This beautiful volume is comprised of six works by great Russian composers. Arensky's Cuckoo is an excellent piece for contrast between staccato and legato playing. His Fugue on a Russian Theme is the perfect example to introduce the young pianist with fugal writing, incorporating subject, inversion, episode, stretto, and augmentation. Three exceptionally fine pieces by Gliere are skillfully crafted in the Romantic style. Rachmaninov's Russian Theme is written in the composer's richly pianistic style. (Intermediate/Late Intermediate).
