The focus is on fabulous repertoire in this late elementary book! The 10 engaging original solos make your recital choices easy, plus there are 3 all-time favorite arrangements: Peacherine Rag, Frankie and Johnny, and The Arkansas Traveler. A variety of styles–blues, lyrical waltzes, and rags by Kevin Olson, Kevin Costley, Valerie Roth Roubos, Timothy Brown, Lee Evans, Judith R. Strickland, David Karp and Melody Bober–keep students motivated. Easy syncopation, swing, use of pedal and dotted rhythms are a few of the new concepts in Book 3.
