Par MC GREGOR JOANNA. The 'Unbeaten Tracks' series has made a profound mark on the music world with its volumes of specially commissioned pieces for intermediate-level players. The eight pieces in this volume are written in a kaleidoscopic mix of styles by some of today's most talented composers and are undoubtedly destined to become standard repertoire. There are also small 'Biopics' about each composer. These give titbits of information about the composer's inspiration and intention for their piece and offer musicians a greater insight into the music. / Niveau : Assez Facile / Recueil / Piano

These diverse and entertaining solos are 'character pieces' that create a mental picture of a particular scene or episode. Students will find it easy to relate to the 'picture title' of each solo in order to determine its mood, style, and tempo. By interjecting their own musical ideas (such as dynamics, lyrics, rubato, etc.), students will enjoy using their imagination to help make each scene or episode even more colorful and descriptive. These pieces will inspire students to become more thoughtful and expressive musicians. Book 2 includes 10 pieces for the intermediate pianist. / Piano
