This volume offers performance pieces for the more advanced classes in music schools, at the same time allowing a glimpse into the 19th-century music scene. Piano pieces have been arranged from popular compositions of the period - operas, orchestral and chamber music works. These are not simply piano transcriptions but genuine works for the piano, written by famous composers and pianists of the time.

Dieser Band bietet nicht nur Stücke für die höheren Klassen der Musikschule, sondern verschafft uns gleichzeitig einen Einblick in die musikalische Sichtweise des 19. Jahrhunderts. Aus einigen populären Werk-auschnitte der Periode - Opern, orchestrale und Kammermusikstücke - entstanden einfache Klavierstücke. Sie sind nicht nur bloß Klavierauszüge, sondern echte Klavierwerke. Ihre Urheber waren renommierte Komponisten und Pianisten ihrer Zeit.
