Music for the Young

Description

Piano — Accessible to adventurous intermediate players and yet rewarding for advanced pianists too, Samuel Adler’s Music for the Young (and the Young at Heart) breathes new life into the familiar, welcoming world of the 19th-century character piece. The ten short pieces are characterized by lightness of touch and texture, while having great diversity of mood between them. Some are lyrical and effervescent, while others are rhythmic and dancing, including three small toccatas, a waltz, and a culminating, brilliant tango.
