The Quiet Revolutionary of the Piano – Fauré’s Complete Piano Works Now on Piano Street
In the pantheon of French music, Gabriel Fauré (1845–1924) often seems a paradox—an innovator cloaked in restraint, a Romantic by birth who shaped the contours of modern French music with quiet insistence. Piano Street now provides sheet music for his complete piano works: a body of music that resists spectacle, even as it brims with invention and brilliance. Read more

Clementi's op24 no.2 1st movt....cadenza
on: October 10, 2011, 08:15:12 AM
Although the editor of my copy of this piece advises not to play a cadenza at the end of the movement, my student has prepared a short one with a little hint of Mozart's Magic Flute  overture. Now he wants to play it at his exam and I'm a little apprehensive!! Any advice?

One of my students did an improvistory section of the same piece using the opening motive and took his exam with it. It went well. Highly praised.

As an examiner myself, I enjoy students showing imagination and creativity. The cadenza was suggested by Clementi himself. Therefore, go for it!

Yes yes yes! Please do you part to bring back the art of improvisation to the world of "classical" music!
