Children's Piano, first series is a compilation of eight small pieces designed for the first courses of study of the instrument. It was published for the first time in 1918 by the publishing house Muntañola (although it already appears as "in press" in 1916 on the back cover of the Cançons amoroses, edited by A. Boileau Bernasconi). It had a very good reception from the public and critics, and there is evidence of a minimum of seven editions in the life of the composer: a select work with a prologue by Santiago Rusiñol, a dedication by Felip Pedrell, drawings by Pere Torné-Esquius and poems by Francesc Sitjà. The book was also translated into Spanish and in this language it was published in La victoria del corazón, the work of his son, J. M. Petit and Freixas.
The reedition that you have in your hands has been made using as a source the published works of Narcisa Freixas, Edició d'Homenatge of 1928. The original manuscripts are missing, according to the consultations and the affirmation of the composer's lance, Mrs. Magda Petit i Codina.
The desire of Narcisa Freixas to create a repertoire that would awaken the interest and imagination of children leads her to use melodies of a popular nature, with simple rhythm and harmonies with the basic tonal functions. Expressiveness is important, and the works are descriptive of different areas, situations and games of the world of childhood, which illustrate the precious poems and drawings that accompany each of them.
Technically, the hands are usually in a fixed position, with some displacement, but it does not restrict the use of the black keys and thus we find tonalities such as E major or E flat that reach up to four alterations.
With maximum respect for the source, only a few fingerings have been included, considering that it is a work for children, and some ligature of expression that was lacking and deducted from those included in the edition.
