Grade 5 Piano Anthology: Examination Pieces for 2023 and 2024
Grade 5 Piano Anthology: Examination Pieces for 2023 and 2024
The Edition Peters Grade 8 Piano Anthology has long been a popular resource
for anyone approaching this important milestone examination. In September
2022 Edition Peters will release a new Grade 8 Anthology to support the
new (2023/2024) Syllabus and, for the first time, will issue new anthologies to
support pianists studying at or preparing for Grades 5, 6 and 7. Also new for
this year: a selection of lesser-known additional repertoire suitable for the
own-choice piece in the new Performance Exams.
The four new Piano Anthologies for Grades 5, 6, 7 and 8 2023/2024 comprise a
broad selection of examination pieces from lists A, B and C of the Associated
Board syllabus. The anthologies support students preparing for the Practical
Exam or for the new Performance Exam. Those preparing for the Performance
Exams are aided by Performance Notes by Norman Beedie (Lecturer in
Classical Improvisation, Piano and Conducting at the Royal Conservatoire of
Scotland), which give advice on technique and interpretation for each piece,
and guidance on preparing an effective programme. The pieces in this volume
are drawn from the extensive range of piano music in the Edition Peters
catalogue – one of the widest available. With candidates able to offer an ownchoice
work in the Performance Exam, each Anthology contains additional
lesser-known repertoire suitable for the exam.
