Night Journey in Bb minor

William Gillock

What's this piece like?
Gillock's 24 Lyric Preludes in Romantic Style is a wonderful collection of miniature pieces that range from late beginner to late intermediate levels. Inspired by Chopin's preludes, this set also features pieces in all 24 major and minor keys. This piece has a brave and bold character and it is a great short study in broken octaves and blocked chords.
Who's this piece for?
An excellent piece for intermediate level pianists who are working on their technique.
