This Piano Album offers a wealth of discoveries and stimulating pieces from twenty composers of the 20th and 21 st centuries. These diverse pieces, by composers working in quite different styles, impressively demonstrate how topical and inspiring the piano is for contemporary composers. Their works invite you on a voyage of discovery ? using the piano?s 88 keys and occasionally its inside workings! Players experience the anatomy of an individual note, grasp what »touch« means, and experience the piano as a continent of undreamt-of musical possibilities. The pieces which result from improvisation encourage experimentation in the area of spontaneous musicmaking. Many of the works included here were composed recently especially for this unusual album, or are published for the first time. The cover has been designed by the artist rosalie, reflecting the lively and varied contents. The collection includes a broad spectrum of repertoire ranging from easy to more demanding works.ContentsJean Barraqué, Retour (Critical Commentary)Günter Bialas, Zwei IntermezziL?ubica Cekovská, famisiBeat Furrer, Zwei leichte KlavierstückePeter Michael Hamel, »... es werden nur Steine bleiben« in mem.

Brahms himself described the first version as suitable for reasonable hands, that is for proficient players, and the easier version as perhaps for prettier hands, that is, for domestic music-making. He initially described the latter version to his publisher as a children?s edition. The catchy and musically easily accessible pieces are among the composer?s most popular works and are particularly suitable for piano students and lovers of the Romantic repertoire.Both versions of the Waltzes op. 39 (BA 9602, BA 9603) are available in separate editions and form an important contribution to Bärenreiter?s series of Brahms?s works in scholarly-critical Urtext editions.
