About Daniel Gottlob Türk's 60 Pieces for Aspiring Players, Book 1

Türk wrote these two books of practical pieces to illustrate and accompany his monumental Clavierschule from 1789. Progressing from the simplest two-part pieces to more complex works practising various aspects of technique, the albums provide excellent teaching material for the early stages of playing.
