As a pupil of Beethoven and the teacher of Franz Liszt, he was a transmitter of ideas from one great master to another.

Book Description
Frederic Chopin (1810-1849) composed his great music under abstract titles such as: Preludes, Mazurkas, Berceuses, and Waltzes. Modern education advocates graphic descriptive captions that tell incidents: that is why Mr. Schaum has substituted historically interesting titles for the abstract terms. The original titles are always in parentheses. This wealth of true biographical information adds musical appreciation to these authentic Chopin excerpts.This newly engraved edition will be welcomed by teachers and students.

Book Description
In their original form most of the Haydn compositions are usable by only very gifted musicians. In compiling this book Mr. Schaum has kept in mind the ideal of democratizing Haydn's music by making his oratorios, cantatas, songs, and symphonies playable for the average pianist. Through changed titles, the pupil gains a historical background while the biographical additions add color and charm. Only dependable references were used for the biographical data, and, as far as is known, it is historically true. Book 1 is to be used with the Schaum B Book and Adult II. Book 2 is to be used with the Schaum F Book.
