New song just released!
After receiving many requests for more early intermediate songs JoyTunes has added:
Sonatina in C Major (Op.36) By Muzio Clementi.
Although the song has 3 movements, they’ve added only the first movement and hope to add the other 2 soon!
You can find the piece in the Library under “Classical and Opera”.
The O’Connor Music Studio has several editions of Clementi’s Sonatinas available in the Lending Library.
