The seven-piece collection, intelligently edited by expert teachers and pianists, gives young musicians precise directions, including detailed instructions for fingering, pedalling, dynamics, articulation, and metronome markings, all helping with the pupil’s interpretation and performance. Album for the Young is ideal for recitals and competitions for young pianists at late Elementary to Advanced levels.
