“Morgenstern – A literary piano cycle” (PDF)

Thirty piano pieces inspired by poems by Christian Morgenstern

Heavy

From Markus Schimpp

Audio example: “A wild boar and a tame pig” (further audio examples in the description)

Markus Schimpp, takes us into a wondrous and colorful world of sound, in which his piano miniatures are directly juxtaposed with the original source of inspiration: The cheerful, whimsical, philosophical and imaginative poems of Christian Morgenstern.

A great pleasure for advanced piano players and listeners alike to hear the poems and to trace and discover the musical ideas in the piano pieces. A wonderful collection, also ideally suited for the performance of individual pieces and poems.
