Product Description

5 pieces, 31 pages. Includes two NFMC 2024-2028 Bulletin selections for Popular Piano Solo category: Riding the Rails (level 2), Night on the Town (level 3). This piano suite teaches arm and wrist fluidity with each piece focusing on a different aspect of using elbow and wrist movements at the piano: drop-lift slurs, wrist rotation, wrist circles, side-to-side and in-and-out motions. Amy combines classical form with jazz language and sensibilities in these very fun pieces. Musically Amy takes the performer through her most-treasured childhood memories in Michigan and Ontario, exploring places like the Algoma Railway to Sault Ste Marie, performances in Detroit and Stratford, the waterfalls at Niagra-on-the Lake, the monarchs at Point Pelee, and harvest time in Chatham and Ann Arbor. This suite was awarded 1st place for Composers Today 2023. Great recital and competition pieces! Full performance video on YouTube and at www.amystephens.com.
