Beethoven: Moonlight Sonata 3rd Movement

A fast, dramatic and energetic end to the famous Moonlight Sonata, presto agitato - which means fast, in a hurry and agitated. The pianist gives a fantastic rendition of this high tempo work. Piano Sonata No. 14 Opus 27 No. 2.

Grieg: Arietta Opus 12 No. 1
Edvard Grieg
Delicate and tender, this beautiful track conveys a longing hopefulness with a slight melancholic tinge. Slow and graceful, this was the very first work in the 'Lyric Pieces' first book by Grieg who regarded it as one of his finest melodies.

Satie: Gnossienne No. 1
Erik Satie
Slow, ('Lent' in French), and free-flowing, this track evokes an almost daydream like state. This is the first of three works to be given the name Gnossienne name by Erik Satie to reflect this new style of composition.

One of the most famous classical pieces for solo piano. Delightfully playful and hugely popular, its melodies over left hand arpeggios are instantly recognisable.

Schumann: Arabeske Opus 18 In C Major
Robert Schumann
Playful melodies begin this intensely moving work. Schumann keeps the emotions ebbing and flowing as the dynamics rise and fall in this deeply accomplished composition which was written when he was just 29 years old.

Satie: Gnossienne No. 2
Erik Satie
The second Gnossienne has the instruction, 'avec étonnement', (with astonishment), to instruct the player to play slightly faster than the other two pieces. Still has lots of space and freedom of expression.

Tempo
Lento
A classical guitar study that is subtle, calm yet emotional and thought provoking. A simple melody is accompanied by a repetitive arpeggio which moves the piece along at a constant pace.

Liszt: Liebestraum No. 2
Franz Liszt
A mood of intense yet subdued emotion marks the overall feeling of the second Liebestraum composed by Liszt. More dynamic than the first and third parts it shows a less confident side whilst still retaining its passion and sentimentality.

Iradier: La Paloma
Sebastian Iradier
A solo guitar piece with hugely Hispanic and Latin overtones. This habanera, (or dance of Havana), has a wonderful swaying theme which transports you to exotic places and bars. Great for travel sequences.

Chopin: Grand Valse Brilliante Opus 18 E Flat Major
Frederic Chopin
Bristling with energy, this lively waltz for solo piano surges with huge confidence and presence. Requires great skill from the performer to keep up with the pace. Regarded by some as the first of Chopin's waltzes to be published.

Popular and amusing, this piano solo by Dvorak is the most famous of his '8 Humoresques'. A loose and flowing track which has been used in many humorous settings. Great for conveying a little comical, witty or satirical feeling.

Sor: Study In A Minor Opus 31 No. 20
Fernando Sor
A wonderful staccato performance is required to play this piece composed by Spanish classical guitarist Fernando Sor. Rigid and with a military feel, this piece marches off with confidence and positivity.
