Tchaikovsky, Peter Iljitsch - Childrens Album op. 39

Childrens Album op. 39 - Collection of Easy Pieces for Children à la Schumann. Urtext on Cajkovskij. New Edition of the Complete Works op. 39

Tchaikovsky wrote his Childrens Album in the summer of 1878. Following the example of Schumanns Album für die Jugend, the 24 miniatures are not only technically easy to play but also directly related to the childrens world and thus ideally suited for music lessons. Based on the original text of the Tchaikovsky Complete Edition, this edition contains notes on fingering and interpretation which take piano education suitable for children into account.
