Summary of This Sheet Music
This collection for piano (from the Les plaisirs... Mendels A. series) offers a selection of short pieces designed for pianists at level 2. The goal is clear: to develop solid automatisms (reading, coordination, consistency) while working on expression, thanks to musically rewarding pieces from the very first measures.
The pieces have been selected and fingered by Arlette Mendels-Voltchikis. The fingerings guide you in hand organization, facilitate transitions, and help build an effective technique without tension. This is a real advantage for students: it saves time in sight-reading, allowing focus on sound, dynamics, and style.
The table of contents mixes well-known signatures and discoveries, to approach various characters and dances (minuet, gavotte, waltz, mazurka, polonaise...): Kirchhoff (Rigaudon), Purcell (March), Mozart (Polonaise), Handel (Minuet), Beethoven (Gay and Sad, German Waltz No. 3), Couperin (Fanfare de Diane), Schubert (Waltzes Op. 9 No. 11 and No. 12, Dance No. 3), Chopin (Mazurka Op. 7), Schumann (Sicilienne), Bartók (For Children No. 28, The Highway Robber), Kabalevsky (Cheerful Little Story, Sad Little Tale), Shostakovich (Hurdy-Gurdy), as well as Khrennikov, Koltchanovsky, Chailley, Tomasi, Pierre-Petit, Noël-Gallon, Meunier, Lauro, Carman, Z'lica, Manen, Gabus, Martin, Chartreux, and Glinka (The Wind Blows at the Door).
Thanks to this diversity, this sheet music is an excellent resource for piano lessons, auditions, or simply for playing "for pleasure" while progressing. A perfect collection to enrich your repertoire and refine your sense of style, piece by piece.
