17 pieces from various opus sets in progressive order. Kabalevsky often quoted Russian writer Maxim Gorky that books for children should be “the same as for adults, only better.” In one volume the miniature masterpieces that Kabalevsky composed for piano students have been grouped by level of difficulty, drawn from various sets. The composer believed that “no piece of music, however short and modest, should pass by a child without touching his mind and heart.” Contents: Prelude in A minor, Op. 5, No. 1 • Sporting Game, Op. 14, No. 2 • Etude in A minor, Op. 27, No. 3 • A Little Prank, Op. 27, No. 13 • Lyric Piece, Op. 27, No. 16 • Fairy Tale, Op. 27, No. 20 • The Chase, Op. 27, No. 21 • Novelette, Op. 27, No. 25 • Prelude in C Major, Op. 38, No. 1 • Prelude in D-flat Major, Op. 38, No. 15 • Slow Waltz, Op. 39, No. 23 • Dance Variations on a Russian Folk Song, Op. 51, No. 2 • Seven Cheerful Variations on a Slovakian Folk Song, Op. 51, No. 4 • Rondo-Song, Op. 60, No. 3 • Rondo-Toccata, Op. 60, No. 4 • Prelude and Fugue in G Major, Op. 61, No. 1 • Naughty Boys, Op. 88, No. 6.
