Ricordi Piano Anthology - Vol. 2

Summary of This Collection

This piano collection, focused on pop & rock, is aimed at intermediate-level pianists who want to play a modern repertoire while developing true rhythmic ease. It features a typical pop arrangement approach: clearly highlighted melodies, harmony that adds color, and accompaniment that works on pulse, chord transitions, and hand coordination.

Thanks to its intermediate difficulty, this book is suitable both for self-learning and for working with a teacher. It helps consolidate essential pop/rock pianist reflexes: tempo stability, chord change management, balance between right and left hands, and articulation adapted to the style. It is an excellent resource for moving from "reading" playing to a more musical approach, where sound, groove, and dynamics are considered.

The presence of Italian-English language also makes it a relevant choice if you use international methods or sheet music, or if you want to familiarize yourself with common musical terminology in these two languages. In practice, this collection easily finds its place in a sheet music library dedicated to pop piano, whether for playing at home, preparing an audition, or building a repertoire of effective pieces to share.
