Der Nachfolgeband 'Flowing Piano Songs' von Theresia Prelog bietet 18 leichte bis mittelleichte, romantische Klavierstücke für Herz und Sinne. Die gefühlvollen Kompositionen eignen sich hervorragend als Ergänzung und Auflockerung zu einer klassischen Klavierschule und wenden sich an Spielerinnen und Spieler ab dem 3. und 4. Unterrichtsjahr und jeder Altersstufe. Beim Spielen von 'Flowing Piano Songs' besteht die Möglichkeit für ein paar kostbare Augenblicke alles andere hinter sich zu lassen und sich dem Dahinfließen der Musik voll und ganz hinzugeben. Körper, Geist und Seele entspannen sich und tanken neue Energie. Hinter jedem Stück steht zugleich ein bestimmter technischer und musikalischer Aspekt, der beim Spielen ganz unbewusst und mühelos geübt wird, auch wenn das klangliche Erlebnis im Vordergrund steht. Trainiert werden unter anderem die Geläufigkeit in schnellen melodischen Figuren, die Differenzierung des Anschlages zwischen Melodie und Begleitung, erste Verzierungen, das Ablösen der Hände sowie die Entwicklung des Gefühls für eine musikalische Phrase. Die Tempobezeichnungen und Metronomangaben sind lediglich Richtwerte und können nach persönlichem Geschmack angepasst werden. Die Hörbeispiele dienen als Lernhilfe und sind auch als 'Soundtrack' für unterwegs ein wahrer Genuss. Wir wünschen viele entspannende Momente mit den 'Flowing Piano Songs'.

Quadri Morandi (2014) ties together two essential themes of Kai Niminen's (b. 1953) compositional style: guitar and a subject inspired by Italy. The strong presence of the guitar in his works is natural since he is in an actively performing guitarist himself, and guitar works indeed play a significant role in his oeuvre. Moreover, he has written plenty of orchestral music; for instance two symphonies, numerous concertos, and chamber music. In the field of Finnish music he is a composer who can be characterized as free from any specific school or style. In his musical language, free tonal in essence, one can detect traces of Impressionism, Neoromanticism and even Expressionism at times, but he is also willing to employ more recent 20th-century stylistic devices. Nieminen has mentioned that he finds himself very similar to Japanese Toru Takemitsu both musically and in thought. Mediterannean culture and Italy especially have been close to Nieminen's heart ever since he first visited the country and appeared in the jury of the international Fernando Sor guitar competition in 1981. He has composed a great number of works which refer to Italian landscapes or artists. The work Quadri Morandi (Morandi's pictures) is written in four movements. It has at its centre the painter Giorgio Morandi (1890-1964), who is known as a master of still lifes and landscapes painted in a plain manner and is subdued colours. Their atmosphere typically reflects a calm spirit. This is the third guitar work that nieminen has written for Kleemola. It is easy to find a counterpart for the encaptivating realm of Morandi's art in Nieminen's clear and pure expression. The titles and expression markings also include several references to Morandi. For example, in the opening movement Prelude the words la Natura morta (still life) appear as an additional note on the chord sequence following the freely flowing opening section. At the end of the movement one can hear rhythmic motif coloured with flageolets that repeats the syllables of the painter's name: Gior-gio Moran-di. A similar motif can be heard at the end of the second movement Quasi cadenza. The tranquilly breathing third movement Paesaggio (landscape) creates an illusion of landscape by imitating the echo of monastery bells (come campane del monastero) and at the same time refers to il monaco (the monk), the name by which Morandi was often called. The final movement Ritratto (Portrait) is the most extensive of all the movements and can be seen, with its recurring motifs, as a reflection of the stable yet subtly varying elements of Morandi's art. The work ends with the rhythmic motif that once more echoes Morandi's name, like signature.

Free Spirit offers a fresh new sound from composer Sean O'Loughlin. It has a uniquely American sound to it with open chords contrasted with lush flowing melodies that interplay back and forth in a struggle for supremacy that is finally settled with both co-existing together in the end for a wonderful punctuated ending.Free Spirit is a dynamic composition for the more advanced string ensemble. Full of lyrical and rhythmic passages, the music is a great way to showcase the musicianship of your ensemble.The rhythmic motive at the beginning serves as a connecting thread throughout the com- position. The rhythmic accents are added in m. 5 to increase the intensity and provide a slightly different color to the music. Some interplay follows at the section at m. 13. A lyrical melody then starts to soar over top of the rhythmic motive at m. 27. Bring out the contrast in the different styles simultaneously. The rhythmic energy fades away at m. 36 and gives way to a lush, haunting passage. The rhythmic motive quickly returns at m. 42 for some further development alongside the lyrical melody. A slight departure from the tonal center at m. 53 brings us back to a full presentation at m. 62. Some imitation and counterpoint lead us back to a recapitulation of the central musical ideas at m. 85. The lyrical melody returns as an echo of its former self at m. 100. This leads to a final build-up section at m. 110. Keep the accents punchy and crisp throughout this passage. This climaxes at a tutti gesture to end the piece with fire.
