The Yamaha Piano Library, which began in the 1980s, is a series designed to provide students with new teaching materials and repertoire essential to music education. Today, pianists all over the world are required to play pieces from different eras with technique and sensitivity that reflect the characteristics of the music of that period. To meet these demands, this series offers a wide range of piano compositions from different periods, regions, and styles. Many of these pieces are not included in other collections and are selected as required pieces for competitions each year.
This fascinating collection includes compositions from Germany, one of the leading countries of the Romantic period, as well as from all over Europe, Russia, the United States and other regions, ranging from the less frequently played to the standard pieces in a well-balanced manner. Arranged in order of difficulty so that they can be played according to the student's skill level, the 31 pieces composed for the piano by Romantic composers are selected for students studying at Bayer's later levels.

Having been considered as a 'fashionable' and 'cliché' composer of his day, Hahn's Piano Works remain unknown. Love Pieces and other hitherto unpublished Piano works, however, shatter these prejudices held, representing theengaging diversity of the composer's music. Venezuelan born Reynaldo Hahn (1875-1947) entered the Paris Conservatoire at 10 years old. He received a high standard of musical education from Decombes, Lavignac, Dubois and Massenetbefore becoming a prolific and versatile composer himself, writing works for all genres. For Hahn, music was a magical art and his Piano compositions often contain expressions of his otherwise hidden emotions and moods. Suitablefor intermediate standard pianists, Hahn's Love Pieces and other hitherto unpublished Piano works provide pleasant and evocative short pieces, incorporating a range of expressions, rhythms and other musical features.

This series of easy piano pieces for teaching purposes presents pupils in the early and early-middle stages with a careful selection from well-known and less-known compositions by important masters. The individual volumes are deliberately kept small in compass, since it is more stimulating for children if the literature used for instruction is changed frequently. Amongst the numerous piano works of the composer, pianist and music publisher Anton Diabelli there are some instructional works for piano duet (four hands at one piano) that have retained their freshness and value to this day as the Melodie Studies, op. 149. These attractive short pieces will still appeal to today's piano-playing young people. In the original version, the secondo part is designed for the teacher. In the present edition, this part has been rearranged in such a manner that it, too, lies within the capacities of the student. Heinz Walter, Salzburg, Fall 1974.
