It is quite amazing that the piano works of the English composer Ethel Smyth had remained unpublished to this day. She wrote all of these pieces during her years of study in Leipzig, after 1877, when she met such illustrious figures as Brahms, Clara Schumann, Dvorak, Grieg and Tchaikovsky. It should come as no surprise that these musical giants left their stylistic traces in Ethel Smyth's piano oeuvre. Most of the pieces contained in this volume borrow their atmosphere and titles from Baroque models (dance movements, genre pieces) and are technically undemanding. They have been arranged in order of progressive difficulty.
