A collection of 8 characteristic pieces in predominantly romantic style, featuring a variety of dance types and tempos for the intermediate student. Dynamics, articulations and pedaling are carefully indicated to help students play with stylistic accuracy. Titles include Skulduggery, The Magician, Mazurka and Castle on the Rhine.

Early to Mid-Intermediate level. An inviting well-crafted collection of short musical sketches by composer/professor George Kiorpes. The pieces evoke events that take place every day, including a track meet (a cleverly disguised etude!), sunrise and sunset, a dance rehearsal and even a family quarrel. Excellent study or recital pieces.
