Petite Suite The Petite Suite, published in 1885, is Borodins major work for the Piano and originally comprised seven movements. Mr. Sauers arrangement incorporates three: Intermezzo, Rêverie and Sérénade. The Petite Suite was dedicated to the Belgian Countess Louise de Mercy-Argenteau, who was a supporter of Borodin and his music. After Borodins death in 1887, Glazunov orchestrated the Suite. The music has that "Eastern flavor" so indicative of Borodins melodies, mysterious, lyrical and subtle. Advanced performers will enjoy this work of almost seven minutes which has been so beautifully arranged by Mr. Sauer.
