Commissioned by Richard Deering with funds provided by the Arts Council of Great Britain and first performed by him in October 1982 in Amsterdam. The title is the same as the Schoenberg ones of 1911 and like those pieces my title is something of an understatement. They are not musically or technically undemanding as the title may perhaps suggest. In my case these pieces were in a sense sketches for my larger scale Piano Sonata of the following year. Each piece has its own essential character, but all of them are linked in the use of common pitch material. There is more than a hint of parody in the mood of the music.

The 30 pieces contained within this tutorial are aimed exclusively at piano beginners. All pieces are easy to play and will enable you to rapidly gain substantial experience in piano playing and, since they are adapted versions of real musical pieces, you will at no time lose your pleasure of playing. In order not to overwhelm you, the level of difficulty of the pieces to be performed increases progressively, allowing you to work in a fluent and coherent manner. The piano pieces put together in this tutorial will also allow you to discover musical styles which are totally different from one another, forming a large panorama of contemporary and classic music. You will get a tasteof popular music, jazz, ragtime, blues and rock. So you can rest assured, there’s something for everyone in here(!) The CD attached to the book will make your study even more enjoyable. Every musical piece appears twice: the first time for demonstration purposes (with the piano) and the second in the form of a backing track (without the piano), in order to give you the opportunity to play the piano and enjoy the accompaniment of other musicians.
