Australian Women Composers' Piano Anthology Volume III
By Katie Zhukov
Regular price
$50.00
Grades Intermediate (5th) to Advanced (Dip.)
15 piano works by Wirripang-published, Australian Women Composers 2020.
Again, especially written and selected for this volume as edited by Katie Zhukov and it includes a CD of each work recorded by Katie Zhukov.
This third volume of new piano repertoire by Australian women composers is a companion to the Australian Women Composers’ Piano Anthology (2015) and Volume II (2017) published earlier by Wirripang.
Commissioning new work from established and emerging composers provides an opportunity for women’s voices to be heard in the Australian classical music arena that tends to be dominated by live and recorded performances of music by male composers. Introducing new generations of piano students to music by women composers helps drive the grassroots campaign for gender equality in Australian classical music.
The pieces vary in style from Romantic to contemporary, neo-classical, and jazz-influenced idioms.
Each work is accompanied by the composer’s biography, composer comments and pedagogical advice. The grading will assist teachers is choosing repertoire of appropriate difficulty for study and as extra lists for examinations.

Prelude Recomposed No 1
By Annie Burbank
Regular price
$25.00
Based on the JS Bach Prelude No. 6, from Book 1 of 'The Well-Tempered Clavier'
Cello and piano, MM90 c.7'00; MM80 c.8'00. Grade 6/7
The harmonic structure of the original Bach prelude has been followed - with the length of each chord doubled - and the prelude’s essential rhythmic features (steady left hand beat with triplets in the right hand) have been preserved, all providing an accompaniment to melodies that emerge in both the piano and cello parts.
