The Essential Piano Repertoire Series This series of piano music presents solid teaching material from the masters in beautiful clear engravings uncluttered by over editing, enabling… the teacher to express individual preferences unhindered. Grade 2 in the series, edited by Mark Goddard, continues the Clifton Edition’s mission of presenting clear, musical teaching material drawn directly from the masters. Building on the success of the previous book, this Grade 2 book introduces slightly more challenging yet still accessible repertoire, allowing emerging pianists to develop technique, musicality, and stylistic awareness in equal measure. Contains a varied selection of works by Bach, Handel, Purcell, Schubert and more. Clifton Edition scores feature uncluttered engravings and minimal editorial markings. This design choice empowers teachers and students alike to shape phrasing, dynamics, and articulation according to personal taste and pedagogical goals. By stripping away excessive fingerings and performance notes, Mark Goddard’s edition places interpretive freedom at the forefront, encouraging young pianists to engage actively with the music rather than follow predetermined guidelines Previously published by Spartan Press.
