Lori Ellen Rhoden provides a detailed exploration of key musical elements - including melody, harmony, texture, rhythm, technique, articulation, fingering, pedaling, and musical expression - found in intermediate-level Romantic style piano repertoire. For each element, Rhoden identifies concepts and skills that influence important technical, musical, and interpretive aspects of a piece. By emphasizing the mastery of concepts and skills in manageable settings and using the repertoire as a vehicle to achieve that goal, this book explores many aspects of technique and musicianship that are often only covered in more advanced piano study. It helps prepare students to become independent musicians who can approach unfamiliar repertoire with confidence. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eRepertoire collections by Amy Beach, Johann Burgmüller, Cécile Chaminade, William Gillock, Cornelius Gurlitt, Edvard Grieg, Robert Schumann, and Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky are included. Independent piano teachers and piano pedagogy students will find this a comprehensive, developmental compendium of Romantic style repertoire.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lori Ellen Rhoden\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798881805241\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Academic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/08\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 336\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.99h x 5.99w x 0.88d","brand":"Lori Ellen Rhoden","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48154052428031,"sku":"9798881805241","price":36.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c74c732c-6587-4007-8686-4fb606688112.jpg?v=1770787570","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/developing-intermediate-level-piano-performance-with-lori-ellen-rhoden-9798881805241","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
