Leopold Godowsky

The Godowsky Collection Vol.5

This volume features Godowsky's 46 miniatures for four-hands where the student in five-finger position plays the 'primo' and the teacher plays an interesting and sometimes challenging accompaniment in the 'secondo'. Beautifully written, Rachmaninoff used these miniatures with his own students. Complete with scholarly commentary and detailed analysis, this handsome book should be part of any piano teacher's library. Words of praise for Godowsky's Miniatures: 'The Miniatures have sincerely delighted me and deserve by reason of their excellent qualities to become very popular.' - Sergei Rachnaninoff 'These charming pieces present a real novelty for which teachers will not fail to be grateful.' - Percy Grainger
