LATE INTERMEDIATE TO EARLY ADVANCED PIANO
John Alden Carpenter (1876–1951), a Chicago-born composer, crafted piano music rich in atmospheric textures, extended harmonies, and subtle jazz influences. Spanning the late Romantic to early modern periods, his work reflects Impressionist colors similar to Debussy, Ravel, and Stravinsky, yet with a uniquely American sensibility.
This edition presents two standout works:
Diversions – a colorful suite with shifting moods and textures
Tango Américaine – a vibrant, syncopated work blending classical form and Latin-American flair
Edited for Early Advanced pianists, this performance edition includes practice tips, interpretive guidance, and editorial notes addressing key technical and musical challenges. Ideal for recital use or repertoire expansion, these pieces introduce a fresh and deserving voice from the American piano tradition.
