Piano Adventures: Gold Star Performance, Level 2B

(Faber Piano Adventures ). An adventurous collection for the late-elementary student that offers performance pieces "with a challenge." These are especially appropriate for recitals and other musical events, featuring an ancient Chinese folk song, a gypsy dance by fire light, and a humorous blues piece. These new solos by the Fabers provide settings in harmony, style, and rhythm that explore the expressive and dramatic qualities of the piano. Titles include Festive Sonatina * Tijuana Tambourine * Treasure Island * and The Phantom Complainer. Includes a CD for both listening and play-along.
