English Piano Music, 1780-1800 by Timothy Roberts
In the closing decades of the 18th century London played a leading role in the development of the piano, and native English composers were active in writing simple pieces to cater for a public that increasingly regarded piano-playing as an essential social grace. This anthology is drawn from some of the many publications that were printed to meet this demand.
'A thoroughly commendable editionWell recommended.' Music Teacher '....it is rescued from triviality by its inherent modesty, grace and frequent cleverness. Roberts' fine edition serves it well.' Piano Quarterly '..several of the works,....,contain less formulaic rhythm and harmony and are worthy additions to intermediate repertoire.' Clavier
