Stephan Beneking, composer, is based in Berlin, Germany. Beneking s orginal compositions are in neo-classical, melodic style for piano solo. His repertoire comprises more than 350 piano works so far and his music is being played by hobby and professional pianists in many countries. All scores/sheet music can be downloaded for free on www.beneking.com to make the music available to all interested pianists. The unique melodies and melancholy in his pieces attract listeners all over the world, even comparing him with the likes of Chopin, Schuman and Schubert. Pianists appreciate the sudden changes, little surprises and sparkling creativity, that make the pieces enjoyable to play. Beneking s style of "pure piano" means literally "crafted" piano works, that concentrate on the pure melody aspect, while the omission of any tempo, dynamics and pedal markings gives every pianist the possiblity to develop his/her own understanding of the work, thus making every single interpretation an unique piece of art, joint product of composer and pianist. His most famous works are the series of 10 Valses melancoliques, of which the"Valse melancolique No. VIII - le desir eternel" won the international Free-Scores Classical Piano contest in 2013. Many of his works are called "R ves" (dreams) or "Petits R ves" (dreamlets, little dreams) and refer to relatively short musical ideas, even miniatures, like a short musical "breath". Other works were inspired by Nature (Printemps, Little spring, The last flight of the Cranes, Dances on icy waters), Poetry and Myths (Melusine, Valkyries), the Death (Sprudelnder Geist in memory of his father) or the dramatic events of the Shoah (Petr Ginz, Kristallnacht). Beneking mainly composes in series of works with a certain theme or connection, often in combination with a compositional challenge (e.g. compositions for one hand alone or piano works on black or white keys only).

"24 Valses melancoliques for one hand alone" (12 for the right hand and 12 for the left hand, in each minor tonality). These one-hand-pieces were developed as a compositional and pianistical challenge, but especially I had persons in mind, that only have one arm or one hand, due to a disability or an accident, and who still would like to play interesting neoclassical piano music.

After the great success of my series "Zita in Wonderland" with 24 neoclassical piano miniatures for children and beginners, I have now composed another series of more challenging pieces for young Pianists. My aim was to create original works, that are relatively easy to play but nevertheless interesting and challenging modern classical music in "pure piano Beneking-Style". I hope that many young Pianists (or adult beginners) will enjoy them As with all my works, there are no markings in the scores, because I would like to encourage even the young Pianists (maybe with the help of their teachers) to develop an individual interpretation of the piece. Pedal usage is recommended. The 24 Nocturnes are in ascending order from C Major to B Minor (like Bach Well-Tempered Piano). Therefore Pianists can play the easier tonalities (e.g. C Major, A Minor, G Major, E Minor etc.) first and then play the more challenging tonalities.
Adveniat - 24 classical piano pieces for christmas time "Adveniat" is a series of works in Bach-like baroque style. Originally 4 pieces composed for the four peaceful "advent" sundays, I continued this series to 24 pieces in all major and minor tonalities, like a musical advent calendar from 1st to 24th of december.

After the great success of my series "Valses melancoliques" in 2012 and my "Valses melancoliques II - The Swans" in 2013, I decided to create a 3rd series of melancholic classical piano waltzes, called "Dance of the Cranes" ("Tanz der Kraniche").
