Pablo Catalão: Little Notebook, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Blurb

Composed as the thesis for my masters degree in Pedagogy, these illustrated miniatures are greatly inspired by Stravinsky's "Les Cinq Doigts". Using the pedagogical approach of making music for 5 Fingers in the same position, the goal is to make great music with very little. Stravinsky did the same with his own cycle achieving a balance between pedagogy and art. Although they don't require a lot of movement on the keyboard, these pieces are quite polyphonic, which is a real challenge for the young musician. With a great variety of characters and atmospheres, from dreamy, to radiant, to hectic, these pieces are sure to capture your imagination. I owe a huge debt of gratitude to Tirza Vogel, who drew the illustrations and made this book that much richer. It was a joy composing these little pieces and I hope they will bring amazement and awe to your inner child.
