Summary of This Collection
This volume offers an immersion into Schubert's pianistic world through an anthology designed to appeal both to students in training and amateur pianists. It features essential pieces such as the "Sehnsuchts-Walzer" (Waltz of Longing) and the Impromptu in E-flat major, alongside dances (ländlers, écossaises, sentimental waltzes, German dances) particularly rich for working on phrasing, rhythmic flexibility, and harmonic color.
The collection then broadens the scope with piano transcriptions of some of the most well-known excerpts: symphony movements (including the "Unfinished"), chamber music pages (such as the "Trout Quintet"), and emblematic melodies like "Ave Maria", "Der Lindenbaum," or "Ständchen." This diversity allows for varying touch styles, approaching accompaniment and cantilena, and enriching one's concert and salon repertoire.
All pieces are indicated at an intermediate level and are complemented by fingerings as well as metronome tempo markings, useful for building an effective practice routine. Thanks to clear and pleasant printing, this collection is suitable both for teaching (sight-reading, interpretation) and for the pleasure of playing at home.
