Reproduced from authoritative sources, this modestly priced compilation presents favorite piano works of the Romantic era. Unlike many other anthologies of music from the period, which vary widely in the quality of their content, this collection features works of consistent excellence. Intermediate and advanced pianists will find these carefully chosen pieces a splendid representation of Romantic keyboard works.
Selections include Chopin's Ballade No. 1 in G Minor, Op. 23, as well as Fantasie-Impromptu in C-sharp Minor, Op. 66; Two Pieces from Tannhäuser and Lohengrin by Liszt; Rachmaninoff's Polichinelle from Morceaux de Fantaisie, Op. 3, No. 4 ("Punch"), and Sonata No. 1 in D Minor, Op. 28; and Schumann's Variationen über den Namen Abegg, Op. 1, and Studien nach Capricen von Paganini, Op. 3.
