The pieces in this group comprising Notebook for Piano were composed over many years, and were selected from a collection of approximately fifty works at this level . They are accessible to most students who have studied piano diligently for at least three to four years. Contained in these pieces are challenging techniques in rhythm, harmony, articulation, dynamics, notation, and even a challenge to hear and understand music that is not exclusively key based. However, more so than any other compositional facet, melody is always a primary concern in these pieces.Many of the pieces in Notebook for Piano have been performed by intermediate level students and by college music majors. I hope you find this collection satisfying.

The Notebook for Johann Christian Bach completes the collection of surviving instructional works from within the Bach family, following the highly praised Notebooks for Anna Magdalena and Wilhelm Friedemann Bach. Together, Bach's Notebooks provide a fascinating glimpse into the domestic music academy of the Bach family home. They contain original compositions, exercises, and model examples by other composers, all collected with a view to providing a rounded musical education to family members. Presented as a luxury linen-bound edition with gold-embossed cover lettering, illustrations and critical commentary, this volume includes pieces not featured in previous collections.This first Urtext edition Notebook for Bach's son Johann Christian has been reconstructed by renowned Bach scholar Christoph Wolff from copies from the estate of C.P.E. Bach. It includes pieces for keyboard by J.S. Bach, Johann Christian's initial attempts at composition (minuets and polonaises), and pieces by the older brothers Carl Philipp Emanuel and Johann Christoph Friedrich and son-in-law Johann Christoph Altnickol. The collection is completed by two sets of short preludes and fughettas from Bach's early Leipzig teaching practice, which may have come from other lost notebooks for his family, possibly the one for C.P.E. Bach.Clavier-Bà chlein für Johann Christian BachNach den hochgelobten Ausgaben der Clavier-Büchlein für Anna Magdalena Bach und Wilhelm Friedemann Bach vervollständigt das Clavier-Büchlein für Johann Christian Bach die Sammlung an überlieferten Unterrichtswerken innerhalb der Bachfamilie.
