Edited by Michael Töpel. Paperback. Performance score, anthology. 103 pages. Baerenreiter Verlag #BA08762. Published by Baerenreiter Verlag (BA.BA08762).ISBN 9790006525898. 30 x 23 cm inches.
This Piano Album offers a wealth of discoveries and stimulating pieces from twenty composers of the 20th and 21st centuries. These diverse pieces, by composers working in quite different styles, impressively demonstrate how topical and inspiring the piano is for contemporary composers. Their works invite you on a voyage of discovery – using the piano’s 88 keys and occasionally its inside workings!
Players experience the anatomy of an individual note, grasp what “touch” means, and experience the piano as a continent of undreamt-of musical possibilities. The pieces which result from improvisation encourage experimentation in the area of spontaneous music-making. Many of the works included here were composed recently especially for this unusual album, or are published for the first time. The cover has been designed by the artist “ rosalie ”, reflecting the lively and varied contents. The collection includes a broad spectrum of repertoire ranging from easy to more demanding works.

academic interest maybe
These contemporary pieces explore what most of us would consider the outside edges of music with unusual notation, artistic interpretation of rhythms, etc. I am a piano teacher who owns a lot of print music, but I returned this collection because it was too expensive for the little use I could make of it.

What's in the volume?
I haven't seen the product because I won't spend over $50 for a collection of contemporary pieces in which I am not told the titles of any of the pieces or even the composers's names. Even the pages when you look inside have the composers' names so small that I can't even tell what they are.
