Anthology of 20th Century Piano Music Book 

Comb Bound Book of  Intermediate to Early Advanced Works by 37 Composers

This expansive 208-page collection presents a rich survey of piano music from the late 19th and 20th centuries—a period marked by bold innovation and stylistic diversity. Featuring works by 37 composers, the anthology spans a wide range of styles, from impressionism and expressionism to modernist and neo-classical movements.

Carefully selected for intermediate to early advanced pianists, each piece is accompanied by insightful historical context, composer biographies, and performance notes by Dr. Maurice Hinson. A valuable resource for students, teachers, and pianists exploring the depth and breadth of 20th-century repertoire.
