This is a pleasant little pairing of miniatures; musically, not likely to stretch the intellectual ability too much and technically quite suitable for the intermediate player. Lullaby for My Cat has a gently syncopated melody line floating over pianistic arpeggios. Any «cat' reference« in the music was, I'm afraid, lost on me, but it is nevertheless a nice, easy-listening piece. The Valse is a more up-tempo number and very French in style. A little bit more demanding technically, this once again has an attractive melody line which drops onto the bass strings mid-way through. Attractively presented, as usual from this publisher, this edition is well worth a second glance.
