Beach Young People's Carnival, Op. 25 For The Piano

The six programmatic movements in this suite depict the characters of early European pantomime, popular in America in the late 19th century: Promenade * Columbine * Pantalon * Pierrot and Pierrette * Secrets * Harlequin. Composed by American composer Amy Beach who had small hands, this suite is very effective for the early intermediate student.
