Chess-themed project
Together with my friends Paul Poston and Nikolas Sideris, we are working on a set of 12 piano pieces, with a chess-themed subject.
Aim is to write contemporary educational music. Students do not only learn piano technique from practicing these pieces, but also get to know some more contemporary classical compositional ideas.
Preliminary list of works:
- King (NS)
- Queen (JC)
- Rook (NS)
- Bishop (PP)
- Knight (JC)
-
Pawn (PP)
- Checkmate (NS)
- Draw (JC)
- Gambit (PP)
- Castling (PP)
- Fork (JC)
- Combination (NS)
