Symphony Toppings: Virtual Orchestra Accompaniment Tracks That Transform Piano Study Pieces into Grand Piano Concertos! (Vol. 1: Burgmüller's 25 Easy and Progressive Studies, Op. 100 No. 1~13)

As a piano student, you've probably played many classic piano teaching pieces. While these pieces are beautiful, do you sometimes find them boring to practice or not exciting enough to perform?

That's exactly why Symphony Toppings was created.

What is "Symphony Toppings"?

Symphony Toppings is a collection of virtual orchestra accompaniment tracks arranged by Wiwi Kuan. It works directly with your existing classic piano materials, transforming simple etudes into exciting piano concertos!

The Philosophy Behind Symphony Toppings

When creating these accompaniment tracks, my philosophy was simple: although these pieces are commonly used by beginners, I refused to arrange them with a "beginner-oriented" mindset.

I didn't want them to have that "cute, simplistic feel" common in typical beginner accompaniment tracks. Instead, I arranged them as if they were "concert hall-worthy piano concertos that I myself would be proud to perform." The goal was to transform beginner pieces into works that even advanced players would want to perform - pieces that match "how I believe they should sound."

In terms of arrangement, I've completely redesigned the harmonies to be more beautiful and modern-sounding, while keeping the original piano score completely unchanged. Therefore, Symphony Toppings accompaniments not only work perfectly with your existing piano sheet music, but when you play along with them, you might discover new musical directions and possibilities that weren't present in the original pieces.

I've invested considerable time and effort into this project, and I hope you can feel the love I've put into it when you use it!
