The Opus 210 by Louis Kohler is a delightful collection of 32 pieces ranging from very easy to medium-difficult. Kohler like many of his contemporaries Robert Schumann Peter Tchaikowsky and later Claude Debussy wrotecollections of character pieces for beginning students to play. The pieces in this collection are lighthearted in spirit with simple harmonic progressions and straight- forward rhythms. They can be categorized as characterpieces (short pieces with programmatic titles) which are typical of the Romantic period. Not only do the pieces provide opportunities to stimulate creativity and imagination within each individual player they also provideexcellent oportunities to build technique musicality and rhythmic skills from the very beginning. Kohler proves that one can build technical skills and musicianship skills while at the same time enjoying the music. Thepieces are not overly difficult or lengthy which adds to their charm.

The contemporary style of the music is tuneful and light making the featured pieces both fun and interesting to play and fingerings have been carefully considered for accuracy and ease of facility. 'PaulColes brings to these studies his combined skills as composer guitar player and teacher and sets out a clear technical and musical route map for the student to achieve excellent results.More than plain studies he uses a pleasing and up-to-date musical language. Here are some pieces with catchy melodies jazzy harmonic turns and foot-tapping rhythms.I am sure they will inspire the student to learn and enjoy at the same time an ideal combination.' - Carlos Bonell International guitarist arranger and teacher
