Summary/Abstract: Composed in 1944, the Nostalgic Songs-Dynamic Studies op. 27 by Constantin Silvestri is considered one of his most valuable piano piece. The three songs are short and can be classified in the miniature genre. They do not have a suggestive title, the composer simply number them I, II and III, together forming the cycle Nostalgic Song with the subtitle Dynamic Studies. The subtitle Dynamic Studies reflects the concept of these piano pieces. The dynamic indications are numerous and very fine graded. That’s why Silvestri published together with them a dynamic scale where he manage to sort different types of dynamic and indications including tempo, pedal and accents. The cycle Nostalgic Songs-Dynamic Studies represents a great research in terms of dynamics.
