Ernest Bucalossi (1863–1933) was a light-music composer remembered solely for this one enduring (and endearing) lollipop. Himself a London theatre conductor he was the second son of theatre conductor/composerProcida Bucalossi who migrated to London from Italy. Ernest studied at the Royal Academy of Music and in 1881 began his theatre career by deputising for his father. He went on to compose for a variety of theatrical purposes. Thejaunty characteristic piece is one of those pieces that perfectly exemplifies its title.

Sept pièces pour piano. Par LAKS SIMON. Simon Laks (1901-1983), who moved from Warsaw to Paris in 1926 at the age of 25, belonged to the large group of composers from Central and Eastern European countries who went down in 20th-century music history as the ?École de Paris?. Slavic temperament amalgamated in their music with French esprit, the folklore of their native countries combined with the stylistic elements of neoclassicism and jazz typical of the time. As a member of the ?Association of Young Polish Musicians?, Laks quickly made his way into French musical life. However, his career was ended with the beginning of World War 2 due to the collaboration of the Vichy government with Nazi Germany. Internment in 1941 was followed by deportation to Auschwitz in 1942. Laks survived the Shoah as a member and later leader of a camp band in Birkenau, which he testified to in his moving book Music in Auschwitz. After the traumatic experiences, Laks did not return to regular compositional activity until the 1960s, producing an opera, songs, and chamber music works, some of which were awarded important composition prizes. At the peak of this optimistic creative phase, he composed incidental music for Peretz Hirschbein's famous Yiddish comedy Dem Schmids Techter (The Blacksmith's Daughters), which premiered in New York in 1918, for a new production of the play at the Théâtre de l?Entrepôt in Paris. Along with Prokofiev's Overture on Hebrew Themes and Shostakovich's cycle From Yiddish (Jewish) Folk Poetry, it is one of the most significant 20th-century explorations of art music with Jewish folklore ? homage to a culture irreparably destroyed. From the original score, Holger Groschopp compiled two suites, for violoncello and piano and piano solo, that capture the essence of Lak?s enchanting drama music. The premiere recording of the suites with Holger Groschopp and Adele Bitter was awarded the Opus Klassik 2023 in the category Editorial Achievement of the Year. . / Niveau : moyen - avancé / Date parution : 2024-01-06/ Répertoire / Piano

These two pieces were written by Britten in 1935 for the oboist Sylvia Spencer who had played in early performances of his Phantasy Quartet Op.2. the first performances of The Grasshopper and The Wasp did not take place until 1979 when they were performed by Janet Craxton and Margot Wright as part of a memorial concert for Sylvia Spencer at the Royal College Of Music Manchester.

Music through the Ages in Two Volumes-Time Pieces is an exciting series of repertoire which explores the wealth of music written from the sixteenth century to the present day. The pieces are presented chronologically within each volume and all include the year in which they were written too. This series allows the pupil to get a real feel for the different styles of music through time providing performance confidence and experience at the earliest stages. The book will prove an invaluable varied source of further study and recital repertoire.

These pieces are fun to play and conjure up a variety of scences and pictures to fire the young player's imagination. They have also ben cleverly written to practise basic fingering patterns and simple technical problems. The tunes range from the simplest to about Grade 1.
