Using mildly contemporary sounds and colorful pianistic effects, each song in this book is a vibrant sound picture that students will enjoy bringing to life in performance. While the pieces may be enjoyed simply for their poetic and music content, they are crafted in ways that help developing students master the musical and technical concepts needed to play standard impressionist and contemporary literature. This late-elementary level book features basic 5-finger patterns, easy rhythmic patterns (including 8th notes), and simple pedal use. 7 solos: Blues for a Count · Fanfare · Fiesta March · Mountain Sunrise · October's Farewell · Sand Swirls · Whoosh!.
