Essence of One – Original Miniatures for Right Hand Alone & Left Hand Alone by Scott Price Intermediate to Late Intermediate Piano Solos
Essence of One is a collection of graded character pieces for right hand alone and left hand alone, composed to develop expressive control and hand independence. While rooted in major and minor tonalities, many of the pieces explore modal harmonies, hemiola, and shifting textures.
These one-handed solos serve as textural studies, focusing on melodic voicing, balance, and the art of expressive phrasing within a single hand. Pianists are encouraged to embrace freedom of interpretation, allowing time and space to move across the keyboard without feeling rushed.
Designed to build confidence, fluidity, and creative imagination, this collection supports both physical recovery and artistic exploration. The printed score offers a foundation — but the true beauty lies in the individual shaping of each performance.
