Description:
The ANACROUSE collection offers novice and experienced pianists alike a wide choice of classical works, from the Renaissance to the modern era.
We have set ourselves the goal of offering both "must-haves" from the classical repertoire and pieces by sometimes forgotten composers, all of undeniable pedagogical value. Each piece, sold individually, has been the subject of careful editorial work, both in terms of the musical text and its engraving, in order to guarantee musicians the conditions essential to the pleasures derived from frequent trade in these works.
The scores are offered in traditional book form (paper sheets), and also available by download.
Beethoven composed his second "sonata quasi una fantasia" from Op. 27 in 1801 between his first and second symphonies. This sonata was renamed the "Arbour Sonata" by his contemporaries. They imagined Beethoven composing this work in the shade of an arbour. In 1832, several years after the composer's death, the famous moonlight title was evoked by the poet Ludwig Rallstab. Rallstab perceived the sonata's first movement as a moonlit evening stroll on Lake Lucerne in Switzerland.
This Romantic work is now universally known, and will remain an essential classic for pianists.
