At other times, he simply enjoys demonstrating the stark differences between the \"classical\" piano piece and world music. Enjoy pieces in samba style, with Cuban rhythms or jazzy-Arabic-like scales. These pieces are fun to play, making Jean Kleeb's \"Beethoven Around the World\" a true musical pleasure. About the composer: When it comes to music, Jean Kleeb is a globetrotter. A Brazilian of Swiss descent, he has been living in Germany for many years. Travelling the world with his music, he is always seeking new sources of musical inspiration. As a composer, pianist, choral conductor and lecturer, he regularly amazes and entertains his audiences with his boundless musicality and compositional ease.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Bärenreiter","offers":[{"title":"Printed Edition","offer_id":41431801495740,"sku":"BA10931","price":25.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Digital Download","offer_id":46864745922748,"sku":"BA10931D","price":25.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0606\/2823\/8524\/files\/0d5a7e864a7d69e7f39c4d0229ea33fe.jpg?v=1752094229"},{"product_id":"beethoven-goes-jazz-barenreiter","title":"Beethoven Goes Jazz","description":"\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eComposer\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ludwig van Beethoven (1770-1827)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArranger\u003c\/strong\u003e: Jean Kleeb (1964-)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli class=\"binding hidden\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBinding\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISMN\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003cspan class=\"book-barcode\"\u003e9790006566129\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003cspan class=\"book-width\"\u003e9.6\u003c\/span\u003e x \u003cspan class=\"book-length\"\u003e12.2\u003c\/span\u003e inches\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli class=\"book-pages\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePages\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"one-half columns\"\u003e \u003ch4\u003eDescription\u003c\/h4\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"feature_divider\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cp\u003eLudwig van Beethoven had the ability to create an entire musical universe from the most unassuming and minuscule motif.

The richness of detail, transparency and polyphonic structure of Bach's music are also important for the works in this collection. Pianists should not expect jazzy variations of his works. Rather, classical and (late) romantic music, ragtime, jazz, samba, bossa nova, salsa, Balkan, minimal music, pop, gospel, atonal, African and oriental sounds are interwoven with Bach's music, which is quoted and reinterpreted. This might serve as an inspiration to play Bach's piano works as a \"counterpoint\" to the pieces in this edition.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Bärenreiter","offers":[{"title":"Printed Edition","offer_id":43750864191676,"sku":"BA10653","price":28.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Digital Download","offer_id":46865064689852,"sku":"BA10653D","price":28.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0606\/2823\/8524\/files\/1a464ee3e8179ca56196046c799864e7.jpg?v=1752414872"},{"product_id":"kleeb-handel-goes-world-barenreiter","title":"Kleeb: Handel Goes World","description":"\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eComposer\u003c\/strong\u003e: George Frideric Handel (1685-1759)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArranger\u003c\/strong\u003e: Jean Kleeb (1964-)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eInstrumentation\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003cspan class=\"edition-instrumentation\"\u003ePiano\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli class=\"binding hidden\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBinding\u003c\/strong\u003e: Saddle-Stitch\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISMN\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003cspan class=\"book-barcode\"\u003e9790006579396\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003cspan class=\"book-width\"\u003e9.6\u003c\/span\u003e x \u003cspan class=\"book-length\"\u003e12.2\u003c\/span\u003e inches\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli class=\"book-pages\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePages\u003c\/strong\u003e: 42\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"one-half columns\"\u003e \u003ch4\u003eDescription\u003c\/h4\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"feature_divider\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cp\u003eJean Kleeb places Handel's work in an intercultural dialogue, inspired by musical styles from around the world.
