The G. Schirmer Piano Collection contains 33 works by 25 composers from the 20th and 21st centuries. If you or a friend love contemporary piano “classics”, this is the book to have! Many pianists are at least somewhat familiar with Alexander Tcherepnin‘s Bagatelles Op. 5, Khatchaturian’s Toccata, Kabalevsky’s Four Preludes, Op. 5, or Muczynski’s Six Preludes, Op. 6. How about trying Antheil‘s “Sonatina (Death of the Machines)”, Brubeck‘s “Dad Plays the Harmonica”, or Adams’ “China Gates”? These are serious works, and each one has its challenges. They are well worth the effort to learn. This collection of sheet music has a wonderful blend of newer compositions to explore.
