While this book is not exhaustive, it provides a basic training, on which you can improve with practice. The pieces include a number of standards and several original works especially written to help the student. If you obtain a few pieces of sheet music of jazz or standards, you will be able to adapt them to your level of playing and your personality, and if you join a group you will be able to improvise using chord symbols which give the chords to be used. Above all, remember that a successful accompaniment depends on knowing the theme perfectly.

“Thes e real masterpieces, even if only a few minutes long, are of tremendous melodiousness and expressiveness!”, Franz Schubert said about Friedrich Kuhlau's sonatinas.

The four Sonatinas Op. 88 were written in 1827, i.e. during Friedrich Kuhlau's middle creative period, even before the great success of the opera “Elfenhügel.&r dquo; and the year of Beethoven's death. All four works contain beautiful melodic ideas, but Sonatina Op. 88 No. 3 with its minor tonality, its free treatment of form and tempo in the first movement and the lively last movement is something special. Of medium difficulty, this sonatina is great fun to play.

This edition is accompanied by a preface and “Teaching Notes” by Monika Twelsiek. It is part of the new Schott Student Edition series which offers varied literature at five different levels of difficulty, from 1 (easy) to 5 (difficult), for instrumental lessons.
