As early as the age of four Mozart amazed his father with his quickness of mind as regards Piano-playing. The first works are easy dance movements by the five-year-old who developed with extraordinary speed. During his lifetime he created several Piano pieces apart from the sonatas and variations. The pieces from his youth most of them written down in the music book for Maria Anna Mozart and in the so-called London sketch book are mostly short dance movements but there are already lengthy individual movements as well. From the mid-1770s there are mainly larger individual works including fantasias and rondos which can stand as equals to the sonatas andvariations of the Viennese period.Volume 2 contains the mature works from the later years of composition including the popular fantasias and rondos as well as several sonata form drafts completed by comtemporaries of Mozart. In addition the present edition contains solo piano versions of the Concert Rondo K 382 the rondo from the Duo for Violin and Viola K 423 as well as the overture of the 'Abduction from the Seraglio'.

Keep the old but be generous with new. Fundamentally the editor of the New Sonatina Book has followed this principle. Therefore in the book are found sonatas for children which are almost classical as well as other works which have long been used successfully in teaching the piano but which are not found in previous collections such as for example the Vienna Sonatinas of Mozart which acquired fame so quickly in the new Schott edition the charming Spring Sonatina by Handrock some melodious compositions of Theodor Kirchner and as a contemporary work Gretchaninoff's Sonatina which has proved itself as a splendid display pieces for pupils' concerts.The collection isas far as possible arranged in order of difficulty but as frequently different movements of a work demand different levels of technique a completely logical sequence was not possible particularly as the individual talent of the pupil plays an important part. In order to acquaint pupils with polyphonic music some easy pieces by Handel Telemann Krebs and Max Reger (Canons) have been included. Kuhlau's Allegro from Sonatina in C is included in ARBSM Piano Grade 4 syllabus 2017-2018 as an alternative piece.
