Little is known of the genesis of the six pieces that comprise Nielsen's Op. 11; it is generally assumed, however, that they were written with his children in mind. The ink fair copy, which served as printer's manuscript for the publication, is end-dated 12 May 1897. See more about this work at The Royal Library
