- This book is a companion to our earlier volume on the teachings of Menahem Pressler, who is an internationally recognized piano soloist who has taught master classes around the world. The book provides comments and commentary by Pressler on an additional thirty-six piano masterpieces.
- The book includes commentaries taken from recordings of Pressler's own classes and include music examples and line numbers to guide readers who can follow along with their own copies of the score. Pressler has approved of all content in the manuscript.
- Also included are interludes with humorous short stories and anecdotes told by Pressler, which the book's peer reviewers enjoyed.
- The audiences for this book are piano teachers and performers who would benefit from the comments of a master teacher. This will also be of interest to amateur musicians familiar with Pressler through his concerts and recordings.
