Folksong

A landmark collection of Bartok's original compositions including 'For Children' (85 short pieces), 'Sonatina', 'First Term At The Piano', 'Five Bagatelles' and 'Three Folk Songs', this edition is arranged in progressive order of difficulty and is perfect repertoire for the young pianist.

Recognized as one of Spain's premiere composers and pianists, the Album For Piano highlights some of his best compositions for this instrument. 14 pieces featured are based on folksongs and dances of his homeland.

Jacob Ludwig Felix Mendelssohn - Bartholdy was born February 3, 1809. He grew up in an atmosphere of privileged wealth: what Harold Schonberg refers to as "...almost grim culture." His father, Abraham Mendelssohn, who was the son of the eminent philosopher Moses Mendelssohn, was an influential banker and played an important role in the social, intellectual and artistic city of Berlin. He married Lea Soloman, the granddaughter of one of Berlin's most affluent citizens. Their four children were given the finest education available. The atmosphere of their home was sophisticated, elite and enlightened and as a result they became singleminded and serious.
Many famous musicians, artists, philosophers, and literary figures of the day attended the Mendelssohn family's Sunday evening concerts. During these growing - up years Felix established friendships with Goethe and Hegel. Goethe's emphasis on the dynamic and productive aspects of art and Hegel's belief that "even in instrumental music the composer should devote equal attention to two aspects - musical structure, and the expression of an admittedly indeterminate content, "greatly influenced Mendelssohn's tendency toward the classical period's values of clear ideas and pure form.
