Piano Music by Women Composers - Book 1

When editor Immanuela Gruenberg embarked on the task of curating these collections, her mission was clear: to gather captivating and enchanting compositions that would resonate with students, inspire teachers, and captivate audiences. Furthermore, she was determined to shine a spotlight on the works of as many talented female composers as possible.

In the first volume, you'll discover a treasure trove of 40 pieces tailored for upper elementary to early intermediate level musicians. The second book delves into the rich repertoire with 30 compositions suited for intermediate to upper intermediate skill levels, all contributed by a remarkable lineup of 21 women composers.

Both books don't stop at the music; they provide short biographical insights into each composer, offering a glimpse into the lives behind the compositions. Additionally, editor Immanuela Gruenberg graces each collection with her own preface, adding a thoughtful and insightful touch to these musical masterpieces.
