Born in Germany, Friedrich Kuhlau established himself in Copenhagen as a pianist, composer and teacher. His Piano Sonatinas seem to have been intended either for teaching purposes or otherwise for the amateur market, combining a certain charm with clarity of texture and classical form. This collection forms a companion to Naxos 8.570709, which comprises the Sonatas, Op. 59, and Sonatinas, Op. 20.
