A collection of miscellaneous pieces, serving as a sequel to the 2003 work, Momentos. Similar to the previous work, the collection equally balances classical and popular styles. The difficulty level is higher than the previous work, comparable to Czerny's Op. 299 (School of Velocity), but all pieces have an approachable character, making them easy to tackle. Even the popular-style pieces are written to be played with a classical approach. This allows students who usually receive orthodox lessons to enjoy the popular taste without difficulty. It would be beneficial to incorporate these into daily lessons, and if a piece is particularly liked, it could be performed at a recital.
