Bundle Contents
This Mozart bundle is designed as a broad and in-depth course for pianists who want not only to learn individual pieces, but to enter Mozart’s world more fully as performers and musicians.
At the heart of the bundle are around 12 hours of step-by-step video lessons by Denis Zhdanov, covering a range of Mozart works from beginner and intermediate level to advanced repertoire.
Because the selection includes pieces of different levels, this bundle is suitable for a wide range of students. And thanks to lifelong access, learners can return to the course later as they grow and gradually work through more advanced material at the right stage of their development.
The repertoire covered in the tutorial section includes:
12 Variations in C major, K. 265 — suitable for beginner and intermediate students
Fantasia in C minor, K. 475 — for advanced students
Sonata in C minor, K. 457, first movement — for advanced students
Sonata in F major, K. 332, complete — with the second movement accessible to intermediate learners, while the first and third movements are more suitable for advanced students
Sonata in A minor, K. 310, first movement — for advanced students
These lessons provide you with:
- Detailed step-by-step guidance on how to practise each work
- Fingering, pedaling, stylistic questions, and interpretive choices
- Strong focus on efficient, free, and tension-free piano technique
- Close attention to style, phrasing, character, and expressive logic
- Filmed with 3–4 cameras for clear multi-angle viewing
- Includes links to free sheet music or annotated PDF scores by Denis Zhdanov
These pieces are used not only as repertoire, but also as a way to build solid and transferable pianistic habits: hand position, movement principles, coordination, sound production, and technical awareness that can be applied far beyond Mozart.
But this bundle goes beyond instrumental instruction.
In addition to the piano tutorials, it includes a substantial lecture module of nine lectures on Mozart’s life, personality, artistic development, and aesthetic world. These lectures help students step into Mozart’s shoes, understand the society and circumstances in which he lived and worked, and gain a much more human and historically grounded sense of who he was. The lectures were written exclusively for our school by the outstanding author Aleksander Pustovit, whose work is especially valued for its depth in music, aesthetics, and cultural thought.
These lectures also reveal many fascinating details about Mozart’s works that are often overlooked by the general public, helping students learn to notice and appreciate the genius of details that can easily remain hidden without deeper guidance.
The bundle also includes a special lecture by composer Frederick Viner, devoted to a detailed analysis of the Sonata in C minor. Through this lecture, students will gain insight into the structure of Mozart’s music and the particular features of his compositional language through the eyes of a composer and analyst.
Taken together, this course offers a comprehensive and multi-dimensional musical education. It is not just a collection of piano lessons, but a serious resource for anyone who wants to improve their playing, deepen their understanding of Mozart’s style, broaden their artistic horizons, and receive a more complete conservatory-level introduction to this repertoire and its context.
