Tre Genrestykker

Three Genre Pieces

Drei Genrestücke

HartW 69
JPEW III/1 no. 9

Composition: 1840.

These three pieces were composed as individual pieces which subsequently were joined, aiming at a collection of all three pieces to be published with the opus number 26. Hartmann sent them to Hofmeister in Leipzig, but the latter returned them because he found that there was not really any room for them on his programme and, furthermore, he found them a bit dry. Therefore the three pieces remained unpublished and the opus number 26 was transferred to "Introduction and Andantino religioso" (HartW 70), which was actually published by Hofmeister in August 1840.

Instrumentation: pf.pianoforte (piano)
