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.
The book of twenty-four Preludes Opus 28 was composed for the most part before Frédéric Chopin and George Sand's stay in Majorca during the winter of 1838-39. The composer's great role model here is Johann Sebastian Bach. Chopin took the Well-Tempered Clavier, the Preludes and the Fugues of the Leipzig Cantor with him to Mallorca, where he admired them above all else, and played a page of them for himself before each concert.
The fourth Prelude in E minor, justly famous as the "sweet lament" with its long phrasing and regular accompaniment of descending chromatic chords, is imbued with an emotional gravity.
