Players will also respond imaginatively to the varying styles and moods offeredin these colourful sketchbooks from the lively dances and mood pictures to the tender songs and gentle serenades.The five books in this series are graded in terms of difficulty Book 1 being relatively easy and Book 5 advanced.

Romantic piano music is particulary suitable for awakening and encouraging the pupil's desire to play with expression. In Volumes 2 and 3 of The European Piano Method (ED 7931, 7932, 7933) this expressive, cantabile playing is particularly encouraged. The two romantic supplementary books are specifically intended to further these qualities.
All the great masters of the Romantic era, from Schubert to Reger, are represented by small yet typical pieces. There are no pieces from Schumann's 'Album for the Young' as the complete album is essential teaching material. / Partition /

Originally intended as a symphony the Piano Concerto No. 3 in E-flat major was published as a one-movement work.

Magic Flute on Stage-Album for Children?Tomorrow I am going to write a collection of miniatures for children. For some time I have been thinking it would be good to alleviate the dearth of musical literature for children.? (From a letter Tchaikovsky wrote to Nadezhda von Meck on 30 April 1878) Tchaikovsky?s collection of piano pieces for children is subtitled ?Collection of easy pieces in the style of Schumann.? The instruments Pyotr Il?yich Tchaikovsky studied included the flute but he never wrote any music for it. How ever many of the miniatures from the Album for Children suit the flute perfectly - from the expressive and romantic Morning Prayer and Sweet Dream to the moretechnical Mazurka and Neapolitan Song. These touchingly lyrical miniatures and almost virtuosic dance pieces arranged for flute and piano will be loved by young flautists and met with enthusiasm by concert audiences.
