Alfred Essential Keyboard Repertoire, Volume 1 – Comb Bound

Essential Keyboard Repertoire, Volume 1 is an early-intermediate piano collection featuring 100 selections in their original form, spanning repertoire from the Baroque period through modern works. Edited by Lynn Freeman Olson, the collection includes minuets, folk dances, character pieces, sonatinas and other graded keyboard literature selected for both musical development and student appeal.

Published as part of the Alfred Masterwork Edition: Essential Keyboard Repertoire series, this edition uses a practical comb binding that allows the book to lie flat on the music stand during lessons, practice and performance.

100 Early-Intermediate Piano Selections

Volume 1 contains 100 carefully graded selections drawn from several centuries of keyboard literature. The repertoire includes works by composers such as Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert, Bartók, Kabalevsky, Gurlitt, Burgmüller and others.

Original-Form Repertoire

The selections are presented in their original form, offering students exposure to authentic keyboard literature rather than simplified arrangements. Alfred describes the collection as spanning the Baroque period through the present day.

Early-Intermediate Level

Alfred classifies Volume 1 as Early Intermediate, making it suitable for developing pianists progressing into standard classical and pedagogical repertoire.

Lay-Flat Comb Binding

The comb-bound format allows the 144-page book to remain open more easily on a piano or keyboard music stand, providing convenient page access during study and performance.
