Marie Bigot for Piano
Publisher Desc.
Discover the music of the woman who taught Fanny and Felix Mendelssohn and Franz Schubert. Marie Kiene Bigot de Morogues (1786-1820) was a leading performer of her day who championed the works of her friends Joseph Haydn and Ludwig van Beethoven. The fifty-six page volume contains her four-movement Sonate and the Suite d'etudes. Bigot's compositions show a sensitive, gifted composer writing in an early Romantic style while maintaining Classic conventions of form. American Music Teacher says, "Commendations to Harbach Music for beginning this series on French women composers." Piano and Keyboard maintains that these sonatas "have both poetry and brilliance and are well suited to smaller hands."
