4.0 out of 5 stars Varied and interesting repertoire, February 28, 2011

This review is from: Nineteenth-Century European Piano Music: Unfamiliar Masterworks (Paperback)
Yet another worthy Dover anthology of solo piano works that has gone out of print, I feel fortunate to have picked up a used copy from an Amazon merchant for a very reasonable price.
No doubt the wide variety in repertoire is responsible for the variance in notation style from piece to piece; I personally find the Victorian-style typeface used in the Clementi, for example, somewhat annoying to read but others may not be bothered.

Here are the full contents:

Albeniz Espana Op.165 (6 pieces)
Arensky Etude Op.25/3
Backer-Grondahl Fantasistykker Op.45 (5 pieces)
Balakirev Scherzo 2 b fl
Bizet Variations chromatiques
Borodin Petite Suite (8 pieces)--more familiar in its orchestral version but all the more fun to play on the piano
Chabrier 5 Pcs for Piano:4 Ronde champetre
Chabrier Impromptu (1860)
Clementi Suite of 4 Pieces
Czerny Etude melodieuse Op.795:3
Czerny Song without words Op.795:1
Czerny Toccata in C Op.92
Dussek Sonata Op.70 A fl 'Le retour a Paris'
Dvorak Silhouettes Op.8 (6 pieces)
Faure Theme and Variations Op.73
Field Nocturne no.2 c
Field Nocturne no.4 A
Gade Arabeske Op.27
Granados Danzas Espanolas #s 1 C Allegro, 3 c minor.6 Rondalla aragonesa,10 G
Heller 3 German Dances
Heller Toccatina (1838)
Hummel Variations on a theme of Gluck Op.57
Moscheles Allegri di bravura Op.51:1
