Pianophilia

This is a continuation of my presvious thread on this topic from the old PP board.

Now I realise the definition of 'Australian' (or any other nationality for that matter) can be a bit hazy since Benjamin, Grainger, Williamson etc although born in Australia lived and worked overseas for most of their lives, but this thread can be used for relevant works from all composers born in or else having spent significant time in Australia - yes, even William Vincent Wallace.

I'm reposting two pieces by Arthur Benjamin I play quite frequently. The Forest Peace piece is very peaceful, seriously

Hello ,
Clutsam H.G. Australian Composer
While looking through Australian National Library I found this and I was wondering if anyone had the rest?

No, I certainly don't - I take it it's not in the ANL?

No , the rest of etudes are not posted on ANL but I would very much like to have them. Try nr. 12 and nr.14 (my favourite).
Enjoy
Biljana

Few more by Benjamin

I will try. In the meantime another Clutsam. Regards

Clutsam? What a bizarre name! As my mother would say "what a name to go to bed with!"

This Chopin-derived piece found on my HD:

I would rather have that than Reginald Goss-Custard

not too difficult to perform but very pleasant.
