Product Description

Three Piano Pieces for Shira is a gift for my friends Matthew and Sarah's daughter, Whitney. I was thinking about how much Id love to teach her about music someday and got into listening to piano pieces written for young musicians that, though easier to play, dont compromise artistically. The Notebook for Anna Magdalena Bach, Schuberts and Tchaikovskys Albums for the Young, and Stravinskys Les cinq doigts (a personal favorite) were inspirations for my work here.

Though these three pieces are a probably a little tough for a two year old, and I have no idea if shell ever take up piano, I do hope that other young musicians will be able to get something out of them. They may be a good way to introduce advanced students to some of the techniques commonly used in modern music, such as mixed or phasing meters and spatial notation.

In any case I hope that Whitney enjoys listening. I enjoyed writing them.
