Piano Masterworks for Teaching and Performance, Vol 2: A Comprehensive Anthology of Standard Literature Details
The 100 pieces (including individual sonata movements) in this anthology provide a valuable resource for pianists and piano teachers as well as piano pedagogy faculty and students. The literature ranges from intermediate to advanced levels of difficulty. Repertoire was chosen from all style periods and each piece includes suggestions for fingering and pedaling. All selections are in their original form (no arrangements, simplifications, or other adaptations). 400 pages. Comb-bound.
Reviews
I really like this as an anthology for my early advanced students. Volume 2 provides a great selection of repertoire to transition from sonatina to sonata level repertoire. The editing for trills and decorations is clearly realized so students know exactly what to play. The print is clean and not too small; very legible. Many of the mainstream popular classics are included such as Claire de Lune and the Moonlight Sonata. As another review somewhere mentioned, the 20th and 21st century selections are a bit limited in quantity in comparison to the preceding periods which are very well covered.
