Hello Klavieronin,

Can I suggest Villa-Lobos Cirandas or his Cirandinhas.
Also there are 11 books of works under the heading of Guia Pratico. (Short and really very good).

There is a set of 25 Preludes by Gliere which are very good works but seldom heard.

August Winding did a very good set of 24 Preludes also seldom heard, though
both these sets have been recorded. As have all the Villa-Lobos pieces.
Naxos records have done a great service with all of his piano music. All of the Guia Pratico have been done by them, plus all other works of his for solo piano.

Best wishes Liveforpiano.
Thanks for the suggestions. I did have both Cirandas and Cirandinhas on my short list but I'm not a big fan on the Guia Pratico (save for a few pieces). I'll definitely have to take a look at the Winding and Gliere preludes though. Thanks.

You may should have a look in Leo Orstein's music
There is a couple of miniature sets who could suit to your project (scores are on IMSLP)
Pygmy suite - Nine Miniatures - Memories from childhood ....

is anyone interested in collecting the rest? I can certainly do my part...
...just an update... I am working to fill some holes in Bohm's Op. 327 ... stay tuned!
