Known for his large-scale compositions,Leonard Bernstein also wrote for hisown instrument, the piano.The sequence of four Anniversaries,published between 1944 and 1989,are brief, deftly evocative vignetteswritten to celebrate his many friends,colleagues and family members.The early Piano Sonata is imbued withyouthful self-confidence, and explorescertain compositional techniques towhich he was to return in more matureworks.The rhythmically incisive Music forthe Dance No. II is another importantearly work.
