Romance, Op. 24, No. 9 by Jean Sibelius (1865-1957). Edited by Maurice Hinson. For Piano. Masterworks; Piano Solo; Solo. Alfred Masterwork Edition. 20th Century; Masterwork; Romantic. SMP Level 9 (Advanced). Sheet. 8 pages. Published by Alfred Music Publishing (AP.3602).

This beautiful character piece in D-flat Major was written in 1903 but is still an excellent example of 19th Century romanticism, with rolling right hand chordal accompaniment over a cello-like "expressivo" melody. The piece becomes fairly challenging in its later sections, with octave and cadenza work. Biographical and performance notes are included.

Perfect except for the fingering

The fingering indications are quite sparse, which may not be ideal for less advanced students.
