Book excerpt: These six intermediate-level sonatinas generally follow the traditional three-movement form (sonata-allegro, slow movement and rondo). Containing an excellent blend of Classical and Romantic period harmonies and lyric motives, the sonatinas lie well under the hands. A fresh alternative to Clementi's Sonatinas, Op. 36 and Diabelli's Sonatinas, Opp. 151 and 168.
