20-21st century piece
on: December 13, 2014, 05:17:10 PM
Hi, I don't know if I will get Kapustin sheet  music, so does anyone have recommendatios for so-called "advanced" works by people who were born in the 20th century that are not atonal and have limited dissonance that I can get for free or for 12$ or less?  Thanks!

(No Poulenc, Ravel, Joplin, Debussy, Scriabin, etc.)

I should think not! They were all born in the 19th century!

I like these  ;D



Shostakovich 3 Fantastic Dances.  Pretty easy to find, too.

Aram Kachaturian - He might have some stuff, I can only think of his Sonatina and Toccata for now.
         Sonatina / $8.95 - https://www.sheetmusicplus.com/title/sonatina-1959-sheet-music/3153999
         Toccata / $3.95 - https://www.sheetmusicplus.com/title/toccata-sheet-music/3152567

Dimitri Kabalevsky - Sonatinas / 12.99 - https://www.sheetmusicplus.com/title/the-sonatinas-sheet-music/3193848

There's a lot of stuff from a lot of composers, you can always look for them in IMSLP and they'll be free... look for Shostakovich's Preludes and Fugues and his 2nd Sonata in Bm.

Takemitsu wrote wonderful pieces, the RainTree Sketch II probably the best known:
