Jan Kopp

Gestures 2

Even more pianistic discoveries

In the second volume of his Gestures, Stuttgart composer Jan Kopp presents ten more innovative miniatures that reveal new tonal and technical aspects of the instrument. Once again, musical-haptic movement patterns such as rocking, swimming or flying invite you on a special kind of pianistic journey of discovery.
The pieces are even more substantial in terms of composition and interpretation than in the first volume. This is another reason why mini-workshops are again included as rehearsal aids, which provide performers with very practice-oriented examples of playing and sound possibilities of contemporary piano music.
The Gestures II are suitable for piano students with sufficient experience, professionals, but also for committed amateurs. Their use in competitions such as Jugend musiziert or prima la musica is particularly recommended. The demands of the effective pieces with their sometimes extreme playing positions and volumes are largely at an intermediate level.
