6 Études pour la main gauche seule, Op.135

$6.00$30.00

By Camille Saint-Saens arr. Haque

I originally heard these on the radio for solo piano, and they sounded to me like wonderful virtuosic guitar pieces. Then when I found out they we’re pieces for Piano, Left Hand alone, it clicked. They made good guitar pieces, because they were set up for ONE hand, left hand on piano corresponding almost perfectly to left hand on guitar!

Over the years while touring and travelling I have chipped away at these, and they are truly great additions to the repertoire – melodic, yet modern.

These 6 movements are in Saint-Saens’ typical neo-baroque style, and set up like a traditional baroque suite, in six movements.

Prelude
Alla Fuga
Moto Perpetuo
Bouree
Elegie
Gigue
