Best Piano Music: Recent Episodes
Carlos Márquez
Classically trained pianist. I enjoy playing not only the traditional repertoire but also pieces from unusual composers.
A majestic and solemn work that offers young pianists a taste of choral-style music within a solo piano setting
Schumann’s New Year's Eve, the closing piece of Album für die Jugend, Op. 68, is a reflective and hopeful work.Its moderate tempo invites players to explore a nuanced sense of timing and emotional warmth, perfectly suited for advanced students ready to express deeper musical subtleties. New Year's Eve combines nostalgia and optimism in a gentle, captivating farewell to the set.
Little Fugue stands out as one of the most challenging in the set. This piece, with its intricate counterpoint and layered voices, demands both technical skill and deep musical understanding, making it best suited for the very advanced young pianist.
This is a beautifully evocative piece that captures the calm, yet melancholic spirit of northern landscapes.

Composer Ricardo Castro (1864-1907) was a Mexican concert pianist and composer. He wrote for both piano and symphony orchestra.
I found this valse well written and worth it to be listened to -at least once.
The score is in the public domain and freely available at IMSLP. It was first published in 1908.
Composer Vicente Costa Nogueras was born in Alcoy (Alicante) in 1852 and died in Barcelona in 1919. He was a composer, soloist and piano teacher.
Felipe Pedrell (1841 – 1922) was a Spanish composer, guitarist and musicologist. Among his main direct disciples are Isaac Albéniz, Enrique Granados, Cristòfor Taltabull, Pedro Blanco, Joaquín Turina and Manuel de Falla.
This is another fun short piano piece by this Brazilian composer from the beginning of the XX century.

Atrevido , Brazilian tango published in 1913 Casa Arthur Napoleão (Sampaio, Araújo & Cia.), dedicated to his friend Dr. Jorge Fragoso. The son of the dedicator stated, in an interview with the biographer Luiz Antonio de Almeida:
"My father was graduating in medicine when he met Ernesto Nazareth. He was leaving college and going to play at Cinema Odeon, listening to Nazareth. From there, a friendship was born that would last a lifetime. After graduating, my father moved to São Paulo, even hosting the composer in our house. On one of my father's trips to the Odeon, Nazareth introduced him to new music. And since he had, my father, some notion of music called Nazareth's attention to an "oversight". as to the number of bars contained in a certain part of that song, or something along those lines. He then looked at my father and said:
' - You're pretty cheeky, huh!...'
And what was my father's surprise when Nazareth appeared with the 'Tango' Atrevido , dedicated to him..."

The composer writes: "I have made this score for my grandmother, because now she is in an hospital for lung problems." "My grandma is finally out after 1 month and half of hospital!" (Giulio Mendozza, 2020)

"I thought about this song during a very boring lesson, so I called it a dream because I was almost falling asleep." -Giulio Mendozza 2020.
"I live in Italy, and we are near a new lockdown, so, i can only escape from my house only with fantasy and piano." -Giulio Mendozza Nov. 2020.
What people are already saying about this piece (in MuseScore):
"What a beautiful composition! I am very surprised that this is your first piece - it's wonderful!"
"It's beautiful. Very Downton Abbey :)"
"Beautiful piece. It makes me think of staring up at the sky, looking at the shining stars in the night."
"This weekend I went to a park near my house, and I was inspired by birdsong. Surely the melody composed from the birds is much more beautiful than the one I wrote, but I tried it anyway." -Giulio Mendozza.

I still remember being ten or eleven years old and listening to this one in a student recital in the conservatory. Great times!
A small choir in a church sings as the listeners meditate. Kids cannot wait to go back outside to play.
Charming, but so short! Is happiness so brief? wait... if I play it slower... would it be as happy?
My sister used to play this one growing up. I can still remember her practicing the "fast" middle section. I even made some funny lyrics to go with it... and she was not happy with that.
(untitled), C major (based on "Prison-Terzetto" ("Euch werde Lohn in bessern Welten") from Beethoven's Fidelio)
After I recorded this I checked YouTube and found a bunch of kids playing this one. I guess is a popular piece for young pianists.
Published in 1867
I've never heard of the composer Wolf Ebann (1832-1888)... but take a few minutes to listen.
Wolf Ebann was a Lithuanian-Jewish composer born in 1832, in Kedainiai (in Lithuania, then part of the Russian Empire). He was first taught music (piano) by his father and uncle. From the age of 11 he studied violin in Lithuania and abroad. Later he became director of the orchestra in Kaunas. Between 1874 and 1884 he worked at the Vilnius Teacher Training Institute and he was appointed as the director of the Vilnius Department of the Russian Music Society and conductor of the Vilnius City Theater Orchestra. He died in Yalta on 10 November 1888.

"Here a small "etude", although it does not have the difficulty or virtuosity dimension to belong to that category as understood by romanticism, which defined this genre, but has some interesting musical ideas in my opinion, and in the technical aspect, it works especially arpeggios and transfer of the hand on the keyboard, while having to sing the melody." -Santiago Vega November 2019.

"I couldn't tell you who I am influenced by, it is probably everyone from Tchaikovsky to Radiohead, so I'm not really sure if these pieces fall under the genre of neo-classical, new classical, avant-garde, new wave, contemporary classical or one of the numerous other genres out there, but I do know that they come directly from my heart and soul." -Keith Hide.

"Comigo é na madeira , a Brazilian samba kept unpublished during the composer's life, and published in 2008 by the portal Musica Brasilis. For a while it was thought that his manuscript was incomplete, but it is indeed complete, with introduction, part A and part B. It was probably composed in the late 1920s and is one of the composer's last works. "

"Dengoso, maxixe published in 1907 by Casa Vieira Machado. It is the only maxixe in Nazareth's work, and not by chance, it was signed under a pseudonym: Renaud. Received some recordings by Brazilian bands in the first decade of the twentieth century, but a few years later would become one of the biggest international hits of Brazilian music (and perhaps the first in large-scale), when it was published in 1914 in the USA and Paris it became the great example of the maxixe, being danced in the halls of the 1910s"

composer: Julien Balbi (? - 1894) piano: Carlos Márquez
I don't know much about this composer, but I am playing this Nocturne in the 'romantic' tradition... it seems very fitting.

Thanks to Patrick Gordon-Davis for creating/editing the score. He wrote: "I copied the sheet music to Musescore because the sheet music is only available on one website and the pages of music are too small on the page and faded, and this is a song I would like to play. I think it would be nice (pun not intended; Balbi was apparently from the town of Nice.) for more people to hear this song!".
