12 well-known original pieces in progressive order of difficulty with practical comments.
Urtext edition for piano.
Difficulty: advanced.
Of
the twelve composers in the series »At the piano«, Franz Schubert was
undoubtedly the least at home at the piano – but nevertheless what
masterpieces he left us for this instrument! There is hardly any pianist
who is not immediately captivated by the cheerful yet melancholy
atmosphere of Schubert's impromptus and Moments musicaux. Even the
simple pieces by Schubert at the beginning of this volume have
surprising twists in store that afford them a profundity of their own.
Nor are his dances mere »entertainment«. No matter how charming they may
seem on the surface, there is always a wistful tone in his waltzes and
ländler. This seems to reflect the gravely ill composer's presentiment
of his own death.
