You can listen to these “12 SONGS WITHOUT WORDS” and play them yourself – solo or along with a playalong. The atmospheric pieces in the neo-classical style seem like film music. What sets this book apart: You can unravel the mystery of why the pieces sound the way they do and learn the tricks and techniques that are responsible for it.

In this book, the musician and composer Axel Schwarz, professor at the Baden-Württemberg Pop Academy, explains the compositional background of his pieces in a clear manner, without getting bogged down in music-theoretical excesses. This makes the book perfect for an easy introduction to composing your own modern piano pieces.

"With his music-pedagogical approach, Axel Schwarz fills the gap between the classical pop piano school and the source of inspiration for one's own composition in a neoclassical/pop context. A book that is suitable for both piano lessons and self-study.” - Prof. Udo Dahmen, Art. Director and managing director of the Pop Academy Baden-Württemberg
