Originally compiled and edited by Louis Kí_hler, this edition contains some of the most popular keyboard sonatinas, rondos and other works (including symphonic transcriptions) of Beethoven, Clementi, Haydn, Kuhlau and Mozart, among others. In clarifying this edition, editor Allan Small has removed impractical fingerings and unnecessary accidentals found in other editions.

Such familiar works as Beethoven's "Sonatina in G" and Clementi's "Sonatina in C," Op. 36, No. 1 are balanced by lesser-known sonatinas of Latour, Wanhal, Halsinger and Pleyel. Palmer's helpful edition includes a brief introduction to sonatina form and a short biography of each composer. An excellent choice for early-intermediate to intermediate piano students.

This collection of sonatinas offers an ideal introduction to some of the easiest classical keyboard sonatinas. Key signatures are limited to only the familiar keys of C major, G major, and F major. This ideal collection for teaching elements of musical form includes written-out ornaments in footnotes, composer biographies, and careful attention to editorial details of fingering, phrasing, and pedaling. Includes sonatinas by Biehl, Haslinger, Latour, Attwood, Duncombe, Beethoven, and Clementi.
