In this series, Schott presents demanding piano transcriptions of well-known works. The series comprises 14 editions, all volumes of which have been compiled with great care and given a special cover. Volume 14 contains a delicate piano paraphrase by the famous pianist Cyprien Katsaris of Johann Sebastian Bach's 'Badinerie', a smash hit in music history. Every eight bars of Bach are followed by the virtuoso 'commentary' of the Paris-based Katsaris. Ambitious pianists are certainly going to enjoy the virtuoso challenge of this effective arrangement.
