Download or read book Selected Piano Works for Four Hands written by Franz Schubert and published by Courier Corporation. This book was released on 1977-01-01 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Franz Schubert's piano pieces for four hands are among the most varied and significant works in the entire repertoire. Schubert wrote more of these works than any other major composer, and generations of teachers, students, and concert musicians have enjoyed their enduring beauty and vitality. Included in this volume are 15 of Schubert's best and most popular titles, taken from the definitive Breitkopf and Hartel "Schubert-Gesammtausgabe." Composed between 1818 and 1828, they include the tremendously popular Military Marches, Op. 51 (of which the D Major is a striking and familiar melody); the famed "Grand Duo" Sonata in C Major, Op. 140; the Fantasia in F Minor, Op. 103 (written only a few months before Schubert's death, it is one of the most famous and elegantly expressive works in the genre); Variations in A-flat Major on an Original Theme, Op. 35; Andantino Varie in B Minor on French Motifs, Op. 84, No. 1; Fugue in E Minor, Op. 152; and a delightful array of landler, polonaises, and variations. The 23 separate pieces have been selected so that pianists of virtually any level can find works to match their needs. They range in difficulty from beautifully sculpted marches that beginners can play, to works requiring maturity and great technical skill. This volume has been specially designed as a playing edition. The noteheads are large and easily readable at the piano, and wide margins allow plenty of room for written notes, fingerings, analysis, etc. Of special importance is the addition of measure numbers, placed on alternate staves, which allow the pianists to find their place quickly while rehearsing. For playing, study, or simply listening along with records, this volume will be an admirable addition to your music library."

She's a speechless, paralyzed, and truly helpless, cared for by her seemingly loving family. But she knows with chilling certainty that one of them is trying to kill her...and will soon strike again...and she is unable to tell anyone or defend herself. Or is she? "A scary one. Lawrence at her best, with a surprising plot and a baffling mystery. " Los Angeles Daily News "Tense, taut and terrific...will disturbingly charge the atmopshere and chill the marrow of your bone. Lawrence is quite successful in capturing mood, character, and a unique situation. Subtle horror that's hard to beat." Montgomery Advertiser "Expertly written, filled with suspense. It will make the reader look over his shoulder and turn on every light in the house." St. Louis Post-Dispatch "This is on a different plane of horror.

Having survived a series of bungled love affairs and professional disappointments, he retreats to his family house in the Pyrenees. The bright spot in his life is his grandniece Emma, who becomes his prizewinning student. Struggling with his fervent desire for her success and the fear of losing her, Michel sends Emma into the world of international musical stardom that he has renounced for himself. The Mailhoc family saga, stretching from World War I to the turbulent 1960s, is full of sorrow, but the underlying melody remains tender and humorous.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Euphie--Elf, wanderer, casual drinker--carries a perhaps ill-considered loyalty and lifelong debt to Kieran 'Four-Hands' Sheaford--thief, philanderer, adequate poet. She recounts her travels with him, not least of which is that of the Legion Blade. When the pair of mercenaries have their tab called in at their usual haunt, Kieran steers them to a high-paying job to recover the stolen heirloom of the Widow Fairfax. However, the quest is not the quick cash-grab it appeared to be, as the circumstances of the theft call for suspicion, and the heirloom in question holds striking similarities to a sword of legend --the Legion Blade-- which is said to be possessed by one thousand murdered souls. Driven by his love for the mystical and a certain fondness for the client's physical form, Kieran accepts the job, trusting the grunt work to his long-suffering companion.
