With works by Clementi, Czerny and Cramer, Urtext Primo 6 contains easy piano music by three composers who all stood out as piano teachers publishing piano methods and study literature. Not only is there a selection of popular sonatinas by Muzio Clementi, there are also selected pieces by Carl Czerny which show that piano lessons do not necessarily have to be outdated and stuffy, and there also exists a repertoire by Johann Baptist Cramer (known from the studies of Cramer-Bulow) which is suitable not only for advanced students.

In this book, guitarist and music historian David Grimes presents 20 �??small sonatas�?� or sonatinas, complete with detailed performance notes and bio sketches of each of the contributing composers: Leonhard von Call, Matteo Carcassi, Ferdinando Carulli, Mauro Giuliani, Francesco Molino, and Antonio Nava.  While flexible, the early 19th-century sonatina form usually consists of 2 - 4 contrasting movements, here in guitar-friendly keys, making these pieces ideal for performance by intermediate-level students. 

In all but the most challenging passages, Grimes has intentionally kept fingering to a minimum to allow students to form their own concept of this critical skill. Then, as many bass notes in these pieces are played on open strings, the player must develop a sense of when to selectively damp dissonant tones or observe a rest�?? exposing and overcoming yet another shortcoming in the education of many guitarists.  

Most classic guitar teachers are familiar with the easy didactic studies by Carcassi, Carulli and Giuliani; Favorite Sonatinas offers more highly developed, but not yet virtuoso pieces by the same Italian triumvirate�?? plus three more composers in a similar vein�?? promoting confident, enjoyable sight-reading by guitarists of all levels. .
