Like Chopin, Gillock wrote 24 preludes featuring all major and minor keys. The newly engraved 50th anniversary edition contains the composer's original notes, as well as a CD recording performed by Henry Doskey, who studied piano with Gillock while the Lyric Preludes were being written in the late 1950s. Friends for more than 35 years, Gillock designated Doskey as the "authoritative interpreter, and judge of authenticity of stylistic treatment" of his music. 36 pages.
Because of its Baroque style, 'Fanfare' points the way to later Bach playing and is perfectly delightful in itself. The short pieces with such story-book titles as 'Cuckoo in the Palace Garden,' 'Tapestry Weavers,' 'The Lute Player,' and 'Lullaby of an Old Nursemaid' can either stand alone or be combined into suites for attractive recital groups.
(Willis). All eight volumes of the Accent on Gillock series in one collection! This newly edited edition features all 51 classic Gillock compositions in progressive order and are freshly engraved. A must-have for every piano studio!

Playing Beyond the Notes: A Pianist's Guide to Musical Interpretation demystifies the complex concepts of musical interpretation in Western tonal piano music by boiling it down to basic principles in an accessible writing style. Author and veteran piano instructor Deborah Rambo Sinn tackles a different interpretive principle, explaining clearly, for example, how to play effective ornaments and rubatos. As a whole, the book helps pianists understand concrete ways to apply interpretive concepts to their own playing and gives teachers practical ways to teach interpretation to their students. The book is illustrated with over 200 repertoire excerpts and supplemented by a companion website with over 100 audio recordings. Playing Beyond the Notes is essential reading for all performing pianists, independent piano teachers, and piano pedagogy students.
