Work Overview
These volumes address a serious artistic repertoire for beginning players, not just classical repertoire simplified.

The order of pieces included is not just for progression of difficulty, but for variety, challenge, inspiration as well. As the composer claims that this will always be contentious, it at least indicates roughly the intent behind the ordering of the collection
