Nicolai Podgornov: Zongoracirkusz – 14 képzeletgazdag darab zongorára (Hungarian)

Összegzés

Lépjen be a zenei csodák világába a Nicolai Podgornov's Piano Circus kottagyűjteménnyel. Ez a varázslatos válogatás 14 olyan darabot tartalmaz, amelyeket kifejezetten a zongoristák és a zenekedvelők szórakoztatására és fejlesztésére írtak. A könnyűtől a közepes nehézségi szintig terjedő művek segítenek áthidalni a technikai gyakorlatok és az érzelmes előadásmód közötti szakadékot. Minden darab egy-egy élénk zenei portré: a bohócok vidám ritmusától a légtornászok kecses keringőjéig Podgornov kompozíciói a cirkusz lüktető hangulatát hozzák el a hangszerhez.

Érdekességek

• A zeneszerző: Az orosz származású Nicolai Podgornov híres arról, hogy a klasszikus alapokat jazz, pop és népzenei elemekkel ötvözi, így alkotva modern, de tanulható darabokat.
• Pedagógiai cél: A Universal Edition azzal a céllal adta ki a kötetet, hogy a tanárok és diákok számára friss, élvezetes és motiváló kortárs repertoárt biztosítson a hagyományos vizsgadarabok mellett.
