Variety lies at the core of 83 Classified Piano Solos published by Santorella Publications. It combines eighty-three songs from seven different genres to form an incredibly unique product. From Hymns to Marches, Waltzes to Folk songs and Classics to Boogie, 83 Classified Piano Solos has everything that a beginning piano student needs. Boredom is a major obstacle to learning which students and teachers have encountered. They have found it extremely difficult to maintain interest when using a single resource. Often, supplemental materials are needed to keep study interesting and exciting since it is nearly impossible to find adequately diverse books. This adds a significant and unnecessary financial burden on both parties. 83 Classified Piano Solos from Santorella Publications is different. This best-selling easy piano title eliminates the need for costly supplemental materials while exploring many composers in varied genres and keeping study fun and interesting. To take full advantage of the variety, we strongly urge that you jump around from section to section and explore all that 83 Classified Piano Solos has to offer. This Jonathon Robbins best seller from Santorella Publications includes a performance CD which serves as a great tool for the beginning student. He or she can listen to a performance of each piece performed at the appropriate tempos, dynamics and stylings, then emulate this during their own performance, practice or study sessions.

This series of easy piano music for teaching purposes presents pupils in the lower and lower middle grades with a carefully chosen selection of well-known and lesserknown compositions by important masters. The volumes are deliberately kept small in extent, since it is more stimulating for children to change the teaching material frequently. When the aspiring pianist has dealt successfully with the works of Frederic Chopin for the first time, he will have left the elementary level of instruction behind. The following selection of easy pieces also requires security of technique and capability of musical expression in order to enable the florid sound of Chopin's piano music to unfold. As much as works like the Prelude in D flat major or the Walz in A minor may tempt one to premature endeavours, a study of Chopin's music should not be attempted too early. In the following five Preludes, the two Valses and the Nocturne in G minor (six Mazurkas have been published in a separate folio), the editor has made a selection of pieces, which can be mastered by the pupil (with the exception of opus 28/15 and opus 28/20), even if a limited facility and finger stretch is present. Because of the finger stretch required for some chords, a different distribution of the hands has been indicated or simplifications have been suggested. An introduction to the Tempo rubato, taking style into consideration, is a task lying within teacher's responsibility. Indications for pedal use were added by the editor. Heinz Walter, Salzburg, Fall 1979.
