{"product_id":"the-20th-century-upper-intermediate-level-compiled-and-edited-by-richard-walters","title":"The 20th Century - Upper Intermediate Level","description":"\u003ci\u003eThe 20th Century\u003c\/i\u003e series presents music by some of the greatest composers of the modern era, composers who wrote a full range of music for orchestra, voices, piano and chamber ensembles, in the great and large forms. But they also valued music education, and composed interesting music to foster a stdent pianist's progress. The pieces by these composers lead a student not only to technical proficiency, but also to become a more fully formed, imaginative musician. When a great talent turns attention to writing a short piece of limited difficulty level for students, it is approached with the same aesthetics, temperament, tastes and creative invention applied when composing a symphony, opera or concerto. These exquisite miniatures are complete works of timeless art. Through them a master musician of the past indirectly teaches a progressing musician of the present and the future.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eContents: \u003cb\u003eBarber\u003c\/b\u003e: Poison Ivy from \u003ci\u003eFresh from West Chester (Some Jazzings)\u003c\/i\u003e • \u003cb\u003eBartók\u003c\/b\u003e: Bagatelle No. 1 from \u003ci\u003eFourteen Bagatelles\u003c\/i\u003e • Bear Dance from \u003ci\u003eTen Easy Pieces\u003c\/i\u003e • Joc cu bâta (Stick Dance) from \u003ci\u003eRoumanian Folk Dances\u003c\/i\u003e • \u003cb\u003eBoulanger\u003c\/b\u003e: D'un vieux jardin (An Old Garden) from \u003ci\u003eTrois morceaux pour piano\u003c\/i\u003e • \u003cb\u003eBurleigh\u003c\/b\u003e: On Bended Knees from \u003ci\u003eFrom the Southland\u003c\/i\u003e • \u003cb\u003eDello Joio\u003c\/b\u003e: Bright from \u003ci\u003eSuite for Piano\u003c\/i\u003e • \u003cb\u003eKabalevsky\u003c\/b\u003e: selections from \u003ci\u003e30 Pieces for Children\u003c\/i\u003e, Op. 27: War Dance, Etude in F Major • \u003cb\u003eKhachaturian\u003c\/b\u003e: Ivan Is Very Busy from \u003ci\u003eAdventures of Ivan\u003c\/i\u003e • selections from \u003ci\u003eTen Pieces for the Young Pianist\u003c\/i\u003e: The Leopard on the Seesaw, Snare Drum • \u003cb\u003eMuczynski\u003c\/b\u003e: selections from \u003ci\u003eA Summer Journal\u003c\/i\u003e, Op. 19: Morning Promenade, Park Scene • \u003cb\u003ePinto\u003c\/b\u003e: Run, Run! from \u003ci\u003eScenas Infantas (Memories of Childhood)\u003c\/i\u003e • \u003cb\u003eProkofiev\u003c\/b\u003e: selections from \u003ci\u003eMusic for Children\u003c\/i\u003e, Op. 65: Tarantella, March of the Grasshoppers • \u003cb\u003eSchuman\u003c\/b\u003e: selections from \u003ci\u003eThree Score Set\u003c\/i\u003e: Movement I, Movement II, Movement III • \u003cb\u003eShostakovich\u003c\/b\u003e: Lyrical Waltz from \u003ci\u003eDances of the Dolls\u003c\/i\u003e • \u003cb\u003eTan\u003c\/b\u003e: selections from \u003ci\u003eEight Memories in Watercolor\u003c\/i\u003e, Op. 1: Staccato Beans, Blue Nun.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSchirmer Performance Editions feature composer biographies, historical notes, and practice and performance tips.","brand":"G.
