Carl Nielsen: Pieces Op.3: Flute & Guitar: Instrumental Album

Easier Piano Pieces 32-The composition style of the notable Danish composer Carl Nielsen (1865-1931) is highly individualistic. The six Humorous Bagatelles written in 1894-7 are among his most charming works for Piano and clearly reflect Nielsensâ??s simple melodic and rhythmic style derived from his early experience of village music-making.

The pieces in this book are about ABRSM Grade 3-4 standard. Includes works by Cesar Franck Tchaikovsky Carl Nielsen and Enrique Granados among many others. Edited by Lionel Salter.

Carl Nielsen is perhaps the best known Danish composer and this volume contains a collection of Five Pieces For Piano from Opus 3. There is an interesting range of feeling and sentiment in these intimate miniatures.

The New Essential Companion. Henrik Wiese, the internationally renowned orchestral and solo flautist, has spent four years compiling what promises to be the definitive guide to audition repertoire for students preparing for a seat in a professional orchestra. He has worked with his own students in Salzburg as they engaged in auditions, as well as with other professional players and his teaching colleagues at the conservatorium. He sourced repertoire lists from job advertisements past and present and referred to other audition lists such as those of Baxtresser and Wye. Considerable research has gone into the differences between existing editions of the chosen pieces even, surprisingly, from twentieth century composers such as Prokofiev and Stravinsky. 'The Flute Audition” then looks at practical matters such as page turns and metronome markings. Wiese comments, for example, that Hindemith's own recording takes a passage from 'Symphonic Metamorphoses” markedly slower than in the score. The result of all this painstaking research is the most comprehensive collection of international audition pieces yet published in a single volume. 'This is an excellent collection of orchestral excerpts for the next generation of young musicians. You can use it to prepare for auditions anywhere in the world.
