The five books of piano repertoire in ABRSM’s More Romantic Pieces for Piano series offer an ideal introduction to music from the Romantic period, featuring works by great names such as Chopin, Schumann and Debussy as well as pieces by lesser-known composers from this prolific period of piano writing.
