Piano Pieces for one hand alone (left hand alone and right hand alone)

There is only a limited number of piano pieces available for left hand alone, and even less for the right hand alone.

With more than 150 Piano Pieces for one hand alone (79 for the left hand alone and 79 for the right hand alone) I may be one of the most prolific composers of One-Hand-Piano-Music!

These one-hand piano pieces were developed as a compositional and pianistical challenge, but especially I had persons in mind, that only have one usable arm or one hand, due to a disability or an accident, and who still would like to play interesting neoclassical piano music.

I am welcoming all pianists, especially those with a disability, to send me their recordings!

Most of the pieces are available in a version for Piano Left Hand Alone and Piano Right Hand Alone.

For better readability the pieces are notated in 2 systems, but should be played with one hand alone.

Pedal usage is recommended / necessary.
