About this piece

A calm, singing piece in C major with a steady chordal accompaniment; the tune needs careful shaping.

Number 13 of the 25 Easy and Progressive Studies, Op. 100 (1851), written for students of the piano.

The notes come from the Mutopia Project's typesetting, taken from the source “Collection Litolff, 19th Century” (Mutopia piece 224, licence: Public Domain); we converted them to MusicXML and checked them against Mutopia's MIDI file, note for note.

About this score

This is the complete piece, not an excerpt. The notes were converted from the Mutopia Project's public-domain typesetting of Consolation (piece 224, typeset from the source “Collection Litolff, 19th Century”; licence: Public Domain) and checked against Mutopia's MIDI file, note for note (repeats included). The score is the same music in a different file format; we dedicate our conversion to the public domain (CC0 1.0). Mutopia Project page
