The Festival Collection, Book 4

Description

The Festival Collection is a companion series to the Succeeding with the Masters series, expanding upon the repertoire selections with no duplication of repertoire between the two sets. Each book includes recordings of all the corresponding works to guide students in their interpretation.

Book 4 consists of pivotal intermediate level repertoire that is essential for the student to study, and to apply the knowledge and experience they have mastered from the previous levels. The repertoire at this level will broaden the students understanding of utilizing the fundamentals of proper technique, with accurate musical expression and interpretation in their performances. Mastery of pieces at this level will allow students to refine their abilities and prepare for the advanced repertoire. Features pieces by composers such as: François Couperin (The Little Trifle), Johann Wilhelm Hässler (Capriccio), Robert Schumann (Sicilienne, Opus 68, No. 11), and Aram Khachaturian (Ivan's Song).
