PIANO CYCLE "GALAXIES" WITH SUCH WONDERFUL YOUNG MUSICIANS! 🌌

What a joy it is to compose for children and to share my piano cycle "Galaxies" with such wonderful young musicians!

Eight years ago, in Cambridge, I composed Galaxies, just a few steps away from the former office of the great astrophysicist Stephen Hawking. Returning there to share this music with the inspiring young musicians of the Suzuki School was deeply moving and brought the journey of this work full circle. ✨.png

A heartfelt THANK YOU to Betty and Stephen Power for your warm welcome, generosity, and wonderful organization. It was an unforgettable musical adventure! ❤️.png

'Here is proof that attractive, convincing contemporary music of substance can be written for elementary level players: this collection of nine intergalactic miniatures will be suitable for players of grade 1 level, yet never succumbs to musical clichés. Régis Campo writes ostinatos, pieces in two pitch centres, uses clusters, white notes only, syncopated rhythms, contrasted colourings and - in the final piece - continuous sustaining pedal. Titles such as Galaxy of the five Suns, The expanding galaxy and Infinite Spaces stimulate the imagination, and springboard a sense of wonder and spaciousness that the notes on the page justify and confirm. A really useful and rewarding anthology that deserves Wide distribution and use.'
Alexander Thompson - Piano journal (European Piano Teachers' Association) n°119
Pépites pédagogiques
"Les Galaxies de Régis Campo (Lemoine), neuf courtes pièces faciles et pleines d'humour, séduiront certainement les tout débutants lassés des petites valses et menuets d'un style strictement classique. Les harmonies inventives initient des jeunes oreilles à un langage avant-gardiste tout en cultivant des acquis importants au piano : l'égalité des cinq doigts, la pulsation régulière, les techniques des mains croisées et des déplacements...
Si I'on aurait aimé davantage de mélodies en clé de fa, les tessitures variées et la forte présence des altérations assureront une bonne maîtrise de lecture. [...]"
