Also includes the first publications of \u003ci\u003eChabrieriana\u003c\/i\u003e a compact tribute to the Romantic French composer, Emmanuel Chabrier, and \u003ci\u003eSentimental Waltz\u003c\/i\u003e, a dedicatory piece to a friend. The previously-published \u003ci\u003eDedicace\u003c\/i\u003e is also included.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Edward B.
