- Fiona Lau, Music Teacher Magazine, July 2018 issue (full review here)
"A useful tool for the absolute beginner... arranged in the most friendly manner possible to take players from the earliest levels to a standard that would make success in the Pre Grade 1... test a total certainty."
- EPTA Piano Journal
This book contains 36 well-known and well-loved pieces I've arranged for young pianists, including nursery rhymes, children’s songs and famous classical pieces. The difficulty progresses from complete beginner to prep test standard, divided into four parts: simple tunes for one hand; melodies shared between two hands; putting hands together and prep test standard pieces. Ideal learning material for beginners, students and teachers alike will love progressing through this book. Welcome to the start of your musical journey!
PDF version - £3.50. I can email you a PDF version for printing at home. Simply contact me and I'll let you know how to pay by Paypal or bank transfer.
