This series of easy piano music for teaching purposes presents pupils in the lower and lower middle grades with a carefully chosen selection of well-known and lesser-known compositions by important masters. The volumes are deliberately kept small in extent, since it is more stimulating for children to change the teaching material frequently. Carl Maria von Weber (1786-1826) composed three series of piano duets: opus 3, opus 10 and opus 60. The piano pieces opus 3, which he wrote at the age of 15, are, despite the modest demands made on playing technique, among the most inventive and melodically sensitive works for four hands of the post-classical period. Together with the four pieces from opus 3, an andante from opus 10 has been included in this folio. These five pieces have been arranged in a sequence such that in their entirety, the result is a balanced suite - in a formal sense - for four hands. (The scherzo opus 3. No. 3 has therefore been transposed into C major.) Heinz Walter, Salzburg, Autumn 1979.

The present series of easy piano music for teaching provides pupils in the lower and lower-middle grades with a careful selection of well-known and little-lmown compositions by important masters. Each book has intentionally been kept small in extent, since it is more stimulating for children to change the teaching material frequently. In the course of his brief creative life, Schubert wrote more than 200 dances and waltzes for piano, which he grouped together and published in sets. The technical difficulties, which are sometimes considerable, are greatly reduced by dividing the music up between four hands; a process which has been carried out without necessitating any major alterations to the original versions for piano solo. Ten of the most beautiful waltzes from different opus numbers have been selected for the present book. Heinz Walter, Salzburg, Fall 1974.
