Alte ungarische Tanze für Kinderstreichorchester : für Kinderstreichorchester mit Schlagisnstrumenten ad libitum

Editio Musica Budapest launches a new series for the youngest pupils of string instruments based on the model of the popular 'Leggiero' series. Each part of the pieces included in the volumes of 'Leggerissimo' can be played in the first position which enables children to get a foretaste of the pleasure of playing in an orchestra after merely some years of instrumental studies. The first volume contains the arrangement of 18th-century Hungarian dance tunes. In addition to strings, the orchestral sound may be enriched by percussion instruments ad libitum.

Aria e rondeau für Klarinette mit Klavierbegleitun : Klavierauszug

This two-movement work was written in 2003 for an exceptionally talented pupil at the music school that bears the composer's name. The first movement is a song-like composition based on many sustained notes, the second movement is a cheerful, fast-moving piece. We recommend it to music school students in the upper year-groups. (With part for Si b clarinet)

Bach Beispielsammlung II

This collection is a selection of excerpts from Bach cantatas, chosen not only for the beauty of their musical content but because from the pedagogical point of view too they deserve a place in a publication intended for educational purposes. The excerpts embrace two distinct areas of Baroque vocal music, the melodic realms of the aria and the recitative. The aria and arioso quotations in the collection, generally presented without accompaniment, are intended for sight-singing. The aria and recitative excerpts with continuo accompaniment also provide students with serious harmonization tasks and are therefore principally related to their music theory studies. Volume Icontains the easier cantata excerpts, Volume II the more difficult ones.

14 Bagatellen für Klavier op. 6

This is one of Bartók's most famous series of piano pieces, whose fame is probably greater than either its popularity with pianists, or the frequency with which it occurs on concert programmes. When it was written [in 1908] it triggered sensation and scandal in musical circles. The series as a whole (its Hungarian title was originally 14 zongoradarab [14 piano pieces], Bartók later converting to the use of the word bagatelle in Hungarian too) is not a true cyclic composition that can only be played in its entirety and with movements in the original order, but rather a more loosely ordered collection, an anthology. Some of the pieces belong together. But the varied succession oftempos and characters, the 'Gradus ad Parnassum' principle, generally proceeding from the easier towards the technically or musically more difficult, could also be a reason for the volume's ordering.'

Mikrokosmos for piano 6 : New Definitive Edition

'The Mikrokosmos is a cycle of 153 pieces for piano, written with a didactic purpose (Vol. 1: Z. 125, Vol. 2: Z. 126, Vol. 3: Z. 127, Vol. 4: Z. 128, Vol. 5: Z. 129, Vol. 6: Z. 130). That is, to give piano pieces which can be used from the very beginning, and then going on, it is graded according to difficulties. And the word Mikrokosmos may be interpreted as a series of pieces in many different styles, representing a small world. Or it may be interpreted as "world of the little ones, the children".' (Interview broadcast by WNYC, in early 1945, on a programme entitled Ask the Composer.)

12 Etüden op.6 (ex op.1) für Klavier : für Klavier

Liszt first composed these etudes at 14 years old in the year 1825. Just 25 years later, after being revised repeatedly, they appeared under the title of Transcendental Etudes (12 Études d exécution transcendante).This edition has found a place among the renewed publications in our Music Lesson series, and it features revised fingerings, performer s notes, and a preface all written by pianist Kornél Zempléni. He believed that Liszt s Op. 6 serves as the ideal introduction into the technique and musical elements needed for students to successfully study the Transcendental Etudes. Regarding the 12 Etudes for Piano, Zempléni had this to say: ''With this publication we hope tocontribute something both to the advancement of the young pianist and to the increased appreciation of Liszt s art.'' Liszt's 12 Etudes has been renumbered as his Op. 6 according to the most recent research, but in terms of content this publication corresponds with the volume which was formerly labeled as his Op. 1.
