Burgmüller – 18 Characteristic Studies, opus 109

December 23rd, 2009 in Piano Street Site News by | 11 comments

The sheet music of Burgmüller’s opus 109, 18 Characteristic Studies, has been published as Piano Street Editions together with recordings by Henrik Sandback.
This collection may be used as a sequel to the studies opus 100.
Each study challenges the player with a specific technical problem, inseparable from the main idea of the composition.
Like the earlier pieces, the Characteristic Studies are not concerned solely with technique – Burgmüller’s melodious and charming works always have a distinct musical appeal, and are also studies of character and mood.

    Thanks for these beautifully-executed pieces. I’ve had these Burgmueller books for some time, but have never played from them or really looked at them— that is going to change. Because of you, I now have an idea of what they have to offer— thanks!

    (And, where else would one hear these?)
