The FJH Pianist's Curriculum

SOUND/WORLD, Volume 1

Stan Applebaum / edited by Helen Marlais

Soon you will be hooked on 20th century piano sounds with Stan Applebaum’s amazing miniatures! These short pieces utilize the full range of the piano and allow the student to sense different kinds of emotions - dramatic as well as introverted. The volume includes a "tone poem," a "gentle aria," a "prelude in miniature," and a bitonal miniature: "dancing around in the Aeolian mode." You will find this collection of over 30 pieces a delight to play again and again!
