The nineteenth century was period in which the piano became increasingly popular not only in the concert hall, but also in the more intimate surroundings of the home. The Romantic composers were drawn to the expressive and sonorous qualities of this new instrument, and left a wealth of repertoire to be enjoyed by the modern-day pianist.
These five volumes of piano repertoire explore those musical riches, with works by great names such as Chopin, Schumann and Debussy as well as pieces by lesser-known composers from the period. The anthology covers a range of keys, time signatures and moods and will provide invaluable repertoire through the grades.
