Product Description
PRESENTATION
Welcome to this collection of compositions written between 2009 and 2023 for the students I taught during this educational period in cities such as London, Madrid, and Barcelona. These scores were custom-tailored and refined for the various types of piano learners that the current teacher finds in our society.
As you embark on this musical journey, you are about to experience a rich tapestry of melodies, textures, techniques and form to adhere to the standards of the classical piano school tradition while incorporating a modern and communicative harmonic and stylistic language to inspire and resonate with today's piano learners and enthusiasts alike. This audience ranges from children as young as seven years old to adults, with a particular focus on teenage students, many of whom often seek music that resonates with what they hear on TV, in cinema, video games, or on the radio.
This collection is designed to complement other methods, courses, books, or etudes. It serves as an alternative, offering short pieces that address numerous essential technical and expressive challenges inherent in the foundations of piano playing.
Thank you for choosing this book as your musical companion. Enjoy the music, and may it bring you endless joy and inspiration.
