The Contemporary Piano Literature series is devoted to smaller keyboard works written by composers who have achieved prominence in the 20th century, many specifically commissioned for the Frances Clark Library. Book 3 features vibrant solos by Bartók, Gretchaninov, Tcherepnin, Cyril Scott, Kabalevsky, Shostakovich, and Douglas Moore. Informative biographies and attractive portraits bring the composers alive for students of all ages.
