm section concepts for ballad playing, options for introductions and endings, appropriate ways to approach the melody and subsequent improvisation, and consideration of spiritual and attitudinal preparation. The accompanying CD provides aural clarifications of the ideas presented in the text, as well as a play-along track that features a fantastic rhythm section.

The composition was written for the Ensemble Liaison and recorded on their CD Epiphany. It is also available in a 2017 version without marimba (BB 3626).

Whoever pursues piano playing as a hobby mostly focusses on two things: playing from music, with as wide a range of works from classical, pop and jazz music as possible, and playing without the book, i.e. the ability to accompany melodies with chords, play songs by ear and improvise freely. In this volume, both topics are dealt with thoroughly and systematically. Whereas most piano methods prefer either classical or popular music, both kinds of music are well-balanced herein.Clearly structured chapters cover a variety of interesting topics: the Baroque, Classical and Romantic eras, popular piano styles (e.g. ragtime, boogie, rock 'n' roll, pop ballad), the blues and the genres of opera, operetta and ballet.
