![]() ![]() ![]() Let’s therefore take a moment to consider Gillock’s seminal importance before reviewing this essential new compendium…Īt a time when many educational composers in Europe were clinging to the thought that children would prove Schoenberg prescient in his pronouncement that modernist, atonal musical language would become their lingua franca, Missouri-born Gillock was pioneering the more populist approach to educational music that has in fact become today’s global norm. All of the original eight volumes (still available separately) also now appear in one newly edited and engraved volume. There’s little doubt in my mind that William Gillock (1917-1993) was one of the most significant educational piano composers of the twentieth century, and it’s a delight to be reviewing The Willis Music Company‘s new complete edition of the Accent on Gillock series.
