Sor published the Six petites pièces faciles op. 32 (1828) soon after arriving in Paris after several years in Russia. The work op. 32 was dedicated to “Miss Wainwright” who Sor considered one of the most talented students he had ever had (as can be seen above in the fragment from the Sor's method). The work is organized in three pairs according to the tonalities with an andante preceding a dance: 1. Andantino and 2. Waltz (E major), 3. Andante pastorale and 4. Mazurka (D major) and 5. Andante and 6. Galop (G major). The first one (Andantino) brings to my mind the world of the composer's early minuets from the Spanish period and Waltz has an elegance of the European salons of the 1820s.
