Character Pieces in Romantic Style, Book 1

Character pieces emerged during the Romantic period as a personal form of musical expression, differing from the larger sonatas of the Classical era. This collection features carefully graded pieces for late elementary to early intermediate students, showcasing a variety of moods, from bold and energetic to lyrical and introspective. Each title, such as "Gentle Ocean Waves" and "Reflection," suggests its unique emotional landscape, inviting students to explore a rich range of musical expression.
