Waltz on a Theme by Alban Berg

Post by jbc444 »

Hello!

I’m a composer and pianist from New Zealand and I’ve discovered much fantastic and rare music through this group so I wanted to share a free download of the sheet music for my “Waltz on a Theme of Alban Berg”.
It’s a short and relatively easy piece from my new album “Scenes Vol. 1” which is on iTunes here: http://itunes.apple.com/album/scenes-vo ... 1098359719
Cullen - Waltz on a Theme by Alban Berg.pdf
The theme is from Berg’s Piano Sonata Op. 1. I love this sonata but whenever I hear the opening I imagine it turning into a simple waltz rather than a tortured expressionistic maze.
(I realise this may be sacrilege to some...)

You can hear my recording of this piece here: http://soundcloud.com/jbcullen/waltz-on ... alban-berg

I will eventually offer sheet music for the whole album, and will post further pieces on here in future as well.

Thanks for trying it out!
