Product description
The present collection consists of a number of petty compositions most of which are within easy reach by young pianists of an intermediate technical level. In a lot of compositions for pianoforte, Bohuslav Martinu has had himself inspired by children's world.
Bohuslav Martinů (1890-1959) was a Czech composer, violinist, pedagogue and music critic. His artistic development progressed from impressionism through neoclassicism, expressionism and jazz inspiration to a purely compositional style of his own. Stylistically, he is closest to the generation of neo-classicists such as Arthur Honegger, Béla Bartók and others.
