33 Piano Pieces by Bela Bartok, Dmitri Kabalevsky and Dmitri Shostakovich

Composers: Bela Bartok, Dmitri Kabalevsky, Dmitri Shostakovich
Editor: Richard Walters
Format: Softcover
Instrumentation: Piano
Level: Elementary

The 20th Century series presents music by some of the greatest composers of the modern era, composers who wrote a full range of music for orchestra, voices, piano and chamber ensembles, in the great and large forms. But they also valued music education, and composed interesting music to foster a student pianist's progress. The pieces by these composers lead a student not only to technical proficiency, but also to become a more fully formed, imaginative musician.

When a great talent turns attention to writing a short piece of limited difficulty level for students, it is approached with the same aesthetics, temperament, tastes and creative invention applied when composing a symphony, opera or concerto. These exquisite miniatures are complete works of timeless art. Through them a master musician of the past indirectly teaches a progressing musician of the present and the future.

Schirmer Performance Editions feature composer biographies, historical notes, and practice and performance tips.
