Journeys Piano Series
Journeys is a six-part series of graded solo piano repertoire written to help learners expand musically and technically into new areas.
Each album contains a wide variety of genres and moods; the series also features music from different cultures around the world. This diversity will encourage the learner to journey into unfamiliar territory, exploring new ideas and learning new musical techniques.
The 30 varied pieces in this volume include folk songs, sea shanties, pop songs, and concert pieces.
Praise for Journeys
“Taken as a whole, this ambitious series can be warmly recommended for the range of musical styles included, the care taken over the presentation, and the wealth of new music it adds to the intermediate-to-early-advanced pianist’s repertoire.”
Andrew Eales, pianodao.com
“The pieces are real gems! They will be a valuable addition to any student library and I think they are also perfect ‘studies’ for students, students of ANY age, as all the pieces feature important piano technique, introduce students to a wide variety of styles and are musically so very lovely and exciting. There is something for everyone.”
Beate Neblett, Pianist and Teacher, CT
