Palmer, Willard A et al: First Sonatina Book

Such familiar works as Beethoven's "Sonatina in G" and Clementi's "Sonatina in C," Op. 36, No. 1 are balanced by the lesser-known sonatinas of Latour, Wanhal, Halsinger and Pleyel. Palmer's helpful edition includes a brief introduction to sonatina form and a short biography of each composer.
