The three nocturnes in this collection were selected because they are technically the easiest to play, and they should be quite accessible to most late-intermediate students. For teachers who are looking for pathway literature to the Chopin nocturnes, these three nocturnes by Field are not only an excellent introduction to the romantic style, but masterworks in their own right.

This four pieces group can be considered as a study of style. Somehow, one wonders the capacity to assimilate some musical languages that that appeared at the beginning of the XX century, in a very permissive tone concept. The music in each of them is explicit enough to expose this purpose. Stravinski should be, then, understood as an approach to the personal features of Stavinski and polytonality from an ironic and portrait perspective. The Nocturne is inspired on the spirit of the pieces of the Mikrokosmos of Bartok, at the same time that counts on the poetical contributions of the composer John Field for his contributions to the nocturne pianist genre. The Song for Anna seeks protection in the bright and transparent harmonies of Ravel, and the popular song Au claire de la lune is developed in a pentatonical scale and reminds of the harmonical treatment.
