Join us for a free, one-hour webinar exploring two new piano collections perfect for intermediate to early advanced-level pianists and educators.

Immanuela Gruenberg will walk you through Scarlatti: 25 Selected Sonatas, her expertly curated selection of 25 sonatas drawn from Domenico Scarlatti's vast catalog of 555 works, spanning a range of levels and styles with pedagogical and performance notes on articulation, ornamentation, and interpretation.

Leah Claiborne will then present selections from Arise and Shine, a collection of 28 piano solos by Black composers including Florence Price, Valerie Capers, Ulysses Kay, and Samuel Coleridge-Taylor, among others. This music honors a rich and often overlooked legacy.

Both collections will bring fresh, inspiring repertoire to your teaching studio or performing library. Join us live for the chance to win a $100 gift card to halleonard.com!
