Do you own Trinity’s ATCL book "A Recital Anthology - Piano Solo"?

ZigZagStory

Dear pianist friends,
I’m working on Mozart k332 sonata and might use it for a Trinity ATCL exam in the future.
They only allow using their edition but since I have another good urtext copy I will buy theirs only if I decide to take the exam.
I don’t know which version of the second movement they use (there are two versions for this sonata).
So if any of you own the ATCL book and can check for me I’ll be really grateful.

Does this video help? She says in the description that she's playing from the 2021 Trinity College edition.

Thank you! I didn’t think about checking YouTube. I listened to her and now I know which version to study.
(She plays with too much pedal imo..)

Hi ZigZagStory

I'm attempting to do (working towards very slowly!) ATCL currently, and own the Trinity recital anthology. However I don't even know where the 2nd movement starts. If you give me more detail about what you're looking for I can probably help.

However although in the syllabus it states use this book, when you look at Trinity's overall guidelines my interpretation is that any reliable edition can be used. So your urtext copy should be fine. I would check this with Trinity though!

Cheers

Hi Simonb!
Thank you for your help!
The second mvt is the adagio, and probably the easiest way to check is bar 26. See both versions here :

I think that the ATCL version is the one with the chromatic scale (and not the top version).

Which pieces did you choose for your ATCL exam?
I’m also working towards it very slowly. I haven’t done any tests before so we’ll see if I can get everything with the required quality..

Hi ZigZagStory

My diploma, if I ever get to record it, will consist of:

2 Scarlatti sonatas in G
Beethoven sonata in G op14 no 2
Coleridge Taylor - Deep River
Gershwin - The Man I Love & Oh Lady Be Good

This is what is shown in Trinity's recital book for bar 26 of mvt 2:

There is some explanatory text (by Steven Osborne) on each piece in the recital book, but I can't see anything that explains what the alternative 2 stave version at the top is. My teacher would probably know but I won't see her until nearer the end of this month.

Hope that's of some help.

Cheers

Cool choice!

My pieces so far:
Bach bwv 861
Chopin Polonaise op 26/1
Mozart k332
Schubert impromptu op 90/2
I might need to add another short piece to reach a 32 minutes performance duration.
