From the Publisher
It is often the case that at the end of a concert a soloist is requested to perform an additional item not listed in the programme, in other words an encore. In general the piece that is chosen is short and emphasises the expressive qualities of the instrument as well as the musical ability of the soloist. In this collection you will find a series of works that are suitable as encore pieces due to their duration and technical content. On the CD you will find a complete recording of each piece which you can use as a guide before performing the solo part with the piano accompaniment.
