The galant style in piano music is the most important precursor to the Viennese Classical period, which represents a crucial stylistic era for pianists. In this book, the author aims primarily to shed light on the performance and key attributes of the galant style, as well as the philosophy underpinning it. Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach, as well as Johann Joachim Quantz and Daniel Gottlob Türk, provide very clear guidelines on how to interpret music in the galant style. For this reason, the author is particularly keen in his work to shed light on those aspects of piano playing (from the time of C. Ph. E. Bach) that remain relevant to this day.

Complete Songs (High Voice): Sheet
Numbering more than 100 in total, and composed across a 60-year period, Gabriel Fauré's songs form the single most influential contribution to the field of French art song. Despite their importance, the songs have long been riddled with misprints and inconsistencies. This first complete critical edition is based on study of hundreds of manuscript and printed sources, along with evidence and interpretative advice from artists who worked with Fauré. Above all, it is a practical edition, informed by extensive work with musicians in performances, masterclasses and workshops. <p/>This second volume comprises the songs of Fauré's creative maturity, including popular favourites (Les Roses d'Ispahan, Clair de lune) alongside some lesser-known gems, together with his three vocal duets and the delightful four-voice Madrigal. Version for High Voice.
