Overview
Poulenc: Selected Piano Pieces is a collection of 30 works for piano solo by French composer Francis Poulenc. Featuring repertoire identified as Intermediate to Early Advanced, it is intended for pianists, teachers, performers, and admirers of twentieth-century French piano music seeking material for learning, repertoire study, recital preparation, or personal enjoyment.The collection ranges from the Five Impromptus and three selected Improvisations to the complete Mouvements Perpetuels, selected Nocturnes, selections from Promenades, Suite for Piano, Trois Pieces, Valse from Album des Six, and selections from Villageoises. Bringing this varied music into one volume makes it convenient to explore contrasting moods, rhythmic ideas, textures, and expressive colors across Poulenc's piano repertoire.The selection places lyrical writing alongside lively dances, sharply characterized miniatures, and more expansive works, giving pianists opportunities to develop interpretation while building a varied Poulenc repertoire. It also provides teachers with a useful source of contrasting works for lessons, study, and performance.Song ListA Cheval * A Pied * Coda * Five Impromptus - IV. Violent * Five Impromptus - III.
