An adventurous
collection for the late-elementary student that offers performance
pieces "with a challenge." These are especially appropriate
for recitals and other musical events, featuring an ancient Chinese
folk song, a gypsy dance by fire light, and a humorous blues piece.
These new solos by the Fabers provide settings in harmony, style, and
rhythm that explore the expressive and dramatic qualities of the
piano. Some titles are Festive Sonatina; Tijuana Tambourine;
Treasure Island; and The Phantom Complainer. Includes a CD
for both listening and play-along.

The "Technique
Secret" exercises presented in this book develop a technical
foundation, training the student in arm weight, slur gesture, light
thumb, and connected pedaling. The "Artistry Magic" page
focuses the student on forward motion, balance between the melody and
harmony, articulation, pedal effects, and "musical color."
Includes an appendix of elementary cadences. Illustrated.
