Daniel Gottlob Turk (1750-1813), was responsible for the most influential keyboard tutor of its day, the monumental Klavierschule. He also wrote these two books of pieces to accompany it. Progressing from simple two-part pieces to more complex works practising various aspects of technique, the albums provide excellent material for early grades.
