Piano Solo - Intermediate

This sonatina is special in that it starts in the typical sonatina style in four-four time but then adds a romance section at the end in six-eight time. It is basically two songs in one. This lesson starts with a full demonstration of the Sonatina followed by a detailed all-audio lesson teaching the entire song without music, print or video. When you learn "by ear" you learn faster and you memorize the piece while learning it.
