As far as can be ascertained, this set is without Opus number. The following quote probalby explains this. In 1897, at the request of the English publisher Novello, Rheinberger compiled a collection of six pieces for the series Village Organist and had these published as Six Short Pieces. He drew largely on older pieces for this, but also composed three new pieces. What resulted is a delightful group of little gems for worship or organ teaching, including a short character piece, Consolation'.
