Twenty-four Pieces for Children

Twenty-four Pieces for Children (also 24 Pieces for Children), Op. 25, is a 1936 romantic piano composition written in all twenty-four major and minor tonalities by Ukrainian pianist and composer Viktor Kosenko. Naturally treated with techniques of folk polyphony, it was published as Op. 15 in 1938, but later corrected by the publisher of his collection Musiczna Ukraina. It is still an obligatory set of compositions specifically for children learning the piano in conservatoires and piano schools across the country by holding a significant place in today's Ukrainian pedagogical repertoire as one of the most popular collections for children.
