41 Easy Pieces from 4 Centuries. Par . Pour la série Easy Concert Pieces, la pianiste et pédagogue expérimentée Monika Twelsiek a compilé des pièces pour pianistes débutants simples et agréables et les a classées dans un ordre progressif en trois volumes. Les recueils sont pensés comme des compléments aux méthodes de piano et sont particulièrement adaptés aux auditions dans les écoles de musique, aux examens et aux concours tels que Jugend musiziert. Le répertoire est varié et propose un grand choix de pièces baroques, classiques, romantiques et modernes. Le troisième volume s?adresse aux élèves d?un niveau avancé, qui veulent travailler l?expressivité de leur jeu et leur interprétation. Les pièces mettent en place certaines exigences au niveau de la fluidité du jeu, de la rythmique, de l?articulation et du phrasé, du jeu polyphonique (plusieurs voix sur une seule main) et de la différenciation des mouvements. Le volume 1 (ED 22547) contient des pièces faciles sur l?ambitus d?une quinte et d?une octave facile. Les autres critères de choix des pièces ont été une rythmique basique et des accords très simples. Le positionnement du pouce, la polyphonie et la pédale ne sont pas encore abordés. / Date parution : 2023-06-01/ Recueil / Piano

Satie?s ?Ogives? und Gymnopédies? are milestones in the history of modern music. The four metrically free ?Ogives? (meaning pointed arches) reflect the influence of the French New Gothic or Neo-Gregorian movement in architecture with their clear lines and echo effects. The three ?Gymnopédies? proceed with a swaying, chordal momentum, and Satie?s radically sparse writing makes ironic reference to the dance of young warriors in ancient Sparta during gymnopaedia rituals.

The pieces are easy to play and are ideal for teaching purposes. Information on performance practice by Satie specialist Steffen Schleiermacher offer insight into Satie?s music aesthetics.
