The 25 pieces in this collection represent some of the best miniature masterworks in the piano literature. These pieces were carefully selected not only for their overall quality and musicality, but because they advance very logically from the early intermediate pieces that preceded them in Pathways to Artistry: Masterworks, Book 2. For maximum benefit, students should work through the skills that are comprehensively presented in Pathways to Artistry: Technique, Book 3.
