Gail Lew\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCornelius Gurlitt was one of the later nineteenth century's most prodigious providers of well-graded piano music. The pieces in Opus 82 are important for development of technic, independence of the hands, and the playing of passagework for the young pianist. The pieces are all short and most use intervals no larger than a fifth. These excellent studies may be recommended for sight reading and transposition. Performance notes and impeccable editing by Gail Lew make these volumes indispensable for every piano student.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eItem No:\u003c\/b\u003e    00-ELM02021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e    Book\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e    64\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSeries:\u003c\/b\u003e    Belwin Edition: Early-Level Classics\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eGenre:\u003c\/b\u003e    Masterwork\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLevel:\u003c\/b\u003e    Early Intermediate\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eYear Published:\u003c\/b\u003e    2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e","brand":"ALFRED","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67731980419263,"sku":"ALF ELM02021 654979049401","price":9.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1335\/9063\/files\/00-ELM02021.jpg?v=1792729682","url":"https:\/\/www.imaginethismusic.com\/products\/alf-00-elm02021","provider":"Imagine This Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
