Rediscover Rossini's Hidden Gems

Gioacchino Rossini, the renowned composer of The Barber of Seville and William Tell, stunned the music world by retiring from opera composition at the height of his career. For two decades, he retreated into seclusion, only to emerge again in 1855 with a new passion for chamber music. These private compositions, performed in his Paris salon for the elite, were not published until after his death. Today, they are known as Sins of Old Age, a treasure trove of 150 vocal and solo piano pieces that showcase the master's unparalleled skill and wit.

A Delight for Piano Enthusiasts

This selection of highlights from the 14-volume compilation of Rossini's piano works offers a fascinating glimpse into the composer's later style. With pieces like 'Mon Prélude Hygiènique du Matin,' 'Ouf! Les Petits Pois,' and 'Un Rêve,' pianists will find a delightful combination of sophistication and naiveté. Suitable for intermediate to advanced pianists, these works are both fun to learn and satisfying to perform.
