Pianist magazine from Warners Group Publications now has a digital version for subscribers—making it easier to access older copies.

The Pianist archive was created in partnership with Exact Editions and offers over 80 issues of fully searchable content dating back to 2010. The new service makes back editions of the magazine available seamlessly across the web, iOS, and Android. Pianist magazine was launched in October 2001 and is now heading into its third decade.

It offers a range of content for subscribers including over 38 pages of inspiring scores, informative articles and learning tips, in-depth education articles, interviews with renowed piano players, competitions, news about piano makers, sheet music, and album reviews.

The new digital issue of Pianist also allows for an interactive experience, including featuring video content of pianists in concert around the world and expert teachers giving in-depth masterclasses.

On the Exact Editions platform, navigation is intuitive and the advanced search function allows keywords to be located across the full archive, so specific content in the magazine can be found with just the click of a button. Pianist members benefit from unlimited access to the full digital archive and will receive the latest issues as soon as they are published.

“The new digital format of Pianist looks visually appealing and engaging,” adds pianist Erica Worth, who has served as Editor of Pianist magazine for 22 years. “We’re excited for our content to reach the new and international audiences that use the Exact Editions platform, particularly institutions.”

“We are pleased that Pianist have joined our platform and that we are part of bringing this renowned magazine to new digital audiences,” adds Managing Director of Exact Editions, Daryl Rayner. “Memberships are becoming a popular model for publishers who want to strengthen their digital offering whilst creating a sense of community amongst their readers—Exact Editions’ technology is the perfect fit for publications like Pianist that want to achieve this.”
