Schönbrunn Gardens

The pieces in Schönbrunn Gardens are written by young Austrian composers, who continue the old tradition of Vienna as a music metropolis. These easy to intermediate pieces cover a wide range of styles and so are ideal for working on aspects such as dynamics, phrasing and articulation. At the same time they are excellent performance pieces. On the enclosed CD professional musicians have recorded their interpretation of each piece as an example; then every player is invited to give his or her own interpretation with the play-along version. The piano accompaniment allows you to play the pieces together with a pianist, which is educationally even more valuable.
