Czechoslovakia has a rich and diverse heritage of folk-tunes many of which have a vigorous quality that is particularly attractive to young pianists. These fifty-two pieces are selected from a volume of one hundred by the distinguished Czech composer Petr Eben originally published in Prague. The tunes are given simple but inventive arrangements which often illustrate their descriptive titles. They are carefully graded (Grades 1-3) progressively introducing new technical elements. Petr Eben born in South Bohemia in 1929 has pursued a notable teaching career at Charles University Prague alongside his principalactivities as composer and pianist.
