Kats-Chernin: Piano Village

Description

Selections for intermediate to advanced level pianists, including Butterflying, Eliza Aria, Fast Blue Village, Russian Rag and more.

"This beautiful collection of contemporary solo piano music by Elena Kats-Chernin, a prolific and celebrated Australian composer, is a feast for the intermediate to advanced pianist...Kats-Chernin's understanding of the language of balletic movement, at once both highly rhythmic and lyric, is strongly felt. Through all – moods whimsical, sorrowful, contemplative and soaring – the composer's voice is clear and colorful." – American Music Teacher
