摘要：In Malaysia, the most commonly used piano syllabi used by piano teachers have been the Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music (ABRSM), Trinity College London (TRINITY), and London College of Music Examinations (LCM). A quick survey on the exam syllabi shows that even though there are pieces from the 20th century, almost none of the pieces use extended techniques, or techniques beyond the conventional sense. Coming from a classical piano background herself, the researcher would like to set an example for the younger generation in Malaysia by including piano works that use extended techniques in her recital through a practice-led research, having the recital itself as part of the research output. The main objective of this research is to build a concert repertoire for piano that includes different kinds of extended techniques, with a sub objective to showcase how notable composers like Henry Cowell, György Kurtág, and Frederic Rzewski incorporate extended techniques in their compositions written for the grand piano since the early 20th century.
