More Romantic Pieces for Piano,Book 3

More Romantic PIeces for Piano, a five-volume, graded anthology, edited by Lionel Salter, explores the musical riches of this legacy, with works by such great composers as Chopin, Schumann, Mendelssohn, and Debussy, as well as delightful but unfamiliar pieces by the lesser-known. An ideal introduction to music from the Romantic period, the anthology has been carefully selected to cover a range of keys, time signatures and moods, and will provide invaluable practice and concert repertoire through the grades.

The pieces in this book are about Grade 5 in standard (Associated Board).
