With Piano Album, Henle celebrates the 75th anniversary of its Urtext editions. With 17 classical piano pieces, the publisher takes a foray through music history and offers a selection of much-played piano pieces. These range from Bach to Gershwin and thus cover essential works of the classical period.
The scores are at an easy to intermediate level, making them ideal for slightly advanced students. Classically oriented piano lessons in particular will benefit immensely from this edition, as it provides excellent insight into the genre and furthermore provides ideal performance material.
