A collection of miscellaneous pieces of similar difficulty to Burgmüller's 25 Etudes (Op. 100). Dedicated to Patricia Gronback. The collection is equally weighted between classical and popular styles. All pieces have a light and approachable character. While not overly demanding, they are also not too casual, making them a good opportunity for students accustomed to traditional lessons to experience popular tastes. They can be incorporated into daily lessons, and any favorite pieces could be performed at recitals. In 2005, a sequel with slightly increased difficulty, a collection of pieces with the same title (Momentos Book 2), was released.
