Edition Peters

Teachers keep coming back to Ferdinand Beyer's Elementary Method Op. 101 for piano studies, a foundational method book widely adopted in private studios. Brahms's Ein deutsches Requiem remains the top choice for advanced choral programs, while Jonathan Dove's Ring Out, Wild Bells and Sally Beamish's In the Stillness anchor the popular a cappella and SATB octavo selections.

Recent additions include John Cage's Renga and Sixty-Two Mesostics Re Merce Cunningham, Charles Tomlinson Griffes's Rhapsody in B Minor for piano, and Gloria Coates's Reaching for the Moon for flute, all published in June 2026.

John Cage is represented with 359 titles in the catalog, including his iconic 4'33'' (Tacet Version), a work that challenges students to think about silence and listening as compositional materials. His experimental approach spans from graphic notation to text-based scores.

Johann Sebastian Bach's 151 titles include the transcribed Cello Suites for Viola and core Baroque keyboard works. His music remains essential across private lesson studios and ensemble programs at every level.

Jonathan Dove contributes 114 titles, with Ring Out, Wild Bells serving as a favorite for school and community choirs seeking accessible, singable contemporary choral music with emotional depth. Dove's work balances technical interest with genuine accessibility.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's 123 titles anchor the collection's classical core, led by the Requiem in D minor—a staple for advanced choral ensembles preparing major concert works and competitions.
