The Exploring Piano Classics: A Masterworks Method for Developing
Pianists series pairs motivating performance repertoire with
thoughtful technical studies. Each level contains a Repertoire book
with CD and a Technique book, both with convenient page-by-page
correlation. When used together, the books give students a deep
understanding of the art of music, performance practices, and the
necessary skills to play the piano with technical ease. The
Repertoire books include pieces from the major style periods,
selected and graded based on festival, competition, and examination
lists from the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom.
Background information on each style period, its instruments,
composers, and the music itself is included.
The CD recordings of the repertoire, performed by internationally
known clinician and teacher Nancy Bachus, provide an indispensable
tool for appropriate musical interpretation. A graduate of the
Eastman School of Music with an M.M. in Piano Performance and
Literature, Nancy Bachus has performed solo recitals across the U.
S., Canada, and Italy, and appeared in the original "Monster
Concerts" in venues such as Lincoln Center and the White House.
