The present collection consists of a number of petty compositions most of which are within easy reach by young pianists of an intermediate technical level. In a lot of compositions for pianoforte, Mr Martinu has had himself inspired by children's world; he has been very close to children's imagination in a few cycles of miniatures for piano, especially in his three books of Puppets, as well as in Fables, Compositions for Children etc. Even his compositions of simple instrumental stylization possess a musical invention and an interesting musical description, such as the merry onomatopoeic trifle A Procession of Cats at Solstice Night. Little Eve's Composition and Contemplation, both of which were published in 1935 and 1936 in the music supplement to the magazine Eva, are educationally and musically priceless for young pianists with whom they arouse a sense for a modern expression. A touching meditation for piano are the Recollections, a small recital composition of 1957, commemorating the 10th anniversary of the death of the Brno composer Vaclav Kapral. lt is dedicated both to his and his gifted daughter Vitezslava Kapralova's memory. Prelude and another composition without name are two remarkable achievements of young Mr Martinu. Even without looking at the date of origin, 1924, it may be easily recognized from the character of music that they are congenial to the recent stimulations of the Paris avantgarde of the twenties-both rhythmically and harmonically.
