Summary of This Recording
Piano recording: Marie-Catherine Girod offers a listening journey designed as a true working companion for the pianist. It features a selection of short and expressive pieces that allow exploration of many musical situations: minuets and dances, small forms (sonatina, rondo), character pieces, lullaby, march, waltz, as well as some nods to jazz aesthetics.
The content brings together very contrasting composers and styles: Bach (Minuets), Handel (Minuet), Haydn (German Dance), Mozart (Minuet, Allegro), Schubert (Ländler D679), but also Bartók (Hungarian Folk Song, Waltz, Etude), Shostakovich (March), Kabalevsky (A Night on the River, Waltz, Little Song, Little Sad Story), Tchaikovsky (Old French Song, Italian Song), as well as Gillock (Fiesta) and Peterson (Jazz-minuet). This diversity is valuable for developing the ear and stylistic intelligence, moving from a pearly and articulated touch to more singing or rhythmically marked atmospheres.
While listening, the student can absorb essential elements for progress: right hand/left hand balance, dynamics management, phrase breathing, precision of note attacks and releases, and tempo stability. It is also an excellent support for working on piano interpretation (intention, character, storytelling), notably thanks to evocative titles such as "The Complaints of a Doll," "Fairy Tale," "After the Ball," "Return Home," or "Once Upon a Time."
