Une brève histoire du piano 9

The result of extensive personal piano research and years of teaching experience, A Brief History of the Piano offers repertoire for all piano lovers.

This ninth book features a concerto in 17 tableaux to be played 4-handed. The parts of the "pupil", accessible to beginner pianists, will be accompanied by a teacher or an advanced pianist. We travel through different musical moods of great contrast, ranging from tenderness to diabolical energy, all within a continuum.

Eight other books are offered separately, detailed below.

Divided into 9 books, the 300 original works are approached progressively, covering a variety of aesthetics, techniques and modes of playing, and are inspired by different periods, countries and styles... they offer a personal perspective, designed to develop the open-mindedness of each student.

Besides its pedagogical aspect, this book is above all an artistic project whose main aim is to enable beginner pianists, children, young people, adults or more experienced musicians, perhaps future professionals, to play, play and play the piano... in comfort!

The fruit of a great deal of personal piano research and years of teaching experience, Une Brève Histoire du Piano offers a repertoire for all piano lovers.
