Selected Piano Works Character Pieces Sheet Music Piano Solo Book NEW 051480372

Description: Selected Piano Works Character PiecesPiano Solo Condition: New - Unused - Unopened Authorized Dealer: Musical Progressions Publisher: Henle Format: Softcover Composer: Stephen Heller Pages: 102 In this volume are many small but pleasing piano pieces by the 19th-century composer Stephen Heller. The majority are of only medium difficulty, but their sound always has a particular charm. In 1853, Heller wrote to his publisher that he had not sought to write many words here, but wanted to suggest something substantial and meaningful in just a few strokes. Our volume provides valuable insights into Heller's artistic development and its entirety devoted to the character piece, a form that comprises the major part of his compositional output. Examples include Die kleine Bettlerin [the little beggar girl], Nach erquickender Rast [after a refreshing rest] and Weinendes Kind [crying child] - scenes that conjure up and express a particular mood. As Ursula Kersten writes in her preface, Heller's music already makes one think of impressionism, and repays the effort involved in getting to know the composer of this volume more closely.
