Paul Dessau realised this as early as 1948, when he composed the “Five little exercises for the hands and the brain also” in exile in Hollywood. Private piano lessons were one of the composer's few reliable sources of income at that time.  But later, too, Dessau devoted himself to teaching music, not least in bringing up his own son Maxim, to whom the “Piano piece with lots of g's” is dedicated. Five little exercises for the hands and the brain also (1948) • Klavierstück (viele g's) (1963) • Für Helli (1971)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“These studies focus on contrapuntal two-part textures and canons, which are suitable for students who will be playing Bach. There is abundant fingering with special attention given to substitute fingering on repeated notes. The last piece, 'Für Helli,', has a complex harmonic and rhythmic structure, and the right hand spans a tenth.”--\u003ci\u003eClavier\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eProduct details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat \/ Medium:\u003c\/strong\u003e Softcover\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVoicing:\u003c\/strong\u003e Piano\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries:\u003c\/strong\u003e Schott\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 16\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12.0 × 9.0 × 0.1 in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3 oz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eSchott — historic German music publisher since 1770, home of Hindemith and Carl Orff.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eAuthorized dealer.
