Dear all,
News update for the classical music lovers:
1. From the Maestro to the young pianists :
"Alicia's First Piano Book" has just been published ! This score contains 37 beautiful short pieces for young pianists by Ananda Sukarlan, ranging from very easy to moderately difficult. Many pieces were originally written for Ananda's daughter, Alicia Pirena, but then he continued writing other more difficult pieces. Apart from those, this book also includes 2 pieces for piano duet "Two pieces of cake" as well as 2 numbers from his music for Andibachtiar Yusuf's film "Romeo & Juliet", whose premiere in Indonesia on the 23rd of April is highly awaited. This is the first piano book written by a prominent Indonesian composer for young pianists.
For now, you can order the book through me, Chendra Panatan at
ycep@yahoo.com or hp: 0818.8910.38 .
