"My pedagogical activities inspired me to compose the Hommages. The pieces were intended to be etudes or studies which students my use as supplementary material to the usual dry and mechanical - although indispensable - exercises. They contain various challenges. If performed with impressive dexterity, with proper tone production and sufficient knowledge of styles, coupled with a sense of humour and a certain amount of fantasy, they could - hopefully - find success even on the concert stage. .." - Bela Kovacs

This is certainly not a collection to play through from beginning to end. Hommage a Manuel de Falla is both difficult and exciting, though a bit over-long. One day I'll have a go at another one. Be warned though that some of these solo pieces are also available with a basic piano accompaniment, so check out if some of them are already in your music library.

These unaccompanied pieces are seriously challenging and mainly explore "national" styles. I have been working on "Manuel de Falla" which is exciting and dramatic. This book is a great for the "lockdown" as a piano is unnecessary, although I had already bought "Khatschaturian" as "Armenian Lament and Dance" with piano accompaniment, and several other accompanied Hommages seem to be available separately.
